They are more interested in using the Constitution as a fluid document that may be interpreted differently to each succeeding generation.-Our church is not the same as it was when it was founded.We have had now three different pastors, each with their own unique personality and goals for the work of the ministry. Who knows how many people have come and gone through these doors over those years? And while we can be thankful for what the Lord has done in the past, we must look forward to new things or else die.-Our families are not the same as they once wereCertainly, mine is not. Those things that used to be the most important things in life to me are slowly slipping out of my hands.

A little boy we met when only 4 years old, will leave for combat in Iraq in only one week.And times had changed for Israel too. They had entered Egypt just about 400 years previous, being only 70 souls strong. They were such a small number of people and so insignificant, that the Pharaoh had basically allowed them to live wherever they chose. Besides that, one of their own, Joseph, had gone into Egypt a slave and had so been blessed of God that he "worked his way" to being second in command of Egypt.
