Serving On the Church Board is firstly a responsibility not an honor.
Recent earthquake, wars and rumors of more war. Increasing fires, floods, plagues? Open borders? What's our human part and God's part in lawlessness and upholding creation? God gave us creation- and He expects us to do our human part as His trustees and stewards of its bounty and beauty and promise: "But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. Matthew24,37-39 KJ

Not any mere man guides us! This is so related to our seeking and receiving the Lord's promise to all- the near and the far- the promise of Holy Ghost baptism. Acts2,39. This Holy Ghost baptism and the Lord's actual guidance as the good Shepherd unto salvation, unto the end, are vitally connected, and so much needed, unto our final justification. Oh glory, makes me want to preach baptism in the Spirit once again! (updated April 2022 from 2009)

I never thought I would go back to actually blessing the bread and wine at the table (which is what ALL the baptized do) of the Lord (1Cor.10,16), or preaching about mandatory celibacy.

In this written piece I provide an introductory rational (from the Holy Spirit and the Lord Jesus) for changing the unbiblical man-made rule of mandatory celibacy. This introductory rational introduces the whole sermon which you can access on YouTube by the link herein provided.
