The Greatest Book!

Hello Students,

What is the greatest book in the world?

What is the most important book in the world?

What book in the world can you not live without?

What book is loved by many?

What book is hated by most?

What book contains thousands of promises which will be fulfilled to those who will believe and obey?

The Holy Bible is Jesus Christ's Word which is the standard for every Christian!

 
In Jesus,

PS. The King James Bible is recommended because it is the only Bible in English that is true to the inspired Hebrew and Greek Bible.

How Is A Christian Identified?

Hello Everyone, 
I trust you are having a Jesus week! I have been thinking lately about how people identify themselves. People have always since Babylon grouped off with those who speak their language. Its been that way for Centuries. How about in Christianity in our world? Not True Biblical Christianity but the Religious view? I often ask people to come to Church Meetings. Sometimes I get the response,"Oh, I'm Catholic or I'm Baptist etc." It seems the mindset for some is that Jesus is Catholic or Baptist. He is not!!!
Jesus is God. He is not going to ask you when you arrive at Heaven's gate if you were Baptist or Catholic or Pentecostal and how closely you followed the religions rules. He is going to ask you if you kept His Holy Word and if your name is written in the Book of Life ?There are some who need to wake up and find Jesus before its too late. 
(Acts 17:31 [KJV])
Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead.      Jesus in Non-Denominational. He is God. He doesn't underwrite Religious groups. He underwrites His word. As long as someone is following Jesus and keeping His Word and allowing that Word to do the Work its supposed to then
that person is being led by Jesus. The minute they get off into all the mindsets and theologies that don't coincide with the Word then that person is (and sorry is no better term that I can think of right now to describe it) LOST! If you were on a path that led to Heaven and you are off that path then you are LOST and need to get back on track.
Have a great day and Let Jesus be the Lord of your life!

In Jesus Name,

Dana Dartez Klein, Bible teacher

Will Preterism lead YOU to Hell?

Hello Friends,

  Preterism is a doctrine that may cause a Christian to end in Hell.

Why? You may ask. 


  The Holy Bible teaches a rapture. If one is not ready because of the disbelief in this rapture, then he/she will be left on earth to go through the seven years of the wrath of God towards the rebellious sinners.
  Sure some may be saved during these years, but will they endure the ... before the end of the seven years? 

Below is a website if you desire to know more about preterism.

Awesome Sunday Service

What a blessing to be in our Church Meeting today in Kaplan, La. We started out praying and thanking Jesus for all the blessings in our lives. Then we moved onto praise and worship. Our Pastor Brother Klein began to preach and teach the word or God with power and anointing. Jesus was so amazing in our midst. French Accordion music permeated the room and we danced and clapped and worshiped Jesus!  Brothers and Sisters testified in Cajun French and gave great reports of the wonderful works of God. The children went into the classroom to do art projects and I assisted them. We then came back to join the service. Brother Klein asked me to share what the Lord had given me earlier in the morning. I began to speak out of the book of Matthew
about the parable of the sower. I did not know that this was the subject Pastor Klein had just spoken on. Sister Hazel Henry told Brother Klein....hey she is preaching on the same subject. He said not to let on. I then began to elaborate on the text and Pastor Klein said I brought it out from an entirely different perspective than he had. This proved to me today of a certainty that we are so blessed to be a team for Jesus here in Kaplan teaching and preaching together. Right after service we baptized a young man named Kevin. Well Brother Kevin went down in the water in the mighty Name of Jesus Christ. When he came up we laid hands on him to receive the Holy Ghost baptism. The Spirit of the Lord fell upon him in a great way and he began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit of God gave him utterance. He was so excited that not long after he began to preach to all of us standing there. Praise be to the Lord Jesus Christ for the increase and for our new Brother in Jesus Christ.

First Bread Ministry/Fellowship Meeting Huge Success!

Hey if you missed being a part of Bread Ministry this past Sunday you really missed being a blessing. We had an awesome time of fellowship and community outreach. What a terrific thing to get together with local businesses in our community and distribute bread to every one who desired some. We make no difference in economic status but whoever wants bread receives it. Jesus did this. He did not only feed the poor but also those who asked. That is a Bible principle. Our Father who art in heaven hallowed be thy name.GIVE US THIS DAY OUR DAILY BREAD. That prayer that Jesus gave us is an example of how to ask. Everyone who asks receives. Jesus also always healed everyone who came to Him. One day He fed five thousand with two loaves and five fish. He is an awesome God. We also had dinners of catfish coubillion http://recipes.sparkpeople.com/recipe-detail.asp?recipe=564624 
donated by Brother John and Sister Donna Abshire along with Red Beans and Sausage cooked by Sis. Penny and numerous deserts donated by the ladies and gentleman of Acadian Lighthouse. Thank you all for the hard work and being such a blessing to others. Jesus will bless you for it. 
(Eccl 11:1 [KJV])

July 31, 2011 Bread Ministry/Fellowship Meeting Everyone Invited to help/attend!

Working on Bread Ministry today. We are soliciting the local businesses in our area for a blessing in our community. The last day of the month we have a big fellowship meeting and fix a meal. My awesome church people are then going to fix plate lunches and distribute them to elderly in our community. We are also going to give out bread and snack cakes to who ever shows up that day. Its a way of giving back some of the blessings God has given us. Its no great thing but a nice thing. I love this church. Every Thursday we go into a local retirement community and have service and sing. I play the guitar. One of the men ministers in French and the other in English. We then drive to the home of a shut in and have service. The lady cannot get out but we who are able go. It is so amazing to be involved in the work of Jesus on planet earth! Anyone who would like to attend this Fellowship meeting may come. We will even feed you and give you bread to take home. Its Sunday coming the 31st at 10 am till noon and after noon until about three or four depending on how many singers/speakers we have. I am also interested in poetry if anyone writes it come and give us a reading. Inspiration is what Jesus gives. We want you to be able to share your gift. Our speakers, singers etc are volunteers. Come be with us. In Jesus Dana D.Klein,

An Incredible Day! An Incredible Life!

I am so excited as we got to go down to the area where I was raised as a child today. It seemed so serene. I have traveled many beautiful places in the world but none match the beauty of the bayou and my childhood home of Franklin, La. The sleepy Bayou Teche runs lazily along a beautiful green carpet of grass and tall mossy oak trees. No place on earth holds as fond memories for me. My dear brother Mike, who was ten years my senior, lies to rest on the banks of the muddy Bayou Teche. I did not take the opportunity to stop by today but will in the near future. I love to reminisce and walk among the resting places of dear departed family and loved ones. The family names are etched upon marble and granite but always will be etched upon my heart. Dear Ms. Hattie Martin used to bring flowers to the grave of her husband Emmet and she never forgot Mike. My mama would find nice arrangements upon his tomb many times and we knew Hattie remembered him.
She was such a great person. I drove by her old business today Franklin Flower shop and remembered as a child how my brother did deliveries for her and how dear Marie used to work there. She was our down stairs neighbor when our apartment caught on fire. Life goes on in this sleepy community. The stillness and beauty that awaits visitors there is unmatched in my travels. I thought today as I drove around," I hope the people who are blessed to live this idyllic live are thankful every day as they awaken." The world though it offers beautiful places and treasures you can frame and put in statue cases cannot match the wonder of a life well lived in a place well loved.
Shalom
In Jesus,
Dana Klein

God's Word is Forever Settled in Heaven!

(Ps 119:89 [KJV])
Lamed.For ever O LORD , thy word is settled in heaven

(Ps 119:89
לְ·עוֹלָ֥ם יְהוָ֑ה דְּ֝בָרְ·ךָ֗ נִצָּ֥ב בַּ·שָּׁמָֽיִם׃

dabar (daw-bar') v.
1. perhaps properly, to arrange
2. but used figuratively (of words), to speak
3. rarely (in a destructive sense) to subdue
[a primitive root]
KJV: answer, appoint, bid, command, commune, declare, destroy, give, name, promise, pronounce, rehearse, say, speak, be spokesman, subdue, talk, teach, tell, think, use (entreaties), utter, X well, X work.
[?]

(Deut 8:3 [KJV])
And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the LORD doth man live.


The Lord opened up the Windows of Heaven in Exodus and fed His Children. He did not feed the whole world. He fed those who were His and kept His Commandments. Those who disregarded His Word on this Matter went back and tried to harvest on the same day they had been doing so which was on the Seventh Day or Yom. They did not profit to disregard God's Word. The Bible says," What does it profit a man if he gain the whole world but lose his soul?"
When the Lord speaks a word concerning a matter He means what He says. He has not changed in that sense. He again went to Moses and told Him if the people would keep His commandments that His Word Had not changed but went forth as He said to accomplish that which it set out to do. His Word never returns to Him void. It is a matter forever settled in heaven. Surely some of them out of ignorance or just plain rebellion refused to regard the Word of the Lord but they were not blessed for it. His people who had faith in His Word however were blessed.
Why is it that people think they are so special and that the God we serve, even the Lord Jesus Christ, who is the image of the invisible God made flesh does not uphold His own Word?
He is the Word read John 1:1 It says the Word was God. The Bible also says that He is the Manna come from Heaven. He is the Bread of Life. We are not to live by bread alone meaning the bread that we labour for but every Word which proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
When we live by our own means and break the Word of the Lord we cannot expect Him to bless us. He did not start it in the beginning...see Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deut etc
and He is not going to start doing it now. Obey His Word. Keep watch over His Word. Is He not our High Priest seated in the Heavenlies ever keeping watch over His Word to perform it?

(Heb 4:14 [KJV])
Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.

Faith and Obedience walk hand in Hand. You cannot have One and not the other and please the Lord. It does not work that way.

(Gen 26:3 [KJV])
Sojourn in this land, and I will be with thee, and will bless thee; for unto thee, and unto thy seed, I will give all these countries, and I will perform the oath which I sware unto Abraham thy father;

(Gen 26:4 [KJV])
And I will make thy seed to multiply as the stars of heaven, and will give unto thy seed all these countries; and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed;

(Mic 7:20 [KJV])
Thou wilt perform the truth to Jacob, and the mercy to Abraham, which thou hast sworn unto our fathers from the days of old.

(Gen 26:5 [KJV])
Because that Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.

So then we as Children of God will be blessed if we keep His Word.

The old song that rings out," Every promise in the Book is Mine. Every Chapter, every verse
every line" is still true today.


(Gal 3:29 [KJV])
And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.

Many times people are deceived in believing that they have nothing to do on their part except believe. That is deceiving. We have to have faith and faith is active. Faith without works is dead. We do not get to heaven by works alone nor do we get to heaven by faith alone. A person can believe something yet never put that belief into action. The devils believe there is One God and they tremble the Word says. A person can be a devil inside and know the Bible is true yet refuse to serve Jesus so believing alone is not enough. That does not save you. It needs to be taken a step farther. Believing the house is on fire is fine but if you sit there and go to your death burning because you were too stubborn to get out of the fire zone to a place of safety then your belief does not profit you whatsoever. We have to be doers of the Word not just hearers. Faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the Word of the Lord. It all works together for good!

Jesus Bless You as You Live for Him!
Sis.Dana D. Klein

We can get lost in time when we study!

I spent my entire day today studying for the Bible Study I am teaching tonight. Before I knew it time had flown and it is was almost time to save, print and get ready to leave. I find the Word so wonderful that I get so absorbed that time stands still.
I hope this short note finds you blessed and deep in study of the most worth while book on the plant....The Bible.
In Jesus,

Biblical Greek Class

Dr.Klein's Biblical Greek Class has been studying and working on translating a text this past week.
They are so excited to be able to read even a small portion (for some a larger portion) of the text in the original language. It really does my heart good to see the amount of study many of them are putting into it. Their Greek text books are becoming ragged already. They poor over the charts. If a person has a desire to learn and look into the things of Jesus that desire births more desire and the end is a greater revelation of who He is. That is what studying the Word of Jesus is about. In the book of John we see the scripture reading:
John 1:1 [KJV]
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
If the Logo's was in the beginning and that same Logo's was with God and that same Logo's was God and we want to know more about Him we can read his thoughts every day of the week. In doing so we will have a greater revelation and deeper knowledge of who He is. The next step after knowledge is then application.
We need to do as the Word says in
Rom 2:13 [KJV]
(For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.
Jas 1:22 [KJV]
But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.

Knowledge is great and Revelation is great but even greater is application.
Jas 1:25 [KJV]
But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.
Be blessed in applying the Word of Jesus to your life.

Product Description Amazon

In the beginning God...Who is this mysterious being worshiped the world over for thousands of years in many different ways, shapes, and forms. Is He attainable to the mortal, or so profound and far away that He can never be known by us.

In this book I will show that God can not only be attainable and known to us, but has already revealed Himself to us in His word commonly known as the Bible. I will also reveal the lies that post-Nicene Christianity has propagated about the one true God over the centuries and the roots from which they sprang.

There is but one God, let the trumpet of truth be sounded among the heresies and heretics, and let the truth be known of who this God truly is and what he has done, and how He has been made into something he's not by compromise and error.

Tolerant vs. Intolerant????

Hello Friends,

Have ever been considered intolerant?

The maybe accusing you of your Biblical plan of salvation, the deity of Jesus Christ, the Lake of Fire will be the home of all sinners, etc.

They accuse you of not being tolerant of their beliefs, but the reality is they are not being tolerant of your beliefs.

They are not tolerant of your true plan of salvation, etc.

They are intolerant of your true plan of salvation.

We tolerate those who deny the deity of Jesus Christ. Sure, they are going to Hell according to the Holy Bible, but we still tolerate them.

Sudan Christians - Hudreds are Dying, Daily! At the Hands of Muslims!

Hello Friends,

The same old story. If Muslims think they can control you, they will!

Muslims in Sudan as they have done in other countries of Africa and elsewhere are killing or causing to starve hundreds of Christians daily.

Islam likes slavery. Slavery of Christians is common in Sudan!

http://www.lnsart.com/Sudan%20Slave%20Story.htm

We really need to pray for these people!

When will Islam have that kind of control in the USA?

The Kor'an teaches to kill the infidel. Who are the infidels? If you are not a Muslim, you are an infidel!

Will your family be killed, because you won't convert? Or will they be slaves for Muslims?

Our church will be having a conference on Islam, November 12th and 13th, 2011.

Judaism doesn't have any prophets. God doesn't speak to those in Judaism! Except, personally for true Salvation.

The Israelites went through the Old Testament times needing to hear from prophets. Because of disobedience they went through 420 years of silence. Then John the Baptist, as a prophet arrives preaching a baptism of repentance. Most Israelites ignored him. Today, the prophets are found in the Church. Judaism doesn't have any prophets. Why? They are out of God's will!

The Consequences of Homosexual Marriage

Hello Friends,

A dad is arrested for trying to protect his son from public school's teaching on 'gay marriages'.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oJNrtv_aF18

We must take a stand against 'homosexual marriages'!!!!!!!!

As maybe Billy Graham said:

'God will owe an apology to Sodom and Gomorrah, if He doesn't punish the USA.'

“Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.” Jude 1:7

Muslim Brotherhood

The Muslim Brotherhood killed President Anwar Al Sadat of Egypt because he signed a peace agreement with Israel.

The Muslim Brotherhood has a branch in Gaza- its name is HAMAS!

The Muslim Brotherhood is not a peace loving movement. Jihad (holy war) plays a major part!

The Muslim Brotherhood is not a secular organization. They are a spiritual organization. Their goal is to rule the world!

Some state there are members of the Muslim Brotherhood employed by the USA's Homeland Security Department in key positions?

Greek Class Forming

Every Christian whether a pastor, a Bible teacher, preacher, Sunday school teacher, evangelist, mom, dad, etc. needs to be able to read the Holy Bible. The New Testament was written in Greek. It was translated into English. If you don’t know Greek, you can’t read the inspired, preserved Holy Bible - the Greek Bible! Your English Bible is only a translation. You miss a lot by not knowing what the Greek Holy Bible really teaches! Dr. Klein has written a couple of booklets on Biblical Greek- Reading & Grammar and a book of Greek charts.

We will also study from Dr. William D. Mounce’s Basics of Biblical Greek Grammar.

Well behaved children are welcome. Our boys are students. Homeschoolers are welcome.

Let the Bible Change You!

2 Kings 17:17 "And they caused their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire, and used divination and enchantments, and sold themselves to do evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger."

Faith in Jesus doesn’t call the man or woman down the road to treat them. Instead Christians go to the Lord in prayer asking the Elders (Pastor/Evangelist/Prophet/Teacher etc) to anoint with oil in the name of the Lord such as the book of James teaches in Chapter 5 verse 14 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord:

No one can tell me oh its okay and that it’s just our culture. God does not okay sin because it’s embedded in your culture. “Well it works,” some say. That doesn’t make it right with Jesus. People go to Mass or Church meetings and still go and get their cards read. Tell me what Priest or Pastor teaches that going to the fortune teller is okay? Where in the Bible does it say to use passed down secret knowledge to heal?

The children of our day have been very educated via media and games how to work spells to get what they want. A recent sorcery book that was brought into my home by my daughter went into the trash. I watched my Grandma walk to church and all of her children turned out fantastic. None were ever in jail. All of them made a good living and made her proud to be called their mother. One of the Ten Commandments is to honor our mothers and fathers. Read Exodus Chapter 20 for yourself. Do not lie. Do not steal. Honor the Sabbath day and keep it Holy. Do not covet or be greedy. There is only One God. Do not worship idols (not just statues either). Keep your marriage vows. If you are living a sinful life consider that you are teaching your children how to sin. Truth needs to start being taught in the homes. We have the responsibility for our homes. Measure yourself by the mirror of God’s Word not by what you think is right. If you don’t understand what you read then call me I teach Bible classes free of charge. My husband taught English for three years in China at a University. He can teach anyone to read the Bible with the Lord’s help. Jesus is God.

Obey, if You Want Answers to Prayer!

If you don't obey Jesus Christ, than don't waste your time praying!

Adam and Eve didn't loose the garden for not praying. They were praying. They lost the garden for not obeying.

The Israelites didn't loose the Promised Land for not praying. They lost the Promised Land for not obeying.

If you are not going to obey Jesus Christ, than why pray?

Are your prayers not being answered? Are you not obeying?

Defeating the Darkness Bible Conference

Light for Your Path

What a beautiful season we are entering into. All the yard work makes me think back to the garden called, “Eden that Adam and Eve tended.” What a beautiful place that must have been. If I like it here on earth so much I know I am going to love Heaven.

I always think of the Scripture in Revelation that describes all eternity with Jesus as this:

“And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.” Revelation 21:4

Think of it. A beautiful place prepared just for you and me by Jesus Christ, Himself. This is what He said, “In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.” John 14:2

Its going to be a wonderful place to be for all eternity with Jesus. We also can read that the Bible teaches the following:

“Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, 10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. 11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.” 1 Corinthians 6:9

So what is the bottom line? If you don’t like Jesus now, and the life the Bible teaches you

need to live in order to be saved, then why would you want to spend eternity with Him? To save yourself from eternal damnation? Its not going to happen that way. Make a choice to serve Him today before you end up outside of the boat like they did in Noah’s Day. Jesus is coming back for us. Be it one at a time or all at once we need to always be ready. This may be the last day or hour you have to choose? Choose Jesus. Choose life.

“But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.” Matthew 24:37

Why are You NOT Healed?

Some people seek Jesus Christ to heal them. At our church meetings many are healed!

Some receive healing, but they don’t stay healed, why?

1. Lack of Faith

“And he did not many mighty works there because of their unbelief.” Matthew 13:58

“That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.” 1Corinthians 2:5

2. Lack of Knowledge

“My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.” Hosea 4:6

3. Lack of Obedience

“If ye will not hear, and if ye will not lay it to heart, to give glory unto my name, saith the LORD of hosts, I will even send a curse upon you, and I will curse your blessings: yea, I have cursed them already, because ye do not lay it to heart.” Malachi 2:2

“And it shall come to pass, that every soul, which will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people.” Acts 3:23

Summary

“For this cause we also, since the day we heard it , do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; 10 That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God; 11 Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, …” Colossians 1:9-11

Spiritual Warfare Conference

What do you think of when you see the phrase ‘Spiritual Warfare’?

I think of guns and cannons coming at me from places I cannot see. I think of what the Bible speaks of as fiery darts sent from an enemy that is in another realm. If you think these kinds of thoughts, you are not far from the truth as defined by the Bible. It reads in Ephesians Chapter 6:12:

“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.”

Ask yourself, ‘do things keep happening in my life that have no earthly explanation?’ If so, maybe something spiritual is going on that can be combated, if you just knew how to use weapons given to us in the Bible. Maybe, you just need a Spiritual Boot Camp. If so, we have one coming up in Kaplan, La. Speakers who are ‘Experts in War’, as one of the conference speakers has stated. This speaker also has a book entitled, “Becoming an Expert in War.”

On April 8^th and 9^th, ‘Defeating the Darkness’, will be taking place at Acadian Lighthouse Church. We will begin on Friday night at 7pm and again on Saturday morning at 9am. The cost is free just bring your Bible. If you need a Bible call and let us know. Come and learn how to use Biblical weapons to fight the unseen forces that are bombarding you.

For more information call 337 517 3954.

Biblical Greek and Hebrew

Hello Everyone,

A very wise rabbi once said, “Reading the Bible in a translation is like kissing your bride through the veil.”

Studying Greek and Hebrew at Apostolic Theological Seminary and Bible College trains you to lift the veil to really study the Old Testament in the original Hebrew and the New Testament in the original Greek.

Are you tied of someone telling you what the Holy Bible says?

Easy Believism Salvation or Biblical Salvation

Having been a Baptist pastor trained in Baptist Bible colleges and seminaries; I did use the Roman’s Road to falsely lead individuals to Easy Believism Salvation!

The following is known as the Roman’s Road:

“For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;” Romans 3:23

“But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” Romans 5:8

“For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Romans 6:23

“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. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.” Romans 10:9-10

Next, the unknowing person would be asked to say the sinner’s prayer.

What is the problem with the above plan of salvation?

1. There are verses purposely left out!

2. There isn’t a sinner’s prayer given in Scripture nor is there an example of a sinner’s prayer in Scripture. NONE!

What are the verses left out from the Letter to the Romans in the Roman's Road?

Water Baptism is required to walk in newness of life!

“God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? 3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? 4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. 5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:” Romans 6:2-5

Holy Spirit Baptism is required. One must have Jesus’ Spirit indwelling. Jesus’ Spirit is the Holy Spirit.

“But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. 10 And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. 11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.” Romans 8:9-11

What did Jesus Christ say about salvation? He agrees with Romans 6 & 8 – one must have water & Holy Spirit Baptism.

“Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. 6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.” John 3:5-6

Did Jesus Christ say anything about a sinner’s prayer? NO!

What Did Jesus Christ say? He said you must be born of water and born of the Spirit to enter into the kingdom of God.

Did He say you must say a sinner’s prayer? NO! Nowhere in Scripture does Jesus Christ say to say a sinner’s prayer!

When you face Jesus Christ at your judgment, what will you say? Will you say I chose the easy believism salvation in place of obedience to YOU?

What did Peter say about Biblical salvation?

“Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do? 38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. 39 For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.” Acts 2:37

What did Paul say about Biblical salvation?

“Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus. 5 When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. 6 And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied.” Acts 19:4-6

“And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord.” Act 22:16

“I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: 7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. 8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.” Galatians 1:6

What else did Jesus Christ say:

“Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: 14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.” Matthew 7:13-14

The start for ones salvation is:

Repentance, Acts 2:38

Water baptism for the washing away of sin, Acts 22:16

Holy Spirit baptism, John 3:5-6

No Hand Holding in Islam!

Hello Friends,

This past fall when Dana and I were on the temple mount, we were told we couldn't hold hands.

Why? The Muslims didn't tell us why.

Could the reason be that they are so much into hatred that they have problems showing affection to their 4 wives??????

Get thee behind me, Satan!

Hello Students,

Please remember we need to be careful. We must use the right Holy Bible, like the King James Version.

One of the reasons why:

“And Jesus answered and said unto him, Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.” Luke 4:8 King James Version

“…Get thee behind me, Satan…” is edited by Satan in the New International Version, New American Standard Version, New Revised Standard Version, New Jerusalem Bible, New American Bible, American Standard Bible, New World Translation (Jehovah’s Witness), etc.

In Jesus,
Bruce

Amazing Ancient Manuscripts Confirm the Genesis Account of Creation

There are amazing discoveries in ancient manuscripts that confirm the teaching that God created the heavens and the earth and how He did it. The earliest of writings are the Sumerian cuneiform writings found in ancient Mesopotamia. There are classes a person can take to read the tablets. The language is known as Akkadian. It is so exciting to go back as far as the earliest written language and discover that they too have an account of Noah’s flood. It may not be word for word as in Genesis but the timing and the writings do not conflict. There is a lexicon that can be downloaded online for free if you are interested in doing some translation to read some of the ancient texts for your self. Although you could just skip it and read the English versions but then what would be the fun or challenge in that? http://www.sumerian.org/sumerian.pdf. You can just download it to your desk top. While though I may not agree with all the Genesis account written into the Epic of Gilgamesh. I do find it interesting. I don’t have to believe everything I read. I can as a rational being with intelligence though glean some important facts that validate Biblical experiences and add to my knowledge bank.

Personally, if a pastor cannot read at least the Greek New Testament from the original text or interpret it then he is not worth my time. I want to know more and more about the text in its original language. My opinion counts though where I am concerned and personally I vote with my feet when I feel my valuable time is being wasted. It takes a while to dress and do my hair and drive some place on a weeknight or Sunday. So in the words of the New Testament Writer….I want to make my calling and election sure. I am not going to rely on anyone else to tell me what I need to do to be saved. I want to make sure it lines up with the Bible and I want to read it for myself. I am not wasting my valuable time or life based on opinion. I need hard facts.

“ Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall: 11 For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.” 2 Peter 1:10 & 11

Is Jesus, Jehovah? YES!

Hello Friends,

If one were to follow the verses given below one would hopefully receive the revelation that Jesus is Jehovah. Jehovah is coming in the beginning verses with phrases describing himself. Those same phrases are used in reference to Jesus proving they are one and the same.

King James Bible

“I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.” Revelation 1:8

“And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.” Revelation 21:6

“And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. 12 “I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last (Is 44:6).” Revelation 22:12-13

“He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.” Revelation 22:20

The verses above are stating Jesus is coming as "I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last." As Jehovah is described.

“Thus saith the LORD (Jehovah) the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD (Jehovah) of hosts; I am the first, and I am ​the last; and beside me there is no God.” Isaiah 44:6

New World Translation

“I am the Al´pha and the O·me´ga,” says Jehovah God, “the One who is and who was and who is coming, the Almighty.” Revelation 1:8

And he said to me: “They have come to pass! I am the Al´pha and the O·me´ga, the beginning and the end. To anyone thirsting I will give from the fountain of the water of life free. Revelation 21:6

Look! I am coming quickly, and the reward I give is with me, to render to each one as his work is. 13 I am the Al´pha and the O·me´ga, the first and the last, the beginning and the end. Revelation 22:12-13

“He that bears witness of these things says, ‘Yes; I am coming quickly.’” “Amen! Come, Lord Jesus.” Revelation 22:20

“This is what Jehovah has said, the King of Israel and the Repurchaser of him, Jehovah of armies, ‘I am the first and I am the last, and besides me there is no God. Isaiah 44:6

Scientific Proof of the Scripture text that Two Become One Flesh!

This is a very informative video which gives scientific proof of what the word means in Genesis and Corinthians about One flesh. Watch it through and consider what it means.

(Gen 2:24 [KJV])
Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.

(1Cor 6:15 [KJV])
Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid.

(1Cor 6:16 [KJV])
What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.

(1Cor 6:17 [KJV])
But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.

(1Cor 6:18 [KJV])
Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.

(1Cor 6:19 [KJV])
What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?
