And Then Some

12/30/2018

 
When I was in sales, I remember a slogan that a customer had posted behind a counter.  It read “And Then Some”.  I asked what it meant.  They said we are going to do everything we can to please you, and then some.
 
A great slogan!  I began to think what if we would all use this slogan in the coming New Year.  Would it make any difference?
 
1. What if we would be more interested in presenting the Gospel (Good News) to others, “And Then Some”?  We are working on starting a Neighborhood Bible Study (NBS) where we would meet on a regular basis with friends in our homes (more on this later).  Our Lord Jesus has commissioned us to take the Gospel into all the world.  Are we?
 

2. What if we were more concerned about helping to edify our brethren, “And Then Some”?  Edification is much needed to help to stay build up in the Lord.  We need to be like Barnabas, who was a great encourager! 

3.  What if we were more committed to helping others less fortunate than we, “And Then Some”?  The Bible says Jesus went about doing good (Acts 10:38).  Most of us have plenty, and then some.  God has always been concerned with the poor of this world.  Are we?
