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.

IS THERE A BIBLICAL PRESCRIPTION TO MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN? YES! ONE AND ONLY ONE. IT'S FOUND IN 2nd CHRONICLES 7:14; "IF MY PEOPLE WHO ARE CALLED BY MY NAME WILL HUMBLE THEMSELVES, AND PRAY AND SEEK MY FACE, AND TURN FROM THEIR WICKED WAYS, THEN I WILL HEAR FROM HEAVEN, AND WILL FORGIVE THEIR SINS AND HEAL THEIR LAND." 

*********************************************


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).

WHY REACH OUT AND MINISTER TO MEN?

  • THE LORD S CALLING FAITHFUL MEN TO LEAD THEIR FAMILIES!

    Romans 10:13 “For whoever calls on the Name of the Lord shall be saved.”

    Romans 10:14 “How then shall they call on Him Who they have not believed?  And how shall they believe in Him of Whom they have not heard?  And how shall they hear without a preacher?

    Jeremiah 29:13 “You will seek Me (God) and find Me when you seek Me with all your heart.”

    It may not be easy to give up your old sinful ways, and turn in faith to Jesus Christ; but it is the only way to  SALVATION,  AND IT IS WORTH IT! 

     CALL UPON (THE FULLNESS OF) THE NAME OF JESUS AND YOU WILL BE SAVED!

    2. Hello Bill,
      Took time to sit and listen to your message tonight after church. This month may be our last month having Sunday evening services - older folks just don't seem to want to get out in the winter at night.
      The apostle Paul walked in close intimacy with the Lord and writes as one blessed man who knew it.
      So many today live as if Jesus is still in the tomb and the resurrection power is not available.... how sad.

      The word causative that you used, is that like if and then?

      I am so thankful that The Lord touched my mind like the demoniac in Mark 5:15 ....... It is so good to know that God loves us
      For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. 2 Timothy 1:7.
      Biblical Predestination is a Beautiful thing and it does bring much rejoicing.

      Thank You for sharing

    4. Good morning Pastor Bill and the Missus. It is a cold one up here in the North country, The frost is on the Pumpkin, and every thing else that is not covered up. But enough about that. The message is right on point. I am looking forward to going through it with the family and crew. We will print out the Fill In The Blanks, and do sort of a Bible study after the message. I'm sure this will be a great turn out, after all it's COLD OUTSIDE :)
