Passage: Psalm 146
Series: Holiday Specials
Duration: 1 hr 38 mins 10 secs

Have you ever considered what a lot of courage it took to be a signer of the Declaration of Independence? One of the signers is remembered by the size of his signature. Listen to this message to learn he was not only brave, but a believer in the Lord Jesus Christ and expressed his belief in his last will and testament. Study one of the praise psalms, #146, and see that many of the characteristics of God it details concern the Messiah. Note the warning in the psalm that we are not to put our hopes on any government or man to solve problems that can only be solved by God.

This message includes the cowling ceremony for Dr. Mark Musser.

Is the death penalty morally right? Listen to this message to learn that capital punishment is mandated by God and is necessary to provide safety for people.
