  First Saturday KENTUCKY DERBY   Deuteronomy, Chapter 6, Verse 1-2 1 This then is the commandment, the statutes and the ordinances, which the LORD, your God, has commanded that you be taught to observe in the land you are about to cross into to possess, 2 so that you, that is, you, your child, and your grandchild, may FEAR the LORD, your God, by keeping, as long as you live, all his statutes and commandments which I enjoin on you, and thus have long life.   Those that fear the Lord have a great love for Him. “If you love me you will keep my commandments” (Jn. 14:15)   Put to death, then, the parts of you that are earthly: immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and the greed that is idolatry.

  Thursday of the Fourth Week of Easter NATIONAL PRAYER DAY-ST. FLORIAN-STAR WARS DAY   Acts, Chapter 13, verse 16 So, Paul got up, motioned with his hand, and said, “Fellow Israelites and you others who are GOD- FEARING , listen. The Apostle Paul Gestured. Most effective speaker’s gesture. A gesture is defined by The American Heritage College Dictionary as “a motion of the limbs of body made to express thought of to emphasize speech.”   Surely, every gospel preacher should want to emphasize his sermon. Let’s look to see what the Bible teaches about such. As Paul was asked by the rulers of the synagogue, “. . . if you have any word of exhortation for the people, say on. Then Paul stood up, and beckoning with his hand said, Men of Israel, and ye that fear God, give audience” (Acts 13:15-16). The apostle Paul knew that gestures can help to enforce the oral expression in gospel preaching. In Jerusalem, “. . . Paul stood on the stairs, and beckoned with the hand unt...
