A Word on isolation and quarantine.

-
      The periods of isolation and quarantine started in New York State and most states in the USA in March of 2020. In Mid-March partial quarantines turned to full quarantines. Personally my employer began full quarantines and stay at home the third week of March. 3 months has meant isolation, quarantine, no human contact closer than 6 feet. Since the start it is church on facebook, Classes, work and family contact online and through phone and video conferencing. The world is a much different place. A friend before this crisis was a bone fide germophobe at least according to them. Now they are having a good laugh at my expense because I and millions of others have joined their team.  We are all trapped at home and in a world that we can only hope and pray that God will return to normal. God's people have got a lot of praying ahead; because we are in a new world where every surface or person could be viral.

Christmas ?

-
                                                                   Christmas?   Christmas, Easter the Sabbath day bring disputes over whether they are PAGAN or is it the right day. So earlier in the last few weeks I overheard a conversation between a sister in Christ when she tried to witness to a person. As she was witnessing he asked her "but what about the Sabbath when do you worship" and she admitted on Sunday. The person then said "what about Christmas do you celebrate" and she said "yes" and he immediately began to talk about the fact that sunday was not the sabbath and Christmas is pagan day and we do not know when Jesus was actually born. The message of the Gospel could have been sidetracked as she tried to defend celebrating Christmas and Sundays. We are going to speak about her response later.    2 Timothy 2:14 says "Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before the Lord that they strive not about words to no profit, but to

Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm. 27 But the men marvelled, saying, What manner of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him! Matthew 14:22-32 22 Immediately Jesus made His disciples get into the boat and go before Him to the other side, while He sent the multitudes away. 23 And when He had sent the multitudes away, He went up on the mountain by Himself to pray. Now when evening came, He was alone there. 24 But the boat was now in the middle of the sea, tossed by the waves
