TRANSFORMING LIVES WITH THE TRUTH OF GOD'S WORD

(Scroll Down for the Latest News)

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.

************************
FYI

SALVATION: Not only to Eternity in Heaven, but from Eternity in Hell! You MUST, first of all: Humble yourself and Admit You Are a Sinner in Need of a Savior:

•James 2:10 “For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles on one (point), he has become guilty of all.”

•Romans 3:23 “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.”

•Romans 6:23 “For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

Accept God’s Love through the/Sacrifice in His Son Jesus
•Romans 5:8 “But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.”

Turn to God in Repentance
•Acts 20:21 “I have declared to both Jews and Greeks that they must turn to God in repentance and have faith in our Lord Jesus.”

Trust the Fullness Jesus Christ!
•Romans 10:9 “…if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved;”

•Romans 10:13 “For whoever appeals to God through the Name of the Lord Jesus, the Son, 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?

•Romans 10:17 “So then Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God.”

•Jeremiah 29:13 “You will seek Me (God) and find Me when you seek Me with all your (being) 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!

Now Available through Amazon.com.
Click here to order.

Dr. William Perry is a prolific writer of outstanding books. His titles for Newburgh Press thus far are Christians Helping Christians, Christian Counseling for the 21st Century and Theology for the 21st Century. Each book is a must for every reader of solid Christian material.
I am happy to endorse Dr. Perry’s latest treasure, “A Journey Through The Gospels.” Every student and preacher/teacher of the Bible needs this book for the desk or the bedside table. You will enjoy reading insights  and valuable lessons that many casual readers of the Bible will miss.

While this book is not lengthy you will find a delightful study of each gospel that will make you appreciate the wonderful gospel stories and love Jesus even more.
To God be the glory!

  1. Hello PB

    Can We Trust God?.... Yes ... In fact He is altogether trustworthy.
    Numbers 23:19

    I am so thankful the call is still going out and I pray those who can
    hear the call will heed it. The call to life everlasting demands our
    full attention. John 14:6

    What does it mean to follow Jesus? I have taught it takes a DBR D =
    Death B = Burial R = Resurrection.

    That was a great way to teach about a sin against who ..... The King of
    kings

    Keep Preaching on PB

  2. Evenin’ Pastor,



    Thanks. So good to get a positive report on Fred! God answers prayers!

    I found the books and already sent off the alternative text form for “Profile of a Preacher”. It looks great.



    Thanks for your friendship, mentorship and encouragement.

  3. We are starting to see some patches of green coming out on the hillsides, we had a warm week, so I guess Spring is getting closer. I really do like the way you tell it out-right, about what the Bible has to say about life, love, relationships, and SIN! Good teaching Pastor

    Good message on God's Love- we loved it, I loved it. You hit home with the sin message, followed up with Can we trust God. Of course we can,but many don't. I believe many want to trust God, but their human condition makes it hard.

    We went fishing last Sunday, and we should have been in church. All I could think of was what I will hear when we get home, your message on e-net. PS/ we didn't catch much of anything, but a few mosquito bites. Your message convicted me!!

  7. Can we trust God? Yes we can, and we must, but what we hear often don't lead us to that conclusion. We need this hard core teaching, the kind that we can't misunderstand- keep them coming
