After His Own Heart - Part 1

“The LORD hath sought Him a man after his own heart

Scripture Reading: 1 Samuel 13:10-14. 

What was in David’s heart that caused God to have the Prophet Samuel say, “the LORD hath sought him a man after his own heart”?  This is said once in 1 Samuel 13:15   Why does this stick in many people’s minds?  What was in David’s heart that caused God to call him “a man after his own heart”?  Why is David the only member of Adam’s Race to be called of God “a man after his own heart”?

Five Kernals of Corn

By Norma Q. Hare

Of The General Society of Mayflower Descendants

It was a good, gray day on November 15, 1620.  The “Mayflower” rode at anchor near the shore, while a group of eager men set sail out in a small boat to explore the desolate, barren land in which they’d come.  One of the first things they discovered near the beach was a deserted cornfield where the dry, broken stalks rustled in the sharp wind.   Nearby they saw several strange mounds.  Upon digging into one, they were amazed to find odd-looking yellow, red and blue Indian corn.  They took some with them to use for seed when they planted their crops in the spring.  They couldn’t know then how important that corn would prove to be in the colony’s future.

Isaiah

SCRIPTURE READING: Isaiah 51:1-6

INTRODUCTION

My comment: have you noticed that everything in America that is righteous is being abolished? America has forgotten her father, Abraham. This is a key Scripture regarding race.

It is generally understood that the ten tribes of Israel entered Assyrian captivity in various stages, culminating in a three-year siege (began 723 BC) with the capital city of Samaria and its fall in 720 BC. Likewise, that Judah’s Babylonian captivity was completed by 585 BC. The prophecies of the prophets came in Israel’s history. The prophets did not always predict the future; in fact they seldom did. But the prophet was a spokesperson for God (a preacher). The writings of the prophets were directed to God’s people during one of the lowest spiritual and moral times of their history.

And so it is today with America and the west.

Scripture Reading:  Ezekiel 8:13-14

The House of Israel and twenty-two cities of the House of Judah were taken captive by the Assyrians.  The House of Israel was given a bill of divorcement from Almighty God.  This ten-tribe House of Israel wouldn’t be put back into the covenant that God made with their fathers for about 700 years from the time that Ezekiel was shown this vision.  By the time they were put back, they had become many nations living in different parts of the world.  They had no hope of salvation without the sacrifice and resurrection of their Messiah.  There wasn’t one thing that they could do.

God, Family AND Nation

by Alan Breitenstein

  • To sacrifice your life for one is great love.
  • To sacrifice your life for two is greater love.
  • To sacrifice your life for all three is the greatest love of all.

The European descent nations have turned their back on God’s laws and due to that God’s people have been caged in. The doors and the windows of the asylum have been barred. The heads of the asylum have taken control and confiscated all property of the children of God and even their children.

God's Law

by Garry Maddux

Part 1:  In this study, the author discusses the importance of studying God’s holy law. There are many reasons but the most important is the law describes sin. The modern church believes the law is done away with. Changing the law makes God angry and it risks being taken out of the book of life. There are rewards and blessings from God for meditating on his laws.

Part 2:  This lesson reviews the first eight laws: I am the Lord; There is only one God; Mediate upon his commandants; Fear the Lord; Serve the Lord; Cleave to God and the wise; Swear by his name; Emulate God

Opening Scripture, I Jn 5:1-3

Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him. 2  By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments. 3  For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous. 

As we begin our journey into the laws of God, we start with what Paul says,  

First Hand Knowledge

by Walter Giddings

October 23, 2022

Greetings Kindred and fellow sheep in the name of Christ, our Shepherd.

Opening Scripture:  Acts 4:18-20

18 And they called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor  teach in the name of Jesus. 

19 But Peter and John answered and said unto them, Whether it be right in the sight of God to hearken unto you more than unto God, judge ye. 

20 For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard. 

How potent is that?  Is their Testimony based upon first hand knowledge?

Esther

Sermon by Jim Jester

October 9, 2022

SCRIPTURE READING: Psalm 58:3

The book of Esther is the last of the twelve historical books. The author’s name is not mentioned, and neither is the name of God, which has led many to believe it is a spurious book, not belonging within the canon of Scripture. The so-called feast of Purim (named after the city of Pur) has its origin in this book, not the Pentateuch. The hero and heroine of the book bear the names of the chief Babylonian god and goddess: Marduk (Mordecai) and Ishtar (Esther… or Easter). Another point that seems inconsistent, if the book of Esther is genuine, is that Esther, the niece of Mordecai, became the queen of King Ahasuerus because of her great beauty. Though we are not told, it may be assumed that Esther fulfilled the duties of a wife with the Persian King. If this is true, then the mating with a foreign king was gross sin (unless, of course, he was Adamic). No part of Esther was found in the Dead Sea Scrolls. Many scholars simply consider the book a novel.
