Pastor Wayne writes:
According to the 2nd London Baptist Confession of 1689: “The acceptable way of worshiping the true God is instituted by Himself, and so limited by His own revealed will, that He may not be worshiped according to the imagination and devices of men, nor in any other way not prescribed in the Holy Scriptures!”
Sadly, that requirement of fidelity to the Scriptures and faithfulness to God regarding our times of corporate worship was not communicated to the majority of today’s ministers. Hence, the worship wars of the last 20-years that ended with the entertainment-based worship services of our day. Quite frankly, since they are not worshipful to God, they are worthless to man, and while they may attract lost people to “attend,” they are a “distraction” to their stated purpose for attending.
The title of this sermon is “Return to Me! The Rebuke of Religion”.
Please let us know how we may be of help to your personal spiritual growth! Pastor Wayne

Dear Fellow Watchmen,
With all that is going on in the world today, many parents are in a quandary as to what they should be telling their children. However, it should be no different than preparing them for a weather-related storm – you tell them as much of the truth as you think they are able to comprehend, include them in the physical and spiritual preparation for it, and assure them through prayer, that God will be with them through it all.
For parents of young children, Psalm 111:10 is a good place to begin. “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.” Warm fuzzy feelings about God, about Jesus, and about the Holy Spirit might bring them comfort in a time of peace, but when trouble comes, they need to know about the God whom they can trust.
Beloved, God is shaking the nations to get our attention! Let’s be honest with our children about what is happening and why. In other words, rather than getting angry over the obvious and intentional destruction of our normal way of life, we need to prepare ourselves and our children to live in a much different future.
