Genesis 2. 10 – 11

“And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and

became into four heads.

“The name of the first is Pison: that is it which compasseth the whole land of Havilah,

where there is gold;

Wedding OR Marriage?

People place too much emphasis on the Wedding – making an impression (for an hour) on people.

Place instead, the emphasis on the Marriage (it is the “real thing”)

– – – impress your husband/wife, for life!

HOLLOW or FILLED

Ever received at Christmas

A box surprisingly light?

It seemed it might be empty

When you looked inside ─ you were right. 

2

Except for a piece of paper

Its cavernous space was hollow,

Directions or “a promise” the

Giver expected you to “swallow.”

3

Some folks lives are hollow,

Shallow, empty, weighing light

They need Jesus to fix them,

Wrong needs replaced by right.

4

Friend is your life “on empty”

Running, but-barely, on short supply?

Are you grasping at earthly straws

Waiting, yet dreading to die?

5

Let Jesus fill your hollow life,

Fill it with purpose and song.

You too can shine and you can shout,

Now – – – and Eternally long.

Separation is vital

Friends, please give THIS 2^nd and 3^rd thoughts.

There were holiness preachers in the 50’s & 60’s who gave clear warnings against catholicism.  They did not teach “penance” (Bible teaches Repentance).

These men of God would NOT have encouraged “lent.”  These narrow-way men would never have called a priest “father” (“…call no man your father upon the earth…” Mat 23.9), or referred to the RC as a denomination.

Please, ministers and church leaders Awake.  The move is on toward THE one-world church and lent seems a step that direction. 

Stop this drift.  Separation is vital.  Evangelicals and holiness souls, we did not need lent.
