PUB RESTORED INTO A CHURCH - Salem Danville, Pretoria, South Africa

FROM PUB TO CHURCH

Salem Danville's first service was under a carport on the 1st of March 2009 with 6 people. We started because the people of Danville spoke a need of a Biblical, relevant and alive church.

In December of 2009 we took over an old pub in Danville and renovated it into our church - a miracle done by God! Today we minister to about 100 people, 30 teenagers and 60 children.
Danville is a poor area in Pretoria West, South Africa - unique in a sense that there is poor people of all cultures and races.

Our vision - to bring His Peace and restoration to the people of Danville. To show them that your circumstances do not dictate God's love for you. Jesus loves all, no matter who you are, what you've done, or how much money you have!

Share the joy of ministering to the poor with us in this blog!

Getting to a place with no sun and moon


This week we’ve been talking allot about death… And in some way, one should think it would leave you depressed and hopeless.

We have however seen that through death you can get to heaven, a place that is very real. It shines with the glory of the Lord and sparkles like a precious stone, the gates are made of pearls and the streets of gold. It seems like something to look forward to.

There are a couple of other interesting points about heaven that the Bible speaks about:

The city has no need of sun or moon, because of this glory of God and the light of the Lamb are present. And the gates never close because its inhabitants have nothing to fear. In fact, no evil can enter through its gates. Instead, only those whose names are entered in the Lamb’s Book of Life have a ticket to heaven.

I think there is much more God can reveal to us about heaven, but He just gives us a small glimpse. Maybe because it is more important for Him that you should know how to get to this place that does not need a sun or a moon!

There is only one door you can take into this wonderful place:

John 14:6(AMP)
6Jesus said to him, I am the Way and the Truth and the Life; no one comes to the Father except by (through) Me.

Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Life. He is the door to the place where there is no sun or moon!

Enter through Him and know that you are on the right Way to the door of heaven!

Shalom!
