good morning all and i hope it has been a good week-end so far for you..things are going well here in fl. although we do have a cold front and rain but it could be a lot worse..remember those in need of prayer and pray for one another, we all need prayer..
[/align]Father we thank you for another opportunity to study thy Word ans i pray it will be of hlp to someone today..we love you and thank you for all you do in Jesus name i pray,Amen,
"But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them; And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works." 2 Timothy 3:14-17
All Scripture in it's original form has been breathed out by God so that a writer, under the power of the Holy Spirit of God, wrote the Scriptures exactly as God would have them written..Yet many preachers today are preaching a different gospel than John The Baptist, Paul and Peter preached..oh yes they are using the same Bible but they are denying some of the most important truths in it..some are saying that Jesus was not born of a virgin and that He was not resurrected..my friends if this were true then there is no salvation for the lost..the true gospel is, Jesus was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, was crucified, buried, arose from the grave, ascended into Heaven and He is coming back to gather up his church to be with him in Heaven for all eternity..GLORY TO GOd!!!! Paul goes on to say in his charge to the young preacher, Timothy,
" I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom; Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry." 2 Tim.4:1-5
when Paul says preach THE WORD he means, "thus saith the Lord," not some man's interpretation.. now friends i am not talking about different versions of the Bible here..if you use the NIV.or any of the others, that's your business..I personally use the KJV. I'm talking about those who twist the Scriptures to get a different meaning from them..All i am saying is we need to be very discerning about who we listen too and what we hear..Amen..if someone gives an opinion check it out in the Word of God, He has all the answers.
.I know it is sometimes discouraging hear and see the evil that is going on all around us but the bible says in 1 Thess 5:11, "Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do." Encouragement is a wonderful thing..It has the ability to lift the load off a man's or woman's shoulders..To put a smile on a discouraged child's face..To breathe fresh fire into the fading embers of a smoldering dream. And to actually change the course of a person's day, week or even their life..So if you see someone today who feels downhearted or dissappointed because of a curve life has thrown them, reach out in love to them, give them a big smile and a hearty handshake and tell them God loves them even in the midst of their trials.. and to all my Brothers and Sisters, Remember i love you but better yet God loves you!!!
[/align]Father we thank you for your precious Word and i pray it may be a blessing to someone today..and father i pray that if there is someone here today that is lost and without a Saviour that this will be the day they will come to the cross and be born again.. this we ask in Jesus name and for his sake..Amen..
Time after time I was searching for peace in some void
I was trying to blame all my ills on this world I was in
Surface relationships used me till I was done in
But all the while someone was begging to free me from sin
Chorus
He was there all the time
He was there all the time
Waiting patiently in line
He was there all the time
Never again will I search for a fake rainbows end
Now that I"™ve found the answer my life is just starting to rhyme
Sharing each new day with Him is a breath of fresh life
Oh what I've missed He's been waiting right here all the time
Chorus
He was there all the time
He was there all the time
Waiting patiently in line
He was there all the time[/align]

Motor ,
Your words are great...I'm concerned about your heart. You and I have ought between us. If I read Jesus right your prayers can not be heard and your service is to no advail until you get your relationship right with your brother. When is the last time you have replied to one of my post?? Brother.. I have no idea how I even offended you. But your only fooling yourself to think your message has impact if you have bitterness toward another brother. For me if your doctrine teaches you that it's ok to pick and choose who you like or don't like or forgive and not forgive you are in a false doctrine. The Bible teaches us to love all men"Especially the brotherhood."
c7 Matthew 5:23Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee; 24Leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.
Chuck, i have nothing against you whatsoever..I think you are a fine christian man with good intentions..if you will remember many weeks ago you posted that you wanted nothing to do with me, so i honored that request by not being involved in your interpretations and beliefs..and my friend it is a far reach for you to say what's in my heart and that God don't answer my prayers..you are wrong my friend..I don't think i owe you an apology for anything but if i do i apologise..

Chuck, i have nothing against you whatsoever..I think you are a fine christian man with good intentions..if you will remember many weeks ago you posted that you wanted nothing to do with me, I honestly don't recall that..and if I said that ..which I must have.. I apologize. That would have been a rotten thing to say.Please forgive me.so i honored that request by not being involved in your interpretations and beliefs..and my friend it is a far reach for you to say what's in my heart and that God don't answer my prayers..you are wrong my friend..I don't think i owe you an apology for anything but if i do i apologise.. I didn't quite understand your last 2 sentences but if we can be reconciled let's do it. Generally with Christians we should be able to work out any differences. It appears it is me that it has been me lacking the understanding in our relationship and I do apologize.
Amen Bro Motor. I really look forward to your Sunday Sermonettes and have all of them saved. I'm getting quite a folder on you Wayne.
