A flash from the past, circa early 60's. You would be hard pressed to hear the words of this song, or any like them, anywhere these days. Modern day professing Christendom has settled right down in this ol' world [cf. Rev. 3:17] - fat, happy, and loving life in Babylon... Rev. 18:4

1John 2:17 'And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth forever.'

ReplyDeleteThe apostle Paul assures us....
"For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power , and of love, and of a sound mind. Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me His prisoner: but be thou partaker of the afflictions of the Gospel according to the power of God; Who hath saved us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began. But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Savior Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the Gospel; Whereunto I am appointed a preacher, and an apostle, and a teacher to the Gentiles; For which cause I also suffer these things; nevertheless I am not ashamed; for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that He is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day."
2 Tim 1:7-12
