the "Full Gospel"

ctf • August 8, 2013

Over the years, as people have asked literally thousands of questions during the Q&A sessions that we speakers from Creation Truth Foundation run into … we begin to see a pattern.  Most questions can be answered from the Scriptures, in addition to from what modern science can tell us about the historicity of the Bible.

By this, what I’m trying to say is … many of the questions we get … are really just pleas for assurance in the face of the question “Is the Bible really true? … really, really, I mean.”  The answer of course is “yes.”  And our thinking here at CTF has become more and more clearly defined as “The Bible, the whole Bible, and nothing but the Bible, so help me God.”  Amen to that!
When we speak to an atheist group, or if the crowd is otherwise populated largely by unbelievers … we are accustomed to our Biblical authority not carrying much weight with our audience.  That’s to be expected.  But when we speak in a totally “Christian” setting … and we have people in the audience who are doubting the Bible’s literal and face-value authority … we have a real contradiction in terms there.  At least with the atheists — we know what they are believing and teaching!  With the compromising believers … you really never are quite sure of just –what– you’re getting!

So stick to your Bible.  We used to say “stick to your guns.”  And that’s not too far from the truth in this case.  I wonder if there –were– guns … in Paul’s day … if he would not have included a gun among the outfitting for a soldier, rather than a sword — representing the Word of God.

Hey, here in the mid-west (and also in the military) they have a saying — “Take good care of your gun, and it’ll take good care of you!”  The Word is powerful and swift as any two-barreled shotgun — ha — and certainly as any two-edged sword.  God bless, and “keep on thinking.”

Summer of 2025 is two-thirds finished. We have taught at 7 different camp weeks along with 6 VBSes. Ryan and I have had a busy summer for the Kingdom. Our travels have stretched from Ohio to Colorado and all points in between. We have taught in churches and connected with many supporters and friends. This summer, as usual, ministry has taken us away from family for periods, but there has been great returns for the sacrifice - more than fifteen souls have been added to God’s eternal Kingdom and even more seeds planted with life-changing fruit produced, from the young to old. Again and again we encounter students that are fired up with a passion for knowledge of the Word of God. As these students have found answers to questions or faith-challenging issues, they are better equipped to share their faith. This summer we have had the opportunity to reconnect with many students whom we taught at a younger age. Now they are in their teens or heading to college. Their testimonies of strengthened faith because of the mission God has called us to is more than rewarding. It never gets old to meet grandparents, or even great-grandparents, during VBS that have lived their lives as followers of Christ yet have never seen the impact of Genesis to the Gospel. Just yesterday this happened with a grandmother who was overjoyed and appreciative of our teaching and message. Knowing more about dinosaurs Biblically allows for them to have new lines of communication with their cherished grandkids. Our ability to give these great warriors of the faith answers that can impact their families for eternity is priceless to us.  Please continue to lift us up in prayer as our summer is not over yet. As always, know that your support is making an impact for the Kingdom that we are eternally grateful for. If you are thinking about having us come next summer, don’t hesitate to contact us as summers fill quicker than the rest of the year. Summer has and will continue to be a crazy busy time for Kingdom work. Blessings.
