I was sitting down doing some homework, when I got another urge to
write.  while thinking about someof the things I have seen, I don't know 
why many of the things I write deal with them.  Most any more seem
to be on coming back to the old paths which if any has been reading on 
my web page, that is most of my writtings.  well tell me what you think
of it either here on HF or private email-  park4864@mailclerk.ecok.edu.
so with out futher adue:  BP.
Pass it on if you think it would help someone.

My Friends,
I come to you again to remind you of the things that God has given us to look
after and to teach.
Some may know these things and still live them, to them I write keep the faith
and God will supply the needs.  To those who do not know or do not follow I
write to learn the old paths and follow them. 

For Many in this time and day have started to let go of the paths that were laid
out before us.  They have  decided that they were not a part of us so let them
continue on their own way and let us continue in the path God has laid out for
us.

Remember the salvation that was given to us?  Of the blood of atonement shed by
our precious savior? of the precious Gift of the Holy Spirit that was first
poured out on the day of Pentecost? Of  Repentance of our sins?  Of Holiness?

Repentance is still the path to forgiveness.  It has not changed, but many today
still walk in the ways  of the world before coming to the assembly and
professing Jesus Christ.  This should never be said of us as followers of the
Lord And Savior.  Our old ways were laid down at the cross when we repented, why
pick them up again when all it will lead to is destruction?

Baptism is the way of applying the blood of remission of our sins.  This is the
appliance of the atonement for our sins to our lives.  The message has not
changed, it is still necessary to be baptized in the name of our Lord for in his
name was the message of remission of sins to be preached.

The Holy Ghost as the apostle said is our seal of righteousness. Without it how
can we expect to continue to live a holy life and to learn all the truth as our
Lord God commanded.  Without it we are powerless and will fall back into the
paths of the world that we had left.  But with it, we have the power of God
Almighty in us which means that we have to power to defeat our enemy the devil
and win the victory.  Also the Holy Spirit is our teacher of righteousness.

Holiness, it is still a commandment of God.  He has never done away with it. 
Holiness is part of our lives, it is the way of life for the people of God. 
Without it, how can we present ourselves before the Lord God? 
 I know that the flesh does rise up and we may fall at times, but that is the
place that the grace of God comes in.  When we come to him in repentance, he
forgives us and restores us to the place of Holiness.  We are covered in
holiness and righteousness only by the Grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, but that
does not exclude us from trying our best to live righteously.  The grace makes
up for what we fail to accomplish.

These are key tenants of our faith and should never be taken lightly, teach them
to the new converts  and remind the saints of them at times.    But these are
only the milk of the substance, there is so much more to God, but it only
expounds upon these tenants.

I leave you in the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ,
Brandon Parker.
