God established the very first marriage in the Bible in Genesis 2:21-24, “And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof; 22. And the rib, which the Lord God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.

Each of us, must remember that God has given His Children the gift of the Holy Ghost.  Paul told Timothy in, II Timothy 1:6, “Stir up the gift of God which is in thee.”  Paul knew that we, “Christians”, would have many battles to fight and he gave us this scripture to remind us that we must use the gift given to us, which has the power to win every battle.

We happen to believe that many of us take way too much for granted in this life.  We never stop in the mornings to thank God for waking us up and allowing us to see another day. 

Where can you go to hide from God?  We’ve heard many say, “Yes, I’m saved, but I’ve walked away from God.”  Where did you go?  God is everywhere. 

Please continue to pray for the leaders of this nation and for all church leaders in our local communities.  As I sit here writing this news letter, I am reminded of an incident that happen with Evangelist David Bibey (Dad) some years back, at a National Day of Prayer that was being held at the courthouse square in Carthage, NC, by a group of pastors in the surrounding area.

Many people, either don’t know or don’t understand about Paradise.  Under the Old Testament Law, a person had to die in total righteousness.  A person could live a perfect life for years, every sin forgiven.  If that person died with all sins forgiven, his soul would go to a department in Hell called Abraham’s Bosom.
