"The scientist has scaled the mountains of ignorance; he is about to conquer
the highest peak; as he pulls himself over the final rock, he is greeted by
a band of theologians who have been sitting there for centuries." (Dr.
Robert Jastrow, internationally known astronomer)
From an
article entitled, "Have Astronomers Found God?" p. 53, July 1980
issue of Reader’s Digest. Condensed from the June 25, 1978 issue of
the New York Times Magazine.
"About the time of the End, a body of men
will be raised up who will turn their attention to the prophecies, and
insist on their literal interpretation in the midst of much clamor and
opposition."
Sir Isaac Newton (A.D.
1643–1727)
Short Cuts to help you Get Started
LCM's Purpose
LCM's multifaceted purpose is enumerated as follows:
-
Promoting biblical
understanding of Jesus Christ --
The Living Word (John 1:14)
-
Sharing the good news
of what Jesus Christ has done and is doing for people (The Gospel)
-
Making 'God's Simple Plan of
Salvation, available in many languages so that all who want may hear, understand, believe,
and receive the most valuable gift ever
-
Promoting truth taught
in the Word of God (Jesus
in Spirit and life, John 6:63)
-
Promoting Biblical truth concerning:
-
Religious ideas and
teachings that run contrary to literal Biblical teaching
-
Significant contemporary
developments and topics
-
Events and
characteristics predicted in the Bible concerning the Last Days
-
We seek to help the local economy on the field
where we work by promoting
the natural wander and beauty of Carriacou to hopefully increase tourism.
-
We also seek to keep our
friends updated on our missionary work of Windward Bible Church.
-
Our main thrust is to promote the teachings of the Christian Bible and its
Author and
central Character, Jesus Christ.
Missions Statement:
To
fulfill the commandment of the Lord Jesus Christ:
19Go
ye therefore, and teach
all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of
the Holy Ghost: 20Teaching
them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with
you alway, even
unto the end of the world. Amen. (Matthew 28:19-20)
It is our belief that simply teaching the Word of
God to prepared, open, and obedient hearts will result in the spiritual
rebirth that is necessary to enter heaven. (John 3:3) We also believe that the
Lord Jesus has commanded believers to reproduce, in the hearts of others, the
saving grace that has been made available only through faith in the person of
Jesus Christ and His finished work. Thus, it is also our goal to engage in the
ministry of helping disciples of Jesus Christ to become “...
fishers of men” (Matthew 4:9) through the ministry of prayer and
teaching the word of God. (Acts 6:4)

About Our Name
‘Last Chance
Ministries’ is so named because we provide a multifold
service (i.e., various ‘ministries’)
to the public.
From time to time people have shared to say that
‘Last Chance’ sounds
negative and ‘doom and gloom.’
I suppose it could sound that way to some, depending on their perspective.
Perhaps it is like viewing a glass of water half full or half empty.
However, I suspect that most people would rather take advantage
of any last chance they can get. Real ‘doom and gloom’
is when one is in trouble and ‘no
chance’ for help or escape remains.
Thus, I prefer to think of ‘Last Chance’
as positive and promoting hope.
It is my belief that each day the world comes
closer to events that will ultimately culminate in the return of
Jesus Christ to earth. If this occurs in our lifetime, then each day could be a
visitor’s last chance to learn about Jesus’ finished work and his marvelous gift
that He has made available to any with a hungry and open heart.
I believe the Christian Bible is true and
accurate about the past and future. Thus, I also I believe that what a
person does today in response to Jesus and all He has done and said could be the most
important opportunity (or chance) a person will ever have.
He that rejecteth me, and
receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken,
the same shall judge him in the last day. (Matthew 12:48)
Introduction
to LCM
Who Are
We?
(Walter T. Robinson II is the
creator
and webmaster of Last Chance Ministries)
The Robinson family (Walter, Linda, and Jeshua) are
American missionaries that are currently involved with making disciples
through the ministry of
Windward
Bible Church (WBC). The website about WBC can be found here on LCM under
its own domain at:
(www.WindwardBibleChurch.org)
This local church is located
on the small island of Carriacou, a possession of the country of Grenada
which is located in the southern Caribbean. Windward Bible Church was begun
in 1992. (You may see photos of our family on the Family and
WBC pages.)
LCM first established a web presence in 1996. The
goal is to use the World Wide Web (WWW) to keep our friends, prayer partners, and
supporters better informed about the church establishing work of
Windward
Bible Church. It is also to utilize the WWW to promote the gospel of Jesus Christ and
the truth of the Word of God.
About
LCM's Website
NOTE: I am
continually expanding and updating all areas of this website with new pages and additional
articles. Some pages may currently have only an introductory statement but no additional
information. Usually sections that are still under development will be designated as such.
If you keep checking back I am sure that you will find what you are looking for in due
time. I apologize for any inconvenience.
Other sections are up and fully operational. Please
contact me by e·mail if you have any comments or questions, or if you encounter any
problems browsing this site. This is the first time I have built anything more than a one
page website. I welcome any 'constructive' suggestions or criticism. Positive comments are
also welcome!
Lastly, I initially began to build LCM's site by
incorporating the use of frames. I later decided not to do so when I discovered that some
web surfers may be hindered in accessing or navigating the site because their browser does
not support frames. This site uses a simple shared top border with a navigation bar in
order to keep it as simple and accessible as possible.
In 2006, I have
taken significant steps to improve the ministry capabilities and
dependability of LCM. I have moved my primary website and domains to a much
more economical hosting service, GoDaddy of Scottsdale, Arizona. I have also
implemented Google's Adsense.

How to navigate LCM's Website
Reading this will likely save
you a lot of
time in looking for material on the LCM Website
Navigating through
LCM should be fairly simple. The most popular links are presented in the
left border where they are readily accessible from all of the pages. You
may also click any of the links in the heading or those embedded on any
pages throughout the site. Embedded textual links are usually designated as such by their color and being underlined.
You may
also use the Site Map link at the top of each page
to quickly see what pages are available to view. Click our LCM WORLD BANNER at the top of each page to return to the
home page. Lastly, if there is something specific you are looking for, you
may search for words or phrases on all of LCM's pages by using
LCM's internal search utility or the
external
Atomz Search or
Google utilities on
LCM's Search page.
Now, with all the above as clear as mud, the surfs up and the
water is crystal clear and warm! So dive in! I hope you 'knock yourself out' surfing and
having a good time.

The dangers of regularly receiving and forwarding mass emailings:

questions you need to read this.
