This past week, the US Supreme Court endorsed a change to the law of God, and will be supporting and promoting adultery by those that thumb their nose at God.  Those of the Book see persecution ahead for those that stand on the Word of God.  Will you stand with Joshua, no matter what others think?  Will you stand on the side of what’s right which may not be what is expedient?

May this be your prayer with me as we are in a battle, and in ever as much danger as the Israelites . . .

One can see signs of Sodom all around on these days
   With beebop and hippop and whatevers the craze
Internet news and the TV display
   Lewdness and mayhem by night and by day
But as for me an my house we will serve the Lord

Wars and rumors of wars in nations this world round
   Tempests and whirlwinds, and earthquakes abound
Distress of the nations, with no fixes in sight
    Countries are lawless pitting black against white
But as for me an my house we will serve the Lord

Mankind praising inventions and what he has done
  Even more than the tower at Babylon
Throw religion and politics right in the mix
  Without the Lords leading there will be no fix
But as for me and my house we will serve the Lord

To all this worlds trouble, its hunger and thirst
  And lonely tired people that strive to be first
They spread falsehoods of man and his fables too
  That you came from a monkey, their convinced that its true
But as for me and my house we will serve the Lord

And then there's the scandals that point out the greed
  And everyone has much more than they need
Worry and depression and drugs do abound
  Everyone worries where peace can be found
But as for me and my house we will server the Lord

So folks go on with eating and drinking with mirth
  And rewrite God’s laws on marriage and birth
They fill up with fast food and music that's so loud
  There's no way good angels could be in that crowd
But as for me and my house we will serve the Lord

So my friend please turn this way and never look back
  Let the Lord keep your mind through the devils attack
Take strength and take courage, and never turn away
  And say now with Joshua and myself on this day
But as for me and my house we will serve the Lord

You know back when the pilgrims came to our shores for freedom of religion and to follow the dictates of their consciences, they would not have envisioned the lawless land that has evolved, when our forefathers wrote the laws of this country, they did realize that freedom without the carnal restraint of a higher moral being would be not freedom at all, but that part cannot be codified.  We now have a tyrannical government, out of control, spineless men and women in power with no moral courage whatsoever that write laws that they break themselves.

It’s time my friends to find a new free land, where God reigns, as democracy cannot stand where there is no courage or commitment.  Its time to leave what was once a land of freedom, and bring your family with you to this new land. 

No we won’t be sailing on the Nina, Pinta, and Santa Maria, or on some intergalactic space ship.  God will not long endure what has transpired, but will come very soon to take His pilgrims to their eternal home.  Are you looking for that day?  I challenge you to stand with Joshua, no matter what others may do and say “As for Me and My House we will serve the Lord”

<![CDATA[A Sinking Ship]]>Wed, 18 Jan 2012 04:46:36 GMThttp://charlestownsdachurch.org/blog/first-postRecently there was a sinking of a cruise ship off the coast of the Italy that reminds us all of the classic disaster the Titanic, all were told that everything was going OK, the ship was capable of the worse that the sea could deliver.  Then all of a sudden things turned very bad.  This world is going on in the same respect as this ship, many are saying that this ship will not go down that all is fine, but we've seen the lights flicker, we've felt the floor tilting, we've had warnings.  Will we listen to the politicians that say that all is fine, to just be patient, all will be well, or will we pay attention to what Jesus said long ago to His disciples at the time in Matthew 24 to help them understand that they needed preparation to what was lying ahead of them.  As in the days of Noah, so shall it be in the days of the Son of Man.   LIke back in the days of Noah, very few are listening to the truth, but there is still time . . .time to find the Son of Man, now serving as the High Priest in the heavenly sanctuary.  In fact the Bible tells us that Jesus prays for us to His Father.  What a testimony of how He cares for you and loves you.  ]]>
