Seriously

"Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world." - I Peter 5:8-9

Dear Friends,

Some people are getting discouraged in their Christian walk

• Seriously

It's happening they say because they hear some folks talking about the Lord but not walking the walk

• Seriously

Say that folks are texting and sleeping and whining throughout the church service and complaining that it is everybody else's "fault"

• Seriously

There has been talk that personal opinion is elevated and that some folks prefer it to the Word of God

• Seriously

In the midst of all this chaos people are wondering why folks are out of order and seem to be acting odd

• Seriously

Reports are that situations like this are occurring in numerous churches and in several states

• Seriously

And if you have the audacity to confront, rebuke and correct with scripture you might be considered "out of place"

• Seriously

There is a Word from the Lord on all of these matters

Vain repetitions and useless chatter 

Unforgiving attitudes, idle talk, speaking evil of things you know not of

Slander, gossip and such---

sowing discord among the brethren, vowing and neglecting to pay, not denying oneself, insisting on having your way, being judgmental, failure to worship God in Spirit and truth, evil with the love of money at the root

• Seriously

The  remedy is in Jesus Christ alone. There is salvation in no other. He is the Lord. He reigns supreme. Jesus the Head of the Church the Elder Brother.

He said "I am the way, the truth and the life, no man cometh to the Father but by me."

He meant every word, nothing added nothing taken away...

Now is the time to get thing in order. Now. Right 

now!

• Seriously

"For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?" 

       - I Peter 4:17

in Christ,

Sis. Stephanie
