I just joined the “Y” to help me get some exercise so I can preach the Gos- pel a little longer on this earth. To live in a place where the YMCA is located is a real treat. When we were in Selmer, Tennessee, the “Y” was known as the median where the road would “Y” - and yes, it was the hang out spot for all the local kids. I do not know “Why.” The words “what, where, when, and why” all lead to our decisions any given day. Each seems to be equal in weight. “What” will I eat for lunch today? “Where” will I go to lunch? "When” will the preacher be done so I can eat? Why, however, seems to have a greater influence on the rest. Where will I go to eat for lunch today? Why? Because I am hungry and if I do not eat, my stomach will tell everyone of my decision. If I ignore my stomach my body will start retaining water and conserve till it begins us- ing up stored energy in my body, and I will waste away. “Why” has more impact because it challenges the decision behind every “what,” “where,” and “when.” If our “why” is right, then every “what,” “where,” and “when” will be right. If our “why” is wrong, then our actions will be just as wrong and even lead to worse consequences down the road. Our “why” is our purpose, and the others are our results. Solomon, the wisest man to live before Christ, explains what our “why” must be. “The end of the matter; all has been heard. Fear God and keep his com- mandments, for this is the whole duty of man. For God will bring every deed into judgment, with every secret thing, whether good or evil” (Ecclesiastes 12:13,14).

All parents are invited Youth Retreat—Nov. 10-12 Serge Shoemaker - Speaker Behold Your God – Part 4 For the church to be successful in her God given work we must keep our eyes on God. We must see God as He really is. He is the God who has sov- ereignty over the world. Assyria would threaten Judah and it looked as if they might conquer them but God assured His people that “Therefore thus says the LORD concerning the king of Assyria: 'He shall not come into this city, Nor shoot an arrow there, Nor come before it with shield, Nor build a siege mound against it” (2 Kgs. 19:32). Later Judah would be attacked and conquered by Babylon because they had begun to look to other nations for help. They had made alliances with Egypt instead of trusting in God. Babylon was a great power but God was still in control and He could have saved Israel had they been faithful to Him. Today we hear people expressing fears about the possibility of another war. There are concerns about what North Korea might do and how we will react to whatever they choose to do. We need to understand that God will allow nations to do what they will, but He will have the last word. God was the originator of the nations (Gen. 10, 11), and He is still in charge and we need to understand that His ulti- mate will, will be accomplished. We need to behold our God as the God of holiness. God spoke and said, “To whom then will you liken Me, Or to whom shall I be equal?" says the Holy One.” (Isa. 40:25). It would seem that this is the one attribute that God would have us to remember Him by. Isaiah called God the “Holy One” some thirty times. What does the holiness of God mean? Holi- ness means “separate; apart from.” When the Bible speaks of the holiness of God it means that God is separated from sin. God can have no part with sin. In Exodus 32 we read of Aaron building the golden calf for the people of Israel. Later in Exodus 33:5 we read God’s warning to them, “if I go up into the midst of thee for a moment, I shall consume thee.” That is why Moses set up the tent of meeting outside of the camp, far off from the camp. Later Moses prayed to God saying, “If now I have found grace in Your sight, O Lord, let my Lord, I pray, go among us, even though we are a stiff-necked people; and pardon our iniquity and our sin, and take us as Your inheri- tance” (Exodus. 34:9). Then when the tabernacle was built God entered in. When Israel turned back to God they were forgiven and God was then able to dwell among them. When God’s children live in obe- dience to His will, God will dwell among us. CIA CHRISTIANS IN ACTION Mark your calendars for September 12. We will begin Bible classes for men and women on Tuesday September 12. There will be a luncheon also on this day, please bring your favorite dish or two.
