FROM D. JAMES KENNEDY MINISTRIES
THIS IS KENNEDY CLASSICS
♪
WELCOME TO KENNEDY CLASSICS
HELLO, AND HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY.
AND WELCOME TO KENNEDY CLASSICS,
A VIEWER-SUPPORTED PROGRAM.
I'M FRANK WRIGHT, PRESIDENT OF D. JAMES
KENNEDY MINISTRIES, WHERE WE ARE STANDING
FOR TRUTH AND DEFENDING YOUR FREEDOM.
MAKE SURE TO VISIT OUR MINISTRY WEBSITE AT
DJKM.ORG, WHERE YOU CAN FIND A DIVERSE LIBRARY OF
EXCELLENT, BIBLICALLY- BASED RESOURCES.
HOW HIGHLY WE VALUE SOMETHING IS OFTEN A VERY
PERSONAL QUESTION.
YET THE BROADER CULTURE AROUND US ALSO MAKES
POWERFUL STATEMENTS ABOUT PERCEIVED VALUE.
ONE EXAMPLE IS THE WAY PEOPLE DRESS IN DIFFERENT
CULTURAL SETTINGS.
IN MOST CASES PEOPLE WILL DRESS IN THEIR VERY BEST
CLOTHES TO ATTEND AN EVENT THAT THEY HIGHLY VALUE.
WHEN I TOOK MY DARLING DAUGHTER TO THE BALLET,
THOSE IN ATTENDANCE DRESSED IN A MANNER
EXPRESSIVE OF HOW MUCH THEY VALUED
THAT EXPERIENCE.
THE MANNER OF DRESS OBSERVED AT WEDDINGS,
GRADUATIONS, FUNERALS, AND WORSHIP SERVICES GENERALLY
REFLECT THIS AS WELL.
BUT WHAT CAN WE CONCLUDE ABOUT HOW THE BROADER
CULTURE VIEWS MOTHERHOOD?
HISTORICALLY HELD IN THE HIGHEST ESTEEM,
IN OUR DAY MANY CULTURAL CUES AND IN FACT MANY
INFLUENTIAL VOICES POINT TO A SEEMINGLY DIMINISHING
VIEW OF THE IMPORTANCE AND VALUE OF MOTHERS.
WELL, AS DR. KENNEDY REMINDS US THE SECULAR
CULTURE GENERALLY GETS A GREAT MANY THINGS WRONG.
NOWHERE IS THAT MORE TRUE THAN IN THE VIEW OF THE
DIMINISHED VALUE OF MOTHERHOOD.
HERE IS DR. D. JAMES KENNEDY WITH HIS MESSAGE:
THE INFLUENCE OF A GODLY MOTHER.
OUR SCRIPTURE LESSON THIS MORNING IS TAKEN FROM
THE SECOND EPISTLE OF PAUL TO TIMOTHY,
II TIMOTHY CHAPTER 1, BEGINNING WITH VERSE 1.
MAY WE HEAR THE INSPIRED WORD OF THE LIVING GOD.
AND MAY GOD SPEAK TO US TODAY THROUGH HIS HOLY
WORD AND MAY HIS NAME EVER BE PRAISED AMEN.
"AS AMERICAN AS MOTHERHOOD AND APPLE PIE."
WELL, I'M NOT QUITE SURE ABOUT THE STATUS OF APPLE
PIE ANYMORE IN AMERICA, BUT I AM SURE THAT
MOTHERHOOD HAS TAKEN QUITE A BEATING OVER THE LAST
FEW DECADES IN AMERICA.
BETTY FRIEDAN, THE "MOTHER," I ALMOST SAID
FATHER, OF THE RADICAL FEMINIST MOVEMENT, IN HER
FEMINIST BIBLE ENTITLED THE FEMININE MYSTIQUE,
DESCRIBED THE FAMILY AS AN "OPPRESSIVE INSTITUTION.
IT IS A PRISON FOR WOMEN."
PRISON?
SOME OF YOU MEN MIGHT BE THINKING,
"IS THAT WHAT I PAY THOSE MORTGAGE PAYMENTS
EVERY MONTH ON?
IS THAT THE PRISON WHOSE LAWN I MOW?
IS THAT THE PRISON THAT I KEEP FIXED UP?"
YEP THAT'S THE PRISON, FOLKS, BUT IT'S A PRISON
IT'S A TERRIBLE, DREADED, OPPRESSIVE INSTITUTION,
AND IT'S BURYING MILLIONS OF AMERICAN WOMEN ALIVE.
WE MUST GET RID OF THIS TERRIBLE THING CALLED
MOTHERHOOD AND FAMILY AND HOME AND DARE I SAY
THIS WORD IN CHURCH
CHILDREN.
WE MUST GET RID OF THEM, BECAUSE YOU SEE,
IT'S OUT IN THE WORK FORCE IN THE WORLD OF MEN WHERE
THE ACTION IS, WHERE FULFILLMENT IS, WHERE
SATISFACTION IS TO BE FOUND- NOT AT HOME AS A
DRUDGE TAKING CARE OF HOUSE AND FAMILY.
EVERY WOMAN WHO HAS REARED A FAMILY HERE TODAY KNOWS,
INDEED, THAT WOMEN DO WORK, AND THEY WORK VERY HARD,
AND THEY ARE NOT WASTING THEIR LIVES.
THEY ARE GIVING THEM TO PERHAPS THE MOST IMPORTANT
THING THAT THEY COULD POSSIBLY USE THEM FOR-
RAISING GODLY AND FAITHFUL CHILDREN.
WELL, ON THIS MOTHER'S DAY IT MIGHT BE A GOOD TIME
TO CHALLENGE SOME OF THESE ASSUMPTIONS OR
PRESUPPOSITIONS THAT THE FEMINIST RADICALS HAVE
RAISED AGAINST MOTHERHOOD AND AGAINST FAMILY.
BARBARA BUSH, THE FORMER FIRST LADY OF OUR COUNTRY,
WAS INVITED, YOU MAY RECALL BECAUSE IT WAS IN
ALL THE NEWSPAPERS BACK THEN, TO GIVE THE
COMMENCEMENT ADDRESS AT WELLESLEY COLLEGE,
THE COLLEGE FOR THE AVANT GARDE WOMAN WHO IS GOING
TO GO OUT AND MAKE A MARK IN THE WORLD, AND FOR MANY
DECADES THEY HAVE BEEN URGING WOMEN TO GET OUT
OF THE HOUSE AND OUT INTO THE PROFESSIONAL WORLD.
AND SO SEVERAL HUNDRED OF THESE COEDS,
YOU MAY RECALL, WERE INDIGNANT,
AND THEY PROTESTED MARCHING AROUND THE SCHOOL
WITH SIGNS SAYING THAT HOW DARE THEY INVITE SUCH
A WOMAN AS THAT TO SPEAK AS WELLESLEY COLLEGE-
A WOMAN WHO HAS DONE NOTHING BUT STAY HOME
AND REAR A FAMILY.
WELL, OTHER THAN ABIGAIL [ADAMS],
SHE IS THE ONLY WOMAN IN HISTORY THAT WAS MARRIED
TO ONE PRESIDENT AND REARED ANOTHER ONE.
I'D SAY THAT IS FAR FROM DOING NOTHING.
AND IN HER COMMENCEMENT ADDRESS, SHE WAS ALLOWED TO
COME, SHE SAID SOMETHING WORTH REMEMBERING.
SHE SAID, "AT THE END OF YOUR LIFE YOU WILL NEVER
REGRET NOT HAVING PASSED ONE MORE TEST,
NOT WINNING ONE MORE VERDICT,
NOT CLOSING ONE MORE DEAL, BUT YOU WILL REGRET THE
TIME THAT YOU DIDN'T SPEND WITH YOUR HUSBAND,
YOUR CHILDREN, YOUR FRIENDS, YOUR PARENTS."
I THINK THERE IS A GREAT DEAL OF WISDOM IN THAT,
AND UNFORTUNATELY SOME PEOPLE NEVER DISCOVER IT
UNTIL IT IS MUCH TOO LATE, AND THEY'RE GONE AND
THEY CANNOT SPEND TIME WITH THEM ANYMORE.
SHE REALIZED THAT RELATIONSHIPS ARE
THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS.
UNFORTUNATELY TODAY, THE MAJORITY OF MOTHERS ARE
OUT OF THE HOUSE IN THE OFFICES, THE FACTORIES,
THE WORKPLACE, DOING THEIR THING.
NOW, YOU KNOW, THEY GIVE A LOT OF REASONS FOR THAT.
THE MOST COMMON ONE: THEY CAN'T AFFORD TO STAY HOME.
WELL, IT'S INTERESTING THAT 40 YEARS AGO,
MOST ALL OF THEM COULD AFFORD TO STAY HOME.
WHAT HAPPENED?
WELL, HERE IS WHAT HAPPENED.
THE AVERAGE MEDIUM INCOME FAMILY WITH TWO CHILDREN
TODAY PAYS 24% INCOME TAX.
IN 1948 THEY PAID 2%.
DID YOU HEAR THAT "MR. SENATOR TO BE"?
(LAUGH)
AND SO, THE WOMEN HAVE TO LEAVE THEIR CHILDREN
BEHIND, LEAVE THEIR HOME, GET OUT IN THE WORKPLACE
IN ORDER TO HAVE ENOUGH MONEY TO PAY UNCLE SAM.
AND NOW, AS YOU KNOW, FOR SOME TIME THE GOVERNMENT
HAS BEEN TALKING ABOUT ESTABLISHING NATIONAL
CHILDCARE CENTERS AROUND THE NATION.
WELL, NOW, ISN'T THAT INTERESTING.
THEY'RE GONNA SPEND ALL THAT MORE MONEY
ESTABLISHING THESE NATIONAL CHILDCARE CENTERS
TO PROVIDE TOTALLY SECULARIZED HUMANIZED
FEMINIST CARE FOR LITTLE CHILDREN TOTALLY DEVOID OF
ANY VALUES THAT COME FROM THE TRADITION OF AMERICA,
WHEN WHAT THEY COULD REALLY DO.
AND IF THEY DO THAT, THEY ARE JUST PUTTING MORE WOMEN
INTO THE WORKPLACE, GETTING MORE TAXES INTO WASHINGTON.
IF THEY WANTED TO REALLY DO SOMETHING HELPFUL,
THEY COULD CUT THEIR TAXES, ALLOW THE MONEY
TO GO BACK TO THEM.
THEY WOULDN'T NEED THEIR NATIONAL HEALTHCARE CENTERS.
THEY COULD STAY HOME, TAKE CARE OF THEIR CHILDREN.
BUT, OF COURSE, MOST BUREAUCRATS AND
POLITICIANS WOULD RATHER SPEND YOUR MONEY FOR YOU,
FEELING THAT YOU DON'T REALLY KNOW BEST HOW TO
SPEND IT YOURSELF.
WELL, THAT IS SOMETHING THEY COULD DO IF THEY
REALLY WANTED TO HELP OUR FAMILIES.
A RECENT SURVEY DISCOVERED THAT 84% OF WORKING WOMEN
WITH FAMILIES, 84%, SAID THEY'D RATHER STAY HOME,
BUT THEY CAN'T AFFORD TO, THEY SAY.
NOW, LET ME SAY THAT THAT'S NOT THE WHOLE STORY
BY ANY MEANS.
MANY OF THEM COULD THEMSELVES HELP A GREAT
DEAL, IF THEY WEREN'T TRYING TO KEEP UP
WITH THE JONES'.
WELL, I'LL TELL YOU, TO KEEP UP WITH THE JONES'
AND WITH A GREEDY UNCLE, THAT IS A WHOLE LOT FOR
ANY FAMILY TO DO.
AND THEY COULD CUT BACK ON THEIR SPENDING,
THEY COULD CUT BACK ON THEIR LIFESTYLE,
AND THEY COULD SPEND THE TIME WITH THE CHILDREN.
BUT THEY DON'T REALLY THINK IT IS THAT
IMPORTANT, BECAUSE YOU SEE, THERE IS
THIS MATTER OF FULFILLMENT.
WE GET, WE WERE TOLD BY FRIEDAN AND OTHERS,
"OUR FULFILLMENT, LADY, IS OUT IN THE WORKPLACE DOING
MEN'S WORK. MEN HAVE ALL OF THE FUN."
MAYBE YOU DIDN'T KNOW THAT, GUYS,
THAT WE HAVE ALL OF THE FUN JUST GOING OUT THERE
IN THIS EXCITING WORLD AND ENJOYING OURSELVES,
SO THE LADIES WANT TO DO THAT ALSO- FIND FULFILLMENT
FOR THEIR LIVES.
BUT YOU KNOW, AN INTERESTING THING HAPPENS,
HAS BEEN HAPPENING LATELY, AND THAT IS MORE AND MORE
OF THESE FAST-TRACK WOMEN HAVE FOUND THAT THE CLOCK
IS TICKING DOWN ON THEM.
AND THEY ARE RUSHING, MANY OF THEM, BACK TO
THE HOME IN ORDER TO HAVE CHILDREN WHILE
STILL THEY CAN, BECAUSE THEY HAVE DISCOVERED THAT
THERE IS MORE FULFILLMENT IN BOUNCING A LITTLE BABY
ON YOUR KNEE AND TEACHING THAT CHILD VALUES,
THE GREAT TRUTHS OF LIFE, AND WATCHING IT UNFOLD
LIKE A BEAUTIFUL BLOSSOM BEFORE YOU AND TURN INTO
A FINE YOUNG WOMAN OR YOUNG MAN.
AND THAT THAT'S REALLY WHERE THE GREATEST
FULFILLMENT IS TO BE FOUND.
AND YES, INDEED, MOTHERHOOD AND MARRIAGE
ARE MAKING A COMEBACK IN OUR NATION TODAY,
AND I THINK THAT IS EXCITING.
AND ANOTHER REASON FOR THAT IS THAT PEOPLE ARE
BEGINNING TO LEARN A LOT OF THINGS THAT THEY DIDN'T
KNOW BEFORE THAT ARE NOT PART OF THE SIREN SONG OF
THE RADICAL FEMINISTS: THEY ARE LEARNING,
FOR EXAMPLE, MARRIED WOMEN LIVE LONGER.
MORTALITY RATES ARE 50% LOWER THAN THOSE FOR
UNMARRIED WOMEN.
AND EVEN THE HEALTH BENEFITS OF MARRIAGE
CARRY OVER PAST THE DEATH OF YOUR SPOUSE.
MARRIED WOMEN ARE HEALTHIER.
THEY ARE 30% MORE LIKELY TO RATE THEIR HEALTH AS
VERY GOOD OR EXCELLENT.
MARRIED WOMEN ARE MORE LIKELY TO SURVIVE CANCER
THAN UNMARRIED WOMEN.
THEY DEMONSTRATE BETTER MENTAL HEALTH THAN OTHER
PERSONS, AND MARRIED WOMEN ARE WEALTHIER.
IN FACT, WE HAVE A WHOLE NEW SOCIAL CLASS IN
AMERICA IN RECENT DECADES.
IT'S CALLED THE SINGLE MOTHER,
THE POOR SINGLE MOTHER, ONE OF THE LOWEST ECONOMIC
CLASSES IN AMERICA.
THEY ARE SAFER AS WELL.
THERE IS MUCH LESS DOMESTIC VIOLENCE IN
MARRIED HOMES THAN HOMES WHERE A MAN IS LIVING
WITH A WOMAN.
AND NOT ONLY THAT, BUT STUDIES BETWEEN MARRIED
WOMEN AND SEXUALLY ACTIVE UNMARRIED WOMEN.
THAT'S AN INTERESTING PHRASE- SEXUALLY ACTIVE
UNMARRIED WOMEN.
YOU KNOW WHAT WE USED TO CALL THAT?
FORNICATION.
DO YOU KNOW THAT MANY YOUNG PEOPLE TODAY
DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT THAT WORD MEANS?
THEY OUGHT TO LEARN, BECAUSE THE BIBLE SAYS
"NEITHER ADULTERERS NOR FORNICATORS NOR
HOMOSEXUALS HAVE ANY INHERITANCE IN THE
KINGDOM OF GOD." (I CORINTHIANS 6:9)
BUT IN STUDIES BETWEEN THOSE TWO GROUPS ABOUT
WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT THEMSELVES, THE MARRIED
WOMEN SAY THAT THEIR SEXUAL LIVES ARE BETTER
THAN THE SEXUALLY ACTIVE SINGLE WOMEN,
IN SPITE OF EVERY ROMANTIC FILM THAT HOLLYWOOD EVER
PUT OUT ALMOST, WHICH GLORIFIES UNMARRIED SEX.
NO.
MARRIAGE AND MOTHERHOOD ARE NOT NEARLY AS BAD
AS SOME PEOPLE SAY.
WELL, THEY WANT TO ACCOMPLISH SOMETHING IN
THEIR LIFE, THEY SAY.
THOMAS EDISON ACCOMPLISHED AN ENORMOUS AMOUNT IN HIS
LIFE, AND HE SAID, "I DID NOT HAVE MY MOTHER VERY
LONG, BUT SHE CAST OVER ME AN INFLUENCE THAT LASTED
ALL OF MY LIFE.
THE GOOD EFFECTS OF MY EARLY TRAINING I CAN
NEVER LOSE.
I WAS A CARELESS BOY, AND WITH A MOTHER OF A
DIFFERENT MENTAL CALIBER, I SHOULD HAVE TURNED OUT
BADLY, BUT HER FIRMNESS, HER GOODNESS WERE POTENT
POWERS TO KEEP ME IN THE RIGHT PATH.
MY MOTHER WAS THE MAKING OF ME."
THAT'S QUITE AN ACCOMPLISHMENT,
I WOULD THINK.
CHARLES SPURGEON, A GREAT PREACHER OF ENGLAND, SAID,
"I CANNOT TELL HOW MUCH I OWE TO THE SOLEMN WORDS
AND PRAYERS OF A GOODLY MOTHER."
HENRY WARD BEECHER, THE AMERICAN PULPITEER SAID,
"THE MEMORY OF MY SAINTED MOTHER IS THE BRIGHTEST
REFLECTION OF MY EARLY YEARS."
AND THESE QUOTES COULD BE REPEATED ALMOST ENDLESSLY.
"YES, BUT," SAYS THE FEMINISTS,
"THEY DON'T MAKE STATUES OF MOTHERS."
OH?
WELL, I THINK OF ONE MAN WHO GOT HIS MOTHER TO
STAND FOR A STATUE HE WAS MAKING.
HE WORKED ON IT FOR A LONG TIME AND FAITHFULLY
SHE STOOD THERE.
SHE WAS HIS MODEL WOMAN, THE IDEAL WOMAN.
SHE WAS HIS MOTHER, AND YOU'VE ALL SEEN
HIS STATUE, I WOULD IMAGINE.
WE CALL IT THE STATUE OF LIBERTY.
MARY PRIDE, REMEMBER THAT NAME?
SHE WAS PART OF THE MOST RADICAL ASPECT OF THE
FEMINIST MOVEMENT.
AN INTERESTING LADY, SHE WAS AN "INSIDER'S INSIDER"
IN THE FEMINIST GROUPS, SHE KNEW ALL OF THE
LEADERS, WAS PART OF IT, PROMOTED IT.
AND SHE SAYS THAT THERE'S ONE ASPECT OF FEMINISM
THAT MOST PEOPLE DON'T KNOW ABOUT.
MOST OUTSIDERS DON'T REALLY UNDERSTAND ACTUALLY
WHAT IT'S REALLY ALL ABOUT.
IT IS ACTUALLY A RELIGION AT ITS HEART.
SHE SAID THAT FOR YEARS THE HUMANISTS HAVE BEEN
SAYING THAT "MAN IS THE MEASURE OF ALL THINGS."
YOU WILL RECALL THEY TAKE THAT FROM A
PRE-SOCRATIC PHILOSOPHER PROTAGORAS WHO MADE THE
SIMPLE STATEMENT "MAN IS THE MEASURE OF ALL THINGS."
IT SEEMED PERFECTLY HARMLESS UNTIL MODERN
ATHEISTS GOT HOLD OF IT.
CHRISTIANS HAVE ALWAYS BELIEVED THAT GOD IS THE
MEASURE OF ALL THINGS.
GOD TELLS US WHAT IS GOOD AND WHAT IS NOT GOOD,
WHAT IS SIN AND WHAT IS MORAL,
WHAT IS RIGHT AND WHAT IS WRONG,
BUT NOT SO SAY THE HUMANIST.
MAN IS THE MEASURE OF ALL THINGS AND HE WILL
DECIDE GOOD AND EVIL, RIGHT AND WRONG, AND
HE HAS DECIDED THAT GOD WILL BE PUT DOWN.
WELL ALONG COME THE FEMINISTS AND WHAT THEY
DECLARE SAYS MARY PRIDE, AN INSIDER OF THE FEMINIST
MOVEMENT, WHAT THEY HAVE DECLARED IS SIMPLY HUMANISM
ON THE HALF-SHELL, INTERESTING PHRASE,
HUMANISM ON THE HALF-SHELL THEIR CRY IS THAT WOMAN IS
THE MEASURE OF ALL THINGS.
IN FACT, THAT WOMAN IS DEITY.
IN THE METHODIST CHURCH, FOR EXAMPLE,
THERE IS A GROUP WITHIN THAT DENOMINATION WHO ARE
ENGAGED IN THE WORSHIP OF THE FATHER, SON,
THE HOLY SPIRIT, NO.
OF ST. SOPHIA, ONE OF THE ANCIENT GODDESSES.
SO WE HAVE A RETURN THROUGH RADICAL FEMINIST
PREACHERS OF ANCIENT GODDESS WORSHIP RIGHT HERE
IN THE MIDST OF CHRISTIANITY.
THEY ARE AT WAR SAID ANOTHER FEMINIST WITH
JESUS CHRIST, THE SON, AND WITH JEHOVAH, THE FATHER,
AND THEY'RE DOING THEIR BEST TO GET RID OF THEM AS
THE CAUSE OF ALL WOMEN'S TROUBLES BECAUSE OF THIS
MALE ORIENTED CONCEPT OF LIFE.
WELL THIS FALSE VIEW OF WOMAN AND WITH SOME A
FALSE VIEW OF GOD, HAVE CREATED A LOT OF PROBLEMS
IN OUR SOCIETY TODAY.
DEAR FRIENDS, UNBELIEVERS COME ALONG AND WE LISTEN TO THEM.
WE LISTENED TO MARX ABOUT HOW TO HAVE OUR
GOVERNMENTS AND OUR FINANCES.
DISASTER FOLLOWED.
WE LISTENED TO FREUD IN HOW WE SHOULD HAVE OUR
SEX LIVES AND OTHER PSYCHOLOGICAL THINGS,
AND FURTHER DISASTER CAME.
ALONG CAME MR. SPOCK, WHO TOLD US HOW TO REAR OUR
CHILDREN WITHOUT DISCIPLINE, AND WE REARED THE MOST
DISOBEDIENT REBELLIOUS GENERATION IN HISTORY.
AND ON IT GOES.
BUT GOD WAS RIGHT IN EVERY CASE.
WHEN WILL WE WAKE UP AND LISTEN TO WHAT GOD HAS TO SAY?
LADIES, YOU HAVE A SPECIAL, SPECIAL PRIVILEGE
OF BEING PART OF THE MOST IMPORTANT THING THAT
ANY HUMAN BEING CAN DO- BRINGING INTO EXISTENCE,
CREATING ANOTHER HUMAN BEING, AND FURTHER
MOLDING AND TRAINING THAT PERSON TO BE
A GODLY BOY OR GIRL, MAN OR WOMAN,
WHO CAN MAKE A GREAT CONTRIBUTION TO OUR WORLD.
THINK A MINUTE.
IF ONE GENERATION ADOPTED THE VIEWS OF THE SECULAR
RADICAL FEMINISTS OF BETTY FRIEDAN- ONE GENERATION-
THE HUMAN RACE WOULD BE EXTINCT.
MAY WE PRAY.
FATHER IN HEAVEN, HELP US TO REALIZE THAT THY WORD
IS TRUTH, AND THAT THOU ART A GOD OF GREAT GRACE
AND MERCY AND GOODNESS, AND THOU DESIREST FOR US
THAT WHICH IS BEST.
HELP US TO NOT LISTEN TO THE SIREN SONGS OF
UNBELIEVING SINNERS AND FOLLOW THEM INTO
DESTRUCTION AND MISERY.
BLESS THIS NATION.
BLESS ALL OF OUR MOTHERS.
MAY WE RAISE A GODLY COUNTRY RESTORED TO
YOUR GRACE.
FOR CHRIST'S SAKE.
AMEN.
GOD BLESS YOU IF YOU ARE A GODLY MOTHER- RAISING YOUR
CHILDREN UP IN THE NURTURE AND ADMONITION OF THE LORD.
PERHAPS YOU ARE WATCHING THIS PROGRAM TODAY AND YOU
WANT TO BE A "GODLY MOTHER" BUT YOU DON'T KNOW
JESUS CHRIST AS YOUR SAVIOR AND LORD.
YOU CAN.
THIS MOTHER'S DAY, YOU CAN RECEIVE THE GREATEST GIFT
EVER GIVEN BY THE GREATEST PERSON WHO EVER LIVED.
IT'S THE GIFT OF ETERNAL LIFE AND IT COMES FROM
JESUS CHRIST.
I URGE YOU TO TURN YOUR LIFE OVER TO HIM TODAY.
THE WAY WE DO THAT IS BY REALIZING THAT WE HAVE
FALLEN SHORT OF GOD'S STANDARD OF PERFECTION
AND WE ARE SINNERS.
ONLY JESUS CHRIST LIVED THE PERFECT LIFE AND
COULD, THEREFORE, PAY FOR OUR SINS WITH HIS DEATH ON
THE CROSS.
IF YOU ARE READY TO REPENT OF YOUR SINS AND CALL UPON
THE LORD JESUS CHRIST TO SAVE YOU, WE CAN GO TO HIM
IN PRAYER RIGHT NOW, SAYING, "LORD, JESUS CHRIST,
I KNOW THAT I'M A SINNER AND ASK YOU
TO FORGIVE ME FOR MY SINS.
PLEASE, CLEANSE ME AND MAKE ME BRAND NEW.
GIVE ME NEW AND RIGHT DESIRES THAT I MAY FOLLOW
YOUR WILL FOR MY LIFE FROM THIS DAY FORWARD.
IN YOUR NAME I PRAY, AMEN."
IF YOU JUST PRAYED THAT PRAYER,
LET ME BE THE FIRST TO WELCOME YOU TO THE
FAMILY OF GOD.
IT'S A BIG ONE AND NOW YOU HAVE BROTHERS AND
SISTERS, IN CHRIST, ALL OVER THE WORLD.
TO HELP YOU BETTER UNDERSTAND THE DECISION
THAT YOU'VE MADE TODAY, WE WANT TO SEND YOU
DR. KENNEDY'S BOOK, WRITTEN FOR NEW BELIEVERS,
CALLED BEGINNING AGAIN.

IMPORTANCE OF GODLY MOTHERS.
