“Empowering Insight”
Sunday's Bulletin Message 10/18/2026
We started our Sunday Services with our Sunday School Classes for all our age groups. In the Worship Service we sang some congregational hymns & Adult Choirs sang followed by some special singers who sang praises to the Lord. Afterwards, PEvangelist John Hamblin preached a message from Matthew 7:13-14 to start MBC's 2026 Fall Revival #1. Click on this link: AV/Media link (or below) to watch anytime at your convenience.
A SERIOUS QUESTION:
Is the Willing Driver of a Getaway Vehicle as guilty as those actually robbing the bank, using a deadly firearm, murdering innocent people, and leaving with stolen money?
Please understand, When you choose to vote for Political candidates whose policies are everything God hates and condemns, or if you choose not to vote in linewith biblical principles you are in effect driving the getaway vehicle and enabling them to impose anit-God, anti-Bible, and anti-American policies upon our society. PLEASE VOTE and VOTE AGAINST the policies of the Democrat leadership. (If you can but do not vote you are in effect letting ungodly policies prevail). Please help me get this illustrative message to everyone possible in every way possible. Perchance God will touch their hearts and they will desire to vote biblically. I love you and my life and service to you proves it, but "Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?" (Galatians 4:16). We must stop letting evil triumph by saying nothing and doing nothing about it. Both the least and most we can do is simply follow biblical instructions, (Matthew 5:13-16).
I WAS JUST THINKING-
about how much I love my sons and their kids and how I always enjoy being with them each time I can. I'd be so sad if I never or rarely saw them. I'm certain that God feels the same way when his children don't care enough about him to regularly worship him in his house!
WHAT ARE WE TALKING ABOUT TO PEOPLE, either privately or publicly? Here's the biblical admonition:-
Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.(I Thessalonians 5:11) To comfort and edify means to build one another up in the faith. We must understand and life up in attitudes and actions that show everyone that the Church is not about us, not about talking to others about out likes, dislikes, our views, our opinions, feelings, goals, people's failures or even sins. It's about glorifying God, (Ephesians 3:21), living for Christ and serving in unity, (John 17:21-23), and bringing souls to salvation, (Proverbs 11:30), (Daniel 12:3). Our CONVERSATION (as the real bible, the KJV clearly says, not citzenship, is in heaven not on carnal things, (Philippians 3:20, Colossians 3:2). Death and life are in the power of the tongue: (Proverbs 18:21) How are we swinging the sword of our tongue?
LIVING OUT AND PROPERLY ANNOUNCING WHAT I AM FOR AND WHY will have much greater consequences in people's lives
than always proclaiming what
I'm against-
...will have much greater consequences in people's lives than always proclaiming what I'm against.
WHY AS GOD'S SERVANTS MUST ANNOUNCE GOD'S WORD CONCERNING ANY MATTER IN SOCIETY, Matthew (5:13-16)
SOCIALIST/DEMOCRATIC LEADERSHIP-
is so dangerous because, while they want socialistic policies to govern everyone else, they secretly live by captialism for themselves! (in other words they enrich themselves while driving the populace into poverty).
YOUR ATTITUDE AND THINGS YOU TALK ABOUT WITH PEOPLE-
can edify (build another up in the faith) or uproot them from Christianity so badly that they'll quit church altogether. Some people get more people out of church than they ever get in. All the while act like they're the "goody two shoes".
IT'S BEEN SAID-
"Our Churches must change or they're gonna die!" I whole heartily agree with that. Here are some changes I propose:
1. Let's change in the sense of becoming more biblical than we've been.
2. Let's change in the sense of getting rid of every version of the Bible but that KJV.
3. Let's change in our prayer life. Let's pray daily for souls to be saved, for people to love Jesus and want to live for him, for God's will to be done in our lives, not our own.
4. Let's change in our lives from wasting time to "redeeming the time for the days are evil".
5. Let's stop being rude and unkind to people and start being Christ-Like in how we communicate and treat people.
6. Let's start going to church more often instead of less.
7. Let's stop disrespecting God's house with "any old thing will do in dress and service" and start being our best for the Lord Jesus Christ.
8. Let's change from being cold and indifferent to evangelistic and full of scripture.
9. Let's do more hymns instead of hem hawing and more specials that are special to Jesus.
