The Arnolds were married on August 11, 1964—at St. Paul's Missionary Baptist Church by Pastor Anthony Robinson. When asked what has been the key to their successful marriage, they both agree it's been Jesus—walking in total agreement and serving the Lord. They also stated that trust is the heart of their marriage. When it comes to making decisions, they sometimes agree to disagree --realizing they don't always need to have their way. Irv states that Carolyn could be counted on to care for the family and Carolyn states that Irv could be counted on to take responsibility for the family finances. The Arnold have children and grandchildren and live in Ypsilanti.

NEWS FLASH!!!!

Our acceptability of God's law doesn't change the validity of God's law. The Bible doesn't need to be upgraded!  
God doesn't have to alter His rules to adjust to what we call changing times.
No matter our feelings or view points, right and wrong are still determined by God. 
Right and wrong are not determined by a popular consensus or a national poll. " For I the Lord do not change..."( Mal .3:6 )

Don't be fooled by the messenger, pay attention to the message.  If the message doesn't line up with the word of God, cast it down!! Don't follow the crowd. Our walk as True Christians is not a popularity contest; follow Jesus!

Till next time, 
Pastor J

Part IV September 2021
Change
"Change is a matter of choice. We can't just passively sit around doing nothing and expect our lives to get better. We must make healthy choices to use the resources God gives us, and the first healthy choice is to carefully choose what we think about. The good news is that God can change your mental auto pilot far faster than you can He specializes in giving you a new mindset."

This month, first pray and ask God to help you. Then make one healthy change to your lifestyle. How about one meatless meal in a whole month? Or how about one 15 minute walk each week? How about taking pizza off of your food choices for the month? Or switching water for sugary juices and soda for just one day each week.? These are easy and just some examples—so come with your own ideas.
