From the pastor's desk....
Good morning friends and family.May God richly bless you and keep you until the day of His Son's return.
"For there is One God and One Mediator between God and men,the Man Christ Jesus." (I Tim.2:5)
My friends and loved ones,the verse above simply states that there is only One who has the qualifications,to stand in the gap for us.There is only One who paid the price for our redemption and salvation.There is only One who has tread the winepress of the fierceness of the wrath of Almighty God,and has come out victorious,on the other side,shining brightly in the glory of God (Isaiah 63:1-6).This One,who carried the cross,this One,who for the joy that was set before Him,endured the cross,despising the shame,and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God (Hebrews 12:2).There is only One.It's not your mother or father,it's not the Protestant Church nor is it the Roman Catholic Church.It's not the Masonic Lodge nor the Kingdom Hall.It's not even yourself!
It's Jesus Christ,He it is,who alone can save from the wrath of God that is about to be poured out on a world,who for the most part,spits in the face of it's Creator,and issues forth "Double Dog Dares",if you will,to do something about it.My friends,and I call you friends,because your soul is eternal,and nothing in this life is worth hanging onto,when it comes to the destiny of your soul.As the Apostle Paul warned,that great apostle of the meaning of the New Covenant,we are living in dangerous times,perilous times.
"But know this,that in the last days,perilous times will come:For men will be lovers of themselves (self centered),lovers of money (greedy; doing anything to accumulate more),boasters,proud,blasphemers (using uncontrolled profanity,especially where it concerns the name of God),disobedient to parents (children in rebellion against parental authority),unthankful,unholy,unloving,unforgiving,slanderers,without self control,brutal,despisers of good (those who call evil good,and good evil),traitors,headstrong,haughty (arrogant),lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,having a form of godliness,but denying it's power (religious but lost).And from such turn away!" (II Tim 3:1-5).
This my friends,is an accurate description of the day and times we are living in,and it was written nearly two thousand years ago.I believe there will be one last outpouring of the Spirit of God,and already is taking place all over the world.Many are abandoning the true faith of Jesus Christ and are following cunningly devised fables to satisfy their lustful cravings,and yet there are others who,being convicted by the power of the Holy Spirit,realize they need help and and man can not provide what they need.Only Jesus Christ can still set the captive free.His blood still washes away the sins of our life.Do not scoff at what is being said.Way down deep in your spirit,you know that all is not well with your soul.Do not let the enemy of your soul deceive you any longer.Your path leads directly to the pit of Hell.Turn now while there is still breath in your lungs and a heart beat in your chest.
As a watchman on the wall,who sees the enemy approaching,I must warn you of impending danger.Your soul hangs in the balance,and you've been found wanting.Turn from sin and receive life today,in the name of Jesus.I don't know to whom this is sent,but God does and so does the one to whom it speaks.Please for the sake of your eternal soul,don't ignore the warning.Hell is a terrible place to spend eternity,knowing you had the chance to miss it.Receive Jesus Christ today!
Pray this prayer,and mean it with all your heart,and God will forgive you and come into your life: Dear heavenly Father,I confess my sin to you in the name of Jesus.I confess that I have offended you in thought,word and in deed.I deserve to spend eternity in Hell,but,I'm asking you now for mercy,for Jesus sake.I believe your word that says,if I will believe on the Lord Jesus Christ,and will be willing to turn from sin,and forsake it,that He will forgive me of all my sin and write my name in the Book of Life.Right now,I turn from all sin and invite Jesus Christ into my heart.Right now according to your word,I am forgiven,cleansed and saved,in Jesus name,Amen!
Congratulations,you are now a child of God,if you prayed this prayer in faith.Begin reading the Bible,in the book of John's gospel.Find a Church where the true Gospel is preached and believed,asking God to guide you to the right one,and He will show you.If you are one who has just given your heart to the Lord for the first time,or you have just rededicated your life,send me a message to let me know,so that I may rejoice with you in your new life.God bless you all,in that One who is the only mediator between God and man,Jesus Christ............Love,brother John.
