FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS - 9-11

-

 

LET'S ROLL!

On this 19th anniversary of 9-11 our hearts are full as we reflect on that historic day. Indeed we will never be the same.  No doubt you remember where you were when you first heard the news.

While many today dishonor and disrespect these United States of America, count us among the grateful and admiring citizens of the greatest nation in the world.

Americans are not of one religion, race, or ethnicity.  We have different experiences, different educations, and different economic circumstances.

What unites us is our common commitment be "one nation, under God, indivisible, with life and liberty for all."  (The Pledge to the Flag).

Being American is a matter of spirit.  We are God fearing.  We are family oriented.  We are truth seeking.  We are compassionate and caring.  And we are determined to protect and to defend the nation we love.

On that fateful 9-11-2001 as United Airlines Flight 93 was commandeered by Islamic terrorists Todd Beamer knew that unless someone did something, his flight was fated for disaster.  Quietly organizing the willing on board the flight, Beamer signaled it was time for action crying out, "LET'S ROLL!"  

While Beamer and his fellow Americans could not save themselves or their plane, they did save Washington D C the horror of another plane as missile attack.  

Given our nation's plight today, I take great inspiration and courage from Beamer who refused to sit and cower in fear or inaction, but who believed in something--even if it meant he would sacrifice his everything.  CHRISTIANS!  LET'S ROLL!

GOD has ordained that FCC'S 24TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION would align perfectly with ROSH HASHANA -- THE FEAST OF TRUMPETS -- The beginning of the Jewish New Year--The 1,993rd since our Savior's Ascension.

THIS YEAR'S ANNIVERSARY REVIVAL has taken on fresh urgency in light of world and national affairs. THE NEED FOR A MIGHTY AWAKENING HAS NEVER BEEN MORE ACUTE.

LIVESTREAM GIFT

This week we prayed fervently for the financing to purchase updated Livestreaming equipment.  We should not have been surprised, but we were, when just shortly after we prayed God laid it on the heart of one of our viewers to send in a very generous contribution designated for our Livestream Ministry.  

With this upgrade viewers will be able to easily watch us on YOUTUBE at FCCSTL-Live, on FACEBOOK LIVESTREAM, and by going to our Webpage www.fccstlouis.org.  

THANK YOU FOR PRAYING!

REMEMBER OUR NATION!

REMEMBER OUR CHURCHES!

REMEMBER OUR FAMILIES!

REMEMBER OUR PERSONAL NEED FOR REVIVAL!


ONWARD PR

  READ THESE TESTIMONIES SENT THIS WEEK: "WHAT A POWERFUL MESSAGE YOU HAD YESTERDAY. RIGHT BEFORE YOU SAID THE FIRST 'BEND ME' I WAS THINKING YOU WERE GOING TO SAY MOLD ME...I'M TRYING HARD TO BE A SEEKER..." (Online Attender) "I REACHED OUT TO TWO PEOPLE SAYING I WAS SORRY. I TOO HAVE FORGIVEN THEM ALTHOUGH ONE OF THE PEOPLE WAS REALLY HARD FOR ME TO DO SO...THIS IS REALLY HARD AND I WILL KEEP  PRAYING BECAUSE THIS PERSON HAS PUT MUCH DIVISION BETWEEN MY FAMILY FOR MANY YEARS..." (A seeker at the Altar) "I HAVE BEEN FREE OF THE POT FOR A MONTH...I KNOW I COULD NOT HAVE DONE THESE THINGS ON MY OWN AND GIVE ALL THE CREDIT TO JESUS AND THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT. I CONTINUE TO PRAY TO GOD TO KEEP FORMING ME INTO WHAT HE WANTS. IT IS SO FREEING TO SUBMIT TO GOD! PRAISE HIM" (Attended last week) Last Sunday we were impressed by the Holy Spirit to preach on the urgency of revival. Our hearts were moved by the message of Evan Roberts, the 26 year o...

PUT YOUR FACE WHERE YOUR FAITH GROWS

Three forces are conspiring to defeat the church.  One force is behind them all! 1. COVID19   Brought to America from Communist China the virus has touched both great and small.  Millions have been infected (millions more have yet to be), and thousands have died.  What's worse, the fear of the virus is greater than the actual virus.   Fear has kept millions from the Houses of Worship--some have been ordered to stay away by governments, others have been ordered to stay away by concerned family and friends, and then there are those who have calculated that church is not actually essential so it's not worth the risk attending. 2. SECULARISM  An increasing number of Americans identify as "NONES" when it comes to religious conviction or preference.  Militant atheists have aggressively pursued every Christian symbol or expression of faith in the public square.  Before the virus hit weekly church attendance had fallen from 40% of Americans to b...

FIAT OVER FAITH - HOW PROGRESSIVES OPPOSE RELIGIOUS LIBERTY

-
Image
  DEMOCRATS LOATHE RELIGIOUS LIBERTY IT DOES NOT FIT THEIR AGENDAs The issue today is no longer whether progressive dogmas from abortion and marriage equality to gender identity will prevail. Most already have. The question now is whether those who dissent from the new orthodoxy will be permitted to live their lives and run their institutions in accordance with their beliefs. ... As a part of Obamacare, the administration in which Mr Biden served as Vice President, issued a rule requiring Catholic care providers like the Little Sisters of the Poor to violate their convictions by paying for contraception and abortifacients for their employees or face ruinous fines. The Sisters have since won at the Supreme Court. Mr Biden's response? Restore the mandate with the fake exemptions the Little Sisters objected to in the first place. A Biden Harris administration would mean a federal bureaucracy less interested in accommodating religious Americans and their institutions than in constric...
