What if those shots that were fired would have hit more than one car????? Thankful that a State Police Officer was Johnny on the spot! GLORY!
New Mexico needs a law and order governor! Albuquerque needs a law and order mayor! New Mexico needs JESUS! With so many Churches and other ministries here in Albuquerque, you would think things would not be this bad, its hell on earth here. Then again, what would it be like without the Churches and the many ministries?

It is dangerous to even drive in this God awful city. Paso is close to our house and it is a raceway for crazy drivers. Now gun fire! I am more than sick and tired of the evil here. We would move, but GOD says stay. We will stay until God says to move the ministry.
Sharon and I minister on the streets and byways here almost everyday. We attempt to build bridges of love and trust with all! I worry about the safety of my Sharon and our adult children.
I remember what a Pastors wife posted on Facebook after they had moved out of Albuquerque, this was more than a few years ago. Someone had posted how New Mexico is a very violent, so much evil, no progress in Christian values, just not a Christian state. She replied that they had worked hard as a ministry, trying to help turn this state around to JESUS! She stated that New Mexico is a tough place for ministry. Yes it is, very evil here, killing babies all the time through abortion. The people here reelected a pro-abortion governor! NM Governor hotline for abortions.
There is division in the Church here. I SEE IT! Life means little to many here. But yet, there is a Church on every street corner, but……….there is a pot shop on every street corner, and you can by booze on every street corner or order your booze by phone for home delivery!
New Mexico loves to invite disasters. New Mexico Last in almost anything good. One news outlet in Albuquerque was making a big deal out of a brewery expanding its business the other day. Really, that was their top story! That is the mind set of many here. Booze! New Mexico is third in drunk driving deaths, not many care about that I guess. NM Ranks Third in Drunk Driving Deaths
So many harden hearts here! I tell my friends that evangelism is not for the weak. To many here in New Mexico and all over America work for the do little-sit more-Church.
Many pray here but never repent and change their behavior. What does the Bible say about repentance?

Our world is broken. All around us, we see heartache, despair, and pain.
The needs of our world can be overwhelming and often it can be a struggle to knowing what we should do.
The one thing we can do is pray. Prayer is powerful. Chris Rappazini writes in the Today in the Word devotional, “Even though it may take years to see an answer, you can be assured that your prayers are being heard.” God hears your prayers; and it is important that you pray. But where do you start? Here are a few prayers to help you begin. Prayers For a Broken World
Just 4% of Americans have a Biblical Worldview. Just 37% of Pastors in America have a Biblical Worldview! Do you not see the destruction of our country? The downfall of the Christian Church? Does your Pastor ever teach on the Ten Commandments? Basic Christianity? Does your Church carry out The Great Commission? How many baptisims has your Church officiated in the last 2 years? Is your Church ‘raising up’ mature Christians?
“People die every day without Christ, and we’ve got the answer. … Don’t just talk about evangelism. Do it.”
–Dr. Stephen McQuoid
America needs JESUS! Are you carrying out the Great Commission daily in your community? Or do you work for the sit-more-do-little church? 3 Things You Can Do Today to Carry Out the Great Commission
Don’t just “play church.” Take action.
“So I tell you this, and insist on it in the Lord, that you must no longer live as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their thinking. They are darkened in their understanding and separated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardening of their hearts” Eph 4: 17, 18.
The Scriptures call the mind of the natural man “blinded” 2 Cor. 4:4, “depraved” Romans 1:28, “corrupt” 1 Tim. 6:5, and “unspiritual” Col. 2:18. The natural mind thinks from a humanistic, sin-debased viewpoint. The viewpoint of the flesh directs its thoughts. The sinful mind is under the control of Satan and can never please God because it concentrates on things of the world and not things of the Spirit. The natural mind walks the road of hopelessness and self-destruction.
The following is from Focus on the Family:
A Biblical Worldview is based on the infallible Word of God. When you believe the Bible is entirely true, then you allow it to be the foundation of everything you say and do. That means, for instance, you take seriously the mandate in Romans 13 to honor the governing authorities by researching the candidates and issues, making voting a priority.
Do you have a biblical worldview? Answer the following questions, based on claims found in the Bible and which George Barna used in his survey:
- Do absolute moral truths exist?
- Is absolute truth defined by the Bible?
- Did Jesus Christ live a sinless life?
- Is God the all-powerful and all-knowing Creator of the universe, and does He still rule it today?
- Is salvation a gift from God that cannot be earned?
- Is Satan real?
- Does a Christian have a responsibility to share his or her faith in Christ with other people?
- Is the Bible accurate in all of its teachings?
Did you answer yes to these? Only 9 percent of “born- again” believers did. But what’s more important than your yes to these questions is whether your life shows it. Granted, we are all sinners and fall short, but most of our gut reactions will reflect what we deep-down, honest-to-goodness believe to be real and true.
