Thinking about my dad on this Father's Day. I am thankful that he lead me to the Lord by using the Bible, specifically, Romans 10:9, "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth, the Lord Jesus and believe in thy heart that God raised Jesus from the dead, thou shalt be saved." He also used Ephesians 2:8-9, "For by grace are ye saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; It is the gift of God, not of works, lest any man should boast." I am also thankful that he was an example. His studying, preaching and teaching the Bible caused me to study the Bible, too. I also have taught the Bible in Sunday School, YPWW (Young People's Willing Worker's Class), Mid-week Bible studies and Sunday Worship Services. So I KNOW, as the Bible says in 2 Corinthians 5:8, "We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord." Dad is with the Lord because he accepted Christ as his Savior when he was a teenager.
