Coronavirus is no reason to cancel Sunday services
Are you trying to Jew Jesus, people?! :angry:
There have been false rumors spreading about some people contracting the virus from me and Donnie, and that we should get self-isolated and tested for the disease. Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? (Matthew 8:26). Jesus would never allow some sort of disease enter me or Donnie! We are both in perfect health. I have also heared some rumors that some members of our church have been thinking about not coming to the church this Sunday out of fear of contracting the virus. Seriously, people? You say you believe in Jesus but you don't believe He will protect you? Quote:
Anyone who does not show up to church this Sunday can say goodbye to Landover Baptist forever! :rebuke: And when you are there, don't you even THINK about weaseling out of shaking hands and embracing your Pastors and other members of the congregation. :angry: And DO NOT use hand sanitizer, it makes your hands all yucky and sticky. :bad: And remember this: if anyone shows signs of the sickness afterwards, it is ALL YOUR FAULT, SINNER! :nono: Disease is a sign of God, sent by Him to those who displease Him. God sees you and judges you! Quote:

Re: Coronavirus is no reason to cancel Sunday services
Our God has builded us a mighty fortress of faith and it is good to have a solid rock upon which to rest in these perilous times. As Christians, we are commanded to come together for praise and worship (Hebrews 10:25). God will not send His plague among the righteous. Anyway, if God wants your scalp, there is no use in hiding.

We have one of a very few brave pastors in Pastor Zeke. You can find a few others here and there.
For example, in Kentucky the Governor ordered churches closed. A few Baptists in that state gave the Governor the "bird". They are holding church services in spite of the atheist Governor. https://www.christianpost.com/news/s...-governor.html |

God is always consistent. From the earliest days of His undertaking to care for those who acknowledge Him there have been difficulties, as it would seem to a non-believer requiring action by one's own efforts to meet the challenge. The Bible does not teach that. Of course there are people who don't believe The Bible or who lie about what's recorded there but that doesn't change what God has promised or whether those promises are real. EXODUS 15 Those are very strong words. Healing is not something God just does. Healing is a part of God's nature. The Bible is very straightforward here; through obedience a twofold promise is activated. On the one hand a very specific suite of diseases is promised to be withheld.—.those afflicting the Egyptians.—.and on the other hand a promise still current that ALL sickness will be taken away. Not only sicknesses having known remedies but all the incurable ones too. It's a part of His nature. DEUTERONOMY 7 Matthew explains that there were forty-two generations from Abraham to Jesus, a period of twenty-one hundred years. The link goes to a timeline for reference. That allows 50 years per generation. Clearly the promise concerning health remains current, differing starkly from secular ideals which offer no such guarantees. Paul knew what God's promise was and what happens when people start making up stuff for themselves. Relaxed secular standards do not agree with anything originating in The Bible and can deliver neither health nor Salvation. No-one likes being reprimanded (as Paul well knew) but regardless of personal feelings, there is an alternative to death. II Corinthians 7 So many people think they have a better assurance of improving conditions by relying on false teachings instead of following the only path throughout history to help understand the world we live in and how to apply ourselves so that others may also learn about answers to pain and suffering. It's not compulsory to read and understand The Bible but without that knowledge our attempts to address the sorrow of the world are made so much harder in places where it's most needed, where false promises have failed so often. |
Re: Coronavirus is no reason to cancel Sunday services
Iowa's Governor, Republican Kim Reynolds, just had a news conference up the street from Freehold. She said there are now 17 people in Iowa sick with the coronavirus.
I wish she would have told the truth about them. All the cases came from traveling outside the Godly U.S.A. And, 13 were on a "cruise ship." I've never been on a cruise ship but I'm suspicious of them. I think they are floating sexual orgies. I've asked people who have taken cruises who supervises what goes on in the staterooms? They look at me funny but don't answer. That tells me there is sin on board. So, are we to be surprised disease is spreading on cruise ships? I think not. Maybe these ships are out of sight from land but God can see what goes on, staterooms and on deck. If people from Iowa go on cruises they best never come home. https://outlook.office.com/mail/inbo...j4OvsKWlGKQ%3D |
Re: Coronavirus is no reason to cancel Sunday services
I believe that the Finance Ministry should be especially vigilant for the foreseeable future, due to the large number of estates which will be disbursed among the grieving relatives of those in their late 70's and 80's who will shortly be called to account for their sins.
God is making a rich harvest of sinners of all types, but the majority are over 70. Many of their heirs are members of Landover Baptist Church and a goodly portion of those securities, monies and valuables that they receive from the estate should be gifted for God's work. At least thirty percent should be the standard. Those who are particularly well heeled could give more. These love offerings should be voluntary and the new rule should be rigidly enforced to insure collection. I feel badly for certain saved Christians who's parents or other loved ones are about to start the reward for their sinful lives (which is the fires of Hell), but that is no reason to overlook a windfall of this magnitude. |

Of course, we already knew that the POTUS was disease free. Though to dissuade the doubters, he got tested anyway. As expected, tests confirm President Donald Trump is completely free from Corona virus. Other world leaders are not so fortunate. https://www.cnn.com/2020/03/12/ameri...rus/index.html The Prime Minister of Canada's wife got hit with the virus. I think this is a warning that Jesus is getting fed-up with how Justin Trudeau is handling Canada and his liberalism. |
Re: Coronavirus is no reason to cancel Sunday services
Pastor Zeke, as you have no doubt heard, I will be unable to attend this Sunday, as I have been hospitalized.
I'm sure you can imagine how excited I was when sister Mary told me you would come visit me and pray over my sick bed. You are still coming, right? |

Preach it, Pastor Zeke! We should double the Sunday services in the next period so we can fit in many extra prayers.

How is it Unsaved Trash like me would be permitted into Landover's Sunday services? :huh: |
Re: Coronavirus is no reason to cancel Sunday services
The real problem here is when people start believing more in a "Pasteur" than a Pastor. This the modern tragedy.

Re: Coronavirus is no reason to cancel Sunday services
Any person with half a brain knows God protects the righteous. God is the one that provides conception to a female, permits the birth and then takes the life back when He feels the person is ready for Heaven or as is the case with most people, Hell.
This current fad of Corona is just a message from Him to watch our P's and Q's. Those that are pure and True in faith have nothing to worry about. I'll take a moment and put in a reminder of the Saturday get together at the LBC Club for the Older Church members to give 'spring advice' to our younger members. A day of sharing and giving back. Come one, come all. Take a sip from the giant 'Fellowship Cup'. Savor the warm embrace of your fellow parishioner. Corona virus, give me a break. It is just allergies, Gods way of telling us 'the plants are doing it'. |

Re: Coronavirus is no reason to cancel Sunday services
Please don't dismiss me just yet! I have a whole series in mind that will surely make up for my trespasses. I will be picking where I last left off at Genesis. I hope I have no more bowel trouble. I don't want it to turn off Jesus so early in our rekindling relationship.

Re: Coronavirus is no reason to cancel Sunday services
Please come see me, Pastor Zeke. I might not have much longer.
I wrote everything down in a letter. A deathbed confession. Everything. For your own sake, you might want to come. Be a shame if this letter got into the wrong hands. |
