The "Young Stud" / What's On The Bench3

Visit the web page Bam Bam Holsters

We live in 5 acres and have had chickens for around 3 years I guess. There is one part of raising chickens that is just hilarious to me and that is when the young rooster, starts getting "manly".  They are funny when they stat learning how to crow. It takes them a while before they get it correct. Once they have it down, there is no shutting them up. They will crow at evvery opportunity, at all hours of the day.

Remembering that this is going to be the youngest rooster out there, just learning to do what roosters do.  When the "young stud" lets loose with a loud crow, I am often heard saying....."we hear you, stud".  Now you have to understand. While the young studs are literally being cocky, (which is exactly where the term comes from), the mature rooster is not near as vocal, and just acts like he has nothing to prove.

Well. on to my point.  Soon enough comes the time when the "Young Stud" (being to big for his britches) decides to square off with the more mature (much larger) rooster. It never ends well for the "Young Stud" that learns the hard way, not to get "cocky".


The point I am trying to make is this.....being as I am 50, I like to think of it as mature, at least in age anyways, I see or hear so many "young studs" (mostly on facebook) that are a little to cocky, just because they carry a gun. I practice so that I have the ability to defend myself, but have nothing to prove to anyone and no reason to be cocky. To many of the young studs are so preoccupied  proving that they are "tactical" and "a force to be reckoned with" or the best shot east of the Mississippi. Don't get me wrong, if some one "bows up" on me I will takes care of myself. Like has taught me that, odds are, it will be a "young stud" that does the "bowing up".

The "OTHER" Conceal Carry Insurance / What's On the Bench


Visit the web page Bam Bam Holsters

So, you have made the decision to carry a concealed firearm on a regular basis. There are so many important thing to consider. Willingness to use deadly force, training, practice, and some consider Conceal Carry Insurance. Typically, this is viewed as help fighting the possible legal battle that is likely to come up as a result of, even a “good shoot”…..
But have you considered….
The     “OTHER”

Conceal Carry Insurance

Have you considered the possibility that you just might lose the gun fight? Me personally, I think most people think that carrying a gun is going to ensure there safety and protection just because they have it.  Kind of like a rabbit foot, only better.  Then there are many of us that practice on a regular basis, but just like in the old west movies, there is always the possibility that the other guy is quicker.  So you have a 1.9 second draw and the bad guy has a 1.5 second draw and his aim is true. Have you considered…. “what next?”

It does not matter if it s a gunfight or heart attack, the truth is the same for all   …it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment (Hebrews 9:27)


It does not matter how “good with a gun” you are or how “good” you are in general, the truth is the same for all…. As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one (Romans 3:10)
The same chapter of the Bible explains why  none of us are righteous  For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; (Romans 3:23) And this truth is the same for all
It is “sin” that separates us from God. Separation, in the sense that God can not allow sin in His presence. When it comes down to the end of it all, separation from God is eternal and this truth is the same for all..And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.  (Revelation 20:14). 

This eternal condemnation of sin is the very reason, God allowed Jesus Christ to be put to death for you…. For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord (Romans 6:23).
The greatest truth of all times, is that God Loves You, and the proof of his love is seen on the Cross of Calvary But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us        (Romans 5:8)
God loves us enough, that he let his only son die in our place, just so we can put or faith and trust in the salvation from our sin that God offers. That is the reason that this is the worlds most recognized verse of the Bible For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (John 3:16)

Have you ever heard the statement that a 45 on your nightstand, does you no good while you are out on the streets?  It could save your life if you have it in your possession! Friend, Gods salvation is exactly the same. It does not serve as any salvation for you, unless you have possession of it. To me this is what explains it best……..
The fact that we don’t have righteousness, is our problem, here is how we get it. That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.  For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. (Romans 10:9-10)…………

My thesis is this. It is our heart felt, trusting faith in what Jesus Christ did on the Cross, and calling upon Him for salvation, which gives eternal life.

Is this a decision that you have made? Have you ever prayed something like this……
”God I know that I am a sinner, and that as such, I can never go to Heaven. I know that Jesus Christ died on the Cross to pay for my sins, and I humble accept your gift of salvation and eternal life” ……..   If not I pray that you will.
