Springfield Education Rulebook Changes
(Springfield, VT) Just this past Monday night, the Springfield Board met to vote on a new rule book change to the school that hasn't been revised in over 20 years.
Superintendent Max Schmidt reported that the enrollment for the meeting was 17 more than expected. He also said that negotiations with the Maintenance Workers Union would be meeting next week.
Schmidt presented the board with a revision in the school manual saying it is time for a change considering the last revision hadn't taken place since 20 years ago.
Some of these changes would allow students to drive their vehicles, carry their cell phones, and wear their hair in any length. Other changes would be that teachers could not use physical punishment on students, and teachers must report all violations of school policy to the building principal. But not everyone was happy with this idea of a revision. Board member Janet bliss said, "These rules were good enough for my generation; they're good enough for the students now."
The board later voted 5-2 in favor of the new manual. Student Body President Ryan Rodriguez said he welcomed the school board to the 21st century.
THE BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST
ReplyDeleteWithout Jesus shedding His blood on the cross, all doctrines concerning salvation become irrelevant.
Hebrews 9:22 ....without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness.
Hebrews 10:19 Therefore, brethren, since we have confidence to enter the holy place by the blood of Jesus,
Are men saved because of God's grace? Yes. (Ephesians 2:8) Grace would not be available if not for the shed blood of Jesus.
Did Jesus sanctify and cleanse the church by the washing of water with the word? Yes. (Ephesians 5:26) The church cannot and is not sanctified except for the fact that Jesus shed His blood.
Hebrews 13:12 Therefore Jesus also, that He might sanctify the people through His own blood, suffered outside the gate.
Do sinners have to repent and be immersed in water to have sins forgiven? Yes. (Acts 2:38)Without Jesus shedding His blood on the cross, repentance and baptism for forgiveness of sins would not be accessible to mankind.
Romans 5:9 Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through Him.
Did Jesus add the repentant baptized believers to His church?Yes. (Acts 2:38,41,47) Without the shed blood of Jesus there would be no church of Christ to be added to.
Acts 20:28 Be on guard for yourselves and for all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church of God which He purchased with His own blood.
Are we saved because we confess that Jesus is Lord and that God raised Him from the dead? Yes. (Romans 10:9-10) This confession would be meaningless if Jesus had not shed His blood.
Revelation 1:5 and Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To Him who loves us and released us from our sins by His blood---
WHY AND HOW ARE WE SAVED?
We are saved because of God's grace. (Ephesians 2:8)
We are saved because of our faith. (John 3:16)
We are saved by confessing Jesus Christ. (Romans 10:9-10)
We are saved because we are immersed in water. (Mark 16:16)
We are saved because we repent of sins and turn toward God. (Acts 2:38)
AT THE POINT OF WATER BAPTISM, THE BLOOD OF JESUS WASHES AWAY MEN'S SINS, MEN ARE BORN OF THE SPIRIT, MEN BECOME BORN AGAIN, MEN ARE SAVED, THE LORD ADDS THE FORGIVEN TO HIS CHURCH.
WITHOUT THE SHED BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST, SALVATION WOULD BE UNATTAINABLE!
