smart cop

A police recruit was asked during the exam, "What would you do if you had to arrest your own mother?" He answered, "Call for backup."

It was another good day in the house of the Lord today. I had much liberty in preaching the final message in a series of sermons on Christ and the LAW. Todays sermon was "Christ and the 10th Commandment" and you can see the outline HERE.

April May June 2010

This is our Quarterly Report for the 2nd quarter of 2010. For outlines of Lord’s Day morning sermons see our church website. We finished a series on The Resurrection of Christ and started one on Christ and the Ten Commandments. In our afternoon services we are studying the Articles of Faith. Brother Russell turned his Sunday school class over to Brother Turner. For information on my two books you may check them out on the "Author Page" at the Xlibris Website: www.xlibris.com/Killion.html or contact me personally for a special "Author’s Discount" if you are interested.

We missed attending the Bible conference in Mt. Morris, Michigan this year and the one in Dover, Tennessee but heard that they were very good. We are looking forward to attending the First Annual Bible Conference of the Bible Believers Baptist Church in Naples, Idaho over 4th of July weekend. We had Brother Rick King come professing salvation and requesting scriptural baptism this quarter and we may have the baptism in Idaho this weekend. Several from the church here are traveling over for the meeting at BBBC.

Lines of communication have opened again with Alex Zazhitko in Chernigov, Ukraine. You may remember we almost went there in 09 to baptize, ordain and the organization of a Sovereign Grace Landmark Baptist Church but everything suddenly shut down. It turns out that certain false brethren were sending forged emails to Alex as if they were from me saying that we were no longer interested in the work there. I was told that he had abandoned the work and moved to southern Ukraine to take a mega church but that was not true. He is now in contact with someone in Mississippi that is working with him. Pray for them.

Our church attendance has been up and down and still needs more improvement. Our First Friday of the Month Fellowship continues to be a blessing. Guest speakers this quarter were Jim Tweet, Jim Hunt and Jim Turner. Our Tract a Day Club recorded 331 tracts handed out for this quarter. Pray that we would be more effectual in reaching out to the lost and unchurched. Brother Turner and Brother Bob Ellis finished chemo treatments and are both doing very well thank the Lord. Sister Cookie is recovering from heart surgery and cataract surgery. Pray for her as there are complications with her diabetes and also glaucoma.

Our Missionaries thank you for your prayers. Brother Bob Ellis in Ireland saw his cancer Dr. on 4/22 about the latest PET scan and after another cat scan that went well. They are now working on setting up a bone marrow transplant. Brother Cresencio Baldemor, in the Philippines is doing well. He had his 84th birthday in June. Funds are needed for Lawa-an building project and travel expenses. Pray also for political peace and safety from fanatics of other religions that are a threat to Christians in certain places on Mindanao. Remember our older members in prayer and those in distant places. Thanks again for your faithful prayers. Pray for those in uniform and for our country; we need God now more than ever. Even so, Come Lord Jesus!
AMEN.
