2023 marks the 20th Anniversary for
Zion's Lamp. Several Primitive Baptist
publications have ended their efforts in the
past 20 years. As time and technology
change, the future of a printed publication
looks bleak. We've attempted to bridge
the gap by offering an online electronic
version of the quarterly publication and a
convenient Flipbook model that can be
accessed by mobile or tablet as well.
Our prayer is the light provided by Zion's
Lamp might continue until the Lord returns. |

"I have blotted out,
as a thick cloud, thy transgressions, and, as a cloud, thy
sins: return unto me, for I have redeemed thee." (Isaiah
44:22)
Here, this is pointed toward the coming of Christ and his
finished work on the tree of the cross that secured our
salvation. He Says; "I have blotted out thy transgressions,"
"I have blotted out thy sins," "For I have redeemed thee."
By looking at these three statements, they are statements of
fact. This shows us that this was done, this was complete
which brought forth redemption. This also shows us
ownership, and it shows that we have been bought and paid
for by the blood of Jesus Christ. So if our transgressions
and our sins have been blotted out, then it stands to reason
that our sins will not be used against us no more. So if we
return unto him or not, does not change the fact that we
have been redeemed. But Oh the blessings that we have in
Christ as we turn from our wicked ways as we live here in
this time world. |

Son, we all want to be good Momma's and Daddy's,
but just remember: “Kids are people too!” They
like to be encouraged, loved and given presents
just like we do, maybe more, but you are the one
who sets the rules for them: “Expect results,
but remember patience.“

"By the word of the Lord were the heavens made; and all the
host of them by the breath of his mouth. He gathereth the
waters of the sea together as an heap: He layette up the
depth in storehouses. Let all the earth fear the Lord: Let
all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him."
(Psalms 33:6-8)
Does not this sound a lot
better than what we hear and see on television, and what our
children are taught in the school systems, that things just
happen without any order to it? Well, even the first
storehouse was made by the Lord. The word of the Lord, the
breath of his mouth has done all this. "For he spake, and
it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast." (verse
nine) By using scripture this morning explains a lot better
than we can how things, the stars, the planets, the earth,
the heavens, the hills, the mountains, the valleys and even
the Grand Canyon. Most of all, all manner of life.
