Summary: . We stand here this morning freely to worship because of the youth of this nation. The young men and women who have labored in our military to keep this nation, and many nations free to worship God, our creator.

Read II Tim. 2:1-5 and I Tim. 1:8-16

This morning’s message is directed towards the youth but with a simple message to celebrate Labor Day. We stand here this morning freely to worship because of the youth of this nation. The young men and women who have labored in our military to keep this nation, and many nations free to worship God, our creator. Even as we speak our young men and women are in Iraq and Afghanistan, setting up a form of government that will allow freedom of religion. Their labor in Iraq and Afghanistan is a hardship worth enduring to give hope to those who wish to worship the one and only true God of the Universe. Aman! (I Tim. 2:3-4…God, who desires all men to be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth.)
