In His wonderful grace the Lord has provided us with a new used car! It's a 1993 Chrysler Concorde with nearly 200,000 miles but it's in great condition. The Lord even provided for a new battery and the new license plates! Praise and glory to our Heavenly Father!!!

Elizabeth has been approved to go back to work on light duty - she can only do dusting with her left and - she is NOT to use her right hand for anything. Last night was her first night back. Oh, and she is under strict orders not to tell anyone what happened - strange.

Praise the Lord! We had a young mother visit the church this morning with her three daughters. The mother came forward during the invitation this morning and received Christ as her Saviour. We also had a young lady join the church this morning. God's good, Amen.

There is a good possibility that Elizabeth might go back to work soon. She will be on light duty - not allowed to use her right hand for any cleaning. Her work place said that she could do dusting with her left hand if she is allowed to come back.

God's Protection.

Earlier today, I was out in our backyard playing some basketball. At one point, I missed a basket, and the ball went flying over towards a big tree. When I walked over to get the ball, and stepped forward to grab it, my right foot got scraped by the cut-off stem of a very small tree. Thankfully, it didn't hurt much, nor was it cut too badly. If my full weight had landed on it, it doubtless would have been much, much worse. So, I just want to thank and praise God for His protection today. Also, if you could, please pray that the cut would heal quickly. It's not bad, as I said, but it could possibly provide some problems. Thank you. :smile God bless, Crushmaster.

I've been struggling a lot in my writing, but, finally, today, the Lord allowed me to have a breakthrough, and I managed to write a good deal. This is something I've been having problems with for a long, long time, but the Lord has now helped me get back on track. All glory to God! God bless, Crushmaster.

I don't share very well about my physical problems but the LORD won't let this go that I need to share this here. Hope this helps someone because I'm scared to death. Cann't explain just a private person in this area. What happen to my praise??!! I have Parkinsonism which has caused me to be unable to walk without a walker leave it by the doorway and walk--never said gracefully-to the sofa. I tried this in the kitchen but almost feel several times-husband told DR. on me and told me not to even be trying .We take soo much for granted!! Trust me we don't realize until we cann't. Be grateful for the seemingly small blessings!! The LORD is good and ALWAYS keeps His promises!!…

It's just been a great week, in many ways. :smile The Lord has really been blessing. (Psalms 68:19) - "Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation. Selah." God bless, Crushmaster.

Click on the link to view the article on page 3 http://ntaibc.org/docs/nta_test_200901.pdf The great thing about this is we never submitted it to the NTA newsletter. Someone else took the liberty of sharing our ministry with them. I had actually thought about submitting an article but never got around to it. Please continue to pray for the website www.afterdeathwhat.com and the tract ministry. God bless.

Proverbs 22:1 says, "A good name iks rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favor rather than silver and gold." Today in this country, we have chosen the ways of socialism, government bailouts, homosexual marriage, abortion, and pornography rather than the virtue of a good name before the Lord. I would rather be called Christian than worldly, pro-life instead of a murderer, a supporter of Biblical marriage rather than homosexual marriage, and a hard worker instead of a ward of the state's welfare system! Amen and Amen!

Sunday night I spoke on the topic of, 'A Genuine Christian Faith.' Monday night as we were going to bed, our ten year old daughter came to us and shared that Sunday night, on her own, in our family room, she did business with God. She told us that she had asked the Lord to forgive her for her sins, come into her heart and change her life, make her one of His children, and to, as she put it, "...take her home to Heaven when she dies." We were so tickled. You'd have to know Bethany, she is a quiet and sober minded girl. We knew this is not some whim she came up with. She hadn't really been very inquistivie, but she is a very contemplative girl. She saw it was time to…

My son off at college had a praise tonight

K>(my son) said he was sitting at lunch aloneon Tuesday. Most times it doesn't bother him but he started praying because he realized he was beginning to feel blue. His wording! He said the next thing he knew a guy he knew and respected ask to sit down with him and then two more. They had a great time chatting. Then K (my son) said he had to get going and one of the guys ask if he was headed off to the mision conference. K said yes and the boy wanted to join him. The conferencences aren't mandatory but K said it's hard to explain but all the students want to be there. He said that alone makes it very special but the mission preaching is out of this world. Anyhow then he…

Other brothers and sisters in Christ. We truly do need each other, especially after spending time in this old world of sin, which is ruled by Satan. It's great to go to church, and visit places like this, and fellowship with other believers. :smile (Hebrews 10:25) - "Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching." God bless, Crushmaster.

Every day, it is always a part of my prayer that HE would take care and protect my family from harm and danger. We all know that violence is just everywhere, when I see killings, murders, robbery, being a headline in the newspaper, I secretly panic and pray that none of my love ones are involved. I do not know if this is paranoia but I really can't look at the headlines in the tabloid and newspaper anymore. It really makes me sick and nervous. I have lots of unanswered prayer in my life right now, but this one God always answer. He really preserve the lives of my family everyday. And I praise Him... Most of them are not saved yet and I would really rejoice if God will giv…

Praising God for His provision!

The Lord is sooo good! Our son is in Bible College. We actually are depending on the Lord step-by-step for his needs to be provided and they have been every step of the way!! He came for Christmas(blessing!!) but then mentioned just to me that their were several clothing items he was needing. The money just wasn't there but I didn't tell him! I ask him if we could just pray daily along with me that the Lord would supply these needs. We agreed not to share with anyone so we would know it was the Lord's provision not mans. Every single item was provided! It literally arrived in the mail!! Manna from heaven?? My dad (very agnostic and upset that his only grandchild is adimit…

We have been praying for my niece and I have asked for your prayers as well. Well...God still answers prayers!! And we want to praise Him for it!! At the same time, we want to ask for more prayers. There are many rules that the State imposes on caregivers for foster children and some of them contradict my beliefs as to the best interest of a child. One area is regarding discipline. If we want to have custody of her, we have to sign an agreement that we will only discipline her according to their guidlines and measures of discipline they approve. Am I supposed to have a double standard for her and my biological children? Can anyone say confusion? Please keep me an…

My hubby sent me an e-mail after he was at work this morning. Praise God he, and the "guy in the little car" were not hurt! This is what he wrote: I really got my heart pumping this morning. I was in the right lane going down 131 and all of a sudden a logging semi swerved in front of me. In the split second I couldn?t tell if he lost control and was jackknifing or something else. I then watched him just clear a small car that spun out in front of him and was sitting in the road backwards. There was enough space that I didn?t hit his trailer but it was some fast steering and braking for me as the truck was across both lanes for an instant. I watched in amazement…

We attended our church's watch night service and on our way home, Esther said that she was not saved. We asked a few questions in the van about salvation and what you need to do to become saved and she gave clear, accurate answers. At home, Elizabeth took Esther in to her room and talked with her. When I came in from tending to the boys, I heard Esther praying and asking Jesus to come into her heart and take away her sins. What a way to start the new year!

Before Christmas Break I started seperating from God. I kind of sat on the fence between God and flesh. I started using filth talk, lusting after many things, and dressing like I used to before I was born again. I still read my Bible and tried to witness, and went to church, but the world began to suck me in. I prayed to the Lord to a revival in my soul, and voila'! I tried my best, and left the results to him, and praise God, I had winter camp! The next week I had the courage to dress like a good Christian, and I also had the courage to witness, even though very very VERY little witnessing, simply because the rise on atheism and also people completely ignore me in these …

Money--unfortunately medicine cost money even with insurance. I'm now taking 39 pills to mostly keep my movement disorder from moving my body of it's own free will. I'm thankful to have the medicine but the cost has been difficult. BUT the LORD allowed a grant for ONE medicine for $1300.00 to be covered by donation's! Wait it gets even better! This put me out of the doughtnut hole (something we have w/ medicare too long to exlplain) Even though I am under 65 I qualify so guess what the LORD did the very last week of 2008?! I was able to have every medication I'm on for $2.25 or 5% of the total cost if a name brand. Unfortunately some med's I take have no generic. This sa…

When I became pastor here in Sep I knew thew could not pay me enough to live on, but I wanted to be full time so I could go door knocking about 10-20 hours/week believing that the church would grow enough in a year or so to make up the rest. I have enough in savings to last till then. the $400/week is about $100 short of what we need. So I told my wife "I think I will go find a part time job to make up the $100/week" and no one else but the Lord knew my intentions, Then yesterday the treasure came to me with a check for $500 and said it came in designated for me. So last night my wife said she thinks that the Lord wants me to keep door knocking. Praise the Lord He is rig…

I was a bit concerned about the crowd we would have in church yesterday because of a number of things. We had some bad weather Saturday afternoon and evening. We have a large family on vacation, and a lot of sickness in the church. I counted all that would not be there and was anticipating 20 missing. When your average attendance is only 30 that is a concern. But I know that we have had about 6 or 8 out this past week door-knocking. When people started coming in I was encouraged that we had over 20 even with all of the folks that were missing for various whatever reasons. I preach it all the time that God blesses our faithfulness then He confirms that truth and gives us a…

My church has been in the process of organizing "Seed Line"---which goes hand in hand with Bearing Precious Seed in Milford, OH. Today and tomorrow were set aside to collate the booklets for John and Romans. I got there and worked in the kitchen. The saints had already put together (collated) 15,000,000 booklets to be sent to the IFB churches in Africa. :-) Work was going on all day---and was supposed to continue tomorrow. With the turnout of people, though, it was finished at 8:45 P.M. :thumb We will also be distributing the rest of the Gospel in our own Jerusalem, Samaria, and Judea. Hallelujah Lord Jesus. John 4:14...But whosoever drinketh of th…

Yes, I have a pastor friend in the Independence, MO area that spoke against this often. I've got an aunt and uncle in O'Fallon, MO who could be on either side of the issue. -
The country seems to be going in a positive direction, sadly in Missouri we allowed amendment three to be passed.

I complete agree brother, we younger people are taught as you said that we are the descendants of primates, we are then taught that as you’ve mentioned about the new view of the Bible, that our religion is wrong and backward, a very sad thing in todays education. I hear it even from teachers and peers who would profess to be Christians.

It's strange how the Bible was held in such high esteem then, but that after this trial, not so very far from where I live today, the Bible is no longer welcomed into the classroom, and we are now considered to be the proginy of monkeys. It's so very sad. -
Hello brothers and sisters, I was recently given the assignment of writing a paper on the infamous Scopes V. Tennessee trial. I found it quite interesting how the defense attorney, Clarence Darrow, had no genuine argument or examination of the evidence itself. He instead called the prosecuting attorney, Mr. William Jennings Bryan, as a sole witness and ridiculed his faith, interpretation of the Bible, and his view of the creation account. I find this very thought provoking. best regards, Oldtyme (edits have been made for clarity and grammar purposes.)
