November Meeting

by - 1:31 PM

I have been meaning to sit down and post for well over a week now, about our meeting. We had Bro. Ricky Harcrow in, and he was abundantly blessed all weekend. It was so refreshing to hear him, expound on the truths of the doctrines that we hold so dear as Primitive Baptist. Just this afternoon while Gary and Britt were both down for a nap, I listened to one of them again. He on Thursday he talked about Jesus as a man, who was sacrificed for our sins, everyone went on and on about that one, but I missed most of it. I plan to listen to it soon. On Friday he talked about how the truth that we understand is a precious mystery that has been revealed to us. That many in the old testament times could only look forward with expectation, not understanding as fully as we do know Christ and all he would accomplish, and that one day we will understand even better. I enjoyed that sermon alot, and got to hear most of it. That night he preached on somethings that we can loose as God's children, drawing a very clear line using scripture that we can never lose our heavenly home as that is dependent on the work of Christ alone, but that we can loose the joy of our salvation here and that we can loose out on close fellowship with God and his people if we fail to live the way that He has commanded in His word, a very practical sermon, but one with alot of grace and love. Friday night the girls spent the night at the Church. I agreed to chaperon and Gary came along to protect us from any would be ax murderers. We had a great time, sitting around on air mattresses, talking, and playing games like Catchphrase (I so want that game) and Charades.
The next morning he preached on the different aspects of the kingdoms of God - talked about how it was revealed in Prophesy through Rebecca when God chose Jacob but not Essau. About how it is manifest as the Church today, and how one day we will enjoy it fully. Saturday afternoon about 20 of us went down to the park and walked around. We had a very good time visiting and running around. All the girls wanted to push Britt and he loved the trees and the company and watching the river. It was a nice way to relax and visit together.
Regretfully I can't tell you anything about Saturday or Sunday mornings sermon as Britt and I spent more time outside with him fussing than in the building. But I'm confident that they were just as good messages, full of comfort and inspiring us to work hard to walk in a way that would be pleasing to God.
