God has gifted him as an excellent preacher of the Word, a
skilled musician as a singer and instrumentalist, and a creative chalk artist.

People of all ages will be touched by brother Haynes’ presentation of the good news of Jesus Christ!

By mans muddy standards
We see God’s righteous law
If you’ve broken one commandment
You have broken them all
Have you ever told a lie?
Well, a white one…just to get me by.
Have you ever stolen
or looked at another with lust?
Or used God’s name as a cuss word to express disgust?
What if you leave here today and die in a natural or unusual way?
When you meet God face to face
How will you finish the race?
When you are judged by the 10 commandments
God’s righteous law
Can you claim innocence in light of them all?
In that day will you deserve heaven or hell?
The choice is yours today so please hear me well
Jesus Christ was born of a virgin
All God, all man and a person
He came to earth to die for you and me
His love so endured they nailed him to a tree
They mocked him and scourned and spit in his face
In spite of our hate He is God’s loving grace
For the bible says “There are none righteous no not one”
Except Jesus, God’s precious son
Repent, turn from your sins while you still have time
With your free will, seek the divine
But wait…MY God won’t send me to hell
But if someone raped and murdered your mother wouldn’t a fair judge see them punished?
God is perfect, just and must punish our sins
This is why you should trust ONLY in Him
Being a good person will not get you there
But what about good works, will that pay my fare?
Bhudda, Allah, Hindu or Wiccan
All lead down a path that is terribly stricken
Clever lies, silently lead to Hell’s all consuming fire
Repent and have faith in Jesus today
Tell Him you’re sorry
Please pray to Him today
He will cleanse you and wash your sins away
His gentle grace will dust you off
As a child of God you will live as you ought
Please heed my cries as I speak today
I long to you see you at heaven’s gate
God placed me before you for a reason
Maybe it’s the end of your life’s season
For God so loved the world he gave his only begotten son that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
Please I implore choose life forever more!

One is a tow dolly. We can’t go if we can’t tow our car because we have to be able to get around to churches and to go out and evangelize.

The other is a $1000 fee that we have to pay to the IRS to become a non profit.

Please pray for us! God will have to step up and do His thing:-)

I wrote a 3 page poem last night that I used today on the box. The police were called again but it was all good! As always we had a friendly conversations with them. We open aired in the Baltimore Harbor and then Arica and I went back to put money in the meter and we witnessed to a heroin addict and it was really sad. All around he was a good kid but lost his dad, girlfriend and mom was a druggie. We spent about 30 minutes talking to him but he was high so I don’t know what actually got.

Then on the way out we ran into another homeless guy who was a gang member. I don’t know how to explain it other than to say I think he was possessed with demons. It wasn’t like what you think of in the movies but when we were talking to him he would look at me and talk and his eyes were nice and then a second later it was like from his eyes they were evil and he could turn on us at any moment. His eyes were also flipping back. I have never seen anything like it! It’s hard to explain what I saw in his eyes but it was plain as day. I don’t know what he was on but I have seen people high and on lots of stuff but have never seen that. It was definitely spiritual warfare. He also knew alot of scripture. Dee and Glenn and I were talking about that tonight and it’s like he could have actually had a religious background but I know that Satan knows scripture too so I don’t know.

We write this on the blog because there is a spiritual battle going on out there. All you have to do is step out in faith to share the gospel and you will see it so clearly.

Pray for Danny- the drug addict who kind of made sense and wants to be clean

Pray for Allen- the gang member who was engaged in internal spiritual warfare
