Reflection On the Scripture Ep 33 :The Middle East Pt. 2

Pastor Taylor continues his deep dive into the Middle east conflict currently controlling the news cycles. We Pray for all those who are suffering nation wide.  Psalm 128 A song of ascents. 1 Blessed are all who fear the Lord,     who walk in obedience to him. 2 You will eat the fruit of your labor;     blessings and prosperity will be yours. 3 Your wife will be like a fruitful vine     within your house; your children will be like olive shoots     around your table. 4 Yes, this will be the blessing     for the man who fears the Lord. 5 May the Lord bless you from Zion;     may you see the prosperity of Jerusalem     all the days of your life. 6 May you live to see your children’s children—     peace be on Israel. Pastor Lawrence Taylor of The Kenilworth Baptist Church

Reflection On the Scripture Ep 32: What's Going On In The Middle East?

The middle east has been plagued with wars for generations and in today's time we see the conflict heating up to an all-time high. Pastor Taylor does his best to guide you through what the bible has to say about the middle east as it pertains to Isarael.  Deuteronomy 20:1-4 [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Deuteronomy+20%3A1-4&version=ESV]  “When you go out to war against your enemies and see horses and chariots and an army larger than your own, you shall not be afraid of them, for the Lord your God is with you, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt. And when you draw near to the battle, the priest shall come forward and speak to the people and shall say to them, ‘Hear, O Israel, today you are drawing near for battle against your enemies: let not your heart faint. Do not fear or panic or be in dread of them, for the Lord your God is he who goes with you to fight for you against your enemies, to give you the victory.’ Pastor Lawrence Taylor of The Kenilworth Baptist Church

Reflection On the Scripture Ep 31: Exploring The Ancient World

There will be no peace amongst men in the land of the living until the Lord God Jesus Christ returns to free man from his own damnation. Until then there will be conflict, wars. and disagreements. Pastor Taylor draws light to these issues and many others using the word of God.   The Glory of God in His Goodness to Israel To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. A Song. 68 26 Bless God in the congregations, The Lord, from the fountain of Israel. 27 There is little Benjamin, their leader, The princes of Judah and their [j [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm%2068&version=NKJV#fen-NKJV-14928j]]company, The princes of Zebulun and the princes of Naphtali. 28 [k [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm%2068&version=NKJV#fen-NKJV-14929k]]Your God has commanded your strength; Strengthen, O God, what You have done for us. 29 Because of Your temple at Jerusalem, Kings will bring presents to You. 30 Rebuke the beasts of the reeds, The herd of bulls with the calves of the peoples, Till everyone submits himself with pieces of silver. Scatter the peoples who delight in war. 31 Envoys will come out of Egypt; Ethiopia will quickly stretch out her hands to God. 32 Sing to God, you kingdoms of the earth; Oh, sing praises to the Lord, Selah 33 To Him who rides on the heaven of heavens, which were of old! Indeed, He sends out His voice, a mighty voice. 34 Ascribe strength to God; His excellence is over Israel, And His strength is in the clouds. 35 O God, You are more awesome than Your holy places. The God of Israel is He who gives strength and power to His people. Blessed be God! Pastor Lawrence Taylor of The Kenilworth Baptist Church

Reflection On the Scripture Ep 30: The Great Divide

The division amongst Christians has been a regularly used tactic from Satan himself to try and sabotage the army or God. Keeping people divided and in constant conflict with one another is an easy way to distract from the greatness of God. In today's episode Pastor Taylor once again bridges the gap between scripture and the current state of humanity.      2nd  Timothy 3 3 But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. 2 People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3 without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, 4 treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God— 5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people. 6 They are the kind who worm their way into homes and gain control over gullible women, who are loaded down with sins and are swayed by all kinds of evil desires, 7 always learning but never able to come to a knowledge of the truth. 8 Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so also these teachers oppose the truth. They are men of depraved minds, who, as far as the faith is concerned, are rejected. 9 But they will not get very far because, as in the case of those men, their folly will be clear to everyone. Pastor Lawrence Taylor of The Kenilworth Baptist Church
