ANNUAL WILD GAME DINNER AT HERTIGAGE BAPT CHURCH

2012-01-15T22:48:00.000-05:00

THE LORD SAVED THIRTY-FIVE DEAR SOULS LAST EVENING AT HERTIGAGE BAPTIST. THERE WERE IN ATTENDANCE FIVE HUNDRED MEN AND BOYS WITH A QUARTER OF THEM HAVING NEVER BEEN TO THE DINNER BEFORE. THE FOOD WAS TREMENDOUS, THE FELLOWSHIP AS USUAL SO VERY GREAT AND EVERYTHING SO WELL PLANNED. THERE WERE HUNDREDS OF YOUNG BOYS PRESENT WITH EVERYONE GETTING SOME SORT OF GIFT THAT A HUNTER WOULD NORMALLY HAVE IN HIS POSSESSION. THE SMILES WERE MEMORABLE WITH THE LORD OF COURSE HAVING HIS WAY WITH MANY.

GOSPEL LIGHT BAPTIST CHURCH, SALISBURY, NC.

2011-12-06T05:29:00.000-05:00

SATURDAY EVENING WAS ONCE AGAIN ESPECIALLY ENJOYABLE AS GOSPEL LIGHT PUT ON THEIR ANNUAL WILD GAME DINNER. I HAVE BEEN PREACHING AT THESE NOW FOR OVER THIRTY YEARS BUT NEVER HAVE I SEEN SO MUCH WILD GAME AND SO WELL PREPARED. WHATEVER A HUNTER WANTED, IT WAS ON THE TABLE. EVERYTHING FROM VENISON TO SHEEPS HEAD TO TURKEY TO WILD BOAR SALAD TO FRESH BEAR TO SQUIRREL STEW TO ?????????????. SMILE. WELL ATTENDED BY MEN FROM SEVERAL CHURCHES.

THEN ON THE LORD'S DAY WE ENJOYED THE PRESENCE OF THE LORD IN ALL THREE SERVICES, SUNDAY SCHOOL, MORNING WORSHIP AS WELL AS EVENING. THE LORD HAD ME ADDRESS A SENSITIVE SUBJECT IN THE MORNING SERVICE, THAT OF CREMATION. THERE ARE NO CHRISTIANS IN THE BIBLE WHO WERE CREMATED, ONLY THE HEATHEN. THERE IS NO SCRIPTURE ALLOWING FOR THIS HEATHEN PREACTICE. MANY WELL MEANING CHRISTIANS ARE DOING THIS BECAUSE IT IS CHEAPER. IT MAY BE CHEAPER BUT ONE HAS NO SCRITPURE FOR SUCH A PRACTICE. SOME CHOOSE TO CREMATE A LOVED ONE BUT WITH NO BIBLICAL BASIS. MANY WERE ELATED THAT THIS HAD BEEN ADDRESSED AS QUESTIONS HAD ARRISEN FROM " FRIENDS WHO HAD BEEN CREMATING RATHER THAN BURYING THEIR LOVED ONE'S." REST ASSURED I HAD THE PASTORS NOD OF APPROVAL BEFORE PROCEEDING.

2011-11-15T07:44:00.000-05:00

GREAT START ON SUNDAY, EXCELLENT ALTAR CALLS, MARVELOUS SINGING ESPECAILLY BY PASTOR. MONDAY EVENING WE WERE BLESSED WITH SEVERAL VISITORS. PASTOR AND I VISITED A MAN MONDAY AFTERNOON AND INVITED HIM. HE THEN INVITED HIS NEIGHBOR WHO CAME WITH HIM. THIS INVITED MAN WAS A VIETNAM VETERAN WHO WAS SAVED IN THE SERVICE. WHAT A BLESSING TO SEE HIM AFTERWARD TELLING FOLKS ABOUT HIS SALVATION. THERE IS NO DOUBT ABOUT THE GREATNESS AND WONDER OF OUR GOD. WE ARE VISITING ANOTHER MAN TODAY IN HOPES OF GETTING HIM TO COME AND PRAYERFULLY PRAYING THAT HE TOO WILL BE SAVED. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PRAYERS AND CONCERN FOR THOSE LIVING WITHOUT THE LORD JESUS - WE MUST GET THEM SAVED AS THE TIME IS SHORT!

IN PHILADELPHIA FOR MEETINGS!

2011-11-13T11:46:00.000-05:00

STAYING AT THE HOLIDAY INN IN BEN SALEM. SPOKE WITH MY NEIBHBOR THIS MORNING WHO HAD HIS SON'S CAR, HIS CAR AND HIS WIFES' CAR ALL THREE TIRES REMOVED DURING THE NIGHT. I AM GLAD THAT I DID NOT HAVE A CAR TO PARK BUT AM BEING PICKED UP THIS MORNING BY PASTOR VANHOOSE. OUR COUNTRY IS GETTING WORSE AND WORSE.

WORTH BAPTIST CHURCH, FORT WORTH, TEXAS

2011-11-12T08:43:00.000-05:00

ABSOLUTELY ONE OF THE BEST AND MOST EXCITING GOD AND COUNTRY DAYS WERE EXPERIENCED AT WORTH BAPTIST CHURCH ON SUNDAY THE 6TH OF NOVEMBER. PASTOR WEAVER AND HIS STAFF DID IT UP RIGHT - EXCELLENT SINGING, EXCELLENT CEREMONY WITH EXCELLENT RESULTS. THE MUSIC WAS EXTRA SPECIAL AS THE DIRECTOR OF MUSIC, ANDREW JOHNSON, PCC GRAD, AND DEAR FRIEND OF MINE HAD EVERYTHING PLANNED AND COORDINATED TO THE INTH DEGREE. A LARGE GROUP OF VETERANS WERE RECOGNIZED WITH A MEDLY FOR EACH BRANCH OF SERVICE PLAYED WHILE THEY STOOD BEFORE THE CHURCH BODY. BETWEEN FOUR AND FIVE HUNDRED FOLKS ATTEND WORTH WITH (I THINK MOST OF THEM THERE ON THE MORNING OF THE 6TH). IF EVER YOU FIND YOURSELF IN THE DALLAS/FORT WORTH AREA BE SURE AND ATTEND WORTH BAPTIST AS THIS IS A FIRM AND SOLID FUNDAMENTAL BAPTIST CHURCH WITH SOUND MUSIC THAT MINISTERS THE GRACE OF GOD WITHOUT A PERFORMANCE AS WELL AS PREACHING THAT ONE CAN HARDLY FIND IN THESE CLOSING DAYS OF GRACE.

WE MADE SIXTY-ONE BORDER CROSSINGS INTO RED CHINA AND WERE ABLE TO SMUGGLE SOMEWHERE BETWEEN FIVE AND SEVEN THOUSAND BIBLES INTO THE UNDERGROUND CHURCHES OF CHINA. WE WERE CAUGHT EIGHT TIMES, DETAINED, OUR BIBLES TAKEN HOWEVER WE WERE ABLE TO BUY THEM BACK AT A LATER TIME - WE REMOVED THE BIBLES -RETURNED TO A SAFE AREA, REPACKED ANOTHER LOAD AND RETURNED - WE USUALLY MADE FOUR RUNS A DAY AND ALL TO THE GLORY OF GOD. IT WAS REAL, EXCITING, SOMEWHAT SPOOKY WHEN DEALING WITH THE "ICE" OF CHINA AND TOUGH ON THIS OLD MAN AS THE CASES WE PULLED WEIGHED APPROXIMATELY SIXTY FIVE TO SEVENTY POUNDS EACH PLUS OUR BACK PACKS - IT IS DEFINATELY A YOUNG MAN'S TASK! I APPRECIATE YOUR PRAYERS FOR MY SAFETY AS WELL AS MY SON GARY'S. THE RIDE OVER WAS SIXTEEN HOURS FROM CHICAGO TO HONG KONG WHILE THE RIDE BACK WAS TWELVE HOURS FROM BEIJING TO CHICAGO, PLUS TWO HOURS TO GREEENVILLE/SPARTENBURG, PLUS TWO HOURS TO CHARLOTTE. WE ARRIVED HOME AT TWO IN THE MORNING.

WARM REGARDS AND THANKS TO YOU ALL.

WELL ATTENDED BY THE MEN OF GOSPEL LIGHT AND OTHER CHURCHES AS WELL. I AM ALREADY LOOKING FORWARD TO NEXT YEAR. WHAT REALLY MADE THIS YEAR ONE OF THE BEST WAS THE TWO LADIES THAT CAME TO THE CHURCH SEEKING HELP. MRS. WIKE LED ONE OF THE LADIES TO THE LORD, A LADY THAT HAD A CHECKERED PAST, MISERABLE AND IN NEED OF MUCH CHANGE. SHE LEFT WITH THE LORD AS HER SAVIOUR AND A CHANGED LIFE. TEARS OF JOY COVERED THE BUILDING AS WORD SPREAD OF THIS NEW CHILD OF GOD. THE LORD'S DAY SERVICES WERE EQUALLY WELL ATTENDED. GOSPEL LIGHT IS FULL OF WONDERFUL PEOPLE, SWEET PEOPLE WITH A HEART FOR THE THINGS OF GOD. THEY LOVE PREACHING AND FELLOWSHIPPING.

2010-11-10T20:58:00.000-05:00

WE CLOSED THE MEETING WEDNESDAY EVENING AFTER FOUR GREAT DAYS OF SERVICES. WE DID NOT EXPERIENCE REVIVAL BUT WE DID HAVE SOME WONDERFUL TIMES AROUND THE OLD FASHIONED ALTAR WHERE NUMEROUS DECISIONS WERE MADE. THE FOLKS OF PINE BLUFF ARE SWEET AND KIND AND SO VERY EASY TO PREACH FOR AND TO BE AROUND. I AM SOMEWHAT PARTIAL AS I AM ALSO A SOUTH GEORGIAN AND WE ARE VERY DIFFERENT FROM ANYONE ELSE. PASTOR SMITH HAS BEEN HERE NOW FOR OVER TWENTY-ONE YEARS AND WITHOUT A DOUBT PASTORS ONE OF THE BEST CHURCHES IN ALL OF GEORGIA, THE LARGEST STATE BY THE WAY EAST OF THE MISSISSIPPI. WE EXPERIENCED GOOD CROWDS WITH A GOOD NUMBER OF VISITORS. TONIGHT, WEDNESDAY, I WAS MET AT THE FRONT OF THE CHURCH BY A MAN WITH A MARINE JACKET ON WHO ASKED IF I KNEW HIM. I REPLIED I DID NOT AND INFORMED ME THAT I SHOULD AS I HAD LED HIM TO THE LORD IN 1976 IN ARIZONA WHILE THE BOTH OF US WERE ON ACTIVE DUTY IN THE MARINE'S. HE HAS BEEN SERVING THE LORD EVER SINCE AND IS NOW LIVING HERE IN ALBANY AND SOMEONE HAD INVITED HIM TO THE SERVICES. WHAT A WONDERFUL JOY THAT WAS. CHARLES GRIFFIN SERVED TWENTY YEARS IN THE CORPS AND IS NOW RETIRED AND WORKING AT THE MARINE BASE. ADDITIONALLY SIX OF MY FIRST COUSINS WERE PRESENT DURING THE MEETINGS - WITH ALL THEM CONFESSING JESUS CHRIST AS SAVIOUR, ALSO A GREAT BLESSING. IF YOU ARE EVER IN SOUTH GEORGIA (IN ALBANY) BE SURE TO ATTEND PINE BLUFF BAPTIST CHURCH ON PINE BLUFF ROAD. AND BE SURE EAT AT "PEARLY'S"! COUNTRY COOKING AT IT'S FINEST!

Meaning of a Flag Draped Coffin

2010-10-25T20:35:00.003-04:00

All Americans should be given this lesson. Those who think that America is an arrogant nation should really reconsider that thought. Our founding fathers used GOD's word and teachings to establish our Great Nation and I think it's high time Americans get re-educated about this Nation's history.

COMMUNITY BAPTIST CHURCH, AYDEN, NC

2010-10-22T20:31:00.000-04:00

I WAS FIRST HERE EIGHTEEN YEARS AGO FOR MY FIRST REVIVAL MEETING, PASTOR AND MRS. WINDGARD'S YOUNGEST DAUGHTER WAS IN THE FOURTH GRADE, NOW MARRIED AND EXPECTING HER SECOND DAUGHTER. HOW TIME FLYS! ONCE AGAIN WE ENJOYED THE PRESENCE OF OUR DEAR LORD THROUGHOUT THE MEETINGS AND AS IS THE CASE IN EASTERN CAROLINA THE MEETINGS WERE ATTENDED BY FOLKS FROM SEVERAL (AT LEAST FIVE) CHURCHES. WHAT A JOY IT IS TO SEE THIS KIND OF FELLOWSHIP AND IS SO UNUSUAL AS I KNOW OF NO OTHER PLACE IN AMERICA WHERE THIS HAPPENS. THERE WERE MANY DESCISIONS ON THE OLD FASHIONED ALTAR FOR THE ALTAR WAS "FULL" EVERY SERVICE. TO MY KNOWLEDGE NO ONE WAS SAVED BUT THE SWEET SPIRIT OF GOD LINGERED OVER US EACH EVENING WITH FOLKS NOT HURRYING OUT BUT FELLOWSHIPPING UNTIL THE DOORS WERE CLOSED AND LOCKED. THE MUSIC WAS GREAT AND OLD FASHIONED, THE KIND THAT "MAKES RICK WARREN UNHAPPY" BUT HONORS GOD. ALL IN ALL IT WAS A WONDERFUL MEETING ACCORDING TO PASTOR WINDGARD AND WE EVANGELIST KNOW FULL WELL WHEN THE PASTOR IS HAPPY WITH THE RESULTS GOD USUALLY IS HAPPY ALSO. IF ANY OF YOU EVER FIND YOURSELF IN THE GREENVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA AREA, AYDEN IS JUST TEN MILES AWAY - DROP IN AND THESE FOLKS WILL LOVE YOU SO MANY WAYS YOU ARE BOUND TO LIKE SOME OF THEM!

2010-10-09T21:21:00.000-04:00

FOURTEEN YEARS AGO I HELD MY FIRST MEETING AT COMMUNITY WHERE PASTOR ROBERT OHLMANN IS PASTOR. HE HAD BEEN THERE ONE YEAR AND DUE TO AN UNUSUAL STORY. THE FORMER PASTOR HAD BEEN KILLED, RUN OVER BY A WRECKLESS YOUNG DRIVER WHO ALMOST TOOK THE PASTOR'S WIFE'S LIFE AS WELL. ROBERT AND PASTOR MAUCK AND I HAD BEEN FRIENDS FROM THEIR DAYS IN NEBRASKA AND WHEN PASTOR MAUCK WAS KILLED THE CHURCH CALLED HIS FRIEND ROBERT OHLMANN TO BE PASTOR. HE HAS DONE A WONDERFUL JOB AND IS TO BE COMMENDED. WE HAD UNTOLD NUMBERS OF GOOD DECISIONS THIS WEEK ON THE OLD FASHIONED ALTAR AS GOD MET WITH US. MUCH WAS DEALT WITH AND THE PASTOR'S ARMS LIFTED AND THE BARK TAKEN OFF THE DEVIL AND HIS CROWD.

2010-09-23T08:31:00.001-04:00

THE MEETINGS THIS WEEK WERE PERHAPS THE BEST THAT I HAVE HAD THUS FAR THIS YEAR. THE CROWDS WERE GREAT AND THE RESPONSES TO THE LEADERSHIP OF THE HOLY SPIRIT WERE BEYOND DESCRIPTION. THE ALTARS WERE FULL TO OVERFLOWING EACH NIGHT ESPECIALLY WEDNESDAY EVENING. I PREACHED MY FIRST MEETING HERE NINETEEN YEARS AGO, PASTOR LEATHERMAN WAS HERE THEN AND HAS "GROWN THE CHURCH" TO IT'S PRESENT SIZE. DUNCANSVILLE IS NEAR ALTOONA SO SHOULD YOU BE IN THIS AREA BE SURE TO STOP BY, YOUR HEART WILL BE BLESSED I PROMISE!

CLEVELAND BAPTIST CHURCH

2010-09-13T08:11:00.000-04:00

WHAT A DAY WE HAD AT CLEVELAND BAPTIST CHURCH THIS PAST SUNDAY. PERHAPS A THOUSAND FOLKS WERE IN ATTENDANCE FOR A "CIVIL SERVANTS" DAY. GREAT TO SEE ALL THOSE "COPS" AND "FIREMEN" PRESENT, ALONG WITH ELECTED OFFICIALS FROM THE CITY OF CLEVELAND. I WAS MOVED BY THE WARMNESS OF THE PEOPLE AND THE CAREFUL AND WELCOME CARE OF THE PASTOR AND HIS STAFF. PASTOR FOLGER IS A KIND AND GENEROUS PASTOR WITH A WONDERFUL WIFE AND FAMILY. GREAT ALTAR CALLS BOTH MORNING AND EVENING WITH SOME SALVATION DECISIONS (THE NUMBER I AM NOT CERTAIN OF). ON YOUR NEXT TRIP TO CLEVELAND BY SURE TO ATTEND THIS GREAT CHURCH, GOD WILL BLESS YOU!

BIBLE BAPTIST CHURCH, LEOLA, PA

2010-09-11T20:48:00.000-04:00

WHAT A WONDERFUL KIND AND WARM CHURCH THIS IS, RIGHT IN THE HEART OF AMISH AND MINONITE COUNTRY. SHOULD YOU VISIT IN LANCASTER COUNTY, PA. YOU MUST PLAN TO ATTEND A SERVICE HERE AT BBC.

CHUCK COFTY, D. D.

Grace Baptist Church in Dinwiddie, VA

2010-08-12T03:36:00.000-04:00

Hello Brother Cofty this is Garth Bowler from Grace Baptist Church in Dinwiddie, VA. I just wanted to thank you so much for helping me find Christ yesterday. I had to let you know that I am so thankful now that I have been saved from hell for all of eternity and that I will be able to sing in heaven with my family. I wish you can see the way my life has changed since I have been saved. I was a strong curser until yesterday! Earlier this year I got in trouble at school for chewing tobacco and I had been chewing for about three years and I had the urge to have a dip (chew) a few days before. But I listened to what you said on Sunday about you smoking cigarettes and I asked God to help me and I haven't had the urge at all! So I just wanted to say thank you so much. I will never forget that day and I will never forget about you. I hope to see you again before we all go to heaven to be with God! I am a new man thanks to you.
Thank you!!

Sincerely,
Garth Bowler

GRACE BAPTIST CHURCH, PETERSBURG, VA. PASTOR RALEIGH NUNNERLY - GREAT DAY AT GRACE, PREACHED THREE TIMES AND HAD ONE YOUNG FOURTEEN YEAR OLD YOUNG MAN SAVED IN THE MORNING SERVICE. HE WAS BACK THAT EVENING WITH HIS DAD. WHAT A WONDERFUL SIGHT - TO SEE HIS DAD STANDING WITH HIM WITH GREAT BIG TEARS FLOWING FROM HIS HAPPY HEART. IT NEVER GETS OLD, THE LIFE OF THE SAINTS AND ESPECIALLY THOSE NEWLY BORN AGAIN. PASTOR NUNNERLY HAS BEEN WITH GRACE FOR ALMOST THIRTY YEARS, A WONDERFUL FINE MAN AND TERRIFIC PREACHER AND PASTOR. IF ANY OF YOUR ARMY FRIENDS ARE HEADED TO FORT LEE BE SURE TO RECOMMEND GRACE, THEY WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED.

CLOSE OF THE JUBILEE (36TH) AT TRINITY BAPTIST CHURCH WAS A SAD AFFAIR!

2010-08-09T05:22:00.000-04:00

SAD BECAUSE IT WAS DIFFICULT TO LEAVE THESE WONDERFUL PEOPLE AS WELL AS ALL THAT PARTICIPATED IN THE MEETING. THE PREACHING WAS EXTROIDINARY WITH RONNIE SIMPSON, JACK TRIPP AND BILL BEHRENS PREACHING MESSAGES WITH THE POWER OF GOD ON THEM, I HAVE BEEN PREACHING IN THIS CAMP MEETING FOR MANY YEARS BUT THIS JUBILEE WAS THE BEST THAT I PERSONALLY HAVE EVER BEEN INVOLVED WITH AS GOD MET WITH US; FOLKS WERE SAVED AND AN UNTOLD NUMBER OF GOOD DECISIONS MADE ON THE OLD FASHIONED ALTAR ACCOMPANIED BY STUNNING TESTIMONIES OF GOD'S WORKING. I WAIT WITH GREAT ANTICIPATION THE JUBLIEE OF 2011 (ALWAYS THE FIRST FULL WEEK IN AUGUST). PASTOR BOB WINSTEAD AND HE FOLKS DESERVE A GREAT SALUTE OF THANKS AND GRATIFICATION FOR THEIR DILLIGENT WORK BOTH DURING AND PRIOR TO THE MEETING. THE FOOD WAS THE BEST "EVER", I NORMALLY ONLY EAT ONE MEAL A DAY BUT NOT HERE, I HAD TO GET IN ON IT AND HAVE AT THE LEAST TWO EVERY DAY. IT'S PREPAREATION IS ALWAYS CAREFULLY ACCOMPLISHED WITH EVERYTHING CLEANLY PREPARED. EVERY FACILITY IS AIR CONDITIONED SO THE HOTTEST OF WEATHER IS OF NO CONSEQUENCE.

IF YOU HAVE NEVER BEEN TO A CAMP MEETING YOU NEED TO COME AT LEAST ONCE, YOU WILL COME BACK THE FOLLOWING YEAR.

MUSIC THIS YEAR WAS PROVIDED BY BYRON FOXX, ROBBIE MULLINEX, THE MARVIN WEST FAMILY AND THE CHURCH CHOIR. IT WAS "CAMP MEEING" TIME AROUND THE OLE CHURCH HOUSE WITH THE MUSIC AND SINGING LIKE MOST HAVE NEVER HEARD.

PLAN TO COME AUGUST 1-5, 2011, ALL MEALS DINNER AND SUPPER ARE FREE - YOU PROVIDE YOUR OWN LODGING (WE ALWAYS STAY AT THE JAMISON INN) - YOU WILL NEVER REGRET THE LORD'S LEADING SHOULD HE LEAD YOU HERE TO WILSON, NORTH CAROLINA AND THE TRINITY BAPTIST CHURCH! SEE YOU THERE!

THIRTY-SIXTH ANNUAL JUBILEE AT TRINITY BAPTIST CHURCH

2010-08-03T08:57:00.001-04:00

THE JUBILEE STARTED OFF WITH TWO WONDERFUL MESSAGES BY PASTOR RONNIE SIMPSON AND EVANGELIST BILL BEHRENS. BOTH HIT IT OUT OF THE BALL PARK. THE CROWD WAS LARGER THAN I HAVE SEEN IT IN YEARS AND THE SPIRIT WONDERUL. IT WAS LIKE OLE TIMES AS FOLKS SHOUTED AND REJOICED WITH GREAT FERVOR. THE OLD FASHIONED MUSIC WAS ALSO GREAT WITH FOUR DIFFERENT GROUPS PROVIDING THE MUSIC. THE MARVIN WEST FAMILY; ROBBY MULLINAX; BYRON FOXX AND THE CHURCH CHOIR. HOORAY FOR THE OLD TIME GOSPEL WAY AND RATS ON THE RICK WARREN WAY - WE REALLY DO NOT CARE WHAT SADDLE BACK SAM WANTS WE WANT WHAT GOD WANTS AND GOD WANTS HIS PEOPLE TO REJOICE AND USE THE OLD KING JAMES BIBLE.

LIFEGATE BAPTIST CHURCH, CHICOD, NC.

2010-08-02T08:30:00.000-04:00

WHAT A WONDERFUL TWO DAYS WE ENJOYED, FIRST A COOKOUT FOR EVERYONE ON SATURDAY EVENING (FORMALLY TO BE A MEN’S MEETING) BUT PASTOR WANTED TO INCLUDE THE CHURCH AND INVITED SEVERAL OTHER CHURCHES WHICH CAME AND DID WE EVER HAVE A TIME. AFTER WE ATE WE ALL RETIRED TO THE AUDITORIUM WHERE WE ENJOYED THEN A MEAL FROM THE OLD BOOK. THE PHYSICAL MEAL WAS SCRUPTIOUS BUT THE SPIRITUAL MEAL WAS TWICE AS GOOD. SUNDAY – ALL THREE SERVICES THE DEAR LORD SHOWED HIMSELF MIGHTY AS EACH SERVICE WAS FILLED WITH A SWEETNESS THAT ONLY COMES FROM THE PRESENCE OF HIS SPIRIT. THE ALTAR WAS FULL BOTH MORNING AND EVENING – TEARS OF JOY FOR LIVES TOUCHED BY THE LORD WERE PRESENT AND MANY DECISIONS MADE FOR GODLY LIVING. THE LORD WILLING WE WILL “DO IT AGAIN” NEXT YEAR!

FREEDOM BAPTIST CHURCH, HAVELOCK, NC

2010-07-07T03:04:00.000-04:00

PASTOR KOHR TOOK THIS PASTORATE IN 2008 WITH THE CHURCH ALMOST IN TOTAL DISREPAIR AND IT'S REPUTATION SOILED, NOT SO ANY MORE. PASTOR AND HIS FOLKS HAVE TURNED EVERYTHING AROUND AND ARE DOING A GREAT JOB FOR GOD. THE SERVICES ON THE FOURTH WERE WELL RECEIVED AS WERE THE SERVICES ON THE FIFTH AS FOLKS FROM SEVERAL LOCAL CHURCHES CAME TO HELP WITH THE MEETING. THE CHURCH WAS FILLED WITH VISITORS AND THE OLD FASHIONED ALTAR FULL. PASTOR KOHR WAS BESIDE HIMSELF TO SAY THE LEAST. MONDAY EVENING WAS A MILITARY RECOGNIGATION SERVICE WHERE MILITARY MEMBERS, BOTH ACTIVE OR FORMER, WERE PRESENTED WITH A UNITED STATES LEPAL FLAG. TUESDAY EVENING IS TO BE A FIRST RESPONDER TRIBUTE. PRAY WITH US FOR SOULS TO BE SAVED AND THE SAINTS UPLIFTED.

Who Are The Real Enemy?

2010-06-26T03:52:00.002-04:00

WHEN ASKED WHO ARE THE REAL ENEMY- THE GENERAL REPLIED, "THE WIMPS IN THE WHITE HOUSE."

STAND BY YOUR GUNS GENERAL, WHEN IT COMES TO WARFARE, FINANCE AND ADMINISTRATION WE ARE BEING RUN BY A HOUSE FULL OF SOPHMORE'S. AMERICA HAS BECOME A VERY LARGE "PAPER TIGER" WITH NO TEETH AND NO MONEY, CHINA IS NOW OUR "SUGAR DADDY". WE ARE THE LAUGHING STOCK OF THE WORLD AS EVERYONE SEE'S WHO IS RUNNING THE WHITE HOUSE - CURLY, LARRY AND MO - AND THEM JOKING AND LAUGHING ABOUT THE RESULTS OF THEIR CHILDISH DECISIONS. TO MAKE IT EVEN WORSE.

OBAMA'S REPRESENTATIVE GIBB'S IS A FULL FLEDGE, ONE HUNDRED PERCENT IDIOT WITH AN EGO THE SIZE OF AN ELEPHANT. HOW RIDUCLOUS HIS COMMENTS ABOUT MATTERS OF GREAT IMPORTANCE. WE NEED TO GIVE THEM ALL THE BOOT AT THE POLLING PLACE!

MAPLE GROVE BAPTIST CHURCH, CANTON, NC. - PASTOR TOMMY CARSISLE

2010-06-22T20:49:00.001-04:00

PASTOR CARSISLE CALLED THIS MORNING JUST AFTER HE RECEIVED WORD THAT HIS NEPHEW WAS SHOT TO DEATH YESTERDAY. HE AND SOME FRIENDS WERE SHOOTING POOL AND SOME SORT OF CONFRONTATION TOOK PLACE AND AN OLDER MAN ANGRILY WENT TO HIS TRUCK AND CAME BACK AND SHOT AND KILLED HIS NEPHEW. HE ATTEMPTED TO SHOOT THE OTHERS BUT THEY WRESTLED THE GUN AWAY FROM HIM AND HELD HIM UNTIL THE POLICE COULD GET THERE. THE MAN HAD RECENTLY BEEN LEFT OUT OF THE LOCKUP FOR ATTEMPTED MURDER. THIS ALL TOOK PLACE IN BAINBRIDGE, GEORGIA. I LIVED IN BAINBRIDGE AS A YOUNG EIGHT GRADE BOY. TOMMY WILL BE THERE FOR THE MORNING SERVICE AND THEN TAKE OFF FOR SOUTH GEORGIA AND BE GONE UNTIL TUESDAY. PRAY FOR THE FAMILY. THE DECEASED WAS SAVED.

SUNDAY AND MONDAY WERE GREAT SERVICES WITH FOLKS RESPONDING AND THE ALTAR FULL. MONDAY EVENING WE HAD A TWELVE YEAR OLD YOUNG GIRL ACCEPT THE LORD AND WAS DEALT WITH BY PASTOR'S WIFE. WHAT A BLESSING IT IS WHEN GOD SAVES A DEAR SOUL. PASTOR IS BACK AND CALLED THIS MORNING. THE FUNERAL WENT AS WELL AS COULD BE EXPECTED. IT IS GOOD TO HAVE HIM BACK.

LIGHTHOUSE BAPTIST CHURCH, SPRINGEDALE, AR.

2010-06-12T18:32:00.000-04:00

WHAT A WONDERFUL CLOSE OUT FOR THE MEETINGS HERE AT LIGHTHOUSE AS THREE DEAR SOULS WERE SAVED LAST EVENING - ALL VISITORS. ONE EIGHTEEN YEAR OLD YOUNG MAN, A VISITING LADY WHO HAD BEEN INVITED BY A MEMBER AND HER ELEVEN YEAR OLD NEPHEW RECEIVED THE LORD LAST EVENING. NEEDLESS TO SAY WE WERE ALL REJOICING AND HARDLY ABLE TO SLEEP. THIS IS A NEW WORK AND AS ANYONE WHO HAS BEEN AROUND FOR AT LEAST A WEEK KNOWS HOW DIFFICULT IT IS TO START A CHURCH IN AMERICA. IT IS AN "UP AND DOWN" SITUATION, FILLED WITH JOY AND DISCOURAGEMENT, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU DESIRE TO FOUND A CHURCH THAT IS BIBLICAL. A NO NONSENSE STYLE OF WORSHIP, GOOD MUSIC THAT HONORS GOD, A RIGHT BIBLE AND PRAYER AS THE FOUNDATION. THE CALDWELL'S HAVE DONE JUST THAT AND WHAT A JOY IT WAS TO BE WITH THEM. WONDERFUL CHILDREN WITH OLD FASHIONED MANNERS, THE KIND THAT ONE HARDLY SEE'S IN AMERICA ANY MORE.

ANY OF YOU WITH A FEW EXTRA SHECKELS PRAY ABOUT SUPPORTING THIS GREAT EFFORT, YOU WILL BE BLESSED AND IF YOU ARE EVER IN THE NORTHWEST PART OF ARKANSAS BE SURE TO VISIT THIS CHURCH.

LIGHTHOUSE BAPTIST CHURCH, SPRINGDALE, AK.

2010-06-07T04:15:00.000-04:00

GREAT START TO THE MEETINGS HERE IN SPRINGDALE. PASTOR CALDWELL AND HIS FAMILY ARE TOPS AND DOING A GREAT JOB FOR THE LORD IN THIS PART OF THE COUNTRY. THE SUPPORTERS OF CHURCH PLANTING ARE INVESTING IN WHAT IS TO BECOME A GREAT WORK ONE DAY. A WORK THAT IS BIBLICAL AND STRAIGHT AS A GUN BARREL. THE MUSIC IS RIGHT, THE DRESS IS RIGHT, THE STANDARDS HIGH AND THE BIBLE OF COURSE IS THE KING JAMES. LIGHTHOUSE HAS A GREAT TEMPORARY PLACE TO MEET IN AS DO MANY CHURCHES IN THEIR START UP PERIOD. PRAY FOR THIS WORK AND THIS GREAT FAMILY.

2010-05-25T19:28:00.001-04:00

ONE OF THESE MEN HAD BEEN PRAYED FOR SINCE TUESDAY EVENING (BY HIS GRANDDAD) AND HE CAME AND THE LORD SAVED HIM. THE OLD FASHIONED ALTAR WAS FULL ON OUR LAST EVENING WITH DEAR FOLKS DOING BUSINESS WITH THE LORD. WHAT AN EVENING THIS WAS AS WE FINISHED WITH A TESTIMONY TIME AND THEN FELLOWSHIP WITH ALL KINDS OF GOODIES.

GREAT BEGINNING TO A WEEK OF REVIVAL MEETINGS HERE AT FELLOWSHIP AS SIX DEAR SOULS INDICATED THAT THEY ACCEPTED THE LORD SUNDAY MORNING. THEN IN THE EVENING SERVICE THE OLD FASHIONED ALTAR WAS FULL.

HUNTERDALE BAPTIST CHURCH, HUNTERDALE, VIRGINIA - PASTOR HOWARD VINSON

2010-05-12T10:26:00.000-04:00

WE ENJOYED A GREAT WEEK TOGETHER WITH THE ALTAR USED EXTENSIVELY BY BOTH THE FOLK OF THE CHURCH AS WELL AS THOSE VISITING. PASTOR HAS BEEN HERE FOR THIRTY-FIVE YEARS AND IS STILL GOING STRONG. HUNTERDALE IS ON THE WEST SIDE OF FRANKLIN, VIRGINIA AND FULL OF WONDERFUL CHRISTIAN PEOPLE. THE TOWN HAS BEEN HIT VERY HARD BY THE CLOSING OF THE PAPER MILL - THE BIGGEST EMPLOYER IN THE AREA WHO EMPLOYED THIRTEEN HUNDRED PEOPLE. I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT ANYONE WAS SAVED BUT I DO KNOW OF MANY MAKING DECISIONS ON THE OLD FASHIONED ALTAR. I WAS FIRST HERE TWENTY-THREE YEARS AGO.

Pre-Meeting Praise

2010-04-23T13:40:00.001-04:00

I ALWAYS ATTEMPT TO ARRIVE EARLY FOR SERVICES AND STAY LATE. THURSDAY AT WILLIAMSBURG INDEP. BIBLE BAPTIST CHURCH I WAS STANDING OUTSIDE WAITING TO WELCOME THOSE MAKING THEIR WAY TO THE SERVICES. A VAN PULLED UP WITH THREE PEOPLE IN IT, I WALKED OVER TO GREET THEM WHEN I HEARD THE MAN ASKED FOR THEM TO GO ON INSIDE "THAT HE HAD SOMETHING HE WANTED TO TALK WITH ME ABOUT PRIVATELY".........SOMETIMES THIS CAN BE NOT SO GOOD BUT IN THIS CASE IT WAS WONDERFUL. THE MAN, FIFTY-SIX YEARS OLD, INDICATED TO ME THAT HE HAD GONE AS FAR AS HE COULD. I ASKED EXACTLY WHAT HE MEANT AND HE SAID "I NEED TO BE SAVED"........"I WOULD HAVE LET YOU KNOW ON TUESDAY EVENING BUT I AM AFRAID OF CROWDS".......THE LORD LET ME HELP HIM IN HIS DECISION TO TAKE CHRIST AS HIS SAVIOUR......HE PRAYED AND ASK FOR GOD'S FORGIVENESS AND FOR THE DEAR LORD TO SAVE HIM..........I PRAYED AND THANKED THE LORD FOR THIS UNSPEAKABLE OPPORTUNITY AND WE WALKED INTO THE CHURCH TOGETHER. HE INFORMED PASTOR OF HIS DECISION AND NEEDLESS TO SAY THERE WAS REJOICING. HE UNDERSTANDS THAT WHEN BAPTISED HIS SALVATION WILL BE MADE PUBLIC!

WILLIAMSBURG INDEPENDENT BIBLE BAPTIST CHURCH, PASTOR CHUCK SPROWLS

2010-04-21T18:04:00.003-04:00

PASTOR SPROWLS HAS BEEN THE PASTOR HERE FOR TWENTY-ONE YEARS. WE HAVE HAD GOOD MEETINGS SO FOR THIS WEEK WITH THE OLD FASHIONED ALTAR BEING USED GREATLY. THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL CHURCH NESTLED IN THE MOUNTAINS OF CENTERAL PENNSYLVANIA AND COMPLETLY SURROUNDED BY LARGE MOUNTAINS. THE VIEWS ARE SIMILIAR TO THE PAINTINGS OF NORMAN ROCKWELL AND THE PEOPLE VERY KIND AND ATTENTIVE. WE HAVE HAD A LARGE NUMBER OF VISITORS EACH SERVICE WITH PASTOR JOHN LEATHERMAN AND MANY OF HIS FOLKS FROM HIS GOOD CHURCH IN ATTENDANCE LAST EVENING WITH PASTOR LEATHERMAN SINGING THE OFFRATORY. IF YOU ARE HEADED TOWARD PENN STATE THIS CHURCH IS JUST FIFTY MINUTES EAST. TRY IT - YOU WILL LIKE IT AND WANT TO STAY.

AFTERNOON OF THE 21ST A LADY FROM THE CHURCH WITH A THIRTY YEAR SON WHO IS A DRUG ADDICT ASK IF I WOULD MEET WITH HIM IN AN ATTEMPT TO LEAD HIM TO THE LORD. I MET WITH JOHN THIS AFTERNOON, HE SAID THAT HE HAD BEEN SAVED; I ASK HIM AND SHOWED HIM 11 COR 5:17 AND HE SAID THAT HE HAD NOT CHANGED WHEREUPON I SAID IN ALL PROBABILITY YOU HAVE NEVER BEEN SAVED. HE AGREED AND PRAYED WITH ME THAT THE LORD WOULD FORGIVE HIM AND SAVED HIM. WE WALKED BACK TO THE PASTOR'S HOME WITH JOHN NOW ON HIS WAY TO HEAVEN AND A PROMISE THAT HE WOULD BE IN THE SERVICE TONIGHT. PRAISE THE LORD!

CAPITOL CITY BAPTIST IS A GREAT CHURCH WITH A GREAT PASTOR. PASTOR MOORE IS MOVING THE CHURCH FORWARD WITH AGRESSIVE SOUL WINNING AND PREACHING.

PINE BLUFF BAPTIST CHURCH, ALBANY, GA. PASTOR KEITH SMITH

2010-03-05T06:38:00.001-05:00

THE MEN'S ADVANCE HELD AT VENTURE OF FAITH CAMP IN VALDOSTA, GA. WAS ONE OF THE BEST I HAVE HAD THE PLEASURE TO ATTEND AND BE A PART OF. SEVERAL CHURCHES WERE REPRENTED FROM FLORIDA AS WELL AS GEORGIA. THE ATTENDANCE WAS PERHAPS ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY OR SO, THE FOOD WAS OUT OF THIS WORLD AND MANY OF THE MEN MADE LIFE CHANGING DECISIONS IN THE AREA OF THE HOME AND THE WIFE. WHAT A JOY IT WAS TO BE A PART OF THIS.

SUNDAY I PREACHED ALL DAY AT PINE BLUFF BAPTIST CHURCH IN ALBANY, GA. WHERE PASTOR KEITH SMITH IS PASTOR. THE CHURCH WAS FULL ON SUNDAY WITH PERHAPS THREE HUNDRED AND FIFTY MEMBERS, ONE LADY WAS SAVED IN THE AM SERVICE AND THE OLD FASHIONED ALTAR FULL BOTH AM AND PM SERVICES. THIS IS A GREAT OLD FASHIONED SOUTHERN CHURCH WITH OLD FASHIONED MUSIC - THE KIND THAT I WOULD LOVE TO PREACH IN EVERY WEEK. IF YOU ARE DOWN THIS WAY BE SURE TO STOP IN, MEET THE PASTOR AND HIS FAMILY (WIFE AND THREE SWEET DAUGHTERS) AND THE FRIENDLY MEMBERS OF PINE BLUFF.

Venture Faith Camp

2010-03-05T06:37:00.001-05:00

I was at venture faith camp I really enjoyed the messages that God gave you to preach to us at the Men's Advance. I needed them as God had been dealing with me on some things in my life about my wife. I thank God for 40 years of marrage to her, I got saved at the age of 51 at my boy's funeral 2001, now I am serving as one of the deacons at Bethel Baptist Church in Thomson Ga. I am looking forward to seeing you again .I was the one with the slick hair cut on secound row in middle. God Bless You and Your Wife and family. Brother Don

Revival

2010-02-22T05:59:00.001-05:00

Brother Cofty:

We enjoyed every minute of the revival: You stepping on our toes; the Holy Spirit's convictions through your preaching; you socking it to us good, that we had to hang our heads in shame. But, we mostly enjoyed seeing sinners saved, the backsliders getting right with the Lord and saints getting motivated and encouraged. You were truly a blessing! We apporeciate your wife allowing you to visit us (smile). Please give her our best regards.

Thanks for a "job well done".

Mrs. Burns
Secretary.

THE LORD ALLOWED ME TO SPEAK TO ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY OR MORE SENIOR MARINE STAFF NCO'S TODAY AT 13:30. I SPOKE TO THEM ABOUT LEADERSHIP FROM THE HEART AND OF COURSE SMOTHERED IT IN CHRISTIANITY. THE LORD WAS SO PRESENT AS THESE WERE HARDENED MARINES WITH AT LEAST TWO AND SOME WITH FIVE TOURS IN SOUTH WEST ASIA. THIS IS THE ABSOLUTE BACKBONE OF THE MARINE CORPS AND I FELT SO PLEASED THAT I WAS ALLOWED TO ADDRESS THEM. THEY SAT FOR FORTY MINUTES WITH RAPT ATTENTION. TO ALL OF YOU THAT PRAYED, THE LORD ANSWERED YOUR PRAYERS, THANK YOU. PASTOR AND SOME OF HIS STAFF WERE ALSO PRESENT AND INDICATED ENORMOUS PLEASURE IN THE PRESENTATION. THERE WAS A LOUD AND PROLONGED APPLAUSE AFTER I HAD PRAYER WITH THEM AND OVER THEM. GOD BE PRAISED!

AS USUAL PASTOR LAWSON AND HIS CHURCH WERE OUTSTANDING IN THE PREPARATION AS THE GYM WAS SET UP WONDERFULLY. THE FOOD WAS EXCEPTIONAL, HOWEVER THE ATTENDANCE WAS SOMEWHAT DOWN. I THINK IT WAS DUE TO THE RAIN - IT WAS ALL DAY AND WAS STILL RAINING WHEN WE BEGAN. THANK YOU PASTOR LAWSON AND THANK YOU AL SKINNER FOR ALL THAT YOU DO TO MAKE THIS MEETING A SUCCESS. THIS WAS THE 23RD WILD GAME DINNER AT FAITH, WHAT A BLESSING TO HAVE BEEN PRESENT IN ALL OF THEM.

WESTSIDE BAPTIST CHURCH, BRUNSWICK, OH.

2009-11-10T01:49:00.000-05:00

PASTOR DAVIS BECAME THE PASTOR IN 2005 WITH A VERY SMALL GROUP OF FOLKS (PERHAPS THIRTY FIVE) AND THE CHURCH BASICALLY ON IT'S LAST LEGS - MANY HAD SAID TO "JUST LET IT DIE"......PASTOR DAVIS KNEW THAT THE LORD WANTED A VIBRANT CHURCH HERE IN THIS AREA AND BEGAN IMMEDIATELY TO REBUILD. THE NAME WAS CHANGED AS WAS THE DIRECTION AND PASTORIAL LEADERSHIP. THE LORD HAS WROUGHT A GREAT VICTORY HERE WITH THE CHURCH NOW RUNNING ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY FIVE OR SO. IT IS A BEAUTIFUL PLACE TO WORSHIP. PASTOR DAVIS IS A WONDERFUL, MUCH LOVED, PASTOR WITH A CHURCH OF SWEET AND KIND PEOPLE. THE LORD SAVED FIVE DEAR SOULS SUNDAY WITH THE OLD FASHIONED ALTAR FULL ON SUNDAY EVENING. I CAN HARDLY WAIT TO SEE WHAT HE IS GOING TO DO TONIGHT.

GREAT HOPE BAPTIST CHURCH, CARSISLE, PA.

2009-10-07T08:27:00.000-04:00

THE MEETINGS CLOSED TONIGHT WITH A GREAT CROWD OF GREAT HOPE FOLKS AND SEVERAL VISITORS. TWO OF THE VISITORS, A YOUNG MAN AND HIS GIRLFRIEND WERE SAVED THIS EVENING AND ONCE AGAIN THE OLD FASHIONED ALTAR WAS IN USE. THE YOUNG MAN THAT WAS SAVED AND WAS ABOUT TO ENLIST IN THE MARINE CORPS, HEARD THAT I WAS PREACHING AT GREAT HOPE, AND CAME HE THOUGH, JUST TO TALK. WE TALKED ALL RIGHT BUT VERY LITTLE ABOUT THE CORPS AND LOTS ABOUT THE LORD. IF WE CAN JUST GET THE LOST UNDER THE SOUND OF THE GOSPEL THE LORD WILL SAVE THEM OR OPEN THEIR HEARTS FOR FOLLOW UP. ONE TWENTY-ONE YEAR OLD YOUNG LADY WAS SO CONVICTED ABOUT HER OWN PERSONAL STANDARDS OF DRESS THAT SHE AGREED WITH THE LORD TO WEAR CLOTHING THAT ONLY CHRISTIAN LADIES WEAR. CAN YOU HEAR ME SHOUTING ABOUT THIS? THE LORD CONVICTED ANOTHER LADY ABOUT HER PUNY EFFORTS TO HAVE HER DEVOTIONS AND BIBLE READING AT NIGHT AND PRAYING FOR VICTORIES OVER BATTLES THAT SHE HAD ALREADY LOST. SHE BEGAN THIS WEEK TO PRAY AND HAVE HER DEVOTIONS EARLY AND INDICATED THAT THE LORD HAD ALREADY CHANGED HER LIFE WITH VICTORY VICE DEFEAT.

GREAT HOPE BAPTIST CHURCH, CARSISLE, PA.

2009-10-05T08:26:00.000-04:00

WHAT A WONDERFUL DAY THE LORD GAVE HERE AT GREAT HOPE THIS LORD'S DAY.

THEN THE EVENING SERVICE WAS WELL ATTENDED AND THE OLD FASHIONED ALTAR WAS GREATLY USED. ONLY THE LORD KNOWS WHAT DECISIONS WERE MADE AND HOPEFULLY THERE WILL BE FRUIT THAT REMAINS. PRAY FOR GOD TO MEET WITH US AND TO HAVE HIS WAY IN THE HEARTS AND LIVES OF THESE GOOD PEOPLE. CARSISLE AS MANY OF YOU KNOW WAS THE WESTERN MOST OUTPOST OF THE ARMY BACK IN THE INDIAN WAR DAYS. IT IS NOW THE HOME OF CARSISLE BARRACKS WHERE THE U. S. ARMY HAS IT'S WAR COLLEGE. ATTENDEE'S AT THE COLLEGE ARE ALL LTCOL AND COLONEL AND USUALLY ARE SELECTEE'S HEADED FOR COMMAND DUTY AND GREATER PROMOTION. ONE MIGHT SAY THAT THIS IS THE CREAM OF THE CROP. PRAY FOR ME AS I WILL BE ADDRESSING A RATHER LARGE GROUP OF "CHRISTIAN MEN AND WOMEN" AT THEIR WEEKLY PRAYER SESSION. THIS IS AN HONOR AND GREAT OPPORTUNITY FOR A CLEAR PRESENTATION OF THE GOSPEL. SOME WILL INVITE THEIR LOST FRIENDS SO PRAY THAT THE LORD WILL SAVE SOME.

HE WAS WELL KNOWN IN THE COMMUNITY FOR HIS EXCELLENT CRAFT OF MAKING VIRTUALLY ANYTHING OUT OF RED OAK WOOD. IT WAS NOTHING THAT I DID BUT JUST AN ANSWER TO THESE FOLKS PRAYERS OVER A VERY LONG TIME. NEEDLESS TO SAY THEIR WAS A BIT OF EXCITEMENT IN THE CHURCH.
