“Walk the Old Paths"
by Pastor Silas Doctor
“14 They have healed also the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace; when there isno peace.
15 Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? nay, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush: therefore they shall fall among them that fall: at the time that I visit them they shall be cast down, saith the LORD.
16 Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein.
17 Also I set watchmen over you, saying, Hearken to the sound of the trumpet. But they said, We will not hearken.
18 Therefore hear, ye nations, and know, O congregation, what isamong them.
19 Hear, O earth: behold, I will bring evil upon this people, even the fruit of their thoughts, because they have not hearkened unto my words, nor to my law, but rejected it.”
There are clear differences between God’s ways and the world’s ways. God knew the things we would be tempted with; the things that would confuse us; the ways we would sin. He gave us His Holy Word to give us guidance on how to live.

Time is always running and in these days it surely feels that time is running out. Choose God’s ways today. Don’t wait. Jesus says in Matthew Chapter 7, verses 13 and 14, "13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: 14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it."
Pastor Doctor explores this in today’s message.
Notes & Quotes:
“We need to make today count; one way or another. Never take a single moment for granted because tomorrow is not guaranteed.”
“When you walk in the light, you don’t experience the fear that others do - because you see the path.”
“We need to crucify the flesh. The flesh always wants to be satisfied.”
“Even when I can’t feel Him, God is still God.”
Bible Verses:
by Pastor Silas Doctor
Folks, I am sharing some thoughts on what the Bible has been warning us about for many years that would happen some day! I believe that time is VERY near!
The next Scriptural event that will soon happen is the Rapture of the Church, which means those that are truly born-again, saved believers will be caught up and meet Jesus!
... The inspiration of the Bible
... The Trinity of God
... The virgin birth of Jesus Christ
... The blood atonement by Christ
... The bodily resurrection of Christ from the dead
... The justification of unsaved by faith
... The person and work of the Holy Spirit
... The call of each believer to spiritual maturity of holiness of life
... The Biblical command to separate unto God from apostasy
... The security of the believer by the power of God
... The personal and imminent return of Christ
... The evangelizing of the unsaved in all the world
