Praise God for another wonderful Sunday at Lincoln Baptist Church. We live from Sunday to Sunday around here. Enjoying each and everyone of them to the fullest. However, it is what we do in between them that helps make them so enjoyable. We had fourteen in our Home and Family class this past Sunday. We had just recently started it back up after having to stop it for awhile. It was running around 20 to 22 when we had to stop it, so we are working at building it back up to that and of course even higher.
I am very excited about this class because there is such an attack on the home and the family these days that we must have churches with classes like this to help counter attack the enemy. I am also excited about the wonderful job that Brother Jager is doing with my old Sunday school class. He is helping me reach more adults and that is a tremendous blessing. We must reach adults as well as the youth.
This past Sunday we saw four public professions of faith made. I praise God for this. Even though none of them followed the Lord in baptism, we can never underestimate the importance of a soul coming to Christ. I truly believe several of them will get baptized in the next week or two. Praise God for them.
One last thing that excites me is the theme for this next month. "If the Foundations Be Destroyed ..." This is the day and age that we must emphasize doctrine, because it also is under attack. I look forward to teaching on Wednesday nights about the simple doctrines that are being trampled by the Devil. Praise God for the King James Bible and the victory we will have with it by learning true doctrine!
