Monday's Musings

Last week was pretty busy, although I can't remember what all we did.

Yesterday, Todd and I went with THE BIBLE BAPTIST CHURCH of DeLand, to pass out tracts to the many race fans going to the Daytona 500. There were people with AMAZING GRACE MISSIONS there passing out their SMILIE FACE TRACTS. We had a good day!

Here are a few pictures I took while we were there.
















Todd and I had a really good time! It is sad to see so many people that are uninterested in what JESUS did for them at Calvary.
The Bible says in
2 Peter3:9,
"The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness;
but is longsuffering to usward, not willing that any should perish,
but that all should come to repentance."

Monday Hymns

We attend Church on Sunday evenings where we go to school, because that is part of a class. This week we sang a song normally thought of as a Christmas song. At this church, they sing Christmas songs all year long. I think that is neat.

WHAT CHILD IS THIS
What Child is this who, laid to rest
On Mary’s lap is sleeping?
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet,
While shepherds watch are keeping?
This, this is Christ the King,
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing;
Haste, haste, to bring Him laud,
The Babe, the Son of Mary.
Why lies He in such mean estate,
Where ok and ass are feeding?
Good Christians, fear, for sinners here
The silent Word is pleading.
Nails, spear shall pierce Him through,
The cross be borne for me, for you.
Hail, hail the Word made fles,
The Babe, the Son of Mary.
So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh,
Come peasant, king to own Him;
The King of kings salvation brings,
Let loving hearts enthrone Him.
Raise, raise a song on high,
The virgin sings her lullaby.
Joy, joy for Christ is born,
The Babe, the Son of Mary.
William C. Dix (1837-1898)
This song contains most of the elements of what we think of as the Christmas story. It has the birth of Christ, the angels, the wisemen...and most importantly it has the reason Christ came.. SALVATION for man.
We were in the book of Matthew last night, and Bro. Knox brought out how the book of Matthew is the only place where the wise men are mentioned. The book of Matthew is about CHRIST as the KING OF KINGS...and is written to the Jews.

Tuesday's Thoughts

This week's thought is from my class on Isaiah 3.

Isaiah 3:16-23
16 Moreover the LORD saith, Because the daughters of Zion are haughty, and walk with stretched forth necks and wanton eyes, walking and mincing as they go, and making a tinkling with their feet:
17Therefore the LORD will smite with a scab the crown of the head of the daughters of Zion, and the LORD will discover their secret parts.
18In that day the Lord will take away the bravery of their tinkling ornaments about their feet, and their cauls, and their round tires like the moon,
19The chains, and the bracelets, and the mufflers,
20The bonnets, and the ornaments of the legs, and the headbands, and the tablets, and the earrings,
21The rings, and nose jewels,
22The changeable suits of apparel, and the mantles, and the wimples, and the crisping pins,
23The glasses, and the fine linen, and the hoods, and the vails.


Here are a few interesting things I learned.

(v16) It talks about "walking and mincing as they go". I have seen many that walk this way, and I pray that my walk would never be considered by others to be this way. It is the short choppy way that some women walk to attract attention. This can often be the start of leading a man into sin. Christian women should desire that their walk never lead to that.

The main thought Pastor Knox gave was that because women were haughty and obsessed with what they had, God would take it away. The reason for this is that God wants us to worship Him not the ornaments and clothes we have. We can easily make these things idols in our lives. We spend time organizing them, admiring them, and shopping for them.

Pastor Knox gave 4 reasons for clothes:

#1 Ornaments of Guilt.... to Remember the fall of man in the Garden.

#2 Coverings against the weather....we don't have fur ;)

#3 Ornaments for the Body...Proverbs 31:21-22

#4 Mark of Rank.....To tell the type of man one is. 2 Samuel 13:18

Now, shoes, jewelry, clothing, and such are not wrong, unless we make more importance of them than the LORD.
