May 31, 2011... Training Materials

Greetings to each of you on this warm and sunny Tuesday morning.

PERSONAL NOTE: First, let me offer thanks to all who have given their lives in battle for the United States of America. Even though i was never in the military, I salute you! We as a nation are grateful for those who have paid the ultimate price so that the rest of us can enjoy peace and security.

Second, I want to thank Jan Foltz, my lovely wife, for the special music that she supplied Sunday. Wonderful message, Jan.

YOU CAN KNOW THE WILL OF GOD: In the little Book of Jude, in the New Testament and verse 22, it says, "Be merciful to those who doubt;". The KJV says "compassion" . The idea is that we are to be merciful to the one who has doubts... doubts about biblical ideas, about certain doctrines, about certain teachings due to the influence of Bible teachers. We must be patient and compassionate with those who just don't see it our way. Ask God to give them the insight that they need. Let's practice knowing the will of God.
