Cybersalt News - July 26, 2020

Sunday greetings everyone!

One of the pastors that Cybersalt works with overseas emailed the other day, letting me know his wife and their youngest of 3 children have the flu. While he did not say it was COVID-19, she does work as a nurse in a hospital and it is most likely the pandemic has reached their home. Their country is currently #12 in the world for total cases and in 2019 was #5 in persecuting Christians. In fact, in many parts of their country Christian nurses and doctors are being used on the front lines because other staff who belong to the oppressive national religion do not want to catch COVID-19.

As the West continues to struggle with the pandemic, let's also remember to pray for the vulnerable and persecuted people of the world for whom much misery has been added to their already hard lives..

This Sunday's video is a performance of "Baba Yetu" (Our Father). This song has a very interesting history you can read a: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baba_Yetu

Rev. James Snyder recently experienced a week where it seemed like everything was "shot to pieces." You can read "It Was A Week That Was Shot To Pieces" at:

Needled

military inspectionAt a naval barracks the enlisted men were being given their shots prior to going overseas. One lad, having received his whole series of injections, asked for a glass of water.

"What's the matter, Mate?" asked the sick bay attendant. "Do you feel light-headed?"

"No, just checking to see if I'm still watertight."

Today's Illustration

Church Health

woman surprisedA new Pastor in a small Oklahoma town spent the first four days making personal visits to each of the members, inviting them to come to his first services.

The following Sabbath the church was all but empty.

Accordingly, the Pastor placed a notice in the local newspapers, stating that, because the church was dead, it was everyone's duty to give it a decent Christian burial.

The funeral would be held the following Sabbath afternoon, the notice said.

Morbidly curious, a large crowd turned out for the "funeral." In front of the pulpit, they saw a closed coffin, smothered in flowers. After the Pastor delivered the eulogy, he opened the coffin and invited his congregation to come forward and pay their final respects to their dead church.

Filled with curiosity as to what would represent the corpse of a "dead church," all the people eagerly lined up to look in the coffin. Each "mourner" peeped into the coffin then quickly turned away with a guilty, sheepish look.

In the coffin, tilted at just the right angle was a large mirror.

Featured Illustrations are items well suited for illustrating or inspiring a point in a sermon, speech, or devotional. Funny, moving, or perhaps even graphic, the point of them is the point you make with them.
