   106.5 The Promise   
      
   Good morning. We have a full-blown Nor'easter this morning here in   
   downtown Jacksonville.   
      
      
      
   The weather was so bad that I wasn't able to get to church this   
   morning, so I watched the morning worship service on television.   
      
   First Baptist Church of Jacksonville broadcasts their morning worhsip   
   service live every Sunday morning.   
      
   The choir, which is 400 voices strong, sang my favorite gospel song.   
   "Rock of Ages"   
      
   Dr. Jerry Vines wonderful sermon this morning was about 2 Peter 2:1-9.   
      
   That particular Bible passage deals with false prophets and their   
   followers. Their deceptions, their defective teachings, and their   
   ultimate destruction.   
      
   I can relate to Lot. I've been saved, but I'm tormented by the   
   temptations I face every day. But God knows how to deliver the godly   
   out of temptations. So unlike Lot, I pitch my tent toward Him. For   
   lack of a better metaphor.   
      
   It looks like I'll be spending the entire day in the house as the   
   weather continues to get worse...   
      
   It will give me a chance to catch up on my reading and writing, and to   
   clean up my apartment a bit.   
      
   I am not a rich man by any stretch of the imagination. However, I have   
   a roof over my head, food on the table, shoes on my feet, and more   
   importantly, I have the Lord in my heart. So in that sense, I'm the   
   richest man in the world.
