Garment of Praise

Today is the day the Lord has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it. Come on, folks! Let us be glad in this our Lords day, which is everyday, you know. Rejoice, and again I say, rejoice. The Lord is good and His mercy endures forever.

Welcome, my friends, to your 24/7 week-long online church service. As we always say and mean, everyone, and we do mean everyone, is welcome in this place.

A lot has taken place this past week, my friends. On Wednesday, the 21st of this month, the doctors discovered I had two blockages in my right coronary artery. The devil would love to put me out of commission and close down the anointed Word of God from proceeding forth from this ministry. But God has another plan and the devil is a defeated foe. The doctor, a Muslim, was able to take care of both blockages with a long single stent. I thank God for using that Muslim doctor to help me out of serious trouble, my friends. You know I am always aware of Psalm 91 14-16.

"Because he has set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him; I will set him on high because he hath known my name. He shall call upon me and I shall answer him: I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him with long life will I satisfy him and show him my salvation."

Thank you my Father for long life. I will serve you, Lord, all the days of my life. Thank you, my friends for your prayers, emails and comments. You were a great source of strength for me. You did for me what a church is supposed to do. You lifted me up to the Father in prayer. We must always do that for each other.

Satan tried a double-punch effort on me this week. When my wife visited me in the hospital on Thursday, she had devastating news for me. My lifetime friend since fourth grade (fifty seven years), Nick Schloh, had a massive heart attack and passed away. Nick was quite a character. I often told him he was the most obnoxious man I knew. However, what most people didn't know, under that hard surface was a man filled with love for his family and, as evidenced many times, love for my family. He loved to tease our kids, my wife, and myself. He loved the "gotcha" moments. For over forty years, he called me, "Toad" and I called him, "Toad." Our wives were Mrs. Toad. This loss was like a punch to the gut. Toad and I talked on the phone at least every few days. I already miss his voice, his sarcasm, his teasing, but most of all, the love he had for us but didn't like to show. My tears would not stop Thursday, for I had truly lost, my best friend.

People asked me about, "do I think he was saved or not?" My answer to those types of questions are always the same. Our God is a fair and just God. Whatever reward Dr. Nicholas Schloh is supposed to receive, he will receive. What I do know is, I consider "the Toad," Dr. Schloh, to have been a gift from God in my life and he will be eternally missed by me and my family. So long, Dr. Schloh. I will always love and miss you. Our sympathy and prayers go out to his wife, Sue, and daughter, Michelle. Please pray for them this week.

I told you this was quite a week! Satan, I'm sure, thought this would discourage me and turn me away from God. But instead, I have chosen to put on a garment of praise for the Spirit of heaviness. Refer to Isiah 61:3:

"To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning (thank you Lord) the garment of praise for the Spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that He might be glorified."

You are glorified, my Lord. Thanks for your help in a time of trouble.

The subject last week was "then along came Jesus." I shared a couple of personal testimonies and asked you to submit any testimony you'd like to share. I was very pleased with the comments and emails we received. There are two testimonies that I would like to share with you. The first one is from my sister, Rose, in Louisiana. She relates how when God wants you to do something, He will provide for it. Please, do not fail to read this as it will encourage you and help build your faith. Thank you, Rosie. I love you and pray God's blessing on you and your family.

RoseMarie Baker Leleaux's testimony:

Wow Bob, wish that added comment had been posted a few hours earlier so I could have brought it up at church. I got your back Bro. Your pizza story stirred up my favorite 'God Will Provide' moment {and as a segue, let me just say that Brother Bob was not kidding, he is a pizza fanatic. On my first trip back home from my move to Louisiana, people asked about the alligators, the music, the craw fish and the weather, but Bob wanted to know "How's the pizza down there?"} I digress...While attending Spring Arbor College, a Methodist University, I became involved with an off campus, spirit filled charismatic bible study group. We would drive 40 miles to worship at a spirit filled church during the week. We heard that a prayer/praise rally was going to be held in Grand Rapids which was on the other side of the state. We prayed & the Lord was definitely leading us to attend. One guy had a small station wagon so we all crammed into that and headed west. About 20 miles out of town, the driver announced that he was on completely empty and oops! didn't have any money. So we all dug into our pockets and hah! big surprise, none of us college students had any money. At all. Gas was 0.72 a gallon. We had about 40 cents collectively.(What to do? No gas to go forward, no gas to make it back home. We decided that since God was sending us that God would deliver us. We pressed on with our empty tank and drove approximately 85 miles singing all the way. Upon our arrival, we were sought out by a gentleman who asked us if we were college students who had traveled there under trying circumstances. When we confirmed this he told us that the Lord had told him that he was to give us $20.00. Double miracle... we not only covered the state on fumes alone, we were funded for food and fuel on the trip home. God will provide!
Praying for you my dear brother!!
Rose.
The second testimony was sent by email from my niece in Michigan. A very touching testimony of God's love for us, even when we think we are not worthy of it. But, of course, we aren't, within ourselves but in Jesus, we are looked on as worthy by our Father in Heaven. As I read this testimony, tears were rolling down my face, as we once again see God's love and mercy toward us.

Barbara's testimony:

I didn't know you were a youth director of a church. ... I love this message. It reminds me when I was interning and Ashley and I were going through a transition. She was coming to live with me and I had little money and no child support from her father. (still don't and that was 5 years ago) I was trying to provide a good home and I was living in a one bedroom apartment and needed a 2 bedroom and I was behind in rent. I went to my place of interning 45 miles one way when gas was $3.50 a gallon, and a man that worked there approached me. He told me he and his wife tithe not to a church but to people God tells them to bless. No one there knew of my financial need and I had much faith that God would provide if this was meant to happen with Ashley and me. He said he wanted to give me $400.00. He never asked me if I needed it or not. He had no idea what I was going through. I understood that this beautiful person and his wonderful wife were living in a trailer and lived very modestly. Most people in my thinking of his caliber would live a lavish life style. His wife was a writer and had 2 books released already and he was a funding advisor for a counseling office. I felt I couldn't take the money because he knew nothing about me. I thought if he knew who I really was he wouldn't be giving it to me. I felt so unworthy. My past hasn't been the greatest and if he knew that ...... Anyway, I was in awe. Before I accepted the money I checked my motives. Did I take the money because I needed it. of course I did. I checked my heart. I had faith that God would provide and he was. I questioned myself and God. I continued to pray about it all day before I gave him an answer if I would accept it. My answer from the Lord was "this is a gift, use it for you and Ashley If you don't then you are throwing it back at God." The Holy Spirit also convinced me that it is not only my blessing but the person who is giving it to me who is blessed. I cried all the way home in amazement of how the Lord works. I also felt for the first time how the holy spirit works and feels. The Lord provides even when it doesn't feel like it now I know. He is working behind the scene all the time. With me witnessing how He works has strengthened me even in crisis. I have learned that in the present God is here even if we don't feel it. I learned this in hindsight. Hindsight has taught me to KNOW many times that God has been here all along.
Thanks for reminding me of these moments.
love ya
Barbara

Does not this testimony stir you, my friends? Barb, even though feeling unworthy, had not lost her confidence in her Heavenly Father and He rewarded her. Refer to Hebrews 10:35:

"Cast not away therefore you're confidence which has great recompence of reward"

To be sure that reward comes in many ways. However, in this situation, it was provision for a need. God bless you, Barb, for sharing this wonderful testimony. I pray God's blessing on you and your family. You are special, Barb. God loves you and will continue to supply your every need.

Well folks, I'm going to have to cut it off here for this week and get back to full recovery mode. Next week we will have more anointed, Holy Ghost teaching for you. This week, I am asking each of you to praise God in all things. God loves you, my friends. He really does.

God bless you,

Bro. Bob

Then along came Jesus

We made it folks!! Another week has gone by and we made it through. God is good and His mercy endures forever. Welcome to all who enter into this week's 24/7, week long online church service. Everyone is welcome in this place.

You know, ladies and gentleman, we have covered a lot of ground these last few months. Every step of the way has been based on the sure foundation of the Bible and on our Savior, Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God. He died on an old rugged cross. This same Jesus took stripes on His back for our healing and He bare our sins in His own body so we could be set free from the dominion of sin and death. Oh, my God, how thankful we must be for what you have done for us! Let us give thanks to God, my friends, for His love and mercy toward us. As we turn to I Peter 2:24, think back my friends, to before you gave your life to Jesus. No matter how much good we did, we were mired in sin. Sins of pride, lust and deeds. We were never what we really wanted to be, righteous and fulfilled. There was always something lacking. We were never quite satisfied. Then, along came Jesus. Now read I Peter 2:24.

“Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness; by whose stripes ye were healed.”

Yes, my friends, Jesus died and bore our sins. We have been set free. Sin now has no power over us. We can refuse sin in our life thanks to the sacrifice of our Savior, Jesus Christ.

My belief, based on the scripture, is that Jesus took those stripes on His back for our mental, physical and most of all, for our spiritual healing. Many believe physical and mental healing are not for today. But that way of thinking is not based on the Word of God, my friends. I am going to address the reasons for man's disbelief and many divisions of thought in the church and religious world. I will do so as soon as I am positive that what I am saying about that subject is based on truth and Spirit only, backed by the Word of God. The church world is now based too much on opinion and not fact based on the foundation of the Bible.

This week I would like to share some of the things God has done in my life since I accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior. This comes about from sharing with coworkers testimonials of God's goodness in our lives.

There was a time, many years ago, we had two young teens and three small children who are all grown now. It was a very bad economy, similar to the present time. I was laid off twenty-seven weeks that year and we were told that foreclosure on our home was imminent. We needed seven hundred dollars immediately to save our home. It might as well have been seven million dollars. We had no idea how to save our home or what to do. I was a youth director at a small Baptist church. Each Monday our church had visitation night and I would always take one teenager with me. This one Monday evening, a brother in the church asked if he could go on visitation with me, and the young teen go with his partner. He said it was important to him. This good brother and I visited a sick member of the church, prayed with him and had good fellowship. As we left the house Bro. Vaughn asked if I would like to share a pizza with him. Now, I must admit, I love pizza. But, I was embarrassed to say I didn't have any money on me to help pay my share. Bro. Vaughn noted my hesitance and quickly said “The pizza is on me, Bro. Bob.” So I quickly said “Yes!” Incidentally, the pizza was great. When we were done eating, this good brother in Christ said to me “Bro. Bob, do you have a financial need?” Now I must tell you, no one knew of this need but my wife and myself. I decided to admit the problem. I told him, but I did not say how much I needed. He looked me straight in the eyes and said “Bro. Bob, God spoke to my spirit and told me to give you seven hundred dollars.” He then proceeded to give me seven one-hundred dollar bills. He said I could not refuse. God had provided, my friends. I was and am so thankful! I went home with gladness and gratitude to God in my heart. When I entered the house I saw my wife writing a letter to her sister, telling her of our plight, but also telling her we had faith that God would provide. I laid the money on her letter and said “Our God has provided!” We were standing on the Word of God and He came through for us. Thank you Lord!

Paul said in a letter to the Philippians (believers), Philippians 4:19.

“But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.”

I have related this testimony to encourage you, my brothers and sisters. Stay strong in faith in your difficulty and your God will surely supply your every need.

The second testimony is about giving. I know many believers are put off by messages about giving because they see the abuse many so-called preachers have done to this very sound
doctrine.

Preachers who misuse God's provision by being gainsayers will answer to God, my friends. My wife and I were in a service at a charismatic/pentecostal church we attended for many years. We had a guest minister. He was preaching on giving, especially to missionaries who depend on our support to do their work and to provide for their personal needs. We were in prayer as to what and how much to give. The Spirit of God was moving in that place. There was a roaring silence. God was definitely speaking to hearts. I looked over at my wife and she was taking her wedding ring off. Now to be sure, our rings were not expensive as wedding rings go. We bought them both on sale for four hundred dollars. But to us they were priceless. Now my wife was depositing her priceless wedding ring in the collection basket. I was sort of shocked and to say the least surprised. I guess she noticed the look on my face and she whispered, “God told me to do this.” Ladies and gentleman, I don't always know much, but when my wife says “God told me to do this,” I let her do it.

About four months later I was preaching at a sister church in Sarnia, Canada when a sister in the Lord approached me (after the service). She said she was selling jewelry, would I like to look at her catalog? I saw this beautiful wedding ring and I thought of my wife and I really desired to get this ring for her. The cost was about sixteen-hundred dollars with payments of around thirty-five dollars monthly. I thought this would be God's blessing for Vicki, giving her ring in that collection, but of course I was wrong and underestimated once again the goodness of God. I told sister Emily I would take the ring and pay the thirty-five dollars monthly. She said “No Bro. Bob, I will give it to you for five dollars a month.”
What a blessing!

I wish you could have seen the look on my wife's face when I presented her with her new and better ring that God provided. Now that my friends, was priceless! Of course this is not the end of the blessing. I paid five dollars monthly for about four months. Sister Emily approached me again in Canada and asked if Vicki liked the ring. I told her “She loves it.”

Sister Emily then said “It is paid for.” She would not accept any more payments and said it was a blessing from God. By the way, my wife wears that ring to this day.

My friends, I have related this testimony to build your faith. Keep giving my good people. Give of your time, your effort and your substance and God will give back more than you can even imagine.

Refer to Luke 6:38, Jesus speaking:

“Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down and shaken together and running over, shall men give unto your bosom. For with the same measure that you mete withal it shall be measured to you again.”

Remember everyone, God's blessings will always be based on His Word. God loves you, my friends. He wants to be a help to you in this present time. Tell your heavenly Father what you need and trust that your help and blessing is on the way.

I admit this message has been directed mostly to believers. But, to my unbelieving friends, the only thing that is keeping you from being a believer is you. God is calling you today. The Holy Spirit is drawing you to God, my friend. Will you answer Him today? Accept the free gift of salvation today. Jesus paid the price!! Right now!! Say, Jesus come into my heart, save me Lord. I will turn from my sins and follow you. I believe in my heart and confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Savior and I make Him Lord of my life.

E-mail me today and let me know of your decision to follow and live for Jesus. Believers, e-mail me with your testimonies that I can share with others. Our e-mail address is brotherbob@thespiritofwisdom.org. Your comments and e-mails are a constant source of encouragement to this ministry. Let me conclude this message by quoting Acts 10:34-35:

“Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons: But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him.”

Are you accepted with Him, my friends? You can be, you know!!

God bless you,
Bro. Bob

An added comment:

Brother Bob is having a heart procedure performed this Wednesday (10/21/09). Our ministry is requesting prayer for Brother Bob. Pray that God will provide the physician with wisdom and healing skill. We expect that there will be an online church service next week.

JESUS: THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE




Welcome to this week's 24/7, week long online church service. This is a week filled with love, expectation and blessing. That is my prayer for everyone that joins in with us this week. As always my friends, everyone is welcome in this online church.

Set your problems, worries, and obstructions outside the door. Enter in and praise and worship God with us this week. God is so good and His mercy endures forever. God wants to bless you with all good things. He will be with you in trouble and if you turn to Him, He will deliver you out of every evil situation in your life.

I once did a sermon entitled “Bridge Over Troubled Waters.” I talked about how Jesus is our bridge over all our troubles of life. I think if I had it to do over again, I would add that Jesus is with us even when we are in the midst of our troubles. Just as Psalms 91 says. (Please read Psalm 91). It is by the power of God we not only come out of trouble, but that we go on to victory in every situation. God will supply us with wisdom and understanding in every area of our life. Do you want His help my friends? Everything pertaining to successful living is in His written word (the Bible). My advice is to open your Bible everyday. The directions for life are right there for you.

We look around us today and we see trouble on every hand: Wars, poverty, sickness and disease, man's inhumanity to man, corrupt and power driven governments and much more. How did this happen? How did we get to this point? The answer is more simple than we might think, my friends. Nation after nation, family after family, individual after individual have decided they know better than God how to live life today. Refer to Proverbs 14:12.

"There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.”

Man has devised so many ways to be successful, rich, and admired. But, if they are not God's ways, the end thereof is death. Men have turned to governments, to gurus, to preachers of false doctrine, to religions, to Buddha, to Mohammed, to Scientology and countless other guidelines of life. Any major or minor religion that does not preach and live Jesus Christ and Him crucified and that alone is preaching spiritual death. There is only one way to the Father and only one way to eternal salvation; and that is Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of our Father in heaven. Refer to John 14:6-7. Jesus speaking.

“Jesus saith unto him (Thomas), I am the way, the truth, and the life: No man cometh unto the Father, but by me. If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: And from henceforth, ye know him, and have seen him.”

How much more clear could it be, my good people? Jesus did not say He was a way. He said He is the way. The narrow way has no detours, my friends. The GPS to eternal life will only lead to and through Jesus. Jesus did not say He was a truth, He said He is the truth. There are many truths in this world that sound fair, good and desirable, but they are false truths; and in fact they are not truths at all. Truth by its own nature must be singular and Jesus alone is the truth. Jesus said the only way to the Father was through Him. Not one of the ways, but the only way. Jesus said once you had known Him, you will have seen the Father. Yes, once you accept and believe in Jesus, God will reveal Himself to you and only then, my friends.

Do you believe what Jesus is saying? Or, are you willing to call Him a liar? I know this is blunt and to the point. I would love to be more eloquent and soften this up for you, but I can't. There is a seriousness to this message that can't be played around with. I mentioned last week we are not guaranteed even one more second of life. Turn to Matthew 10:27 and please read with me. Jesus speaking:

“What I tell you in darkness, that speak ye in light; and what ye hear in the ear, that preach ye upon the house tops.”

Ladies and gentleman, that is what I am doing this week. What God is revealing to me, I am revealing to you. My message to believers this week is get back to the basics. Remember the excitement you felt when you were first saved? Oh my God, how wonderful you felt! There was a renewed sense of life and hope. Suddenly you loved people you couldn't stand. Forgiveness became a way of life. You would pray and know that God heard you and you would read the Bible and the words would become alive to you. You prayed for everyone you knew. You would lay hands on the sick and expect them to recover.You would not let a chance go by to tell others about Jesus. What has happened to you, my friends? Our Father is the same today as the day we got saved. Jesus is still the way, the truth and the life, my friends. He is still your savior, your Lord, your provider. Maybe it's time to get back in the Word. Renew your mind once again to God's way and abandon the ways of this dying and corrupt natural world. This world will tell you there are many ways to peace of mind, satisfaction, eternal goodness while leading you farther and farther away from your heavenly Father. Stop it now!! Enough is enough!!

Turn with me to Romans 12:2. In a letter to the Romans, Paul wrote:

“And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.”

There you are believers. Are you ready to live the fullness of the gospel again? Nonbelievers, I have preached truth to you. His name is Jesus. Let's do it together. Mothers and fathers, I know you have been struggling to do your best for your children. You are hard working so you can provide for there welfare. But, if you do not present Jesus to them, you are failing them. Please do not do that to them. Give them a home where Jesus is the head of the household. Read the Bible with them and above all, bring Jesus into your family and love each other as God loves you.

It's time my friends. Make Jesus Lord of your lives. Ask Jesus to forgive your sins. Turn away from the misleading paths of this world and get on the right way. His name is Jesus, and He is offering you salvation and eternal life as a free gift for you today. Will you accept??

God Bless you,
Bro. Bob

BE A DECIDER

It is hard to believe that another week has passed. I pray it has been a blessed week for you. If you know Jesus as your Lord and Savior, I know you are blessed in all things, regardless of the circumstances that surround and try to affect you. It is your reaction to these circumstances that will make the difference in victory or defeat. Remember, the Bible is your direction for living and prayer is your form of communication with our Lord.

Welcome, my good friends, to your 24/7 week long online church service. Everyone is welcome in this place. This church is not a social club for Christians only. Our mission is to preach Jesus to all. Our desire is to show you a pathway to the love and mercy of Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of our heavenly Father; the God above all gods.

Of course, my fellow Christians, this online church is for you also. Our desire for you is to help you stay on the narrow way (road) of eternal life. Refer to Matthew 7:13-14:

“Enter ye in at the strait gate: For wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.”

Unbeliever, you are already on the wide way (road) that leads to destruction. No matter how good life appears to you at this time. You may be successful on your job. You may have a good marriage. You may be a good and lovable person, yet destruction lies ahead. You are blindly heading toward the trap Satan has set for you. This is a warning from God today, my friend. Get off that road now!! Accept Jesus today as your Lord and Savior and follow the narrow way to life. The Holy Spirit will lead you unto eternal life and I guarantee you will be a better father/mother, husband/wife, friend, employee or employer than you ever thought possible on this earth.

Believers, it is so important that you stay on the narrow path. I remember when I lived near Detroit, Michigan, my sister Vicki and her family lived two hundred and thirty miles away in northern Michigan. Often times, when I would drive to visit her in the Michigan winters, there would be treacherous ice covering the highway. I would see cars in the ditches to the left and right of me. My solution was to drive as close to the middle of the road as possible. That way, if my car started sliding to the left or to the right, I would have enough room to make the correction and get the car under control. My advice to my believer friends is to stay in the middle of the narrow road to life. When the circumstances of life, the unfairness and realities of this world hit you, you will make the correction needed by turning to God for help. You will not slide off the narrow road leading to life onto the broad road of destruction and eternal death.

Today is a day of decision, my friends. We are not guaranteed even one more second of life on this earth. Will our decision be to live for God? Or will we decide to stay on the wide way that leads to destruction?

I remember a preacher snapping his fingers to illustrate a beating heart. As he talked, he just kept snapping those fingers, then all of a sudden he snapped one more time and stopped!! That, my friends, is how fragile life is. What decisions we make regarding Jesus should be made now!!


I remember when former President Bush said he was the “decider.” Many pundits and even myself made fun of that. But you know what? He was right. There is a time to become a decider and guess what? That time is now. A friend once said “God will call, wait for your acceptance, then equip you to do the job.” What job? That job of presenting Jesus to a lost and dying world. Look around you, my friends, don't you think the world needs Jesus today? God is waiting for our decision. As we decide to follow Him, He will equip us so we will not fail.

Believers, decide today to get back to the business of putting God first in your life. Get the Bible out again and decide to get the revealed Word of Truth down in your soul. Decide to let the Words of Life lead and guide you to share Jesus with others.

Nonbelievers, decide today that Jesus is the Son of God. Decide to accept Jesus as Lord and Savior in your heart. If it sounds like I am repeating myself, nonbeliever, I am. Ask Jesus for forgiveness of sins in your life. Ask Jesus to come into your heart today. Confess Jesus today as Lord and Savior of your life. Be a decider, my friends, be a decider.

Believers, decide to do the work He has done and even greater works. What? You don't think this can be done? Please turn with me to John 14:12 (Jesus speaking).

“Verily, verily (truly) I say unto you. He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do: Because I go unto my Father.”

You now must decide if you believe what Jesus said is true or not. Personally, I have decided to believe Him. So cheer up, my brothers and sisters, and run the race with joy unspeakable and full of glory. Drop sin and death from your life and replace it with Jesus, who is life.

I believe this message will be life saving and life changing today. Some people believe I am a dreamer. And you know what? I am. Refer to Joel 2:28.

“And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions.”
 
I could preach five sermons on this scripture alone, but the point is: I do dream, ladies and gentleman. I dream of all my children and grandchildren being saved and having eternal life. I dream of a world where Christians will be led by the Holy Spirit and follow the direction of the Bible rather than by false teachers and false doctrine. I dream of a Godly people that preach peace and not war as the solution to all problems between nations. After all, wasn't Jesus the Prince of Peace? And yes, I do know that there will be just reasons for war. But, I also know many wars are fought and many people have died because of wars that were waged for power, greed and profit. Armageddon, the war to end all wars, will surely come my friends. But God will be the architect of that war, that will usher in Jesus as King of Kings and Lord of Lords; not greedy and lustful men. I dream that the lost will find and accept Jesus and live eternally with the Father. Yes, my friends, I am a dreamer. I dream this online church will reach all who God intends it to reach. I have decided to be a decider. Today, my friends, my decision is to follow Jesus. How about you?

God Bless you,
Bro. Bob
