1 Cor. 15:52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
Bunyan, John

Unchain it and it will defend itself.

I spent many years of my life wandering from God. If I
have learned but one lesson, it is that I would sooner face
danger in partnership with Him than a life of ease apart
from Him.
~John Bunyan (Author of Pilgrim’s Progress)
Theodore Roosevelt’s ideas on Immigrants and being an AMERICAN in 1907.
“In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person’s becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American…There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn’t an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag… We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language… and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.”
~Theodore Roosevelt 1907~
Some church members are like wheelbarrows — not good unless pushed.
Some are like canoes — need to be paddled.
Some are like kites — if a string isn’t kept on them, they fly away.
Some are like kittens — more contented when petted.
Some are like balloons — full of wind and ready to blow up.
Some are like footballs — you can’t tell which way they’ll bounce next.
Some are like trailers — they have to be pulled.
Some are like neon lights — they keep going on and off.
Many, thank goodness, are like the North Star — there when you need them, dependable and ever loyal.
The woman was made of a rib out of the side of Adam;
not made out of his head to rule over him,
nor out of his feet to be trampled on by him;
but out of his side to be equal to him,
under his arm to be protected,
and near his heart to be loved.
~Matthew Henry
