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.

MERRY CHRISTMAS

YOUR FIRST CHRISTMAS  CARD FOR 2014

 

T'was 2 months before Christmas


When all through our land,

Not a Christian was praying

Nor taking a stand.

 

Why the PC Police had taken away

The reason for Christmas


no one could say.


 

The children were told


by their schools not to sing


About

Shepherds & Wise Men & Angels & things

It might hurt people's feelings,

the teachers would say

December 25th is just a 'Holiday'  !!

 

Yet the shoppers were ready


with cash, checks and  credit


Pushing folks down to the floor just to get it!

CDs from Madonna, an X BOX, an I-Pod

Something was changing, something quite odd!

 

Retailers promoted Ramadan and Kwanzaa

In hopes to sell books by Franken & Fonda.

As 'Targets'

were hanging their trees upside down

At Lowe's the word Christmas - was nowhere to be  found.


At K-Mart & Staples & Penny's & Sears

You won't  hear the word Christmas;


it won't touch your ears.


 

Inclusive, sensitive and

Di-ver-is-ty

Are words that were used to intimidate me.

 

Now   Daschle, Now   Darden,


Now   Sharpton,  Wolf Blitzen


On   Boxer,    on   Rather,


on   Kerry,    on   Clinton !


 

At the top of the Senate,


there arose such a clatter


To eliminate Jesus, in all public matter.

 

And we spoke not a word,


as they took away our faith


Forbidden to speak of salvation and grace

 

The true Gift of Christmas


was exchanged and discarded

The reason for the season

stopped before it started.


 

So as you celebrate


'Winter Break' under your 'Dream Tree'


  Sipping your Starbucks,


LISTEN TO ME ! ! !


 

Choose your words carefully,


choose what you say


 

Shout


 

MERRY CHRISTMAS,


 

not Happy Holiday !

 

Please

all Christians

Join together & wish everyone you meet


 

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Christ is The Reason


for the Christ-mas Season!
