Birthday Countdown!!

Lord willing, I'll be 20 in seven days..He’s been patient with this rebellious, stumbling, and helpless woman for almost twenty whole years! That’s incredible. I get impatient with people after a few minutes and yet He is patient- not desiring me to perish (2 Pet. 3:9). What have I to give in return? Nothing… What exactly do you give back to the God who gives us all things? What do you present to Him who has presented us with all blessings, whether temporal or spiritual and eternal? All we have to give is what He commands. And that's simply what He's due, not what He needs.

Sheep and Goats


As the Church begins to rise up in apostolic authority, a revelation of grace, and the power of the Holy Spirit, the separation of the sheep and the goats becomes clearer and clearer.
Churches are becoming more worldly than before. For some, worship is a mere performance and sermons are "watered down milk". There are numerous pastors that compromise it all and know nothing about holiness. But because they inspire and deliver warm messages, crowds cheer their names. Sexual immorality is becoming more and more accepted in the Church. Leaders in various ministries being upfront and unashamed of their promiscuity. And of course we all recognize the work of the enemy is vastly spreading when those who have been scholars of the faith for years now question the accuracy of Scripture.
The steady hope is the people who are rising, on fire for the Lord, and proclaiming His good Word. They are a people of prophets, apostles, evangelists, pastors, and teachers. They are desperate to see the BOC functioning the way it very well should.
The Lord is certainly coming, for the distinction between the sheep and the goats is becoming quite clear. If no other evidence convinces you, take a look around, and that fact is clear. In Christ, Allie J
