The Blood Of The Lost......

EZE 3:17-19......The word WATCHMEN came to me during prayer on Friday night and it was confirmed. I do not beleive in coinincidences when it comes to the word of GOD. During my time of prayer the same word came to another person who I had not talked to or shared this with....So here it goes.

I am not sure how to put it without posting the whole scripture so here it goes...If we as Christians know someone is walking in sin and we fail to minister to them and share the Gospel with them , and they die there sin is on our heads....we are responsible....If we do what God commands and they still choose to turn from there sin and die....there sin and death is not on our heads.

I beleive that GOD is calling people up to be WATCHMEN.....This really puts everyone of us who calls ourselves Christians with a sense of responsibility.

The Call

I just found out that Jeff from DBC is going to be at The Call in San Diego. Jeff and his wife are getting ready for a church plant in Seattle this year. They are hoping to get settle between thanksgiving and Christmas. I think Seattle is a good city to see a DBC plant....it is a city that needs GOD!!!

There has never been something I want to be a part of as much as I do The Call in SD.....I mean I am willing to sleep on the street if I have to. SOmething is there and I want to be a part of it

this was kind of cool to learn!

So many years ago I worked in the church...I worked under Tim Riche' (jr high pastor) and lance leach (youth pastor). Well Tim has been gone for some time now and rumor has it Pastor Roger is getting ready to retire and lance is stepping up to the plate and so I have been curious who the youth pastor at VWCC was these days....did they step out and bring in an outsider.

I spent some time online last night trying to find out who the YP was and I was pleasently supprised and well quite prout to know the YP is one of my kids from when I was working with jr high kids his name is charles rigby. Finding this out actually brought a tear to my eye....

What is the American Dream?

You remember...2.5 kids, dog, wife / husband, nice house and good job. Today I was talking to my friend Al Serna and he asked me the question "What is the American Dream?" and I gave him my answer. Then he said this that kind of left me thinking....."GOD IS CHANGING THE AMERICAN DREAM!"

I mean seriously.....the housing market crash, banks are failing, the govt. has decided to define marriage (vote yes on prop. 8). I honestly think that Al is right. I beleive GOD's desire right now is to not only shake up the country but to wake up the church. Please understand something I am not one of those who beleive the the United States is God's Sovereign land (thanks Isreal!!) but I do beleive that as a country we were founded on "biblical principles and morals" and that our nation and culture has changed so drastically over the 45 years that the country has decided there is no room for GOD.

At what point is the church going to wake up, going to not pray but intercede, when are pastors going to see sin for what it is....SIN and not pussyfoot around it becuase "It may make someone uncomfortable". These are just a few small things.

For this reason it says, "Awake, sleeper, And arise from the dead...." Ephesians 5:14
