Shearer Facts ... by Carl Shearer IT’S A FACT . . . THAT thousands have said some time in their lives. “I wish I could begin again.” The Apostle Paul did. Burdened by guilt and a vivid memory of the devastation he made of Christ’s church before his conversion he wanted to begin again. You see it in his statement in Phillipians 3:13. “Forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.” In Christ He began again. Here’s the formula. First: he said, forget the past. This is not easy, but it is easier than allowing the past to ruin the future. Second: Strain forward to what lies ahead. Some translate it “Do my best to reach what is ahead.” Third: Set a worthy goal. He began anew. So can you in Christ. We invite you to the Milford Christian Church.
