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.

COMMENT FROM AN INTERNET CONTRIBUTOR: "HEY PASTOR BILL, YOU SOUND LIKE YOU HAVE AN AGENDA WHEN YOU PREACH!"  

YOU BET I DO!  (BUT ONLY ONE!) To teach the Truth! To teach that all roads do not lead to Heaven. Only the narrow road, that leads to repentance! Through Obedience to following Jesus Christ as Lord. All other roads lead to hell and destruction (John 8:32).

PRAYER REQUESTS AND PRAISE REPORTS
.

Pray for Chum:   Chum had his last radiation yesterday.  He has been feeling the side effects, nausea, etc.  He starts Chemo next Tuesday.  We are both exhausted, mentally and physically.  It's so hard to see him not feeling well.  Hope he starts feeling better.  Prayers for continued healing and that the treatments work, and ALL the Glory will go to The Lord Jesus Christ! Amen!.

Pray for Michele:  Michele is healing well from her surgery.  We are thanking God for that.
.
Pray & Praise for 14 year old Hope:  Thank you for your prayers for Hope!!  God is answering!  

Pray for: The many in and around Valley Farms who do not know the Lord as their Lord and Savior,

Pray for Our son Eric: Eric sent us this update.  I'm not sure if the medicine is really working.  If it is, it's working very slowly.  I'm going to schedule a visual test in the upcoming weeks to see if anything has changed.  I ordered a hearing that can be configured based on my last auditory exam.  I thank everyone for their prayers.  

Pray for: The many in our families and in our community who are caught up in the cult of MormonismPray their eyes would be opened to the truth of the True Christ. That Christians would see the area in and around Valley Farms as a wide open MISSION FIELD.

PRAY: The Church would not give in to the pressure from the world for Spiritual Correctness, (that is, not confronting the make-believer who claims to be believers), yet they continue in their disobedience, as if the Lord has given them a License to Sin! HE HAS NOT! (1 John 2:19). Pray that the Church would be Strong,  yet compassionate in their confrontation.

Pray for:  OUR PRESIDENT and VICE PRESIDENT,  THEY NEED THE LORD'S HELP!!  

Pray that: All who are attending the Community Christian Church, as well as all who have ever attended- The Lord Jesus knows who you are, and He knows your needs. We pray that He will meet your every need. If your need is Salvation, and you have not yet accepted the Lord's invitation to join His family of believers by being born again, I pray that today will be the day you make that decision..

Pray that: All who know Jesus as Lord and Savior would start to live as if they do, and  will be willing to pay the one debt we owe for our Salvation; that is the debt of LOVE (Romans 13:8)! 

Pray: That all men who are called into the pastorate would know the need to study to gain advanced Training into a deeper and broader  understanding of the HolBible (2 Timothy 2:15)

Pray for: Pastor Bill as he teaches God's Word (1 Timothy 2:2). Also that the congregation would encourage him, and continue to love and encourage one another ( John 13:34).

PRAY FORThe Community Christian Church's' 20 years of service  to Teaching God's Word Without Compromise coming up in November 2017

      Very good lead in to, I'm sure, will be an overall great message. It sure did bring me back to considering my conscience. 20 years ago I would not even watch on TV programs that I can almost think of as OK. Keep-um coming.

    8. That is great how they celebrate the retired veterans. I am glad it went well. I am sure it was painful for everyone. Very sad to see loved ones go. But when you put in the positives of his life that helps bring some comfort to those that need it.

    10. Hello PB - that was a touching memorial for your brother.
      We keep Eric in our prayers for answers to his health.
      PB, I am thankful you have such a good accountability system with others, but as you said - only God knows the heart.
      Good advice to all who are seeking to be Holy.
      Watch our steps...others are.
      Be blessed my friend,

    11. I saw some of the pictures you sent, glad the Navy did something good for Uncle Chuck. These cults are a dangerous thing, meddling with that stuff is very dangerous. One can convince themselves it is truth, and make irrational decisions based on that.

      Many will stand before the throne when it’s time to separate sheep from goats and be shocked, thinking they were saved according to their altered faith…
