The infidels, a motley band, In council met and said,
"The churches are dying throughout the land And soon they'll all be dead." When suddenly a telegram came And caught them with dismay,What did the telegram say? Watch the 1996 sermon of the late Dr. Frank Pollard posted below and find out. Enjoy.
Scripture: Isaiah 54: 1-2 (NIV) “Sing, barren woman, you who never bore a child; burst into song, shout for joy, you who were never in labor; because more are the children of the desolate woman than of her who has a husband,” says the Lord. 2 “Enlarge the place of your tent, stretch your tent curtains wide, do not hold back; lengthen your cords, strengthen your stakes. (KJV) Sing, O barren, thou that didst not bear; break forth into singing, and cry aloud, thou that didst not travail with child: for more are the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife, saith the Lord. 2 Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations: spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes; (1599 Geneva) 1 Rejoice, O [a]barren that didst not bear: break forth into joy and rejoice, thou that didst not travail with child; for the [b]desolate hath more children than the married wife, saith the Lord. 2 [c]Enlarge the place of thy tents, and let them spread out the curtains of thine habitations: spare not: stretch out thy cords, and make fast thy stakes.
Verson on letter from C.C. McCabe to Robert Ingersoll:
The infidels, a motley band,
In council met and said,
"The churches are dying throughout the land
And soon they'll all be dead."
When suddenly a telegram came
And caught them with dismay,
Reading, "All hail the power of Jesus' name,
We're building two a day.
Then the refrain went:
We're building two a day, dear Bob;
We're building two a day!
All hail the power of Jesus' name,
We're building two a day!
