Working with Heritage Baptist in NYC

From Christine, leader of our NYC outreach:

"And Moses said unto the people, Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which he will shew to you to day: for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to day, ye shall see them again no more for ever.The LORD shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace."~ Exodus 14:13-14

Isn't it awesome to know we have God fighting for us? The pastor [at Heritage Baptist] said that even if there was only one true believer left in NYC amongst a city of unbelievers (he brought this up because of a campaign the atheists just started in the subways and buses that state "Over 1 mil NY'ers are good without God"), God STILL wins. AMEN!!!

He's a really good speaker and very passionate...[Pastor Recker] mentioned the table ministry twice this a.m. during the service and spoke out about the danger of contemplative prayer entering into the church as well as Christians needing to be held accountable for their sins. If you want to take a look at Heritage's website, here is a link: http://www.hbcnyc.org/. He also has a few of his sermons posted if you want to listen at any time.
