Luke 15:25-32 KJB: 25   Now his elder son was in the field: and as he came and drew nigh to the house, he heard musick and dancing.
26   And he called one of the servants, and asked what these things meant.
27   And he said unto him, Thy brother is come; and thy father hath killed the fatted calf, because he hath received him safe and sound.
28   And he was angry, and would not go in: therefore came his father out, and intreated him.
29   And he answering said to his father, Lo, these many years do I serve thee, neither transgressed I at any time thy commandment: and yet thou never gavest me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends:
30   But as soon as this thy son was come, which hath devoured thy living with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf.
31   And he said unto him, Son, thou art ever with me, and all that I have is thine.
32   It was meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.

Jude 1:3 KJB: 3   Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.

Acts 15:1-6 KJB: 1   And certain men which came down from Judaea taught the brethren, and said, Except ye be circumcised after the manner of Moses, ye cannot be saved.
2   When therefore Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and disputation with them, they determined that Paul and Barnabas, and certain other of them, should go up to Jerusalem unto the apostles and elders about this question.
3   And being brought on their way by the church, they passed through Phenice and Samaria, declaring the conversion of the Gentiles: and they caused great joy unto all the brethren.
4   And when they were come to Jerusalem, they were received of the church, and of the apostles and elders, and they declared all things that God had done with them.
5   But there rose up certain of the sect of the Pharisees which believed, saying, That it was needful to circumcise them, and to command them to keep the law of Moses.
6   And the apostles and elders came together for to consider of this matter.

2 Samuel 11:26-27 KJB: 26   And when the wife of Uriah heard that Uriah her husband was dead, she mourned for her husband.
27   And when the mourning was past, David sent and fetched her to his house, and she became his wife, and bare him a son. But the thing that David had done displeased the LORD.

Evangelist Steve Goolesby, out of the Bible Baptist Church, Rossville, GA, preaches during the July, 2025 Camp Meeting, held at the Faith Baptist Camp, of Resaca, GA.
Exodus 17 KJB: 1   And all the congregation of the children of Israel journeyed from the wilderness of Sin, after their journeys, according to the commandment of the LORD, and pitched in Rephidim: and there was no water for the people to drink.
2   Wherefore the people did chide with Moses, and said, Give us water that we may drink. And Moses said unto them, Why chide ye with me? wherefore do ye tempt the LORD?
3   And the people thirsted there for water; and the people murmured against Moses, and said, Wherefore is this that thou hast brought us up out of Egypt, to kill us and our children and our cattle with thirst?
4   And Moses cried unto the LORD, saying, What shall I do unto this people? they be almost ready to stone me.
5   And the LORD said unto Moses, Go on before the people, and take with thee of the elders of Israel; and thy rod, wherewith thou smotest the river, take in thine hand, and go.
6   Behold, I will stand before thee there upon the rock in Horeb; and thou shalt smite the rock, and there shall come water out of it, that the people may drink. And Moses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel.
7   And he called the name of the place Massah, and Meribah, because of the chiding of the children of Israel, and because they tempted the LORD, saying, Is the LORD among us, or not?
8   Then came Amalek, and fought with Israel in Rephidim.
9   And Moses said unto Joshua, Choose us out men, and go out, fight with Amalek: to morrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the rod of God in mine hand.
10   So Joshua did as Moses had said to him, and fought with Amalek: and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill.
11   And it came to pass, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed: and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed.
12   But Moses hands were heavy; and they took a stone, and put it under him, and he sat thereon; and Aaron and Hur stayed up his hands, the one on the one side, and the other on the other side; and his hands were steady until the going down of the sun.
13   And Joshua discomfited Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.
14   And the LORD said unto Moses, Write this for a memorial in a book, and rehearse it in the ears of Joshua: for I will utterly put out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven.
15   And Moses built an altar, and called the name of it Jehovahnissi:
16   For he said, Because the LORD hath sworn that the LORD will have war with Amalek from generation to generation.

Pastor Mike Qualls, of the Lakeland Baptist Church, Lakeland, GA, preaches during the July, 2025 Camp Meeting, held at the Faith Baptist Camp, of Resaca, GA.
Acts 21:37-22:28 KJB: 37   And as Paul was to be led into the castle, he said unto the chief captain, May I speak unto thee? Who said, Canst thou speak Greek?
38   Art not thou that Egyptian, which before these days madest an uproar, and leddest out into the wilderness four thousand men that were murderers?
39   But Paul said, I am a man which am a Jew of Tarsus, a city in Cilicia, a citizen of no mean city: and, I beseech thee, suffer me to speak unto the people.
40   And when he had given him licence, Paul stood on the stairs, and beckoned with the hand unto the people. And when there was made a great silence, he spake unto them in the Hebrew tongue, saying,
1   Men, brethren, and fathers, hear ye my defence which I make now unto you.
2   (And when they heard that he spake in the Hebrew tongue to them, they kept the more silence: and he saith,)
3   I am verily a man which am a Jew, born in Tarsus, a city in Cilicia, yet brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, and taught according to the perfect manner of the law of the fathers, and was zealous toward God, as ye all are this day.
4   And I persecuted this way unto the death, binding and delivering into prisons both men and women.
5   As also the high priest doth bear me witness, and all the estate of the elders: from whom also I received letters unto the brethren, and went to Damascus, to bring them which were there bound unto Jerusalem, for to be punished.
6   And it came to pass, that, as I made my journey, and was come nigh unto Damascus about noon, suddenly there shone from heaven a great light round about me.
7   And I fell unto the ground, and heard a voice saying unto me, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?
8   And I answered, Who art thou, Lord? And he said unto me, I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom thou persecutest.
9   And they that were with me saw indeed the light, and were afraid; but they heard not the voice of him that spake to me.
10   And I said, What shall I do, LORD? And the Lord said unto me, Arise, and go into Damascus; and there it shall be told thee of all things which are appointed for thee to do.
11   And when I could not see for the glory of that light, being led by the hand of them that were with me, I came into Damascus.
12   And one Ananias, a devout man according to the law, having a good report of all the Jews which dwelt there,
13   Came unto me, and stood, and said unto me, Brother Saul, receive thy sight. And the same hour I looked up upon him.
14   And he said, The God of our fathers hath chosen thee, that thou shouldest know his will, and see that Just One, and shouldest hear the voice of his mouth.
15   For thou shalt be his witness unto all men of what thou hast seen and heard.
16   And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord.
17   And it came to pass, that, when I was come again to Jerusalem, even while I prayed in the temple, I was in a trance;
18   And saw him saying unto me, Make haste, and get thee quickly out of Jerusalem: for they will not receive thy testimony concerning me.
19   And I said, Lord, they know that I imprisoned and beat in every synagogue them that believed on thee:
20   And when the blood of thy martyr Stephen was shed, I also was standing by, and consenting unto his death, and kept the raiment of them that slew him.
21   And he said unto me, Depart: for I will send thee far hence unto the Gentiles.
22   And they gave him audience unto this word, and then lifted up their voices, and said, Away with such a fellow from the earth: for it is not fit that he should live.
23   And as they cried out, and cast off their clothes, and threw dust into the air,
24   The chief captain commanded him to be brought into the castle, and bade that he should be examined by scourging; that he might know wherefore they cried so against him.
25   And as they bound him with thongs, Paul said unto the centurion that stood by, Is it lawful for you to scourge a man that is a Roman, and uncondemned?
26   When the centurion heard that, he went and told the chief captain, saying, Take heed what thou doest: for this man is a Roman.
27   Then the chief captain came, and said unto him, Tell me, art thou a Roman? He said, Yea.
28   And the chief captain answered, With a great sum obtained I this freedom. And Paul said, But I was free born.

2 Kings 22:2 KJB: 2   And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, and walked in all the way of David his father, and turned not aside to the right hand or to the left.

1 Thessalonians 5:11-28 KJB: 11   Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.
12   And we beseech you, brethren, to know them which labour among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you;
13   And to esteem them very highly in love for their work's sake. And be at peace among yourselves.
14   Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men.
15   See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men.
16   Rejoice evermore.
17   Pray without ceasing.
18   In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
19   Quench not the Spirit.
20   Despise not prophesyings.
21   Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.
22   Abstain from all appearance of evil.
23   And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
24   Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it.
25   Brethren, pray for us.
26   Greet all the brethren with an holy kiss.
27   I charge you by the Lord that this epistle be read unto all the holy brethren.
28   The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.

Evangelist Dr. James Jones, out of the Harriman Baptist Tabernacle, Harriman, TN, preaches during the July, 2025 Camp Meeting, held at the Faith Baptist Camp, of Resaca, GA.
Exodus 32:1-28 KJB: 1   And when the people saw that Moses delayed to come down out of the mount, the people gathered themselves together unto Aaron, and said unto him, Up, make us gods, which shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him.
2   And Aaron said unto them, Break off the golden earrings, which are in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring them unto me.
3   And all the people brake off the golden earrings which were in their ears, and brought them unto Aaron.
4   And he received them at their hand, and fashioned it with a graving tool, after he had made it a molten calf: and they said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.
5   And when Aaron saw it, he built an altar before it; and Aaron made proclamation, and said, To morrow is a feast to the LORD.
6   And they rose up early on the morrow, and offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.
7   And the LORD said unto Moses, Go, get thee down; for thy people, which thou broughtest out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted themselves:
8   They have turned aside quickly out of the way which I commanded them: they have made them a molten calf, and have worshipped it, and have sacrificed thereunto, and said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which have brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.
9   And the LORD said unto Moses, I have seen this people, and, behold, it is a stiffnecked people:
10   Now therefore let me alone, that my wrath may wax hot against them, and that I may consume them: and I will make of thee a great nation.
11   And Moses besought the LORD his God, and said, LORD, why doth thy wrath wax hot against thy people, which thou hast brought forth out of the land of Egypt with great power, and with a mighty hand?
12   Wherefore should the Egyptians speak, and say, For mischief did he bring them out, to slay them in the mountains, and to consume them from the face of the earth? Turn from thy fierce wrath, and repent of this evil against thy people.
13   Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, thy servants, to whom thou swarest by thine own self, and saidst unto them, I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have spoken of will I give unto your seed, and they shall inherit it for ever.
14   And the LORD repented of the evil which he thought to do unto his people.
15   And Moses turned, and went down from the mount, and the two tables of the testimony were in his hand: the tables were written on both their sides; on the one side and on the other were they written.
16   And the tables were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God, graven upon the tables.
17   And when Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he said unto Moses, There is a noise of war in the camp.
18   And he said, It is not the voice of them that shout for mastery, neither is it the voice of them that cry for being overcome: but the noise of them that sing do I hear.
19   And it came to pass, as soon as he came nigh unto the camp, that he saw the calf, and the dancing: and Moses' anger waxed hot, and he cast the tables out of his hands, and brake them beneath the mount.
20   And he took the calf which they had made, and burnt it in the fire, and ground it to powder, and strawed it upon the water, and made the children of Israel drink of it.
21   And Moses said unto Aaron, What did this people unto thee, that thou hast brought so great a sin upon them?
22   And Aaron said, Let not the anger of my lord wax hot: thou knowest the people, that they are set on mischief.
23   For they said unto me, Make us gods, which shall go before us: for as for this Moses, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him.
24   And I said unto them, Whosoever hath any gold, let them break it off. So they gave it me: then I cast it into the fire, and there came out this calf.
25   And when Moses saw that the people were naked; (for Aaron had made them naked unto their shame among their enemies:)
26   Then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, Who is on the LORD's side? let him come unto me. And all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together unto him.
27   And he said unto them, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Put every man his sword by his side, and go in and out from gate to gate throughout the camp, and slay every man his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his neighbour.
28   And the children of Levi did according to the word of Moses: and there fell of the people that day about three thousand men.

Luke 17:11-19 KJB: 11   And it came to pass, as he went to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee.
12   And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar off:
13   And they lifted up their voices, and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.
14   And when he saw them, he said unto them, Go shew yourselves unto the priests. And it came to pass, that, as they went, they were cleansed.
15   And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a loud voice glorified God,
16   And fell down on his face at his feet, giving him thanks: and he was a Samaritan.
17   And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine?
18   There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger.
19   And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole.
