Ep #64 One Nation Under God

With the recent celebration of Independence Day on July 4, many of us spent time with family—watching parades and fireworks, camping, grilling out, and proudly wearing our red, white, and blue. And here in our little church, we did the same! Today, Gary Froiland returned with a powerful message focused on our great nation. He shared a wealth of information about the founding of America—fascinating history that included heroic figures like George Washington, Paul Revere, and John Adams. But did you know there’s more to the story than what most of us were taught in school? What did Benjamin Franklin say when the Continental Congress found itself at a standstill while forming our new government? And what’s the real story behind the often-quoted phrase “separation of church and state”—a phrase many associate with the First Amendment? This jam-packed message is sure to stir your patriotic spirit and leave you both inspired and informed.

Our building was originally constructed in 1861 and is the oldest protestant church building in continuous use in our county. Many people have come and gone throughout the generations, but our goal will always remain: To Serve Jesus only, and learn from His Living Word, the Scriptures. Our small church body are all admittedly sinners, that openly strive to improve our walk daily, but also understand that we are Redeemed by the shed blood of Christ Jesus and declared innocent in God’s eyes due to Grace Alone! There is no act of baptism, charity or observation of communion that deems us worthy. No amount of following the law of Moses, or the ever-popular observation of legalism in many churches today that will save us. That is us believing in ourselves, rather than what Christ did for us completely. If you struggle with understanding the concept of salvation or are plagued by false teachings of following traditions rather than Christ alone, please do not hesitate to reach out to us. We would love to help! Please watch our archive of messages on a variety of topics.

Most importantly, be sure you are secure in your relationship with God and Christ Jesus. It is so simple. Do not wait.
