Like Mildness

Like Minded

I suppose every since Adam and Eve transgressed Gods law of love in the garden of Eden there has been little or no like mindedness in their offspring. We know that shortly there afterwards Cain killed his brother because their minds were drawn apart with jealously and greed. Down through the ages, there has been a lack of thinking and working in one accord. Today there is little or no common ground among individuals or nations. History records reveals a lack of unity on thinking.

Jesus came and separation in beliefs and even families took a different flavor. Today there are more denominations than can be quickly named. There is only a trace of like mildness in our world and worship today.

Genesis 4:3“... Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the LORD. 4 And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the LORD had respect unto Abel and to his offering: 5 But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect. Genesis 4:8 And Cain talked with Abel his brother: and it came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother, and slew him.

  Isaiah 56:11 “...they all look to their own way, every one for his gain...”

Acts 14:15-16 “...God,...in times past suffered all nations to walk in their own ways.”

 Luke 12:51 “Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division:”

  Numbers 21:14 “Wherefore it is said in the book of the wars of the LORD,...”:

  Judges 3:1 “... all the wars of Canaan;”

  2 Samuel 8:10 “... Hadadezer had wars with Toi.”

  1 Kings 5:3 “Thou knowest how that David my father could not build an house unto the name of the LORD his God for the wars which were about him on every side...”

  2 Chronicles 16:9 “... from henceforth thou shalt have wars.”

  2 Chronicles 27:7 “...the acts of Jotham, and all his wars, and his ways...”

Matthew 24:6 “And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars:...”
Luke 21:9 “...when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified:...”
James 4:1 “From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members?”
Matthew 18:20 “For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.” Know God, know peace. Amen 11-14-2020 BLL

Thy will be Done...the Wayfarer 3/15/19

Thy will be Done 3/15/19 Matthew 6:9-13 King James Version (KJV) 9  After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. 10  Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. 11  Give us this day our daily bread. 12  And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. 13  And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen. The "model " prayer, given us by Jesus, repeated daily throughout the world, by many denomination and sect, though seldom examined by those parroting the words is NOT an empty example that is to be followed by congregant, memorized by children and adult alike.  It is exactly the opposite of that emptiness, holding the essence of what SHOU LD be in the heart of the one praying. It is GOD'S will that need be sought, not just daily, but continually by all wishing ...

Remember Therefore from Whence Thou art Fallen,,the Wayfarer 3//27/13

 3//27/13 “Remember from Whence Thou art Fallen” “Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.” (Revelation 2:5) Today we touch the untouchable book of Revelation, given to us by John of Patmos, through our Savior Jesus Christ himself. This particular message is one I have given before, in places where I knew none of the congregation, and had no idea why God wouldn’t let me preach from any other scripture.  It is probably one of the most important messages for the people of today’s church to hear. It is also probably the hardest for today’s “Christians” here in our country to comprehend, and even harder to accept. Take note of the use of the phrase “ the first works” used by Jesus, we will delve deeply into the meaning of this phrase as we progress through today’s message. First, however let us back...

The Life is More than Meat...the Wayfarer 11/29/15

The Life is More than Meat  11/29/15 22  And he said unto his disciples, Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat; neither for the body, what ye shall put on. 23  The life is more than meat, and the body is more than raiment. (Luke 12:22 &23) Life is indeed more than meat, food, clothing and the things that are constantly demanding the attention of the physical, carnal man, whose concern for himself and those he considers his own, all too often revolve. Life also consists of the inner being, the soul of that man, and those he considers his own, and all others as well with whom he is in contact in the process of what is called living. It is that very essence of life, that eternal soul that holds preeminence and prominence above all physical “needs”. The necessity of a warm coat to stave off the chill of the winter’s cold is undeniably important, without it the physical body, first suffers discomfort, and if ...
