ELECTION INFORMATION:


For the 10 Propositions: In the Printed version of the LINK Letter, the graphic error of a double box after each of the 10 propositions is in no way an encouragement of a NO selection. The graphic distortion has been removed on the online versions found elsewhere on this website. Please accept our sincere apology for any confusion.

WHAT ABOUT KEN PAXTON???
Discussed by Terry Lowry
with Host of the What's UP Radio Program

Attorney General Ken Paxton has been a friend for many, many years and has been endorsed numerous times in the LINK Letter.

There is no doubt that Ken, through his staff at the AGs office, has accomplished much for Texas. This is worthy of applause.

But did the filing for divorce by Angela Paxton change the equation? Angela Paxton cited adultery as the reason, basing her decision on Biblical grounds.

WHAT IS PAUL’S POINT IN ROMANS 8?
Discussed by Mark Lanier
with Biblical Literacy (www.Biblical-Literacy.com)

Day 1

WHY DOES OUR PERSONAL MINDSET ABOUT LIFE MATTER? DOES IT REALLY EFFECT OUR ATTITUDE AND DECISIONS?

Mark Lanier continues with his Romans series this week, explaining what he believes is the entire point of the book. What is the foundation? What is the chiasm that appears in Romans 8? And what is the outcome that Paul was hoping to achieve?

To view Mark Lanier’s video for this lesson, click here.

If you have a prayer request, need Scripture encouragement, or would like a copy of Mark’s lessons each week, email wantmore@biblical-literacy.org

QUESTIONS / ISSUES DISCUSSED:

THE FOUNDATION (Romans 8:1-4)

What was the greatest verdict in all of human history? Mark shares about his current trial in California, which involves Mark Zuckerberg! NOTE: This is NOT the greatest verdict Mark Lanier is talking about. Just to be clear : )

Why did Paul use certain language/words in Romans? Was he very deliberate?

BOTTOM LINE:

God sent His son, Jesus, to die on a cross for our sins. Does that mean He excuses our sin? Did He lower His standards for us? Tune in tomorrow as Mark expands on this.

STAYING COMMITTED
Discussed by Pastor Jarrett Stephens
with Champion Forest Baptist Church (www.ChampionForest.org)

Day 1

WHY DOES IT SEEM THAT WHENEVER CHRISTIANS ARE DOING GOD’S WORK, THE OPPOSITION WILL HIT FROM EVERY SIDE?

Pastor Jarrett Stephens continues in his sermon series entitled NEXT: From Northwest Houston to the World. The series is focusing on Nehemiah, whose burden for the people produced a bold faith to fulfill God’s promises.

This week, he will examine two threats that can short-circuit our commitment to God and how Nehemiah dealt with those threats.

Scripture Reference: Nehemiah 4-6

Find Pastor Jarrett Stephens’ sermon here.

If you have questions about a sermon, please contact Champion Forest at questions@cfbc.org

THREAT #1: Outside Opposition

Have you ever felt discouraged as you live a life dedicated to God?

Have you ever been rejected when you shared the Gospel?

Have you ever experienced outright persecution?

What was Nehemiah’s response to all of the above?

How did God answer Nehemiah’s prayer? Tune in tomorrow to find out!

PRAYER
Discussed by Terry Lowry
with Host of the What's UP Radio Program



Father,

As you stand watch over mankind, witnessing unfathomable evil, wickedness, and depravity, place your hand of protection over those who serve you and cry out to you.

Protect our children and grandchildren from the fiery darts of the devil and his minions. May we stand with you, Father, protecting our families.

Grant us discernment and wisdom to follow your ways. May we not grow weary in doing good.

May we worship you and you alone.

Accept our humble plea for protection, guidance, and provision. Guide our hands and feet to do unto others as we would want them to do to us.

May our words build up, not tear down.

And, Father, if you grant us tomorrow, let’s repeat.

Lifting this prayer to your throne room in and through the name of Jesus Christ,

Amen
