As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.

When satan comes knocking at your door, just say,
"Jesus, will you get that for me."

 

"Christian One-Liners"

 

 

"Don't let your worries get the
best of you. Remember, Moses
started out as a basket case"

 

Some people are kind, polite,
and sweet-spirited - until you
try to sit in their pews.

 

Many folks want to serve God,
but only as advisers

 

It is easier to preach ten
sermons than it is to live one.

 

The good Lord didn't create
anything without a purpose,
but mosquitoes and
sand gnats come close.

 

When you get to your wit's
end, you'll find God lives there.

 

People are funny, they want
the front of the bus, the middle
of the road, and the back of
the church.

 

Opportunity may knock once,
but temptation bangs on your
front door forever.

 

Quit griping about your church;
if it was perfect, you couldn't belong.

 

If the church wants a better
pastor, it only needs to pray
for the one it has.

 

God Himself does not propose
to judge a man until he is dead.
So why should you?

 

Some minds are like concrete,
thoroughly mixed up and
permanently set.

 

Peace starts with a smile.

 

I don't know why some people
change churches; what
difference does it make which
one you stay home from?

 

A lot of church members
who are singing "Standing
on the Promises" are just
sitting on the premises.

 

We were called to be witnesses,
not lawyers or judges

 

Be ye fishers of men.
You catch them - He'll clean them.

 

Coincidence is when God
chooses to remain anonymous.

 

Don't put a question mark
where God put a period.

 

Don't wait for 6 strong men
to take you to church.

 

Forbidden fruits create many jams.

 

God doesn't call the qualified,
He qualifies the called.

 

God grades on the cross,
not the curve.

 

God loves everyone, but
probably prefers "fruits of the spirit"
over "religious nuts!"

 

God promises a safe landing,
not a calm passage.

 

He who angers you, controls you!

 

If God is your Copilot - swap seats!

 

Prayer: Don't give God
instructions -- just report for duty!

 

The task ahead of us is never
as great as the Power behind us.

 

The Will of God will never
take you to where the Grace
of God will not protect you.

 

We don't change the message,
the message changes us.

 

You can tell how big a person
is by what it takes to
discourage him.

 

The best mathematical
equation I have ever seen:
1 cross + 3 nails = 4 given.

 

"Dear Father: Bless the person reading this in whatever it is that You know they need." Amen!

 

 

"The Blood of Jesus"

 

 

One night in a church service a young woman
felt the tug of God at her heart. She responded
to God's call and accepted Jesus as her Lord
and Savior.

 

The young woman had a very rough past, involving
alcohol, drugs and prostitution But, the change in
her was evident. As time went on she became a
faithful member of the church. She eventually
became involved in the ministry, teaching young
children.

 

It was not very long until this faithful young woman
had caught the eye and heart of the pastor's son.
The relationship grew and they began to make
wedding plans.

 

This is when the problems began. You see, about
one half of the church did not think that a woman
with a past such as hers was suitable for a pastor's
son. The church began to argue and fight about the
matter. So they  decided to have a meeting.

 

As the people made their arguments and tensions
increased, the meeting was getting completely out
of hand. The young woman became very upset
about all the things being brought up about her
past. As she began to cry the pastor's son stood to
speak. He could not bear the pain it was causing
his wife-to-be.

 

He began to speak and his statement was this:
"My fiancé's past is not what is on trial here.
What you are questioning is the ability of the blood 
of Jesus to wash away sin. Today you have put the
blood of Jesus on trial.

 

Does it wash away sin or not?" The whole church
began to weep as they realized that they had been
slandering the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ.

 

Too often, even as Christians, we bring up the past
and use it as a weapon against our brothers and
sisters. Forgiveness is a very foundational part
of the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. If the blood
of Jesus does not cleanse the other person
completely then it cannot cleanse us completely.

 

If that is the case, then we are all in a lot of trouble.
What can wash away my sins? Nothing but the
blood of Jesus! End of case!!!

 

Cast your burden upon the Lord, and He shall
sustain you. He shall never suffer the righteous to
be moved." Psalm 55:23  

 

 

Havwe a Blessed Day

Dave and Barbara
