A man decided to go to church one day,
He was down hearted and  so went to pray.

He came to the front door ad was welcomed in,
There quietly seated were many children, women and men,

The teacher in Sunday School made him feel glad,
For he heard more about Jesus than he ever had.

The Preacher then followed preaching God’s Word,
The message was different than any he had ever heard,

He made very plain  God’s simple salvation plan,
How that His only Begotten Son died to save every man.

He urged all to accept Jesus from sin  He will set you free,
I knew I was a sinner, the Holy Spirit was convicting me,

The Preacher called out, “Beloved, what shape are you in?
Without repenting faith there is no forgiveness of sin! “

The invitation was offered, but I waited for awhile,
But I couldn’t resist God  calling me to walk down the aisle.

At the old -fashioned altar on my knees I repented of sin,
Now Jesus is my personal Savior, praise God I’m born again.

Then there came a day when testimonies were being given So this is his testimony of that day he received Salvation.

Well Folks, one Sunday morning I repented
                                Of my self-righteousness.
I knelt down at the altar,
                                 And Jesus Christ confessed.
Then one day I was baptized,
                                  As a public confession of faith,
In Jesus Christ as my  Savior,
                                   And God’s wonderful Grace.
Now every day I try harder,
                                    then did the day before,
To live my life more pleasing,
                                    And glorify the Lord.
Every day I’m reading my Bible,
                                    And spending time in prayer,
And to my friends & neighbors
                                     I the Gospel share.

I never miss a church service
                                     On Sundays or mid-week too,
Oh how I love Jesus,
                                      My Friends, how about you.

Praise God I 'm saved, Praise God I'm saved
I'm born again a child of God
Praise God I'm saved

EVOLUTION SAYS….

EVOLUTION SAYS A GREAT BIG BANG
QUADILLION YEARS AGO,
AND FROM THAT BANG CAME THE  EARTH
AND LIFE BEGAN TO GROW.

YES, EVOLUTION SAYS A GREAT BIG BANG
AND LO THE WORLD BEGAN,
                  YEARS WOULD YOU BELIEVE CAME MAN?
                                                            ­          
                FIRST THERE CAME A POLLYWOG
THAT SOME HOW SPROUTED ON IT’S OWN
                IT CRAWLED AROUND  IN THE MUD
               AND  SOME HOW DEVELOPED BONE.

EXOLUTION SAYS FROM THE POLLYWOG
                EVOLVED A LITTLE TADPOLE.
AND FROM THAT POLE CAME A MONK IN
                ANOTHER BILLION YEARS OR SO

AND FROM THAT MONK IN ANOTHER
                BILLION YEARS IMAGINE IF YOU CAN,
                THEN IN THE PROCESS OF EVOLUTION,
                TURNED IT INTO MAN!
                                                  

AND EVOLUTION SAYS….BUT WE DON’T CARE,
IT’S THEORY IS ABSURD!
THAT LIFE BEGAN ALL BY IT’S SELF
MOST  FOOLISH EVER HEARD!

NOW IF YOU BELIEVE THIS MY FRIEND,
I’VE GOT A GOOD DEAL FOR YOU,
I OWN  SOME LAKE FRONT PROPERTY
ON THE PLANET MARS, I’LL SALE FOR A
MILLION NINTY-TWO.

OH HOW FOOLISH TO BELIEVE
THE EVOLUTION FRAUD,
CREATION OF LIFE AND MANKIND
WAS ALL THE WORK OF GOD.!!!!!!!!

YEAH IT WAS -ALL THE WORK
       OF GOD.
                    - BY G.E. PARSON

THE BIG FIGHT

I WENT TO BED LAST NIGHT
TIRED AS I COULD BE,
Was sleeping very good,
Until a terrible commotion woke me.

So furious was the commotion,
My king size bed was shaking.
Some THINGS -  were fighting in my bed
I promise you, if I’m lying I’m dying.

Something was biting me all over my body,
And some kind of smelly gunk landed in my eyes,
I later learned it was Dust Mite’s *****
There were little bugs hanging on my skin,
Biting me all over from my head to my feet.
Added to this irritant, after I brushed them off,
And  jumped back in bed, there was Dust Mite ****  
all over  my sheet.

I later found out the big fight was between
Six legged Bed Bugs fighting Microscopic Dust Mites over my skin flakes,
The Dust Mites were pooping and the Bed Bugs biting.

So I gave up my bed and let them fight
And went out side and slept in the dog house
With my hound dog the rest of the night.
                         - by G.E, Parson

CONTENDING FOR THE FAITH
  Certain men, described by Jude,
  As ungodly filthy dreamers,
  Condemned unto judgment,
  Evil speakers and flesh defilers

  Have subtly and secretly made themselves
  A part of the Christian faith,
  Purposely undermining salvation
  with ungodly speeches against God’s Grace.

Who are these insolent filthy dreamers
Who speak evil against Dignities with
                              disdain?
“Woe unto them” says the Apostle Jude,
“Woe unto Balaam, Core and Cain.”

Representative are these three of
The self-righteous for salvation,
The self-seeking for prestige and power,
The worshipper of wealth and mammon.

These are spots, ugly, despicable spots
In your love feast celebrations.
With all boldness and fearlessness,
They join you without invitation.

These are the murmurers, the complainers,
The mockers, of the soon  return of Christ,
As prophesied by Jesus and the Apostles,
     that in the last days they would arise.

In view of such apostates as these,
Be praying in the Holy Ghost, Beloved,
And building yourselves up in the Spirit,
Be living daily in the sphere of God’s love.

Having compassion on the innocent deceived,
The sincere soul drawn into a damning lair;
And others, addicted to chains of sin,
With great caution, ****** from the fire.

This, then, is the message of God,
With compassion, caution and love,
Be ready always to contend for the faith,
For the glory and majesty of God above.

DOUBT NOT GOD'S FAITHFULNESS
FAITHFUL TO THE LORD
   The Bible tells of a man called Job,
Whose life was filled with great discord.
He lost all his family and fortune,
But through it all was faithful to the Lord.
            chorus
Faithful to the Lord, Faithful to the Lord,
My Brother and Sister, be faithful to the Lord!
Yes faithful to the Lord, faithful to the Lord,
Be like Job, be faithful to the Lord.

Have your friends all turned their backs upon you,
And left you walking all alone?
Just remember, God is always faithful,
and will love and keep you as his own.

To Abraham, Isaac and Jacob,
God's promise of faithfulness was given,
To Joshua, the Judges of Israel,
And to a man called Gideon.

Yes my friends, doubt not  God's faithfulness,
Read the long list of men and women
to whom God was faithful to supply of their needs.
Found in the book of Hebrews, chapter eleven.
