Speak Amendment 1 to the U.S. Constitution begins, "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof...."
We all know that Christianity is under serious attack by atheists, humanists, secularists and liberals in general. They maintain that religion has no place in American Life and must be removed from schools, government, public life and ultimately from America in general.
Their main argument is what the antireligious call "founding father's intent".
But the founding fathers, including John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, George Washington and Thomas Jefferson had a strong and abiding belief in God.
The founding fathers were intelligent enough to recognize that God is central to mankind. Those who would deny it are, wittingly or otherwise, working for satan and attempting to deny Americans their God given rights: Happiness in knowing Christ as their redeemer; liberty to worship God without restriction; and eternal life itself.
Americans must realize that America's political freedoms are based on Christian principles and that only a widespread Christian faith and general belief in God can keep our political freedoms secure. Don Cheek

Let us take time... To give God worship, service and communion. To live with our friends while we have them. A coffin is a poor place for a warm handclasp and cheery greeting. To forgive our enemies Jesus found time to do it between the blows of the hammer. To go slower up hill when we are young and down hill when we are old. copied |

New Testament Greek Course To Be Offered!
This coming Sunday, September 7, at 4:00 P.M., we will have a meeting for all those who are interested in studying New Testament Greek. There will be two options:
- A Class will meet here at the building every other Sunday from 4:00 to 5:00 P.M.
- A Greek correspondence course will be offered to those who cannot attend class.
I have had several calls from people who are interested in the class. One has come from Mason, Texas. Several are denominational people. This will be a good chance to open the doors for evangelism. Please pray for the class. Even if you have no plans to take the class, please pray for it. If you know of anyone who might be interested, please have them call me at 325-944-1715. as soon as possible!!
In
Christian Love,

"There is an expectation by God that His people will assemble together in worship. It is in church that we draw near to God, nurture our faith and solidify our hope (Heb. 10:19-25) If we love God, then we will want to draw near to Him, even in church.
We recognize that there are times when one can't attend, but one must never use excuses to stay away. Christians who consistently stay away from church grow weak in their faith and their relationship with God will diminish.
Going to church is not the only way to demonstrate our love for God, but if you love God, where else would you be on Sunday? Russ Mullins (Paraphrased)
