Hide Me Rock of Ages Psalm 18:1-3 King James Version (KJV) 18 I will love thee, O Lord, my strength. 2  The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower. 3  I will call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies. The Rock of Ages… the cornerstone rejected that became the building block upon which the foundation of FAITH must be built… nothing less than Christ Jesus! Once again, chance conversation with two friends on separate occasions about two seemingly far different subjects prompts me to once more attempt to preach the absolute simplicity of the gospel. The first conversation was in regard to the capacity of a neophyte to comprehend complex ideas in a particular study enjoined regularly by others far more versed in the subject matter at hand and the necessity to first establish t

Written by Pricilla Owens and Wm Kirkpatrick at some previous time that copyright was given to John J. Hood, and the hymn placed within the hymnals used both th

I’m on the Battlefield 1 Thessalonians 5:3-8 King James Version (KJV) 3  For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. 4  But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. 5  Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness. 6  Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober. 7  For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night. 8  But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation. Once more peace and safety are on the lips and minds of many, as both are shattered with the reign of tumult, turmoil, and trial, of not only a nation that has slumbered too long in a drunkenness intended to deny the coming day, but
