June – July 2008 The House of Jacob Newsletter
Over the years, the word saint hasbecome loosely used. At work Iran across some people, withoutknowledge of The True WORD of
GOD, who, when asked the name of one of theirparty members, responded – this is saint so and so.For some reason I cringed and then began askingvarious questions within myself; do they trulyunderstand what the saints went through, or dothey know the patience and strength that one must haveto truly overcome the cares of this world. While thinkingabout the daily struggles I face, which are seeminglyinsignificant compared to those of times past who truly
worked to serve GOD, I came to the conclusion thatmany people sincerely do not understand what it meansto be called a saint. Just as how angels have beenreduced to little fat babies with wings, likewise, has theessence of what being a saint entails been diminished.
The Passover and Feast ofUnleavened Bread was held in Chicago.Also, the traveling ministry of the House of Jacobwent to Wisconsin, Michigan and Indiana tokeep the days the Lord, which is instructed for usto keep throughout all our generations. All wentwell in all the locations.We had greetings duringthe Lord’s High days come from various parts ofIllinois and as far as Kenya, Africa, where PastorJulius Lenkume emailed us and informed that heand his congregation there were observing theLord’s Passover and Feast of Unleavened Breadalso. They really appreciate the tapes of variousbible lessons that they received too. With theinternet it is a blessing that the Lord’s Word isbeing taught throughout all parts of the world!
The Feast of Pentecost was recentlyobserved on June 15th at the TruckersUnion Hall. (more pictures to come).

POEM
o many religions, denominations and faiths,
Catholic, Baptist, Methodist, too many for goodness sakes;
But there's only one God, one Savior, for those who believe.
So why do we worship God differently, what's the right way?
I'm confused, who should I believe.
Confused and bewildered what more can I say.
Who do I follow, what path do I take.
Decisions… decisions, Lord my salvation is at stake.
All these religions, this world is a mess.
Lord please tell me, is this some kind of test?
Some shed blood in God's name, dear Lord
how can that be?
Others eat swine flesh, an abomination.
God said it not me.
Most worship on Sunday; Saturday is God's Holy Day.
It's written throughout the Bible, the old and the new.
Just take a look at your calendar, God never
changed a thing, it was you.
Let history tell the story, Emperor Constantine
changed God's Holy Day.
Many, many centuries ago, that's a fact, not fiction,
we're still following that man-made tradition.
Excuses… excuses, we make excuses everyday.
So what will you tell God, when you see him
on Judgment Day.
We read the same book, the King James Bible.
God never changed a word.
So why do we follow decades of traditions
based on the precepts of man.
We're all God's children; we should worship him
the same way.
Our instructions should come straight from the Bible,
not the interpretation of man.
The debate goes on, who's right and who's wrong.
You serve God your way; I'll serve him mine.
I hear this all the time.
There's only one kingdom, one power,
one Savior for all.
Which means you can only serve him one way.
That's his way; the Holy Bible, it's the only way.
Follow the Bible not the traditions of man.
It's never too late, that is the pathway to those
pearly white gates.
There's no room for error if you follow the Bible
to the letter.
It's back to basics for me; the Holy Bible is the key.
