Rom 16.24
“The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.”
“Meekness – That man walks most safely who has the least confidence in himself
…Pride ever sinks where humility swims…”
– Adam Clarke
You can be both a Christian & an American, as one can be a Christian & a Swede, Korean, or Colombian. I hasten to add, if, hear it, IF Christ is first (no reservations) & “American” is a distant, non-competitive second. If you’re struggling, please find a place to pray – & no, don’t wait. Whether things will worsen, then improve, then tighten again I don’t know. But your allegiance must be to Jesus. PARAMOUNT. Some day, perhaps without warning, an antichrist force will grip most of the civilized world & you’ll need to know THEN that Jesus is King, not some politician or spokesman for the devil. – 4/30/20
“Is it not common for interested persons to rejoice in the success of an unjust & sanguinary war,
in the sackage & burning of cities…if such christians can be saved, demons need not despair.”
– Adam Clarke
TOMBSTONE
Pillars and spires and slabs of stone,
Each inscribed with a name of its own,
And date for death and date for birth.
Showing how long “they” lived on earth. – eab, May ’95
Pastor, evangelist, youth leader;
who is the most comfortable in your audience: the sports-loving, hollywood/disney watching crowd,
or, OR, the saint whose heart is pulling on heaven for revival?
Seldom, if ever, are both groups pleased with the same preacher and – – – rightly so. – 5/1/20
“They [Jews] are compelled to wear little yellow rings on their coats…”
– Martin Luther
Dan 1.8
“…Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself
with the portion of the king’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank:”
The devil will tell you that if you could dress (or undress) like so-n-so you’d be happy. It’s a lie.
He’ll tell you that if you’d listen to the music of “x” or “y” you’d be content. It’s a lie.
satan will say “if… if… if…” he wants you chasing bubbles the rest of life.
He doesn’t care a whiff about you. – 5/2/20
“…The alteration of the Sabbath which sorely annoys them
but ‘twas ordered by the apostle, in honor of the Lord’s resurrection.”
– Martin Luther
