The warning siren is heard across this world.

KMBC Family and Friends,
Let us realize that we are living in the last of the last days. It’s as plain as it can be. The warning siren is heard across this world.
Satan is the god of this world system . He is in rebellion against his Creator. Our Education system, government, media, politics, are ran by Satan. It’s all coming unglued.
This world system is in rebellion against God’s authority and it is passing away. Remember that God said it would be like this! It has to happen! The sewage of the flesh (the self-centered life) is continually spewing out of the hearts of men. God’s people are different.
We are not worried about the so-called climate change. What we are concerned about are the souls of men who have never been born of God. We are called to preach the Gospel of the Good News. We are essential to our Lord and so are others upon us.
Are you born again? Here are 9 Vital Signs from the Book of I John that give Airtight Assurance of salvation. A saved person will exhibit all of the 9 vital signs in their life, not one or two, or a few. All will be present in varying degrees if one has eternal life.

  1. Vital Sign #1 – You have communion with Christ (I John 1:1-4).
  2. Vital Sign #2 – You are dealing with sin by grieving over it and confessing it (I John 1:5-2:22).
  3. Vital Sign #3 – You are committed to obey God’s Word ( I John 2:3-6).
  4. Vital Sign # 4 – You love other believers and have compassion for them
    ( I John 2:7-11; 3:14-18; 4: 7-21).
  5. Vital Sign # 5 – You have a change of affections. You no longer love the world but love the world to
    come. You love God, others, church, the Word of God (I John 2:12-17).
  6. Vital Sign #6 – You comprehend the truth in God’s Word (I John 2:18-27; 4:1-6).
  7. Vital Sign #7 – You are conforming to the image of Christlikeness (I John 2:28-3:10).
  8. Vital Sign #8 – You are in conflict with the lifestyle of the world (I John 3:11-13).
  9. Vital Sign #9 – You pray and have confidence in prayer ( I John 3:19-24; 5:14-15).
    Tell your family that this is what a Christian is. There are many who are religious but lost. Many are deceived. Matthew 7:21: “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of God, but he who does the will of My Father in Heaven.”
    Church is more essential more than ever. As the days grow darker God’s people shine brighter. Jesus, the Bright and Morning Star, will appear at the darkest period to rapture His people out of this world. Are you ready? Are your children? Your family? Your neighbors? Your coworkers?
    If you need further instruction, please know I’m available!
    I love you with the love of the Lord,
    Pastor Don

  • Is the coming of Jesus for His church soon?

    People of God,

    If we are His friends then He desires for us to know some future events that affect us and will effectively work in us.

    We will be studying the 24th chapter of Matthew for our series of the “Hope-Filled Olivet Discourse”. We will learn the future for the nation of Israel and for the church.

    Is the coming of Jesus for His church soon? We will look and study God’s Word and prepare for Him. What about four of His disciples who asked Him for future events? Who were they? Why is it called the Olivet Discourse?

    Would you care to know that what is taking place with so many who are not studying the Word of God nor desire to do so? What does the Word of God say about those who are not Christian at all?

    Who are the Nationals taken away at the catching away of the church? Can we know when He is coming? Can we know when the second coming of Christ will take place? We have abundant truths in God’s Word. Are there signs of His coming?

    What does the rebirth of Israel say to us? All of what we will be looking at will be eye-opening.

    Join us and sober up! He is coming soon!

  • Prepare Us for Spiritual Rain – December Blog Post

    Dear Kinnett,

    When I left the church’s building after our service this past morning several matters gripped my soul.  

    1. I thought of those traveling home in the heavy rain and I asked the Lord for their safety.
    2. I thought of those who were at home who truly are not well, and I prayed for them.
    3. I thought of an illustrative point made at the beginning of my message yesterday too.  “A pastor met up with a delinquent church member and said to him that he had missed him for several weeks at the church meeting.  The man replied back to the pastor, ‘Well, you know, the children have been sick, we’ve been out-of-town, and besides that, it’s been raining.”  And the pastor said, “Well, it’s dry over at the church.”  And the delinquent church member said, “Yea, that’s another reason.”

    While I traveled home my heart was lifted up to the Lord in prayer that He would send a deluge of rain to take the dryness away from our homes, communities, and churches.  We need more than “Mercy Drops Round Us Are Falling” for we are in great need of a flood sent from God upon the dry and parched ground.

    Only the reading of the Word of God and the praying of the Word back to God will move the heart and hand of God.  The church is too busy today.  We hustle and bustle around while accomplishing nothing but clouds without water.

    Please take time to pray.  Take time to be holy.  Take time to behold Him!

    God, burden us of the aridness that surrounds us and is in us.  Prepare us for Spiritual Rain.

  • The Right to Lead

    “O Lord, I beseech thee, let now thine ear be attentive to the prayer of thy
    servant, and to the prayer of thy servants, who delight to fear thy name;
    and prosper, I pray thee, thy servant this day, and grant him mercy in the
    sight of this man. For I was the king’s cupbearer” (Nehemiah 1:11).

    The basis of courage is individual initiative. If we cannot act alone, we
    cannot act together.

    God has given us the power to lead. Our knowledge and skill developed by God
    in us has given his people the ability to lead.

    But it is only under the most difficult of circumstances that character and
    courage earns us the right to lead.

    Nehemiah led, even under great adverse situations to rebuild the walls of
    Jerusalem.

  • Eastern Shore and Ocean City, MD. Mission Trip

    Maryland Mission Pic of Group
    Last year we began to pray and to seek God’s face. We sensed God’s good hand in leading us to the Eastern Shore of Virginia. With much prayer and waiting in faith, our God supplied us with eighteen team members, three Spanish translators, the funds, and the love to head north.

    The teams divided to accomplish more. The two teams were involved in VBS at Red Bank Baptist Church in Marionsville, Va., and the VBS Migrant ministry in Cheriton, Va. Five days of sharing the love of Christ through song, teaching, giving, and testifying were very rewarding to all.

    Two mornings we headed up to Ocean City to work with a ministry called Son`Spot and with Randy Hoffman, a Sand Artist. The team spoke with many European Students who would drop in for breakfast supplied by Gary and Cathy of the Sonspot Ministries. We spoke with them and learned of their cultures and also shared the Lord Jesus with them. Many were receptive. We also distributed several hundred gospel tracts up and down the boardwalk.

    On Thursday the team shoveled and displaced sand and built a foundation for Randy Hoffman to form his new sand art. The other team prepared food for an evangelistic dinner that afternoon.

    Check out the Sand Art on RandyHoffman.com. While you are looking that up, view the ministry of Sonspot.org/. It was a lot of work but each night we laid our heads down in quiet assurance that God was meeting needs in us and through us.

     

  • What Shall I Give to A King?

    Many are setting up their Christmas trees and decorations a tad bit earlier this year. The Christmas music is already in the homes and cars of America and around Alamance County. The prospect of a happier time is trying to make its place in our bewildering times in this year of the Pandemic.

    Jesus came during days of great distress. The Lord Jesus, Son of God, was birthed into this world of woe. God was contracted to the womb of a mother. He left the world of glory for a world of gore. How it must have broken His heart as He saw this world from His vantage point with the Father. Yet He chose to redeem us from the works of Satan and the power of death which legally Satan held sway over us. Adam surrendered his rule and authority under God and caused great harm!

    Remember that our Lord had no real joyful Christmas experience. Everything for Him was deep sorrow as He saw mankind without a Shepherd. The only tree He had to look forward to was the impending tree of death. There were no ornaments, no lights, or presents under that cross of blood. It seemed as if Heaven nor earth wanted Him as He hung on the shameful cross suspended in air.

    This world still hates Him, despises Him, ignores Him, and rebukes Him. If it had its choice the world at large would physically have Him murdered again! The infection of sin is incurable in the heart of man. The ego is set so far away from God and can’t cross the chasm it has made for itself. Only God can surgically remove the stain, shame, and guilt and the power of this most disastrous virus of sin. Only He can come to us. Only He is the Great Physician!

    Jesus lived in the midst of the wilderness and loneliness of a world living in sin. Nothing around Him satisfied Him or slaked His thirst. What the world gave Him was a Gethsemane and Golgotha and a Judas. What the world presented to Him was a scourging, a crown of thorns, and nails that were pounded into His hands and feet. What kind of presents from our hands for the King of glory! What love that He would give and not to revile or seek vengeance against us but for our healing!

    Our Christmas season ought to center in the heart of God. Our total lives daily ought to be of Christ’s heart for His Father, His total obedience to the second person of the Godhead, and for the sons of men from Adam’s fallen human race.

    May it be said of us that what we are wishing for this Christmas season is none other but the total glory of Christ! What do you give to a King who has it all? The only thing I know is our total submission to God’s anointed! And the only way to do this is submit ourselves to the Holy Spirit of Christ.

    A Merry Christmas is found only in Him! A New Year is only found in Him! Eternal life begins when you bow before Him and repent and believe upon God’s only Name that will save you and me from the ravages of a lost life.

    You are loved,
    Pastor Don

  • Knowing Our Mission Field

    Our church’s address is no mistake.  God has placed us here to reach out to those who surround us in our neighborhood.  We have this great privilege and responsibility before God.

    The Lord has also given us the privilege to live where we do.  It is here on our streets that we become mission minded to those who are our neighbors.  We have the great joy of mastering the art of neighboring.  Our neighbors need Christ, and we have the tool to do just this.

    What do we do as we gather in our church buildings?  We learn who we are, and that God has given us a special commission to reach others through prayer and discipleship.  It is our responsibility to share and God’s responsibility to save.

    Let’s refocus our prayer ministry toward our neighbors.

    Love in Christ,

    Pastor Don
