Easter Message From Rev. Ken Joseph Jr.
April 7, 07
I. Good News!
`The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing!` ......Edmund Burke
"It is not the critic who counts: Not the man who points out how
the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done them better.
The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena,whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up shortagain and again...who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at thebest, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly..." Theodore Rosevelt
`The World has yet to see what God will do with and in and for and
by the man or woman who is fully and wholly consecrated to Him.` D.L. Moody
`The one concern of the devil is to keep Christians frompraying. He fears nothing from prayerless work, prayerlessstudies or prayerless religion. He laughs at our toils,mocks our wisdom but trembles when we pray!`....Samuel Chadwick
