Where are we going…

where have we been?

• Ecclesiastes 3:14-15 - “I know that,

whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever: nothing can be

put to it, nor any thing taken from it: and God doeth it,

that men should fear before him. That

which hath been is now; and that which is to be hath already

been; and God requireth that which

is past.”

God has a plan and so does the devil.

The God of the Bible is the God of History.The devil does not want you to identify him in

history.History repeats itself.

Don’t remove the ancient landmark.
