The Life Of Christ On Earth.

I would like to deal with the subject of Jesus Christ while he was here on earth.


1. First I would like to deal with some prophecies in the Old Testament that were fulfilled by Jesus when he was here on earth.

A. Is. 9:7 says He will be an heir to the throne of David. We see this prophecy fulfilled in Matt. 1:1.
B. Micah 5:2 We see that he is too be born in Bethlehem, this is fulfilled in Matt. 2:1.
C. Is. 7:14 He is to be born of a virgin. The fulfillment of this prophecy is in Matt. 1:18.
D. His hands and His feet are to be pierced according to Psalms 22:16. This is fulfilled when He is put on the cross in John 20:27.
E. His side is to be pierced according to Zechariah 12:10 this is also fulfilled while he is on the cross in John 19:37.

2. His childhood life.

A. We see that mother was a virgin Matt.1:18.
B. He is born in a manger because there is no room in the inn. Luke 2:7.
C. He has both a prophet (Simeon) and a prophetess (Anna) say that He is the Christ.
In Luke 2:25-38

3. His ministry as a child.

A. We see that He started His ministry at the early age of 12. Luke 2:42-49.

That is all for now thanks for looking.

Where We Have Been Lately

Since my last post we have been very busy and I will just update on where we have been and what we have been doing.
We were at our home church the end of September. It was great to be back and see the church. We went out Street Preaching nothing confrontational really happened but we still got to witness to a couple hundred people.
In October we went to Atlanta for a preachers meeting, where we preached at Georgia State for three afternoons. It got rough a little but nothing much and we had some pretty good conversations. During the whole time the students were out there almost all were against us yet there were still some who agreed with us. The students were holding signs and singing "No hate at Georgia State," and had signs stating the same along with some other things. Overall it was really good.
We are presently in IL. Where we are going to be doing some street preaching and door knocking a lot because it is the second most important place for the Mormons as Joseph Smith died around here and such, it is a lot of fun to go and preach in front of the temple, where dad stirred up the gardener last time we were here. We just took a little side trip down to Pittsburg Kansas to meet with a pastor we know in the area.

Who We As Christians Should Obey.

I would just like to take a little time and deal with the subject of obedience and who, or what we should obey as Christians.
Definitions-Submit-To be submissive, to yield to one's opinion, to the opinion of authority of another. To surrender, to yield without murmuring.

Obey-To submit to the government, to comply commands, orders or instructions of a superior, to yield.

1. We should obey the Lord Jesus Christ according to James 4:7.
We should obey him by.
A. Reading His Word (The Bible). Isaiah 34:16.
B. Keeping His commandments. John 8:31.
C.Witnessing. (Door to door, in the parking lot, where ever you are at). Mark 16:15.
D. Street Preaching. Acts 20:20.
E. Abstaining from alcohol, or any alcoholic beverages. Proverbs 20:1.
2. We are to obey the Bible. John 8:31.

What We Have Been Doing.

We were in Nauvoo IL. last month after my last post street p;reaching and visiting some friends, we had a very good time irritating the Mormons as it is the second most important place for them. It is near where Joseph Smith was killed, they moved to after they were kicked out of Missouri etc. We went up to the Temple a couple times a week and would preach and witness out front. While preaching one time my dad got a Mormon mad who's wife was trying to take a picture, but he was in the way, so the man rudely demanded that he move. Dad said if he had asked politely he would have but since he was rude he could forget about it. Needless to say the man continued to get mad and eventually cursed and threatened my dad. After that we went to a friends house in Ohio and did some street preaching around there. We then headed to New York for our usual meetings. Our first few were all good meetings. While at one of them we preached at the World's Largest Spiritualist community called Lily Dale. They have their own Fire Dept. Post Office etc. We got interviewed and put in the Sunday newspaper nothing big but it still had what we had been preaching. The following Sunday the local churches wrote the editor and apologized for our preaching, they said God damns no one to hell, and then quoted John 3:18 later on. The pastor we had been working with has a radio station at the church and the next day preached on the pastors repenting for us, and how God does and will damn someone to hell that is not saved. After that we moved up towards Buffalo area and went to several of the rock concerts on Thursday night. We started an old fashioned camp-meeting with a pastor near there where Ron Williams (head-director of Hephzibah House a girls house) and my dad were preaching. That Thursday we went out to Buffalo and found the streets crowded, we found out that the band that was playing that night had not done a concert since 1973. My dad went out with one white glove and a sign that read Ask Me Why Micheal Jackson Went To Hell. Within minutes we had about forty people around us. We had at various times anywhere from fifty to three hundred people, the police arrested one man and broke up several near riots.
That Friday we also went witnessing in Niagara Falls and got rained on the whole time, but we still got tracts out.
Till next time.

Street Preaching at the Indy 500

This past weekend we went out Street Preaching at the Indy 500 parade on Saturday and the race on Sunday, with the men going out Saturday night to Georgetown. We had groups from Chicago, Ohio, Michigan, New York and a few other places. Saturday went well we had plenty of Street Preaching and witnessing. We got out more tracts this year than we have in the past few years. We were in our normal spot, and where normally by 10:00 is packed this year was still not packed by the time the parade started at 1:00. On Sunday we went out to the race track and preached. We got into quite a few good conversations including with a smoking minister, who thought there was only 4 books in the entire Bible, couldn't tell you where the 10 commandments were, but we were wrong for being out there. We had one point where it got a little rough with a man throwing his beer all over us. We got out a lot more tracts than usual here also. All in all it was a good time.

Chicago

The past week we have been up in Chicago IL. Doing a revival meeting and street preaching on the weekends. On this past Saturday Pastor Teesdale from the church here started dealing with a young man about the Lord, after about forty-five minutes the young man knelt on the sidewalk and accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as his Saviour. Pastor Teesdale then spent thirty minutes more talking to the young man about what he should do once he had been saved.
A lot of decisions have been made this past week as my dad preached a revival meeting for the church up here.
Please pray for us as we will be street preaching again Saturday, and then we have the Indy 500 coming up next week where we will also be street preaching.

Why We As Christians Should Street Preach.

Here are some reasons why we as Christians should be willing to go out and Street Preach.
#1. Because Jesus Christ said to. Mark 16:15 Go ye into all the world and PREACH the gospel.

#2. Jesus Christ Street Preached Publickly. Matthew 4:23, 9:35, Luke 3:3, 9:6, And many other places.

#3. Paul inspired by the Holy Spirit said to. In Acts 20:20, 1 Corinthians 15:58, 2 Timothy 4:2.


#4. Paul Preached Publickly. Acts 9:29, 13:35, 16:13-15, 18:4, 22:1-16 along with many other
places.

#5. Many of the disciples and Christians in the Bible Preached Publickly.
Silas preached Acts 16:13-15.
Peter Acts 2:14-36, 4:8-12, 15:7.
Apollos Acts 18;26-28.
Timothy Acts 16:4-5.
John the Baptist Matthew 3:1.
Philip Acts 8:12.
Barnabas Acts 13:35.

We should be willing to Street Preach if our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ did.
So many people say I want to be like Jesus but are to concerned about their image to get up and go out and Street Preach.

Paul said in 2 Timothy 4:2 to reprove and rebuke, that is the reason many people pastors included will not go out and preach the gospel to a world that is on it's way to hell.

A Letter To Young Men.

1 Timothy 3:1-7.
This passage may be directed at Bishops but it would be a good set of guidelines for a young man to live by.

1. v. 2. Says to be sober. We as young men should be sober. Sober means to be serious, solemn etc. We should not be foolish or loud, always goofing off, flippant, etc. Some other verses dealing with this subject. 1 Thess. 5:6,8. 1 Peter 1:13, 4:7, 5:8.

2. v.2. Says to be of good behavior. Behavior means Manner of behaving whether good or bad, in conduct, and manners. It is time that we learned to have manners around the table, at the church, in front of ladies and everywhere else. You say manners don't matter much, but they do when you have bad manners it shows almost a disrespect for those around us.

3. v.3. Says not greedy of filthy lucre. This says filthy lucre but it can apply to everything.
The Bible also says to not be greedy in Prov 15:27.

4. v.3. The Bible says to be patient here. We need to learn patience as a young man so we don't need to when we are older. It is a good virtue to learn. It also says it in Eccl. 7:8, Rom. 12:12, 1 Thess. 5:14, James 5:7-8.

5. v .3. The Bible says no not be covetous. You say coveting is a small thing it really doesn't matter to God. It's enough to send someone to hell as we see in 1 Corinthians 6:10. It is also important enough for God to mention it in the Law Exodus 20:17. Some more references Romans 7:7, Ephesians 5:5, 2 Timothy 3:2.

6. v. 7. It says to have a good report of them which are without. Do you have a good good report among your friends, the church people, the lost. Do they know that you are a Christian, and that you are a honest person who can be trusted. Prov. 15:30, Acts 6:3, 10:22, and 22:12. These 2 last places are where people had a good report among others. In Acts 6:3 it was important enough to have men of good report to take care of the widows.

Thanks for taking your time to read this. I should have another one up soon.

Street Preaching in Panama City.

We went out Street Preaching today in Panama City Florida. While we were out there we had a Lutheran Pastor come out who thought it was okay to drink alcohol, watch Lord of the Rings, be a Catholic, and still be saved what a laugh. This is so typical of a unsaved man trying to tell us were doing it wrong.
