There has been so many distorted misconceptions about the rich man and Lazarus. We formulate ideas about that because we have tunnel vision. That tunnel vision that we have concerning this story or any other story in the Bible limits us from expanding our minds and challenging the tradition that we have been brought up with. Samuel Wilberforce said it this way "Intelligent criticism can become the pathway to spiritual discovery, and that is true, because unless we challenge something, unless we critique something, then we will never go deeper than the shallow, or the surface thinking on that particular subject." |

Special Guest Pastor Ron Poch gives us a good word of hope and comfort in this time of distress. This
know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, and unholy. Now doesn't that fit the description of lot of people today, not only young people, but older people. They're unthankful and unholy, without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, high minded, lovers of pleasure more than lovers of God. Doesn't that describe our generation? It sound's like is straight out of the headlines of the newspapers today. |

There are different ways in the New Testament times and later in historical times, post New Testament
times that people were Jewish. There are five different ways. One of them is by birth, by geographical location, by religious, by being a religious proselyte or convert, by military conquest and number five, by national conversion. |

In the New Testament and we come to a man by the name of the Apostle Paul. Now we know that was not his original name. It was Saul. And Saul was the type of person that we must understand him before his conversion, so that we can understand what he says after his conversion. |

Everyone knows that our nation was founded upon Christian principles. It was founded upon the Mosaic principles of God's Word as found in the Old Covenant, as far as civil, and religious authority, and governmental authority, Judicial authority, it was founded upon the principles of God's Word, and those were landmarks by which our forefathers built this nation and built this government that they gave us. And we are standing on the shoulders of great men. Special Guest Coach Dave Daubenmire from Ohio. |

America today is not the America that I knew as a child. What is wrong? Our Scripture is found in Psalm 11 verse 3. "If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?" If the foundations crumble what can the righteous do? I would to introduce to you a man of God that is out on the forefront, I mean out there on the battle line of this war, this cultural war that we are fighting. This man is Coach Dave Daubenmire.

"Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance." (Psalm 33:12) As we look at the spiritual history of Great Britain, I want to just call off a few names that many of you will recognize. As we look into what God has done in that wonderful land, we see men like John Wycliffe. Way back in the 14th century he was a preacher, he was a Bible translator, He is known as the morning star of the reformation.
