Men Prepare Sermons; God Prepares Men

2nd Timothy 2:15

"The proper place for a ship to be is in the water, but if the water gets into the ship, the ship will sink. The proper place for the church is in the world,

BUT IF THE 'WORLD' GETS INTO THE CHURCH,

THE CHURCH WILL GO DOWN IN DISGRACE!"

Thank you for taking the time to view our blog;we look forward to reading your comments. DVDs of our services are available upon request. We covet your prayers and friendship. In His Service and For His Glory, Pastor Bill & Kathy ...
"Now fear the Lord and serve Him with all faithfulness...But if serving the LORD seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve...But as for me and my household, we will serve the LORD."-Joshua 24:14-15

Is God Calling You to be a Pastor?

The right kind of education is essential to the man who has answered God's call. No army dare send a soldier into battle without proper training. The results would be devastating, not only for the warrior, but for the war.

January 15

Preaching that turns the tide

It was J. Sidlow Baxter who said: "Tame and spiritless preaching, common place performances on Sunday, will not break the spell of six days of excitement and influence. We require a Whitfield, or a Wesley, sons of thunder, the spirit of Luther to rebuke this materialistic and utilitarian age. Nothing is more indecent, than a dead preacher, preaching to dead sinners, the living truth of the living God. We should preach as if we’d never preach again....as a dying man to dying men."

It is a great historical collection of all ofthe seemingly impossible feats that God has accomplished. I believe thismessage belongs in a text book. Very good. The tie looks nice. I am glad itworked as far as matching with clothes you had.

  3. I suspect if we don't turn the tide with our preaching, we will only prolong the misery of this nation.

    You both are looking as if the warmer weather agrees with you.....
    God's Best on you Both.
