PRAY WITHOUT CEASING - WORK FAITHFULLY - MAKE STRAIGHT THE PATHS

PRAY WITHOUT CEASING -  

WORK FAITHFULLY -  

MAKE STRAIGHT
THE PATHS 

  

When my children were growing up they knew
their Mother and Father were busy and occupied in
giving their efforts in helping a local 
Church to be what it should be -
A LIGHTHOUSE.

A LIGHTHOUSE GIVES LIGHT
SO THAT POSSIBLE ROCKS
IN THE WATER CAN BE 
AVOIDED

IT ALSO HELPS TO
LIGHT UP THE DARKNESS
SO THAT A SHIP CAN
FIND ITS WAY.

WHATEVER A CHURCH IS NAMED
IS NOT THE POINT.
IT IS WHETHER IT STICKS 
FAITHFULLY
LIKE GLUE
TO THE WRITTEN WORD OF GOD
TO THE PRECEPTS THAT IT HOLDS FORTH
AND TO THE 
BIBLICAL PRINCIPLES
IT GIVES US.

ALL WE EVER NEED 
IS THE WORD OF GOD 
FOR TODAY
THAT IS ALL WE HAVE
IN THE DARK NIGHT OF
SIN THAT 
FOLDS ITSELF
OVER EVERY ASPECT
OF LIFE 
FROM BIRTH
TO
DEATH.


LIFE.

LIFE ETERNAL.

LIFE EVER LASTING.

FOR EVER AND FOR EVER.

WHAT DOES IT 
REALLY MEAN 
TO 
LAST 
FOR EVER ?


For God So loved the World
that He gave his only 
begotten Son that 
whosoever 
believeth in him
should not perish,
but have 
everlasting 
life.
JOHN 3.16

Matthew 5.16

Let your light so shine 
before men
that they may see
your good works
and 
glorify your
Father which is in
heaven.



I was just a child 
in 1935.   Here I am 
just barely two years old
and I thought 
I was helping my 
Grandmother
in the garden ! 
Oh ! my !  
I know now how
much she loved me 
and wanted me to 
learn how
to do 
and be
all I could be 
for God.

Do you know 
we are all
LITTLE CHILDREN? 
So often 
we are unable 
to do for our self
until some ONE 
takes a hand to 
teaching 
a new truth
and a new way
to me.

UNTIL I LEARN TO 
RECEIVE FROM 
ANOTHER
I CANNOT 
LEARN 
...

A PERSON
HAS TO BE WILLING
TO 
BE TAUGHT
TO BE LED 
TO BE SHOWN WHAT 
TO DO.

AND GOD'S WORD 
DOES THAT 
ECACTLY THAT.

Psalm 119.105  
THY WORD IS A LAMP
UNTO MY FEET,
AND A LIGHT
UNTO MY PATH.

I challenge you that
the Great Commission 
in Matthew 28.18 - 20 
is the CORE TRUTH
of the LIGHT we are to 
display 
in our lives.
WITH THE LOCAL 
BODY OF BELIEVERS
A LIGHT CAN SHINE
EFFECTIVELY
IT SHOWS HOW
WE CAN LOVE ONE ANOTHER.
IT SHOWS A 
BIG CONTRAST WITH 
WHAT THE WORLD HAS TO 
OFFER.
Jesus said,  
"Upon this rock will I build my 
church, and the gates of hell
shall not prevail
against it.
Matthew 16.18.
Peter had just responded to
the question that 
Jesus gave,  
"Whom do you say
that I am?"
And Simon Peter answered
and said unto him,
Thou art the Christ,
the Son of the Living God."
Matthew 16. 16.
In John chapter 13
v 33, 34
Jesus told the 
disciples
"A new commandment I give
unto you,
that ye love one another; 
as I have loved you, 
that ye love one another.





v. 34 

By this shall all men
know that ye are my 
disciples, if ye have 
love one for another.


ROMANS 10.9, 10
THAT IF THOU SHALT CONFESS 
WITH THY MOUTH
THE LORD JESUS,
AND SHALT BELIEVE
IN THINE HEART 
THAT GOD HATH RAISED HIM
FROM THE DEAD,
THOU SHALT 
BE SAVED.
FOR WITH THE HEART 
MAN BELIEVETH UNTO
RIGHTEOUSNESS,
AND WITH THE 
MOUTH 
CONFESSION IS 
MADE
UNTO SALVATION.
ACTS 1. 7,8
It is not for you to know 
the times or the seasons,
which the Father 
hath put in His own power,
but ye shall receive power, after
that the Holy Ghost is come 
upon you, and ye
shall be witnesses
unto me, both
in Judea, 
and in Samaria,
and unto the 
uttermost part of the earth.


TO BE ABLE TO PRAY
WE MUST FIRST BE SAVED.

WHAT MUST WE DO TO BE SAVED?
said the people who were 
listening to what the 
disciples were telling 
them that JESUS WAS RISEN
FROM THE DEAD
AND GONE BACK TO 
HEAVEN
AND WILL 
COME AGAIN....

WHAT MUST WE DO 
TO BE SAVE?

Peter answered,
REPENT 
AND BE BAPTIZED 
EVERY ONE OF YOU
IN THE NAME OF 
JESUS CHRIST
FOR HIS 
REMISSION 
(FOGIVENESS) 
OF SINS, 
AND YE SHALL RECEIVE
THE GIFT OF
THE HOLY GHOST.

FOR THE PROMISE IS
UNTO YOU, 
AND UNTO YOUR CHILDREN,
AND TO ALL THAT ARE AFAR OFF,
EVEN AS MANY AS
THE LORD  OUR GOD
SHALL CALL.
Acts 2.38 - 40



REMEMBER 
BAPTISM IS NOT WHAT
SAVES US.

WE ONLY  SHOULD BE BAPTIZED
AFTER WE REPENT AND BELIEVE
ON THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST,
AND THIS IS TO OBEY 
HIS COMMAND 
AND
TO IDENTIFY
OUR LIFE WITH 
THE 
DEATH
BURIAL
AND
RESURRECTION OF 
JESUS CHRIST
AS 
A
SUBSTITUTE 
AND 
ATONEMENT
FOR MY SIN
IN MY PLACE
AND 
AS HE ROSE FROM THE GRAVE
I AM DEAD INDEED TO SIN
AND ALIVE UNTO GOD
THROUGH THE
BLOOD OF THE 
FINISHED WORK
ON THE CROSS OF CALVARY.

THE CHURCH IS 
THE PEOPLE 
WHO "ARE CALLED OUT" 
TO BE HIS PEOPLE
HIS CHURCH
In every way, we
are NOW members 
of God's family.

Galatians 3.26
For ye are all the 
children of God 
by faith
in Christ Jesus. 

Ephesians 2.8,9
For by grace 
are ye saved through faith;
and that not 
of yourselves;
it is the gift of God;
not of works,
lest any man should boast.

Philippians 1.6
Being confident of this
very thing, 
that he that hath begun 
a good work in you
will perform it 
until the day of Christ.

Galatians 3.13 
Christ hath redeemed us 
from the curse of the law, being made
a curse for us; for
it is written,
cursed is every one
that hangeth from a tree.

Galatians 3.14 
That the blessing of Abraham
might come on the Gentiles
through Jesus Christ; 
that we might receive
the promise of the 
Spirit through faith.

Galatians 3.28 
There is neither Jew nor Greek;
there is neither bond nor free; 
there is neither male nor female, 
for ye are all 
one in Christ Jesus.

1 Peter 2.1, 2
Wherefore, laying aside all 
malice, and all guild, and hypocrisies,
and evies, and all 
evil speaking,
as newborn babes, 
desire ye the sincere milk
of the WORD  that ye 
may grow thereby.


ROMANS   10.17 
so then faith cometh by hearing,
and hearing by the word of God.
