WHAT EASTER REALLY MEANS:

On Easter we remember Jesus' crucifixion (death on the cross) on GOOD FRIDAY,  and we celebrate Jesus rising from the dead, on Easter Sunday, known as the Resurrection of Jesus Christ.


PREFACE TO NEW EDITION (1998)

This little book I wrote in 1980 was called "The Truth Shall Make You Free!"  We printed 10,000 copies of that edition and they were given out as quickly as we could supply them.  Now 18 years later we are reprinting this fine booklet, but under a different title.

I felt "A Course in Basic Theology" was a more appropriate title.  May the Lord bless this book and bring deliverance and healing to multitudes.  - Max Solbrekken, Edmonton

DEDICATION

I wish to dedicate this book to all serious Bible students who desire God’s power in their lives with which to bring liberation, divine healing & deliverance to their fellowman.

Also to all who are hurting because of Satan’s snares, entrapments and torments. May each reader appropriate the promises of God found in this book and be liberated from sin, fear, sickness, disease, poverty & untimely death. And from demon possession!  Amen.

"Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free." (John 8:32)

The truth liberates the soul, the conscience and the mind of man! The truth breaks the chains of darkness, superstition and fear. It opens the prisons of doubt and unbelief! The truth removes mountains of discouragement, negativism and oppression! The truth defeats giants of despair, heartbreak and loneliness, and opens within us wells of joy, rivers of peace and floodtides of love.  Jesus said, "Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free!

Jesus prayed: "Thy Word O lord is Truth." (John 17:17)  Our Lord said, "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me." (John 14:6) The Bible teaches that the Word of God is Spirit and Life, (Philippians 2:16) and that Jesus also is the Word of God. (Rev. 19:13)

Theology of the Cross? A Basic Study Course "Theology of the Cross", Historical Evidence of life, death of Jesus by  Pastor Max SolbrekkenTHE BIBLE & OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST ARE BOTH REFERRED TO AS THE WORD OF GOD

Both the Bible and our Lord Jesus Christ are referred to as the Word of God and only Jesus and the Word has the power to make people free! 

The Bible is the written Word of God and Jesus is the Living Word of God! And if you will believe it my friend, Jesus Christ will come out of the pages of this book and enter your heart! 

Our Lord Jesus Christ made the statement, "Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin. And the servant abideth not in the house forever, but the son abideth ever. If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed." (John 8:34-36)

ANYONE WHO COMMITS SIN IS THE SERVANT OF 
SIN AND IS NOT FREE

The Bible states that anyone who commits sin is the servant of sin and is NOT FREE, but thanks to God, THE TRUTH WILL LIBERATE THEM! The Apostle John wrote, "If we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanseth us from all sin." (1 John 1:7)

Here are some very important facts about the TRUTH of GOD.

the life, death & resurrection of christ,course theology of cross. There is power in the blood of JesusWE MUST HEAR THE TRUTH - "So then faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the Word of God." (Romans 10:17)

Easter, Easter message Resurrection, Resurrection of Jesus Christ at Easter, the message of Resurrection of Cross, Easter messagesWE MUST BELIEVE THE TRUTH - "How shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?" (Romans 10:14)

WE MUST HOLD FAST TO THE TRUTH - "Prove all things; hold fast that which is good." (1 Thessalonians 5:21)  “Take heed unto thyself, and unto doctrine; continue in them; for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself and them that hear thee.” (1 Tim. 4:16)   "Buy the truth and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction and understanding." (Proverbs 23:23)

The Resurrection of Jesus Christ at Easter, the message of Resurrection of Cross, Easter messagesWE MUST TELL THE TRUTH - "For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of His Majesty." (2 Peter 1:16)

"Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; rebuke,  time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears." (2 Timothy 4:2-3)

"If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." (1 John 1:9)

WE MUST OBEY THE TRUTH - "If ye love Me, keep My commandments.” (John 14:15)

"If ye abide in Me and My words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you." (John 15:7)

"Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on Him, If ye continue in My word, then are ye My disciples indeed." (John 8:31)

"If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am a minister;" (Colossians 1:23)

"Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God." (2 Corinthians 5:20)

Satan is a liar, and the truth is not in him. Jesus Christ called the devil a liar and a murderer. John 8:44SATAN IS A LIAR AND THE TRUTH IS NOT IN HIM

Jesus called the devil a liar and a murderer: "Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar and the father of it." (John 8:44)

SATAN IS A COLOSSAL DECEIVER AND LIAR AND THERE
 IS NO TRUTH IN HIM

He may tell some truths or half truths in order to deceive and enslave the human race, but he himself is TOTAL DARKNESS AND THERE IS NO LIGHT OR LIFE IN HIM.  When you receive Jesus Christ as your personal Saviour, you say farewell to the kingdom of darkness and you are automatically translated into God's glorious Kingdom!

"Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints. Which is Christ in you the hope of Glory." (Colossians 1:26-27)

Jesus Christ is the light of the world. The Bible says, In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God and the Word was God." The scriptures declare that sinful men rejected Jesus because their deeds were wvil. They hated the light and loved the darkness. The Bible says, In Him (Jesus Christ) was life and the life was the light of men." (John 1:4)YOU ARE PASSED FROM DEATH UNTO LIFE, BECAUSE JESUS CHRIST IS THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD

The Bible says, "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by Him; and without Him was not anything made that was made. In Him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not." (1 John 1:1-5)

"And the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us, (and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father), full of grace and truth." (John 1:14)

The Scriptures declare that sinful men rejected Him because their deeds were evil! They hated the Light and loved the darkness. (John 3:19) The Bible says, "In Him (Jesus Christ) was Life and the Life was the Light of men." (John 1:4) Again the Scripture says, "He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him." (John 3:36)

WHEN THE LIGHT IS SWITCHED ON, THE DARKNESS FLEES AND WHEN JESUS COMES INTO A LIFE IN HIS GREAT POWER, ALL SIN, FEAR, OPPRESSION, SICKNESS, DISEASE AND EVIL POWERS LEAVE! PRAISE GOD.

There are five glorious truths that I wish to set forth in this lesson, to help build your faith! As a stone mason lays block upon block, so I present these truths ‘Scripture upon Scripture’, knowing that the Word of God creates faith in our hearts and faith gets the job done! Praise God.

God has not changed, He cannot change and will never change. The Bible says, "I am the Lord, I change not." (Malachi 3:6)#1 - GOD HAS NOT CHANGED, CANNOT CHANGE AND WILL NEVER CHANGE

"I am the Lord, I change not." (Malachi 3:6)

Here, the Living God makes one of His most significant statements of fact. He is changeless, always constant and timeless! Nothing can alter that great truth! Men are born, live, pass on and are gone like the grass of the field, but God remains the SAME.

The Bible says, “And Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands: They shall perish; but Thou remainest; and they all shall wax old as doth a garment; And as a vesture shalt Thou fold them up, and they shall be changed: but Thou art the same, and Thy years shall not fail." (Hebrews 1:10-12

WE MUST OBEY THE TRUTH

Here are several great truths about God:

God is eternal, which means without beginning or end - everlasting and always God. theology of cross,resurrection christ,course theology of cross(1)  GOD IS ETERNAL

God is eternal - without beginning or end - everlasting and always God.

The Psalmist David wrote: "Lord, Thou has been our dwelling place in all generations. Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God...

"For a thousand years in Thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night." (Psalms 90:1-4)

"The eternal God is thy refuge and underneath are the everlasting arms..." (Deuteronomy  33:27)

God  is onmipotent (meaning - He is all powerful.  The Bible says, "I am the Lord, and there is none else, there is no God beside Me: I girded thee, though thou hast not know me: That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is nonoe beside Me. I am the Lord, and there is none else." (Isaiah 45:5-6) ,course theology of cross(2) GOD IS OMNIPOTENT

God is omnipotent (meaning)  - He is all powerful.

"I am the Lord, and there is none else, there is no God beside Me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known Me: That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside Me. I am the Lord, and there is none else." (Isaiah 45:5-6)

"I have made the earth, and created man upon it: I, even My hands, have stretched out the heavens, and all their host have I commanded.” (Isaiah 45:12)

Jesus said: "All power is given unto Me in heaven and in earth." (Matthew 28:18)

God is Omniscient - which means He is all wise and all knowing.  the message of Resurrection of Cross, Easter messages(3) GOD IS OMNISCIENT

GOD IS OMNISCIENT (meaning) - He is all wise & all knowing.

"For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.

"Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?

"For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe. For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:

"But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumbling block, and unto the Greeks foolishness; But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God. Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men." (1 Corinthians  2:18-25)

"To God only wise, be glory through Jesus Christ forever. Amen." (Rom. 16:27) If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him." (James 1:5)

(a)  GOD HAS NOT CHANGED:

From eternity to eternity He is God! He was the same in the beginning of man’s existence, He is the same today and He will be the same throughout eternity! Praise God.

(b)  GOD CANNOT CHANGE:

It is impossible for God to be anything but Who and What He is today - kind, loving, generous, good, holy, just and true.

(c)  GOD WILL NOT CHANGE IN THE FUTURE:

The Bible says: "I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which is to come, the Almighty." (Revelation 1:8)

"And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of Thine hands: They shall perish; but Thou remainest; and they all shall wax old as doth a garment; And as a vesture shalt Thou fold them up, and they shall be changed: but Thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail.” (Hebrews 1:10-12)

(d)  GOD IS IMMUTABLE:

He is perfect in all things; totally truthful, and since He never makes a mistake He doesn't need to apologize for error. There is no error in God. If He has said it, that settles it. God is God and is changeless and unalterable. The “immutability of His Word” speaks of the permanent character of His Word. Since God and His Word are one, He is permanently error-free, righteous and perfect! Glory to His Name. You can believe unreservedly on Him with total trust. (Hebrews 6:13-18)

BECAUSE GOD HAS NOT CHANGED

God still answers prayer. The Bible says, "Call unto Me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not" (Jeremiah 33:3)GOD STILL ANSWERS PRAYER

(1) God still answers prayer: “Call unto Me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.” (Jeremiah 33:3)

"Ask, and it shall be given you; seek and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For everyone that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened." (Matthew  7:7-8)

GOD STILL FORGIVES THE SINNER

(2) God still forgives the sinner: "And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved." (Acts 2:21) 

"But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanseth us from all sin. If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." (l John 1:7-9)

GOD STILL BRINGS PEACE TO THE TROUBLED AND REMOVES GUILT

(3) God still brings peace to the troubled and removes guilt: "Let not your heart be troubled; ye believe in God, believe also in Me. Peace I leave with you, My peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid." (John 14:1, 27)

"Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit." (Romans  5:1; 8:1)

GOD STILL CARES

(4) God still cares: “And the Lord said, I have surely seen the affliction of My people which are in Egypt, and have heard their cry by reason of their taskmasters; for I know their sorrows; 

And I am come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land unto a good land and a large, unto a land flowing with milk and honey; unto the place of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites.” (Exodus 3:7-8)

"Casting all your care upon Him; for He careth for you." (1 Peter 5:7)

GOD STILL MEETS OUR NEEDS

(5)God still meets our needs: “Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house. And prove Me herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.

"And I will rebuke the destroyer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground, neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the Lord of hosts.” (Malachi 3:10-11)

"But my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus." (Philippians 4:19)

GOD STILL HEALS THE SICK

(6)God still heals the sick: "And these signs shall follow them that believe; in My name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; they shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover." (Mark 16: 17-18)

"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: and the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him." (James 5:14-15)

GOD STILL FILLS BELIEVERS WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT

(7) God still fills believers with the Holy Spirit: "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. 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 2:38-39)

"If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask Him?” (Luke 11:13)

GOD STILL BLESSES AND LOADS US WITH BENEFITS

(8) God still blesses and loads us with benefits: "Bless the Lord, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless His holy name. Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits: Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; Who healeth all thy diseases." (Psalms 103:1-3)

"Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.” (3 John 1:2)

tthe message of Resurrection of Cross, Easter messagesGOD STILL PROTECTS US FROM DANGER, EVIL AND SATAN

(9) God still protects us from danger, evil and Satan: "There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling. For He shall give His angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways." (Psalms 91:10-11)

Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of My righteousness." (Isa. 41:10) "Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; Who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies." (Psalms 103:4)

"And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through Thy name.” (Luke 10:17)

GOD STILL LEADS, GUIDES & DIRECTS US

(10) God still leads, guides & directs us: “For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.

"The Spirit (Himself) beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with Him, that we may be also glorified together.” (Romans 8:14-17)

#2 - GOD HAS NOT LIED, CANNOT LIE AND WILL NEVER LIE

(a) We know what God will do in the future by what He has done in the past, because He has not changed. He has always told the truth for He is the truth and since it is impossible for God to lie, we know we can put our trust in Him as God.

(b) He is too good to do anything wrong. He is too wise to make a mistake. He is too powerful to allow Satan to harm His children who call upon His Name in faith and who trust in His truth.

(c) He is too conscientious and correct to lose our number, forget us or leave us to aimlessly drift on the sea of life and death without His divine guidance and direction.

(d) The Scripture emphatically declares: "God is not a man that He should lie, neither the son of man that he should repent (change his mind) hath He said, and shall He not do it? Or hath He spoken, and shall He not make it good? (Numbers 23:19)

Samuel the Prophet declared: "And also the Strength of Israel will not lie or repent: for He is not a man, that He should repent." (1 Samuel 15:29)

GOD IS CONSTANT

You can believe the Word of God because it is ever and always the same. St. James said, "A double minded man is unstable in all his ways!" He admonishes us to ask God for our needs, in faith. And He assures us that our needs will be met, because we are dealing with one Who is always the same and Who is liberal in His giving.

"Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with Whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning." (James 1:17)

St. Paul, in writing to Titus made the great declaration that I am now making - "God cannot lie." (Titus 1:2)

Since it is impossible for God to lie, His nature is totally against falsehood and His commandments all demand truth and condemn lying.  We can rest assured that His promises are trustworthy.

The Bible says, "I hate every false way." (Psalm 119:104)

"Lying lips are abomination to the Lord: but they that deal truly are His delight." (Proverbs 12:22),

"And He that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And He said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful." (Revelation 21:5)

Our Lord Jesus Christ stated, "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life." (John 14:6)

God has never lied, cannot lie and will not lie, for He not only speaks the Truth but HE IS THE TRUTH.

THERE IS NO TRUTH IN SATAN ! HE IS A LIAR

Jesus Christ's description of the Evil One was an indictment: "He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him." (John 8:44)

False teachers who give themselves over to Satan, become perverted, because he is perverted

"And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which we not convenient." (Romans 1:28)

"Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron."  (1 Timothy 4:1-2)

The Holy Scriptures make it very plain that the blessed Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Truth

"But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you, from the Father, even the Spirit of Truth, which proceedeth from the Father, He shall testify of Me." (John 15:26)

"...the anointing of God teaches you all things and is truth and is no lie." (1 John 2:27)

WHO IS A LIAR?  HE WHO DENIES CHRIST'S DIVINITY

St. John declared, "I have not written unto you because ye know not the truth, but because ye know it, and that no lie is of the truth.   Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ?  He is anti-christ, that denieth the Son, the same hath not the father: but he that acknowledges the Son hath the Father also." (1 John 2:21-23)

All who advocate teachings, ideologies and doctrines which disagree with the Holy Bible - which is the Divine, Infallible Word of God, were labeled liars by the Apostle Paul when he wrote:

"For what is some did not believe?  Shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect?  God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar.."  (Romans 3:3-4)

It matters not what men say about the Word of God - It will stand the test of both time and eternity; never swerving or changing, but always constant and firm.  Praise God.

IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR GOD TO LIE

The writer  to the Hebrews (probably St. Paul) wrote about two immutable things, which he gave as a proof that God can be trusted to be absolutely steadfast, trustworthy and honourable in all things.

"For when God made promises to Abraham, because He could swear by no greater, He swore by Himself, saying, Surely, blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiple thee.

And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise. For men verily swear by the greater: and an oath for confirmation to to them at end of all strife.

"Wherein God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of promise the immutability of His counsel (the permanent character of His Word) confirmed it by an oath:  That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us:"

"Which we have as an anchor for the soul, both sure and steadfast and which entereth into that within the veil; whither the forerunner if for us entered, even Jesus, made an High Priest for ever after the order of Melchisedek." (Hebrews6:13-20)

#3 - GOD IS NO RESPECTER, OF PERSONS, PLACES OR TIMES

What He has done for one, He will do for all that believe.  WHY IS THIS?  

He is no respecter of persons.  The only thing that God answers to is faith and sincerity.  If we mean business with God, calling upon Him in humility and faith, He will answer.  Jesus often said to those whom He saved, healed and delivered, "Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace."  (Luke 7:50).

"Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole." (Luke 17:19)  "According to your faith, be it unto you."  (Matthew 9:29)

"If thou wouldst believe thou shouldest see the glory of God?" (John 11:40)

FAITH STIRS THE HEART OF GOD AND CAUSES 
HIM TO WORK ON OUR BEHALF

The Scripture says, "Whosoever shall call upon the name of the LORD shall be saved." (Acts 2:21)  "He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him." (John 3:36)

Again the Bible says, "He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved, but he that believeth shall not be damned." (Mark 16:16)

"These signs shall follow them that believe; In My Name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick and they shall recover." (Mark 16:17-18)

Jesus said, "Whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have eternal life." (John 3:15)

"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:  And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the LORD shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him." (James 5:4)

St. Peter said, "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. 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 2:38-39)

The Angel said, "Fear not; for behold I bring you tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people." (Luke 2:10) Jesus said, "Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled." (Matthew 5:6)

The Scripture says, "He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he hath sent empty away." (Luke 1:53)

James declared, "If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him." (James 1:5)

DRAW NIGH TO GOD, AND HE WILL DRAW NIGH TO YOU

Again the Word of God declares, "Draw nigh to God, and He will draw nigh to you." (James 4:8) James further declared, "Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you." (James 4:6)

PUT ON THE WHOLE ARMOUR OF GOD

The weapons of our warfare are for all Christians and are provided for all who will put them on and use them.

"For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds." (2 Corinthians 10:4)  "Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil." (Ephesians 6:11)

Jesus said, "Go ye therefore and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost." (Matthew 28:19) Again the Bible says, "And this gospel of the Kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come." (Matthew 24:14)

St. Paul said, "For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon Him." (Romans 10:12)

1) GOD IS NO RESPECTER OF PERSONS

"Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved." (Acts 16:31)

ALL WHO CALL UPON THE NAME OF THE LORD SHALL BE SAVED

"And it shall come to pass that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.: (Acts 2:21) ALL WHO BELIEVE THE GOSPEL, REPENT OF THEIR SINS AND CONFESS THEM TO CHRIST ARE FORGIVEN.

GOD ANSWERS THE PRAYERS OF ALL WHO ASK IN FAITH

"Ask and it shall be given you; seek and ye shall find; knock and it shall be opened unto you. For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened." (Matt.7:7-8) St. Peter said, "Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons." (Acts 10:34)

St. James wrote that  "God gives to all men liberally and upbraideth not." (James 1:5)

2) GOD IS NO RESPECTER OF PLACES

Because God is eternal, omnipotent, omniscient and omnipresent there is no problem for Him to be everywhere at the same time.

Since He does not grow old, but remains the same, He can still operate effectively during the totality of our earth’s history - past, present or future.

And because God does not change, He will still perform those same great miracles which He has performed in the past in any place, any time or for any one He so chooses! He is God and therefore, has all power, knows all things and can do all things.

Time does not deter God! Geographical boundaries give Him no problem, for He created everything and owns everything. He is not a stranger to any place, anything or anybody.

What He did in Jerusalem He can do in Africa, Canada or Russia.

The color of the skin, the language of the people or climatic conditions have no effect on Him. He is true to His Word, always honours faith, rejects partiality, responds to worship and praise, delights in the truth and enjoys showing mercy, compassion and tenderness.

He still drives out fears, enjoys liberating the slaves of Satanic bondage and sin. And He hastens to heal all the sick and diseased, who recognize Him as Lord and Healer.

3) GOD IS NO RESPECTER OF PERSONS AND ALL WHO CALL UPON HIM IN FAITH GET A HEARING AND ARE BLESSED:

Regardless of who you are, or where you live, God will hear you if you call upon him in faith.  I repeat, God is no respecter of places, nationalities or geographic boundaries.

St. Paul stated, "There is no respecter of persons with God. For as many as have sinned without the law shall also perish without the law; and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law." (Romans 2:11-12)

Rich and poor, black and white, red, yellow and brown all stand on even ground in His sight! (There are certain promises made to Israel that do not apply to the Gentiles. These are an exception, for Israel has played and will play a special role in the history of God's dealings with man).

His love transcends all borders as St. Peter discovered when he and six of his Jewish brethren went - by the command of the Lord - to minister to Cornelius and his household.

"While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word. And they of the circumcision which believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost. For they heard them speak with tongues and magnify God." (Acts 10:44-46)

FOOLISH MEN HAVE TRIED TO DICTATE TO GOD

You cannot lock God in a time capsule or a straight jacket, dictating to Him when, where and upon whom He can or cannot work His works.

He is God and cannot be bound by our finite minds and often "wrong thinking" in the natural.

Theologians have tried to do this repeatedly! Just as they have put a TIMING DEVICE on HIS ABILITY and PREDESTINED HIS WILL in such matters, He suddenly breaks forth in sovereign and glorious demonstration and does the unthinkable in the most unusual places and forbidden (so-called theological) times.

Revival after revival has broken loose in nation after nation, century after century, and will continue to do so until Jesus comes and the Church is raptured.

The Pharisees and Sadducees were disturbed that Jesus broke the Sabbath by healing the sick on that day. (John 5:10-18)

Jesus declared that He had been sent only to the lost sheep of the House of Israel (Matthew15:20-28), yet He was drawn by human need and went to the Well of Sychar in Samaria in order to save an adulterous woman, as well as many of her friends. (John 4:28-30) A great revival was the outcome, as He stayed for two days ministering to them.

Almighty God upset Peter by giving him a vision of unclean animals and telling him to rise up, kill and eat, thereby sending him to the Gentiles. (Acts 10:9-16).  The Apostles and Disciples of our Lord continued to preach the Gospel and work miracles in Jesus’ Name, even though they were forbidden to do so by the religious authorities in the face of imprisonment and death. (Acts 4:16-21)

God worked miracles through the ministry of lay people like Stephen and Philip who were only deacons (Acts 7:5-8) and used the common people to spread the Gospel during times of great persecution. (Acts 8:1-5).  The Early Church grew and multiplied covering the earth even in times of poverty,  testing and persecution.

The Protestant Reformation altered the balance of power - The Gospel of Christ began to triumph again

Martin Luther shook the Roman Catholic conglomerate when he opposed many of its corrupt practices, and great revivals broke loose bringing liberty and Holy Ghost joy to millions, against the objections of a powerful ruling church and state.

John and Charles Wesley, George Whitefield, John Knox, D.L. Moody, Charles Finney and other great evangelists proved that God was not through working among men, spearheading revivals that shook the world.

John Lake, Charles S. Price, William Freeman, Jack Coe, Gordon Lindsay, Oral Roberts and other great evangelists led multitudes into the knowledge of God's healing stream.

At this point in time, millions of people from all major denominations upon the face of the earth are being filled with the Holy Spirit speaking in tongues in a great charismatic revival.

Many religious leaders would like to stop the revival if they could, but it cannot be quenched. It burns on in Holy Ghost flame and fire! Yes, God is working His miracles today, despite and in spite of the foolishness of man's narrow and restricted vision and misconceptions - Praise the Living God.

GOD HAS NEVER FAILED

Although man has failed in everything he has tried to do, God is perfect and has never failed. He cannot fail and He will not fail! King Solomon, in his anointed dedicatory prayer made the statement, "Not one word of all His good promises has failed." (1 Kings 8:56)

God has not failed, He cannot fail and He will not fail! It is impossible for God to fail.

HE CANNOT DENY HIMSELF, FOR HE IS FAITHFUL WHO HAS PROMISED

(2 Timothy 2:13) The Scripture says, "The callings of God are without repentance."  (Romans 11:29)  When He gives us something, He does so because He so desires, and He does not ask us to return that gift.

The Bible says, "The foundations of God are sure having this seal, the Lord knoweth them that are His."  (2 Timothy 2:19)

He called Samuel by name and He also knew Jeremiah and Jacob personally

Since He knows us by name, He is able to supply our needs as well as keep us in His perfect will! He also sees the sparrow fall, knows the number of hairs on our heads and clothes the lilies of the field.

Certainly He has enough grace, goodness, propriety and good sense to look after us! His wisdom is greater than all and we are His creation, as well as members of His body and sons and daughters through the new birth.

And by adoption, we have become heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ (Romans 8:17), bone of His bone and flesh of His flesh. (Ephesians 5:30)

Why is this? We are the body of Christ and members in particular of His body. (1 Corinthians 12:12)  Praise God.

Since He has become so involved in our lives and invested so much in us, certainly - in His divine wisdom and understanding - He will not discard us, as some would have us believe.

JESUS SAID, "I WILL NEVER THEE THEE, NOR FORSAKE THEE."

Jesus said, "I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee." (Hebrews13:5) Here, Jesus used a double imperative: "I will never, no never leave thee. I will never, no never forsake thee."  I will be with thee unto the end of the world. (Matthew 28:20) No wonder St. Peter declared that we are "...kept by the power of God through faith..." (1 Peter 1:5)

You cannot divorce God's presence from His power!  Many desire God's presence with them, but they do not expect Him to effectively use His power to work a miracle for them.

You cannot separate the healing, saving, delivering and keeping power of God from His ever-abiding presence! You can always depend upon the Lord because of His faithfulness and dependability.

"Jesus never fails - Jesus never fails - Heaven and earth shall pass away, but Jesus never fails!" God has not failed in the past, is faithful now and cannot and will not fail in the future. What a glorious truth and what an Almighty God we serve. Hallelujah.

GOD REMAINS FAITHFUL STILL

Often among us humans there are gross contradictions or seeming contradictions as situations change, attitudes change and positions change to adapt to the new realities of life. Not so with God - He is changeless and His purposes, aims and goals forge ahead unabated.

During World War II we certainly saw evidence of how leaders and nations changed their positions. Stalin fought alongside Hitler until he realized the West would ultimately win, then the wily communists left their Nazi bed-partners and joined with the West.

The Pope of Rome blessed Benito Mussolini together with his war machine to go out in murderous raids against Ethiopia to plunder, murder and rape. When the Roman Catholic church saw that Mussolini would fall, they quickly changed their minds and swung over to the Allied side.

The U.S.A. was going to keep out of the war until the Imperial forces of Hirohito smashed the U.S. Naval Japan’s base in Honolulu. That changed their position totally and thrust them into the Second World War, bringing ultimate victory to the Allied forces.

And very recently, US President Bill Clinton labeled Osama bin Laden as the world’s leading terrorist. During much publicity about his shameful, gross conduct that led to his impeachment, Clinton suddenly sent US warplanes to strike at Osama bin Laden’s camps in Afghanistan and Pakistan.

Then, suddenly Bill Clinton is seen leading NATO airplanes against President Slobodan Milosonic's Ugoslavia. Nato then began a close relationship with the KLA - formerly labeled as Kosovo's bloody "terrorists", suddenly turned freedom fighters.

And where have they been getting their financing? Through "drug running", the mafia & guess who - Osama bin Laden. Clinton & Osama are friends at long last! What strange bedfellows.

How the Blood of Jesus heals us. Jesus Christ, Who is Jesus Christ? Why is Jesus Christ the only way to Heaven, How to get to Heaven, GOD HOWEVER, DOES NOT CHANGE AND CANNOT DENY HIMSELF

St. Paul declares, "Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds; but the word of God is not bound." (2 Timothy 3:10)

You cannot destroy, bind or nullify the Word of God. The Bible says, "The Scripture cannot be broken" (John 10:35) and  "The Word of God is quick and powerful, and sharper than any two edged sword..." (Hebrews 4:12) Certainly we can trust the Word of God for time and eternity.

Paul continues: "If we believe not, yet He remaineth faithful; He cannot deny Himself." (2 Timothy 3:13) Even though we fail Him, His Word is still true and He will not deny Himself or fail us.

LET GOD BE TRUE

"For what if some did not believe? Shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect? God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar.." (Romans 3:3-4)

Does God fail? Can He fail? Will He fail? Certainly not! Is He trustworthy? Can we depend upon Him? Most certainly we can.

The Scripture states that even if some do not believe, that does not nullify the Word of God! Then St. Paul comes on strong: "GOD FORBID"  yea, let God be true and every man be a liar.

May I add that every person who denies the Word of God, opposes the Word of God.

ANYONE WHO CHANGES THE WORD OF GOD IS A COLOSSAL LIAR AND ENEMY OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD

That is the reason God hates the false way of the so-called Christian cults eg. Mormon, Jehovah Witness, Christian Science, Scientology, Christadelphian, H.W. Armstrongism, Branhamism, New Age Movement and others, who teach for the Word of God their own man-made, accursed traditions and teachings.

The reason I say accursed is because that is what they are! I am quoting St. Paul: "I would that ye are so soon removed from Him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another Gospel; which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the Gospel of Christ."

"But though we or angel from Heaven, preach any other Gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. As we said before, so say I now again, if any man preach any other Gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed." (Galatians 1:6-9)

THE GIFTS AND CALLINGS OF GOD

The Scripture speaks of Israel, who has backslidden and been judged severely, but who will be saved in the end. We are the bride of Christ (Revelation 21:9) to be married to Christ - the Heavenly Bridegroom - in the Marriage Supper of the Lamb. (Revelation19:9) Israel however is the wife of God and He is married to the backslidden Israel. (Isaiah 64:6-7)

However, because of His faithfulness, she shall be given a final chance and after He has taken her through much tribulation, in the end, Israel shall be saved.

"And so all Israel shall be saved...for this is My covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins. For the gifts and callings of God are without repentance." (Romans 11:26, 17, 29)

After crucifying His Son on the Cross and after they have embraced the false christ (the Anti-Christ) during the first 3-1/2 years of the Great Tribulation, still God will forgive Israel and bring them into the fold in the End Time, because of His Covenant with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, WHICH HE WILL NOT BREAK UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES. Praise the Lord.

What a great, good and wonderful God we serve and how thankful we should be for His grace, mercy and longsuffering towards us.

GOD ALWAYS FULFILLS HIS WORD

Repeatedly, we read in the Holy Scriptures the words "...that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets.." (Matthew 1:21; 2:17)

You can be absolutely certain that whatever the prophets declared would come to pass, shall come to pass! There is no doubt about the veracity of God's Word.

When you read in the Holy Bible: "Thus saith the Lord..."  You can be absolutely certain that it will happen - it will come to pass. Again we read often  "...and it shall come to pass..."

Make no mistake about it, when God has declared something, whatever He has declared will in fact come to pass. Let us look briefly at only a few verses of Scripture to back up these claims.

Who is Jesus Christ? Why is Jesus Christ the only way to Heaven, How the Blood of Jesus heals us. Jesus Christ, How to get to Heaven, (I) - THE BIRTH OF JESUS

"Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a Son, and shall call His name Emanuel."  (Isaiah 7:14)  "...the Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God." (Luke 1:35)

"Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying.." (Matthew  1:22) "But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth His Son..."  (Galatians 4:4)

Theology,course theology, the birth of Jesus, the death of Jesus, historic evidence of Jesus' life and death.(II) - THE DEATH OF JESUS

"Then saith Jesus unto them, All ye shall be offended because of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered abroad." (Matthew 26:31)

"And forthwith he came to Jesus, and said, Hail, master; and kissed Him. And Jesus said unto him, Friend, wherefore art thou come? Then came they, and laid hands on Jesus, and took Him away."  (Matthew  26: 49-50)

"In that same hour said Jesus to the multitudes, Are ye come out as against a thief with swords and staves for to take Me? I sat daily with you teaching in the temple, and ye laid no hold on Me. But all this was done, that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then all the disciples forsook Him, and fled." (Matthew 26:55-56)

"Ye know that after two days is the feast of the passover, and the Son of man is betrayed to be crucified." (Matthew 26:2)

"Then Judas, which had betrayed Him, when he saw that He was condemned, repented himself, and brought again the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders, Saying, I have sinned in that I have betrayed innocent blood. And they said, What is that to us? see thou to that. And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and hanged himself."

"And the chief priests took the silver pieces, and said, It is not lawful for to put them into the treasury, because it is the price of blood. And they took counsel, and bought with them the potter's field, to bury strangers in. Wherefore that field was called, The field of blood, unto this day."

"Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying, And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of Him that was valued, Whom they of the children of Israel did value; And gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord appointed me."  (Matthew 27:3-10)

(III) - THE RESURRECTION OF JESUS

"In the end of the Sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.

And, behold there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it. His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow:

And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead men. And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified. He is not here: for He is risen, as He said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay. And go quickly, and tell His disciples that He is risen from the dead, and, behold, He goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see Him: lo, I have told you."

"And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy; and did run to bring His disciples word. And as they went to tell His disciples, behold, Jesus met them, saying, All hail. And they came and held Him by the feet, and worshipped Him."

"Then said Jesus unto them, Be not afraid: go tell My brethren that they go into Galilee, and there shall they see Me." (Matthew 28:1-10)

(IV) - THE OUTPOURING OF THE HOLY GHOST

"And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out My Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions; And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out My Spirit." (Joel 2:28-29)

"But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel; And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of My Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved." (Acts 2: 16-17 & 21)

"For these are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is but the third hour of the day. But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel;" (Acts 2: 15-16)

"This Jesus hath God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses. Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, He hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear." (Acts 2:32-33)

(V) - SALVATION AND DIVINE HEALING

"And it shall come to pass that whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." (Acts 2:17) "And the same day there were added unto them about 3000 souls." (Acts 2:41)

"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. 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. And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation."

"Then they that gladly received his word were baptized; and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls. And they continued steadfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers."

"And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and signs were done by the apostles. And all that believed were together, and had all things common; And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need."

"And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking of bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart, Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved."

"But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon Him; and with His stripes we are healed." (Isaiah 53:5)

"When the even was come, they brought unto Him many that were possessed with devils: and He cast out the spirits with His word, and healed all that were sick: That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses." (Matthew 8:16-17)

God says in His Word, "Call upon Me in the day of trouble and I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify Me." ( Psalm 50:15)

GOD IS NEVER LATE. HE IS NOT TOO BUSY TO ANSWER US

God is never too busy or too tired to answer us.  God is not on vacation or sleeping.  God is not on strike, or out of business.  God is waiting for us, ready and willing to hear our prayers and to meet our every need.

We can come before Him any time of day or night. Jesus said, "Come unto Me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." (Matthew 11:28)

Hear the Word of the Lord to you, my friend: "Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the Lord, and He will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon." (Isaiah 55:7)

Again our Lord says, "Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow: though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool." (Isaiah 1:18)

The Lord's invitation to us all is "Before they call I will answer, and while they are yet speaking I will hear." (Isaiah 64:24)

God our heavenly Father is always on time. He is never late and He does not go on vacation. Our lord is always there when we need him. He is always and He never sleeps.

The Bible says, "He never slumbers nor sleeps." (Psalms 121:4)

GOD IS NOT ON STRIKE, GOD IS NOT OUT OF SORTS. 
GOD IS READY TO SET YOU FREE

God is never on strike, nor is He ever out of sorts.  Our Blessed LORD is still very much in the business of setting people free from sin, fear, sickness, disease and the power of all evil spirits.

The Bible says, "Whatsoever ye shall ask in My name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son."

"Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened."

I wish to share one final Scripture before I close this message: Jesus said, "Whatsoever things ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them." (Mark 11:24)

Please remember:  

God has not changed, God will not change and God cannot changeGOD HAS NOT CHANGED, will not change and cannot change.
God has not lied, God will not lie, He cannot lie. You can trust His Word to you, and God cannot changeGOD HAS NOT LIED, cannot lie, will not lie.  You can trust His Word to you

All about Christ, who Jesus of Nazareth was, why Jesus ws incarnated, Jesus is our Intercessor, Jesus is our advocate, Jesus is our Heavenly high priestAll About Christ:  
TRUE GOD & TRUE MAN
by Pastor Max Solbrekken, D.D

In the Book of Hebrews we learn more and more about Jesus of Nazareth: who Jesus of Nazareth was; why Jesus was incarnated; why Jesus suffered His victory over Satan and the kingdom of Darkness; Jesus of Nazareth's ongoing work on His Father's right hand as our Intercessor, Advocate and Heavenly high Priest!

St. Paul writes: "God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spoke unto the fathers by the prophets, hath in these last days spoken unto us by His Son, Whom He hath appointed heir of all things, by Whom also He made the worlds;

"Who being the brightness of His glory, and the express image of His Person, and upholding all things by the Word of his power, when He had by Himself PURGED our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on High; Being made so much better than the angels, as He hath by INHERITANCE obtained a more excellent name than they."

"For unto which of the angels said He at any time, Thou art My Son, this day have I begotten Thee?  And again, when He bringeth in the First Begotten into the world, He saith: And let all the angels of God WORSHIP Him.  But unto the Son He saith, Thy throne, O God, is forever and ever: a scepter of righteousness is the scepter of Thy Kingdom.

"Thou hast loved righteousness, and hateth iniquity; therefore God, even Thy God, hath anointed Thee with the oil of gladness above Thy fellows.  And, Thou, LORD, in the beginning hath laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of Thine hands: They shall perish: but Thou remainest; and they shall was old as doth a garment;

"And as a vesture shalt Thou fold them up, and they shall be changed; but Thou art the same, and Thy years shall not fail.  But to which of the angels said He at any time, Sit on My Right Hand, until I make Thine enemies Thy footstool?  Are they not all minstering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?" (Hebrews 1:1-14)

who Jesus of Nazareth was, why Jesus ws incarnated, Jesus is our Intercessor, Jesus is our advocate, Jesus is our Heavenly high priestJESUS IS THE SECOND PERSON OF THE TRIUNE GOD!

Jesus Christ is the Divine, Uncreated Second Person of the Triune God. He is Creator, Sustainer, Liberator, Saviour and Healer of all who call upon Him in sincerity, humility, faith and truth. He is the Final Word of God given to mankind. He is the First Cause of Creation, having created all things. He is the Sustainer of His creative works and keeps His universe operating perfectly. He is our Saviour, Physician, Advocate, Intercessor and High Priest.

Through the shed BLOOD of Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit makes the Father known to us.  And we are made known to Him only through His Son Jesus Christ, Who is the Mediator between God and man!  (1 Timothy 2:3-6)

St. Paul writes that Christ Who is our Peace, has brought Jews and Gentiles together through His sacrificial death on the Cross,  "having broken down the middle wall of partition between us.  That He might reconcile both unto God in one body by the CROSS, having slain the enmity thereby:

"And came and preached PEACE to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh.  For through Him  (Jesus Christ)  we both  (Jews and Greeks)  have access by one Spirit  (Holy Spirit)  unto the Father."  (Ephesians 2:14,16-18).

This Scripture proves the  VALIDITY  of the Holy Spirit as a Person, and the  TRUTH  of the Triune God; God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit! These three are ONE! Blessed be His Name forever and ever. Amen.

Jesus said:  "No man knoweth the Father but the Son and whosoever He will reveal Him unto."  (Matthew 11:27);"The Father loveth the Son and hath given all things into His hands."  (John 3:36). Thank God, we are in His hands!

The Bible states:  "Giving thanks unto the Father, Who has made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in  LIGHT: Who hath delivered us from the power of Darkness and hath translated us into the Kingdom of His dear  SON: In Whom we have  REDEMPTION  through His BLOOD, even the forgiveness of sins."  (Colossians 2:12-14)

St. Paul warns: "Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the traditions of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.  For in Him (Jesus Christ) dwelleth all the fullness of the GODHEAD bodily. And ye are complete in Him, which is the head of all principality and power." (Colossians 1:9,10)

This the Gospel of Christ:  "Buried with Him in Baptism, wherein also ye are risen with Him through the faith of the operation of God, Who hath RAISED Him from the dead. And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh hath He quickened together with Him, having forgiven you all trespasses:

"Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way,  NAILING  it to His Cross. And having spoiled principalities and powers, He made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it."  (Colossians 2:12-15)'

Coming to Christ, who Jesus of Nazareth was, why Jesus ws incarnated, Jesus is our Intercessor, Jesus is our advocate, Jesus is our Heavenly high priest1.  COMING TO CHRIST!

A miner lay dying alone in a shack in the hills of California during the Gold Rush. A wonderful Christian lady came to visit him. He was at the point of death as she read John 3: 16 from the New Testament: "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."

Suddenly, the dying man opened his eyes and in a weak voice asked, "Is that in the Bible?" She answered, "Yes, it is in the Bible." He asked: "Who is He speaking to? Is He speaking to me?" The lady answered: "Yes. He is speaking to you." Weakly the man asked: "Did He say anything else?" She said: "Yes. He said, unto them who receive Him, He gives the power to have eternal life."

The dying man said: "I receive Him. I'm satisfied." Then, he closed his eyes as the angels came and carried him Home to JESUS!

Our Lord said:  "Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool."  (Isaiah 1:18)

JESUS stated:  "Come unto Me all ye who labour and are heavy laden and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you, and learn of God; for I am meek and lowly in heart; and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For My yoke is easy, and My burden is light."  (Matthew 11:28, 29)

"Ye are from beneath; I am from Above: ye are of the world; I am not of this world. I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am He, ye shall die in your sins."  (John 8:23, 24)

Our Lord declared: "Ye shall know the truth, and the TRUTH  shall make you  FREE. If the Son therefore shall make you FREE, ye shall be free indeed." (John 8: 32, 36)

"All that the Father giveth Me shall come to Me, and him that cometh to Me I will in no wise cast out. For I came down from Heaven, not to do Mine own will, but the will of Him that sent Me. And this is the Father’s will which hath sent Me, that of all which He hath given Me, I should lose nothing, but should raise it up at the last day.

"And this is the will of Him that sent Me, that everyone which seeth the Son, and believeth on Him, may have EVERLASTING LIFE: and I will raise him up on the last day."  (John 6: 37-40)

"In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto Me and drink. He that believeth on Me, as the Scripture hath said, Out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. But this He spoke of the Spirit, which they that believe on Him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given, because that Jesus was not yet glorified."  (John 7:37-39)

JESUS said:  "Behold, I stand at the door and knock: if any man hear My voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him and he with Me."  (Revelation 3:20). Having purchased our eternal salvation through the shedding of His pure and precious BLOOD and rising victoriously from the dead, He is waiting NOW to receive sinners and saints into His arms of Love and Mercy!

An old Gospel Hymn, LORD I'M COMING HOME' by William J. Kirkpatrick

I’ve wandered far away from God, now I’m coming home
The paths of sin too long I’ve trod, Lord I’m coming home
Coming Home, coming home, never more to roam,
Open wide Thine arms of love, Lord I’m coming home.

I’ve tired of sin and straying Lord, now I’m coming home
I now repent in bitter tears, Lord, I’m coming home
Coming Home, coming home, never more to roam,
Open wide Thine arms of love, Lord I’m coming home

The Bible says: "Therefore being justified through FAITH, we have Peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. By Whom also we have access by Faith into this GRACE wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. But God commandeth His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." (Romans 5:1,2, 6,8)

MARTIN LUTHER was found lying under a crucifix sobbing uncontrollably, sobbing, "For me, my God, for me! (Fur mich, mien Gott, fur mich.') He had been reading Romans and suddenly realized that Jesus Christ, God's Son had died for him personally. Not just for the entire world, but for Martin Luther! This is the work of the blessed Holy Spirit, to reveal Christ to every seeking soul!

why Jesus ws incarnated, Jesus is our Intercessor, Jesus is our advocate, Jesus is our Heavenly high priest.2.  HONOURING CHRIST!

The number one prerequisite to get to the Father’s heart, is to believe that He  sent Jesus Christ to this world to save sinners. When we love His Son, the Father has pledged to love us and make His abode with us.

Jesus promised:  "He that hath My commandments, and keepeth them, He it is that loveth Me; and He that loveth Me shall be LOVED of My Father, and I will love him, and will manifest Myself to him.

"If a man love Me, He will keep My words: and My Father will love him, and We  (My Father and I) will come unto him, and make  OUR  abode  with him."  (John 14: 21, 23).  "That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureh not the Son, honoureth not the Father which hath sent Him.

"Verily, verily I say unto you, He that heareth My Word, and believeth on Him who sent Me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation, but is passed from death unto life."  (John 5:23, 24)

On a number of occasions God the Father honoured His Son, exalting Jesus of NazarethThe first was when He commanded the holy angels to worship Him.  (Heb.1: 6).The second was when He sent angels to the shepherds to herald His Birth. (Luke 2:8-14).

At His  Baptism, God the Father spoke in an audible voice, saying, "This is My Beloved Son, in Whom I am well pleased."  (Matthew 3:17). During His  Transfiguration  on the Mount, He spoke again, saying,  "This is my Beloved Son, Hear ye Him." (Luke 9:35)

St. John wrote:  "And this is the record that God hath given to us eternal life, and this  LIFE  is in His Son. He that hath the Son hath life and he that hath not the Son of God hath not Life." (1 John 5: 12)

"Who is a  LIAR, but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is Antichrist that denieth the Father and the Son. Whoso denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: but he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also." (1 John 2:22, 23)

"He came unto His own and His own received Him not and as many as received Him, gave He the power to become the sons of God, to as many as believe on His name."  (John 1:11,12)

"Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, Who being in the form of God thought it not robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no reputation and took upon Him the form of  a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: and being found in fashion as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.

"Wherefore, God also has highly EXALTED HIM, and given Him a name which is above every name:  That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in Heaven, and  things in earth, and of things under the earth; and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the Glory of God the Father." (Philippians 2: 5-11)

Andre Crouch wrote the song, 'Oh, it is Jesus. Yes, it is Jesus in My Soul'.

Oh, it is Jesus, Yes it is Jesus, Oh, it Jesus in my soul
For I have touched the hem of His Garment, and His blood has made me whole.

I tried all that I could, seemed like nothing did me any good.
Then I heard Jesus, He was passing by, and I decided to give Him a try.

Oh, it is Jesus, Yes it is Jesus.
Oh, it Jesus in my soul
, For I have touched the hem of His Garment,
And His blood has made me whole

Put your trust in Christ, who Jesus of Nazareth was, why Jesus ws incarnated, Jesus is our Intercessor, Jesus is our advocate, Jesus is our Heavenly high priest3.   TRUSTING CHRIST

What does it mean to TRUST in Jesus? When a sinner has fallen at the feet   of  Jesus Christ in repentance and heard Him say: "Neither do I condemn thee, go and sin no more" or "Go in peace, thy faith hath made thee whole",  condemnation and guilt must leave!

All fear is gone, and like Philip, having seen the nail prints in His hands and the wound in His side, we fall down before Him crying:  "My Lord and My God."  (John 20: 26-28). When we call Him Lord, we are saying:  "You are my Master, I trust You and I want to serve You."  When we call Him God, we are saying:  "You are my God, therefore I worship you!"

All doubt has vanished and we no longer trust in ourselves for FORGIVENESS or HEALING, but we TRUST only in His merit for life eternal, liberty and freedom. His Word becomes a reality:  "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast."  (Ephesians 2: 8, 9)

It is easy to trust a man's word when you know the reliability of the man! Our trust is in CHRIST JESUS, the Author and Finisher (perfector) of our FAITH, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down on the right hand of the Throne of God." (Hebrews 2:2)

The BIBLE states: For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour, Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. For there is ONE God, and ONE Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus; Who gave Himself, a Ransom for all, to be testified in due time." (1 Timothy 2: 3-6)

"For when we were yet without strength (hopeless), in due time Christ died for the ungodly. But God commendeth His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him." (Romans 5:6,8,9)

"That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God 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)

THE TRUTH & ONLY THE TRUTH!

Herein lies the Truth of the whole matter! Only those who believe that Jesus of Nazareth was God the Son from eternity - God incarnate – but humbled Himself and was made in the likeness of human flesh so that He could die as God's Paschal Lamb for the sins of the world and rise again from the dead, can be SAVED.

All others who refuse God's provision of salvation, trusting only in the lying words of false prophets and their own goodness will be LOST. Period!

St. John declares: "If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is Greater: for this is the witness of God which He testified of His SON. He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth NOT hath made Him a LIAR; because he believeth not the Record that God gave of His Son. And this is the Record that God hath given to us Eternal Life and this Life is in His Son.

"He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. These things have I written to you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may KNOW that ye have Eternal Life, and that ye may BELIEVE on the name of the Son of God.

"And this the confidence that we have in Him, that, if we ask anything according to His will, He hear us: And if we KNOW that He hear us, whatsoever we ASK, we KNOW that we have the petitions that we desired of Him." (1 John 5:9-15)

Jesus said:  "Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in Me. I am the Way, the TRUTH and the Life. No man cometh unto the Father but by Me."  (John 14:1,6).

The BIBLE states:  "Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths." (Proverbs 3:5,6);  "Now the God of Hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope through the power of the Holy Ghost."  (Romans 15: 13)

"TRUST in the Lord, and do good. Delight thyself also in the Lord; and He shall give thee the desires of thine heart; Commit thy way unto the Lord;  TRUST  also in Him; and He will bring it to pass. Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for Him."  (Psalms 37:3-7).

Louisa M.R. Stead wrote the marvelous old Gospel Hymn 'TIS SO SWEET TO TRUST IN JESUS':

Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him, how I’ve proved Him oer and oer
Jesus, Jesus, Precious Jesus, O for grace to trust Him more

Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus. Just to take Him at His Word
Just in simple faith to trust Him,  And to know, Thus saith the Lord

I’m so glad I’ve learned to trust Him, Precious Jesus, Saviour, Friend
And to Know He’ll never leave us, He’ll be with us to the end

Jesus, Jesus, How I trust Him, How I’ve proved Him oer and oer
Jesus, Jesus, Precious Jesus,  O for grace to trust Him more

why Jesus ws incarnated, Jesus is our Intercessor, Jesus is our advocate, Jesus is our Heavenly high priest. Putting your trust in Chris4.  KNOWING CHRIST!

St. Paul declared: "Yea, doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the  excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for Whom I have suffered the loss of all  things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ.

"And be found in Him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the Faith of Christ, the Righteousness which is of God by  FAITH.  That I may  KNOW  Him and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being made conformable unto His death."  (Philippians 3: 8-10)

"For the Kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace,  and joy in the Holy Ghost. For he that in these things serveth Christ is acceptable to God, and approved of men. Let us therefore FOLLOW after the things which make for PEACE and the things wherewith one may edify another."  (Romans 14: 17-19)

In His High Priestly Prayer Jesus said:  "And this is Life Eternal that they may  KNOW  Thee, the Only True God, and Jesus Christ which Thou hast sent."  (John 17:3).

Hosea  paints us the prophetic picture of Jesus Christ the Coming Messiah: "Then shall we KNOW, if we follow on to KNOW the Lord: His going forth is prepared as the morning; and He shall come unto us as rain, as the latter and the former rain on the earth." (Hosea 6: 3).

"And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may  KNOW  Him that is True, and we are in Him that is True, even in His Son Jesus Christ. This is True God, and Eternal Life."  (1 John 5:20)

"These words spoke Jesus, and lifted up His eyes to Heaven, and said, Father the hour is come: glorify Thy Son, that Thy Son may also glorify Thee. As Thou hast given Him power over all flesh, that He should give ETERNAL LIFE unto as many as Thou hast given Him.

"And this is Life Eternal, that they might Know Thee the Only TRUE God, and Jesus Christ, which Thou hast sent." (John 17:1-3).

Anna W. Waterman wrote, 'Yes, I Know I Surely Know':

Come ye sinners, lost and lonely, Jesus' blood can make you free.
For he saved the worst among you, when He saved a wretch like me

And I know, yes, I know, Jesus' blood can make the vilest sinner clean.
and I know, yes, i know, Jesus' blood can make the vilest sinner clean.

To the faint He giveth power, through the mountains makes a away
Findeth water in the desert, turns the night to golden day.

In temptation He is near thee, holds the powers of Hell at bay.
Guides you to the path of safety, gives you grace for every day.
Jesus' blood can make the vilest sinner clean.

Importance of following Christ. Why Jesus was incarnated, Jesus is our Intercessor, Jesus is our advocate, Jesus is our Heavenly high priest. Putting your trust in Chris5.  FOLLOWING CHRIST!

Jesus called four fishermen to follow Him. Immediately, they left their Commercial Business to join His band.  Peter, Andrew, James and John heard the Master’s call:  "Follow Me and I will make you fishers of men." (Matt.4: 19).  Mark’s Gospel tells us the process in becoming genuine fishers of men. Jesus trains us for this important work. He said:  "Come ye after Me and I will make you to BECOME  fishers of men." (Mark 1:17).

The  Rich Young Ruler sadly rejected Christ’s offer: "Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, Go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in Heaven: and come and FOLLOW Me.  And when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful: for he had great possessions." (Matthew 19:21)

Oh, what a poor choice he made. He chose riches and wealth over being a follower of Jesus and a disciple of Christ; and possibly even Heaven over Hell. Riches and money will pass away, but God’s Kingdom will never pass away!

JAN CALVIN stated:  "I gave up all for Christ and what have I found, I have found everything in Christ."  About JONATHON EDWARDS, it was said: "When he found his own soul needed Jesus Christ, it became a passion with him to take Jesus Christ to every soul."

HUDSON TAYLOR said:  "We are asked to do an impossible task, lest we work with Him Who can do the impossible." (‘Go Forward on your Knees’).

On a plaque in a church seating 1,000 people in the New Hebrides Island Aneytim in the South Pacific, are these words: "When John Geddie landed in 1849 there were NO Christians here, but when returned home in 1877 there were NO Heathen."

Ten years before Geddie’s arrival, Presbyterian missionaries,  John Williams  and  James Harris had been killed and eaten by cannibals in Ebromanga. Altogether three Canadian missionaries were killed by cannibals. JOHN GEDDIE took up the challenge and won them all to Christ within 28 years. What a Victory!

C.T.STUDD stated:  "Some people want to live near to the Church and Chapel bell, but I want to set up a rescue shop within a yard of Hell. Let the Victors when they come, when the Forts of folly fall, find the body near the wall."

RICHARD BAXTER said:  "I preach like a dying man to dying men. Every time I preach, I preach as if it were the last time I would preach."

DR. DAVID LIVINGSTONE wrote:  "For my own part, I have never ceased to rejoice that God has appointed me to such an office. People talk of the sacrifices I have made in spending so much of my time in Africa. Can that be called a sacrifice which is simply paid back of a small part of a great debt owing to our God, which can never repay? Is that a sacrifice which brings its own best reward in healthful activity, the consciousness of doing good, peace of mind, and a bright hope of a glorious destiny hereafter?

"Away with such a word, in such a view, and with such a thought! It is emphatically not a sacrifice. Say rather it is a privilege. Anxiety, sickness, suffering or danger now and then with a foregoing of the common conveniences and charities of this life, may make us pause, and cause the spirit to waver and sink, but let this be for only a moment. All these are nothing compared with the glory which shall hereafter be revealed in and for us.

"I never made a sacrifice. Of this we ought not to talk when we remember the GREAT SACRIFICE  which He made when He left His Father's Throne on High, to give Himself for us."

Dr. Livingstone stated,  "I march to the Drumbeat of Heaven."  When his wife Mary passed away, he buried with his own hands. He wrote that he felt like something of himself had died, when she left him. When the explorer, Dr. Stanley, finally found him, Dr. Livingstone refused to leave, saying:"I cannot leave. My heart belongs to Africa."  The next time Stanley found him, he was on his knees, with his face on an open Bible. He was dead! -  (Taken from 'The Call To Be a Missionary'.)

Importance of following Christ.  Importance of praying to Jesus.  Jesus is our Intercessor, Jesus is our advocate, Jesus is our Heavenly high priest. Putting your trust in Chris6.  PRAYING TO CHRIST!

Jesus said:  "Let not your heart be troubled. Ye believe in God, believe also in Me."  (John 14:1). "Jesus said unto him. I am the Way, the Truth and the Life. No man cometh unto the Father but by Me.  Believest thou not that I am in the Father and the Father in Me?  The words that I speak unto you, I speak not of Myself; but the Father that dwelleth in Me, He doeth the works.

"And whatsoever ye shall ask in My name, that will I do that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ASK anything in My name, I will  DO  it. At that day ye shall know that I am in the Father and the Father in Me."  (John 14: 10-14)

Many people in the Bible accounts, prayed directly to Jesus and He forgave and healed them. They knew that He was the Messiah, the Son of God and therefore divine.  The  lepers, paralytics, blind, tormented, sinful and dying  reached out to Him calling Him the Son of David, meaning Messiah, the Son of God!

When he was sinking, Peter cried out: "Master save me I perish."  Our Lord leaped over  the boisterous waves and rescued him (Matthew 14:30). The thief on the cross who called out to Him,  "Lord, remember me when thou comest into Thy Kingdom" was heard and granted Eternal Life! (Luke 23: 42). Saul of Tarsus cried out from his prostate position on the Damascus Road, "Who art Thou, Lord", and "What wilt Thou have me to do?" (Acts 9: 5)

St. Paul writes: "Unto the Church of God which is in Corinth, to them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that in every place call upon the name of the Lord Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour, both theirs and ours."  (1 Corinthians 1:2)

The Gospel Hymn, 'HE TOUCHED ME' is an anointed Worship song:

Shackled by a heavy burden, 'Neath a load of guilt and shame
Then the hand of Jesus touched me, now I am no longer the same.

He touched me, oh He touched me, And oh the joy that floods my soul
Something happened and now I know, He touched me and made me whole.

Since I met the blessed Saviour, Since He cleansed and made me whole
I will never cease to praise Him, I'll shout it while eternity rolls.

He touched me, oh He touched me, And oh the joy that floods my soul
Something happened and now I know He touched me and made me whole...

Importance of following Christ.  Importance of worshipping Christ. Importance of praying to Jesus.  Jesus is our Intercessor, Jesus is our advocate, Jesus is our Heavenly high priest. Putting your trust in Chris7.  WORSHIPPING CHRIST!

"And after eight days again His disciples were within, and Thomas with them: then came Jesus, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, Peace be unto you. Then saith He to Thomas, reach hither thy finger, and behold My hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into My side: and be not faithless, but believing.  (John 20: 27).

Since Jesus Christ is God we must worship Him as God!  Thomas had refused to believe that Christ had risen from the dead, until he saw the nail-prints in His hands and the wound in His side: "And Thomas answered and said unto Him, My Lord and my God."  (John 20:28)

There are numerous accounts in the Word of God to verify that Jesus Christ - True God from eternity and True man through His virgin birth – accepted worship as God, together with the Father and the Holy Spirit!

St. John calls Him the Word of God, the True Light, the Only Begotten of the Father full of Grace and Truth (John 1:1-18), and John the Baptist declared Him to be the Lamb of God which taketh away the sins of the world. (John 1:19)

The Word of God states:  "God…hath in these last days spoken unto us By His  SON, Whom He hath appointed heir of all things, of Whom also He made the worlds; Who being the brightness of His glory, and the express image of His Person, and upholding all things by the Word of His power, when He had by  HIMSELF  purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on High." (Hebrews 1:1-3)

God the Father called Him,  My Beloved Son  in Whom I am well pleased:  "Thou art My Son, this day have I begotten thee; I will be to a Father, and He shall be to Me a Son. And let all the angels  WORSHIP  Him." (Hebrews 1:5, 6)

GOD CALLS JESUS LORD AND GOD!

"But unto the Son He saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a scepter of righteousness is the scepter of Thy Kingdom. Thou hast loved righteousness and hated iniquity; therefore God, even Thy God, hath anointed Thee with the oil of gladness above Thy fellows.

"And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the work of Thine hands. They shall perish, but Thou remainest; and they all shall wax old as doth a garment.

"And as a vesture shalt Thou fold them up, and they shall be changed: but Thou art the SAME, and Thy years shall not fail. But to which of the angels said He at any time, Sit on My Right Hand, until I make Thine enemies Thy footstool?"  (Hebrews 1:10-13)

JESUS said:  "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. And when I saw Him, I fell at his feet as dead. And He laid His right hand upon me, saying unto me. Fear not. I am the First and the Last: I am He that liveth and was dead: and behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen: and have the Keys of hell and of Death." (Revelation 1:8,17,18)

In 1863, William P. Mackay wrote the powerful hymn,  ‘We Praise Thee O God’

We praise Thee, O God, For the Son of Thy love,
For Jesus Who died and is now gone above..

Hallelujah! Thine the glory. Hallelujah! Amen.
Hallelujah! Thine the glory. Revive us again.

We praise Thee, O God, For Thy Spirit of light,
Who hath shown us our Savior, And scattered our night.

All glory and praise, to the Lamb that was slain,
Who hath borne all our sins and hath cleansed every stain.

Hallelujah! Thine the glory. Hallelujah! Amen.
Hallelujah! Thine the glory. Revive us again.

Revive us again; Fill each heart with Thy love;
May each soul be rekindled with fire from above.

Hallelujah! Thine the glory. Hallelujah! Amen.
Hallelujah! Thine the glory. Revive us again.

Importance of living for Christ. Importance of following Christ.  Importance of worshipping Christ. Importance of praying to Jesus.  Jesus is our Intercessor, Jesus is our advocate,  Putting your trust in Chris8.  LIVING FOR CHRIST

St. Paul stated:  "For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.   For if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labour; yet what I choose I do not know. I am in a straight betwixt two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better." (Philippians 1:21-23)

The great Apostle met Jesus Christ in a blinding light on the Damascus Road and his life was changed. He was tutored by our Lord during his two year stay in Arabia. On several occasions he had been visited personally by the resurrected Christ and was even taken to Heaven and heard words which he was forbidden to speak.

It is little wonder then that he longed to go to be with Christ!  St. Paul knew, however, that his presence was of vital importance among the Churches he had founded in the Gentile world. He knew his calling and the work Jesus had outlined for him to fulfill.

Writing to the Galatians Church, he stated:  "I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, Who loved me, and gave Himself for me." (Galatians 2:20)

Here is solid Bible teaching on how to please God in Holy Living:  "If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those  things which are Above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.

"Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. For ye are dead, and your life is HID with Christ in God. When Christ, Who is our LIFE, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with Him in glory."(Col.3: 1-3)

In my message, ‘What is a Christian?’,  I maintain that a Christian is Christ living out His life through us. In John’s Gospel our Lord makes it clear that His desire is to dwell within us through the Blessed Holy Spirit!

A CHRISTIAN is a heart  through which Christ loves, forgives and pardons, a mind through which Christ thinks and understands, a voice  through which Christ pours out His invitation and warning to the sinful and hurting, hands through which Christ heals the sick and suffering, eyes through which Christ sees the poor, lonely and struggling, ears  that hear the cries of those who have been left behind, the disadvantaged, the backslider, feet  that carry Christ’s Gospel of Mercy and Compassion to a world of lost, sinning and wounded people. Amen.

He said:  "If ye abide in Me and My Words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will and it shall be done unto you."  (John 15: 7).  In His High Priestly prayer, He articulated the same message: "He is in His father, we are in Him, and He is in us:

"That they all may be one: as Thou, Father, art in Me, and I in Thee, that they also may be one in  US: that the world may believe that Thou hast sent Me."

"And the glory which Thou gavest Me I have given them: that they may be one, even as  WE  are one. I in them, and Thou in Me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that Thou hast sent Me, and hast loved them, as Thou hast loved Me."  (John 17: 21-23)

The Story behind the Gospel Hymn, ‘I have Decided to Follow Jesus’: About 150 years ago missionaries stirred by the Welsh Revival went to India. A Welsh missionary brought a man and his family to Christ in Assam. A number of his neighbours received Jesus Christ through their witness. The Tribal Chief called the village together. He demanded that the kman and his family publicly recant their belief in Jesus Christ.

The man refused and the Chief was enraged, saying that they would all be killed if he did not give up his faith in Jesus Christ. He was unmoved and began to sing: "I have decided to follow Jesus, I have decided to follow Jesus. I have decided to follow Jesus, No turning back. No turning back. The chief signaled his archers and the man's two sons were arrowed. The Chief asked him if he would change his position.

With his two sons dying on the ground, the man continued to sing: "If none go with me still I will follow; If none go with me still I will follow. If none go with me still I will follow. No turning back, No turning back." The Chief signaled the archers and the man's wife was killed. Again the Chief asked the man to reject Jesus Christ. He sang these words as his final reply: "The Cross before me, the World behind me; the Cross before me, the World behind me; The Cross before me, the World behind me. No turning back, No turning back."

Again, arrows found its target and Christ's true believers all lay dead on the ground. The Chief couldn't understand why a man would give his life and those of his family for a belief in a man who had died so many years ago in a land so far away. There must be something special about such a faith. He decided that he would taste that faith for himself and publicly made that confession and when he did the entire village of Assam was converted to Christ.

As a little boy, I sang that song in the Evangelical Lutheran Church and can remember those days when our Church still believed the Gospel of Christ and the Holy Bible as Gods Word.

Walking with Christ. Importance of living for Christ. Importance of following Christ.  Importance of worshipping Christ. Importance of praying to Jesus.  Jesus is our Intercessor, Jesus is our advocate,  Putting your trust in Chris9. WALKING WITH CHRIST

St. Peter wrote: "For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should FOLLOW HIS STEPS. (1 Peter 2:21)

JESUS said: "Come unto Me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest Take My yoke upon you and learn of Me: for I am lowly and meek in heart and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light." (Matthew 11:28-30)

St. John declared: "But if we say we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth. But if we WALK in the Light as He is in the Light, we have fellowship one with another, and the BLOOD of Jesus Christ cleanseth us from all sin." (1 John 1:6,7)

"And hereby we do know Him, if we keep His commandments. He that sayeth, I know Him, and keepeth not His commandments, is a LIAR, and the TRUTH is not in him. But whoso keepeth His Word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in Him. He that sayeth he abideth in Him ought himself also WALK, even as He walked." (1 John 2:4-6)

St. Paul stated: "As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so WALK ye in him: Rooted and built up in Him, established in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding thereunto with thanksgiving. Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy or vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. For in Him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. And ye are complete in Him, Which is the Head of all principality and power." (Colossians 2:6-10)

The great Apostle said: "Wherefore I beseech you, be ye followers of me. Follow me as I follow Christ." (1 Corinthians 4:16); "Be ye followers of Me even as I also am of Christ." (1 Corinthians 11:1)

"Brethren, be followers together of me, and MARK them which WALK so as ye have us for an example. For many WALK, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ: Whose end is destruction, whose god is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things." (Philippians 3:17-19)

WHAT OUR PRAYER SHOULD BE!

My Prayer: "Let me walk with you Jesus. I want to feel your strong hand in mine. I need your powerful arms around me. Breathe your life into me, Lord Jesus; into my spirit, soul and body. 

Fill my mind with your thoughts. Breathe upon me, O' breath of God. Heal my inner man as well as my outer man. Grant unto me the gifts of the Holy Spirit. Open my spiritual eyes to the needs of others and my spiritual ears to the cries of the poor, lonely, fearful and sick and suffering. 

Give me the anointing and Holy Spirit unction to pray the prayer of faith for all who suffer, for Thy honour and glory and the advancement of Thy Kingdom. Help me always to be a stepping stone instead of a stumbling block. 

Help me always to believe instead of doubt, to be kind instead of unkind, to be caring instead uncaring, to be a help instead of a hindrance, to be a part of the building crew instead of the wrecking crew. 

O' God , give me grace to always lift the heavy end of the load when helping my neighbour and put the best construction on all that he does. If I cannot, help me to bite my tongue and say nothing! In Jesus' holy and precious Name. Amen.

Suffering for Christ, Walking with Christ. Importance of living for Christ. Importance of following Christ.  Importance of worshipping Christ. Importance of praying to Jesus.  Jesus is our Intercessor, Jesus is our advocate,  Putting your trust in Chris10. SUFFERING FOR CHRIST

Like St. Paul, we should all live crucified lives, wholly given over to our Lord and His Gospel. He declared:  "But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by Whom the world is crucified to me, and I am crucified to the world." (Galatians 6:14)

"From henceforth let no man trouble me: for I bear in my body the Marks of the Lord Jesus Christ."  (Galatians 6:17).

The horrible persecutions that St. Paul suffered for his Lord had marked his body with many scars from the beatings, scourging and stoning  he had endured from the Jews and the Roman Authorities. No one could fault his love for Jesus Christ and His loyalty to the church!  He was saying,  "If you doubt  my beliefs, check out the ugly marks on my battered body."

Like St. Paul, the great soul winner, prayer warrior and preacher  ROBERT MURRAY McCHENE said:  "I will never listen to a man who has not sat, where I have sat."

Jesus said: "These things I have spoken unto you, that in Me ye might have Peace. In the world ye shall have TRIBULATION: but be of good cheer: I have overcome the world." (John 16:33)

St. Paul says:  "Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my Gospel. Wherein I suffer as an evil doer, even unto BONDS, but the Word of God is not bound.  "Therefore I endure all things for the elect’s sake that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory."

"It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with Him, we shall also live with Him. If we  SUFFER, we shall also reign with Him: if we deny Him, He also will deny us: If we believe not, yet He abideth faithful: He cannot deny Himself."  (2 Timothy 2:8-13)

Our Lord and Saviour warned: "Whosever will come after Me, Let him deny himself, and take up his cross and follow Me. For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever shall lose his life for My sake and the Gospel’s, the same shall save it."

"For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me and of My words in this adulterous and sinful generation: of him also shall the Son of man be ashamed, when He cometh in the glory of His Father with the Holy angels."  (Mark 8: 34-38).  

A Great Hymn, ‘Where He leads Me I will Follow’:

I can hear my Savior calling, I can hear my Savior calling,
I can hear my Savior calling, 
Take thy cross and follow, follow me.

Where he leads me I will follow, where he leads me I will follow,
where he leads me I will follow; I'll go with him, with him all the way.

I'll go with him through the garden, I'll go with him through the garden,
I'll go with him through the garden, I'll go with him, with him all the way.

I'll go with him through the judgment,  I'll go with him through the judgment,
I'll go with him through the judgment, I'll go with him, with him all the way.

He will give me grace and glory, He will give me grace and glory,
He will give me grace and glory, and go with me, with me all the way.

11. WAITING FOR CHRIST

"For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared unto all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;

"Looking for that Blessed Hope, and the glorious appearing of the Great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; Who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto Himself a peculiar (purchased)  people, zealous of good works." (Titus 2: 11-14)

The Return of Christ is called  "The Blessed Hope"  and it is! It will be the Crowning Day for all of us who believe the Gospel and especially for those who preach the gospel.  Titucalls it,  "the Glorious  Appearing"He also  refers to Jesus Christ as the Great God  and our Saviour!

What a moment that will be, to look upon Him  Who gave Himself for us that He might Redeem us from our iniquities.  He will not come as the lowly Galilean Who walked the dusty streets and roads of Israel, or riding on a donkey into Jerusalem, or as God’s paschal Lamb hanging on the cursed tree!

He will come as the Great God to judge and to Reign. Hallelujah! He  appeared  ONCE as the Lamb of God to put away Sin by the SACRIFICE of Himself, and He shall  appear the SECOND time as the Great God and the Lord of Glory!

When Jesus of Nazareth arose from the dead, triumphant over death, hell and the devil, He ascended into Heaven carrying His own precious blood into the Holy of Holies!

The Bible says:  "Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by His own  BLOOD, He entered in  ONCE  into the Holy Place, having obtained Eternal Redemption for us. For if the blood of bulls and goats, and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling the unclean sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh;

"How much more shall the  BLOOD  of Christ Who through the Eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the Living God."  (Hebrews 9:11-14)

"For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figure of the true, but into Heaven itself,now appear in the presence of God for us: Nor yet that he should offer Himself often, as the high priest entered into the Holy Place every year with the blood of others;

"For then must He often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself. And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment.

"So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many: and unto them that look for Him shall appear the Second Time  without Sin unto Salvation."  (Heb.9: 24-28)

He came the FIRST TIME as the Saviour to bear away the sins of the world and  PUT AWAY SIN  through His sacrificial Death on the cross. When He comes the Second Time it will not be to SAVE, but to JUDGE and to REIGN forever!

St. Paul wrote:  "For from you sounded out the Word of the Lord not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith to Godward is spread abroad: so that we need not speak anything.

"For they themselves show of us what nanner of entering in we had unto you, and how ye turned to God from idols to serve the Living God: and to wait for His Son from Heaven, Whom He raised from the dead, even JESUS, which delivered us from the wrath to come." (1 Thessalonians 1:8-10)

The Gospel that St. Paul preached had brought real fruit in Thessalonica. The pagan had turned to God from the worship of idols to serve the Living God and they had prepared themselves for the Coming of Christ whom thy worshipped as Saviour and God.

He remembered their work of faith, their labour of love and their patience of Hope  in the Lord Jesus Christ. He stated:  "For our Gospel came not unto you in Word only, but also in power and in the Holy Ghost, and in much assurance." (1 Thessalonians 1:5)

This is the secret to true evangelism!  The message we articulate must not only be God’s Word, but it must be delivered in the power of the Holy Spirit and assurance!

The great Apostle had informed  them of Jesus' promise to Return for His Church when all things were fulfilled. It was a part of the Gospel message then and it still is today!  St. Peter declared:

"Repent ye therefore, and be converted that your sins may be blotted out, when then times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord. And He shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you; Whom the Heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all His holy prophets since the world began." (Acts 3:19-21)

According to this prophecy, there will be a great revival across the world prior to the Return of Jesus Christ. We believe that we are seeing that today across Latin America, Brazil, the Philippines, Africa, Eastern Europe  and believe it will as happen in Canada.

To wait for his Son’s return is to expect, earnestly desire and long for His Coming in a prayerful and joyful attitude as we continually declare His Gospel! The Word of God warns us:

"Cast not away your confidence (faith) which hath great recompence of reward. For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.  For yet a little while, and He that shall come, will come and will not tarry." (Hebrews 10:35-37)

St. John writes:  "And now, little children, Abide in Him; that when He shall APPEAR, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed at his Coming."  (1 John 2:28)

"Beloved, now are we the sons of God and it doth not yet appear what we shall be, but we know that, when He shall APPEAR, we shall be like him, for we shall see Him as He is."  (1 John 3:3)

"And when the Chief Shepherd shall APPEAR, ye shall receive a crown of Glory that fadeth not away." (1 Peter 5:4); ‘He which testifieth these things sayeth, Surely, I Come Soon. Amen, Even so, come Lord Jesus. The grace of our Lord Jesus be with you all. Amen." (Revelation 22:20, 21).

WHEN THE ROLL IS CALLED UP YONDER James M. Black, 1893

When the trumpet of the Lord shall sound, and time shall be no more,
And the morning breaks, eternal, bright and fair;
When the saved of earth shall gather over on the other shore,
And the roll is called up yonder, I’ll be there.

When the roll, is called up yon-der,
When the roll, is called up yon-der,
When the roll, is called up yon-der,
When the roll is called up yonder I’ll be there.

On that bright and cloudless morning when the dead in Christ shall rise,
And the glory of His resurrection share;
When His chosen ones shall gather to their home beyond the skies,
And the roll is called up yonder, I’ll be there.

Let us labor for the Master from the dawn till setting sun,
Let us talk of all His wondrous love and care;
Then when all of life is over, and our work on earth is done,
And the roll is called up yonder, I’ll be there.

12. REIGNING WITH CHRIST

About Christ, GEORGE W. TRUETT  stated:  "I find no fault in Him."...You can find fault in anyone else, but you can find  no fault in Jesus. Holy, harmless, undefiled, sinless: there He is! Christ is God's way to man; Christ is man's way to God. Christ is the true Jacob's ladder. By Him the penitent sinner, the believing soul, the redeemed child of God may come unto the Father and enter into the house of many mansions.

Jesus is the Word of God; His Ultimate, Final and Last Word to the world. He is the Creator of all things and therefore, the First Cause of creation. He is the fullness of the Godhead bodily and the Sustainer and the Guardian of all things. He is the Forgiver of our sins, the Healer of our sicknesses and diseases and the Finisher and Completer of our Eternal Salvation.

He is the Believer’s Merciful and Compassionate High Priest, Intercessor and Soon Coming King! All glory and praise to our Sovereign  Lord Jesus Christ Who reigns forever with our God and Father and the Blessed Holy Spirit. World without End! Amen.

The Holy Scriptures declare:  "For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of Adoption whereby we cry, Abba, Father.

"The Spirit Himself beareth witness with our spirit that we are the children of God. And if children, then heirs, heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ: if so be that we suffer with Him, that we may be also glorified together." (Romans 8:14-17); "Beloved, now are we the sons of God and it doth not yet appear what we shall be, but we know that, when He shall APPEAR, we shall be like him, for we shall see Him as He is."  (1 John 3: 3)

"It is a faithful saying; For if we be dead with Him, we shall also live with him. If we suffer with Him we shall also REIGN with Him; if we deny Him, He will also deny us. If we believe not, yet He abideth faithful: He cannot deny Himself." (2 Timothy 3: 11-13).  Amen.

'THE KING IS COMING' – Written by Bill and Gloria Gaither

The marketplace is empty, no more traffic in the street
All the builder's tools are silent, no more time to harvest wheat
Busy housewives cease their labor, in the courtroom no debate
Work on earth has been suspended as the King comes through the gate

Happy faces line the hallway, those whose lives have been redeemed
Broken homes He has mended, those from prison He has freed
Little children and the aged hand in hand stand all aglow
Who were crippled, broken, ruined, clad in garments white as snow

The King is coming, the King is coming
I just heard the trumpet sounding and soon His face I'll see
The King is coming, the King is coming
Praise God, He's coming for me

I can hear the chariots rumble, I can see the marching throng
And the flurry of God's trumpet spells the end of sin and wrong
Regal robes are now unfolded, heaven's grandstands all in place
Heaven's choir is now assembled, start to sing "Amazing Grace"


Why Jesus shed his blood for us. Power in the Blood, How the Blood of Jesus heals us. Jesus Christ, Who is Jesus Christ? Why is Jesus Christ the only way to HeavenTHERE IS POWER 
IN THE BLOOD OF JESUS
by Pastor Max Solbrekken, D.D

"He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities, the chastisement of our peace was upon Him and with His stripes we are healed." (Isaiah 53:5)

HOW TO RECEIVE TOTAL HEALING THROUGH THE BLOOD OF JESUS

The ancient prophet Isaiah set forth a graphic picture of the coming Jewish Messiah in the 53rd chapter of the book we call "The Gospel of the Old Testament."

"He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities, the chastisement of our peace was upon Him and with His stripes we are healed." (Isaiah 53:5)

We can receive total healing through the wounds of Jesus Christ - According to the prophets, the Messiah would suffer, bleed and die for His people. He would be cut off in death, but rise again in power.  He would be wounded, bruised, chastised and striped in order to purchase our salvation and bring deliverance from sin, sickness and eternal death.

And St. Peter records the glorious results of Christ's terrible sufferings as our substitute. "Who His own self bare our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by Whose stripes ye were healed." (1 Peter 2:24)

blood of Jesus, healing in the blood Christ, why is the Blood of Jesus powerfulTHE SEVEN WOUNDS OF JESUS SPELL COMPLETE REDEMPTION

Jesus Christ received seven specific wounds in His body during His week of suffering and death. The number seven in biblical terms speaks of perfection and completeness.

Wounds according to the dictionary are divisions of the soft part of the body by a mechanical force applied externally. They are classified as: contused, lacerated, penetrating, perforating and incised! Jesus Christ received each of these plus an additional two, by mutilation and falling.

Why Jesus shed his blood for us. Power in the Blood, How the Blood of Jesus heals us. Jesus Christ, Who is Jesus Christ? Why is Jesus Christ the only way to Heaven1) THE CONTUSED WOUND  - produced by a sharp instrument.

"They shall smite the Judge of Israel with a rod upon the cheek." (Micah 5:1)

St. Matthew wrote, "They smote Him with rods." (Matthew 26:67; John 18:22) (Newberry & Revised) "Then they did spit in His face and buffeted Him, and others smote Him with the palms of their hands." (Matthew 26:67)

Very definitely, Jesus suffered pain and humiliation as Roman soldiers beat Him about the face with their rods!

Others, including the servants smote Him with their hands. The rod would cut into the flesh, leaving a contused wound.

how to receive healing, healing scriptures and articles, Blood of Christ, healing through blood, 2) THE LACERATED WOUND  - produced by a tearing instrument.

The Romans used the cruel cat-of-nine tails to scourge criminals. On the end of the whip were nine pieces of leather to which were attached sharp ivory or metal balls with protruding nails. As the whip was cracked, it would tear out pieces of the flesh.

Jewish law demanded that not more than 40 lashes be administered, since often the victim would faint or even die during the scourging.

The Romans did not need to adhere to Jewish law. As a matter of fact, crucifixion was a Roman mode of execution! The Romans always scourged a condemned man before crucifying him.

Some historians and Church Fathers believe that Jesus Christ may have received many more than 30 stripes.  The more punishment a prisoner took on the whipping pole, the shorter was the guard duty for the Roman Soldiers at the scene of execution.

Since the Jewish leadership had accused Him of perverting the people, the Romans certainly had no reason to "go easy" on Him! And no doubt the tough Roman soldiers would have been happy to see Jesus squirm and cry out - especially since he had refused to talk to the Governor!

We do know that St. Paul was whipped by the Jews on five separate occasions: "Of the Jews five times received I forty stripes save one." (2 Corinthians 13:24)  Paul was not a candidate for crucifixion, by the Romans. He was prosecuted under the jurisdiction of the Jewish hierarchy.

If Jesus received 39 stripes in Pilate's Judgment Hall, that would have inflicted a total of 351 gashes on His lacerated back. If He received more than 39 stripes, the gashes would have been more numerous.

EACH WOUND HELPED TO PURCHASE OUR HEALING: SPIRITUAL, MENTAL AND PHYSICAL

The Old Testament prophet declared, "The ploughers ploughed upon My back. They made long furrows." (Psalms 129:3) Seven hundred and fifty years earlier, Isaiah had prophesied concerning the Messiah, "I gave My back to the smiters" (Isaiah  50:6)

"But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon Him; and with His stripes we are healed." (Isaiah 53:5)

St. Matthew records, "Then Pilate therefore took Jesus and scourged Him." (Matthew 27:20; John 19:1)

Prisoners who were scourged usually lost a lot of blood and sometimes fainted. Jesus suffered the agonizing and brutal scourging for us!

3) THE PENETRATING WOUND: a deep wound caused by a sharp, pointed instrument.

The crown of thorns that was pressed upon the head of Jesus caused such wounds. The Jerusalem thorn, known as the Arabian Nebulae, was 4 inches long and as sharp as a needle.  The cruel diadem containing over 100 spiculets, was driven into His head with blows from the rod.

The Bible scriptures record, "And when they had platted a crown of thorns, they put it upon His head, and a reed in His right hand: and they bowed the knee before Him, and mocked Him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews." (Matthew 27:29)

"Then came Jesus forth, wearing the crown of thorns, and the purple robe. And Pilate saith unto them, Behold the man!" (John 19:5)

It was the Governor's intention to scourge Jesus and then release him.  He had hoped the pitiful sight of a weary, weak and bloodies man would satisfy their blood lust and evoke sympathy for the prisoner.

Instead of being satisfied, they craved more blood, crying out "Away with Him, crucify Him, crucify Him!" (Matthew 27:22-23)

THORNS SPEAK OF THE ORIGINAL CURSE

Thorns speak of the original curse, "Cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life;"   "Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth unto thee..." (Geneses 3:17-18)

JESUS TOOK THE CURSE FOR US

Jesus Christ  bore the penalty for our sins, transgressions, sicknesses, diseases and pains!

St. Paul writes, "Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree."

“That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith." (Galatians 3:13-14)

In the book of Deuteronomy, Chapter 28, Moses enumerates the blessings of keeping covenant with God. He also lists the curses! The curses include sickness, disease, insanity, torments, plagues, pestilence, famine and war. The Apostle to the Gentiles states unequivocally that, "Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law." So we are free!

The Roman soldiers tried to drive Jesus insane by beating that crown of sharp Arabian Nebulae into His head. But He didn't lose His sanity but rather through this horrible experience purchased our peace and tranquility.

"And having made peace through the blood of His cross, by Him to reconcile all things unto Himself." (Colossians 1:20)

Because of the penetrating wounds He bore for us, WE HAVE PEACE!

healing through blood, how to receive healing, healing scriptureson Jesus and the Blood of Christ, 4) THE PERFORATING WOUND:  From the Latin word; "to pierce through"

A Messianic psalm stated, "They pierced My hands and My feet" (Psalms 22:16) At the time of David's prophecy, he knew nothing of crucifixion, for the Hebrew method of capitol punishment was stoning!

The prophet Zechariah also foretold of the Messiah's death by crucifixion. "And one shall say unto Him, What are these wounds in Thine hands? Then shall He answer, Those with which I was wounded in the house of My friends." (Zechariah 13:6)

By the time Jesus was born, the Romans had conquered Palestine and crucifixion had become the mode of execution. The New Testament records: "And when they were come... to Calvary, there they crucified Jesus."  (Luke 23:33; John 19:16-18)

The Bible says, "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)

Jesus Christ suffered the torments, agony, pain and death of the most horrible of all deaths - The Death of Crucifixion! He suffered for us. He bled for us. He died for us! And He arose again from the dead, for us!

 how to receive healing, Blood of Christ, healing through blood, healing scriptures5) THE INCISED WOUND: a cut produced by a sharp edged instrument:

"But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced His side, and forthwith came there out blood and water." (John 19:34)

As the Sabbath was approaching the soldiers helped speed up the expiration of the victims by smashing their thigh bones, thus allowing asphyxiation. When the Roman soldier came to Jesus, he noticed that He was already dead. The soldier then went on to the thief on Jesus' other side and with his large axe, smashed the femur bone (thigh bone) causing a quicker death.

In order to verify Jesus' death, the soldier then plunged his spear into the left side of Jesus!

This fulfilled the scripture, "They shall look upon Him Whom they have pierced." (Zechariah 12:10) So large was the wound that after the resurrection, Thomas "the doubter" was invited to thrust his hand into that wound.

"Then saith He to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold My hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into My side: and be not faithless, but believing."  (John 20:27)

St. John was standing near the cross and noticed blood and water coming out of His side.  The pericardium is a closed sac encasing the heart, lubricated by a small amount of fluid to facilitate the motion of the heart.

Mallory & Wright's pathological technique answers the question, "How could John have seen such a small amount of water flow out of the wound? The normal amount (of pericardial fluid) is about a teaspoon, but it may be increased to 100 c.c. (24 teaspoonfuls) where death agony is prolonged."

Another miracle was that contrary to nature, blood flowed from a dead man, proving that the blood of Jesus did not die but is efficacious even today !

"There is a fountain filled with blood, Drawn from Emmanuel's veins,
And sinners plunge beneath the flood, Lose all their guilty stains."

The blood and water which St. John saw coming out of the side of Christ may also have been the physiological aspect of death.

Medical science teaches that, "Blood in a cadaver readily separates into clear serum and red blood cells, thus certifying that the person is clinically dead." It could be that both of these things were happening at once. Either way, it proves that the death of Jesus was a reality and that there is life through His precious blood!

The Bible says, "Without the shedding of blood there is no remission of sins." (Leviticus 17:11,14)

"It is the blood that maketh atonement for the soul." (Hebrews 9:22) "And the blood of Jesus Christ, His Son, cleanseth us from all sins." (1 John 1:7)

THE BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST, SHED FOR US ALL ON GOLGOTHA, HAS PURCHASED OUR SALVATION

I)  WE RECEIVE FORGIVENESS OF OUR SINS THROUGH HIS BLOOD

"In Whom we have redemption through His blood, even THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS, according to the riches of His grace." (Ephesians 1:7)

(II) WE RECEIVE REDEMPTION THROUGH HIS BLOOD

"Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers;"

"But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:" (1 Peter 1:18-19)

"Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which He hath purchased with His own blood."  (Acts 20:28)

(III)  WE RECEIVE CLEANSING FROM SIN THROUGH HIS BLOOD

"I gave My cheeks to them that plucked out the hair." (Isaiah 50:6)

Not only did they slap and spit upon His face but they yanked out His beard causing the wounds of mutilation. Can you imagine the awful pain, as cruel Roman soldiers pulled out His beard! The blood flowed down upon Christ's chest as cruel tormentors mutilated His face by tearing out handfuls of His beard.

He did it for us, because by "His Sore" (original Hebrew) we are healed! He was "one sore" from head to toe, by the time He had undergone the full mistreatment which the Roman soldiers heaped upon Him! He suffered more than any man and He did it all for us - to purchase our salvation.

Blood of Christ, healing through blood, how to receive healing, healing scriptures7) WOUNDS BY FALLING:

They laid the rugged cross upon His lacerated, bleeding back and forced Jesus to carry His own cross, as was the custom for condemned criminals. Due to loss of blood because of the scourging, He was unable to do so.

As He stumbled and fell, His body received more bruises and sores, and He suffered more pain, for us.

Historians claim, that after His striping in Pilate's Judgment Hall, Jesus was subjected to a heavy wooden cross laid upon His raw, bleeding back.

Apparently, the cross bar was tied to His wrists and the stock to His left ankle. When He stumbled and fell, He had no way to protect Himself, so His body was further bruised and battered! And Roman soldiers then forced a stranger, Simon of Cyrene to bear His cross up Calvary's hill.

"And He bearing His cross went forth to the place of a skull..." (John 19:17) "And as they led Him away they laid hold upon one Simon, a Cyrenian, coming out of the country, and on him they laid the cross, that he might bear it after Jesus." (Luke 23:26) (Mark 15:21)

Apparently that event caused such an impact upon the Cyrenian that he became a convert to Christ. And it appears that his two sons also entered the Ministry and preached the gospel of Christ after His resurrection.

CHRIST WAS WOUNDED FROM HEAD TO FOOT WITH SEVEN WOUNDS IN ORDER TO BRING US HEALING

And St. Matthew stated, "When the even was come, they brought unto Him many that were possessed with devils: and He cast out the spirits with His word, and healed all that were sick:"

"That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Easias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses." (Matthew 8:16-17)

"It is no wonder, St. Thomas, upon his encounter with the risen Christ declared, "My Lord and my God." (Jn.20:28)

I pray you will receive total healing through the wounds and blood that Jesus Christ shed for you.

"Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in Me: or else believe Me for the very works' sake. Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on Me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto My Father. And whatsoever ye shall ask in My name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ask any thing in My name, I will do it." (John 14:11-14)

Amen.


Jesus is the great Deliverer!  How to get to Heaven, Bible scriptures on Jesus Christ, heaven, death of Jesus. Why is Christ the only way to get to heaven? JESUS CHRIST
IS THE 
GREAT DELIVERER

by Pastor Max Solbrekken, D.D

Jesus said, "Come unto Me all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." (Matthew 11:28)

Right from the Garden of Eden, the stage was set for the Mighty Deliverer to step onto the world stage!  The promise came from Almighty God Himself, who had earlier created the heavens and the earth, the cosmos and everything herein.

Although the great plan of redemption and the 'Coming of the Deliverer' to ransom fallen man was already a done deal, it was not until the wicked, treasonous Lucifer had caused the greatest catastrophe to befall the human race, that the great God and creator made it public.

Certainly, Adam and Eve, the first human beings to rebel, couldn't have seen the announcement coming, as things had escalated out of the precise order they were so accustomed to previously.

The Wicked One, the conniving deceiver, undoubtedly knew there would be a strong response from the EVERY LIVING ONE to his dastardly deed.  But, the 'Coming of the Deliverer' was more than he had expected.

He was stricken with PANIC as he heard the Almighty question Adam and Eve: "Adam, why did you do this"?  Adam passed the buck, using a blame game approach: "The woman you gave me is to blame.  She gave me the fruit.  It is not my fault."

God asked the woman: "What hast thou done?"  Eve answered truthfully, "The Serpent beguiled me and I did eat." She pointed at the devil in the SNAKE and said, "Satan is to blame.  He beguiled me."

The eternal God stated: "Because  you have done this unrighteous deed, I have placed enmity between man and snakes.  People will loath serpents and hate them.  Snakes will crawl on their belly and eat dust because it allowed the deceiver to enter its body.  Lucifer, you will identify with the lowest of the low and be named the great Serpent

 How to get to Heaven, Bible scriptures on Jesus Christ, heaven, death of Jesus. Why is Christ the only way to get to heaven? Audio sermon The Place called Heaven,THE DELIVERER'S VIRGIN BIRTH

“The Deliverer will be born to a woman without a human father. He will be True God from eternity and True Man through His virgin birth; incarnated (God in human flesh) without sin. He will meet the Demands of Divine Justice to atone for the sins of the world. Through this act of LOVE,  He will atone (pay the penalty) for Adam and Eve's treasonous deeds.  The shedding of His righteous, sinless blood, and His  resurrection from the dead will guarantee forgiveness for members of the human race, who will receive Him!

“But, for you, Lucifer, there will be no peace or redemption. Your fate is sealed forever.  You are an eternally doomed Despot. The blood of the Deliverer will obliterate  your power to dominate Adam's race. In the future, your sins of Pride, Greed and Hatred will fuel your torments.

Fear will constantly haunt you as you search for clues of the Coming Deliverer. You will seek to destroy Him, but will be unable to do so. Because of His perfect redemption, He will bring total liberty, forgiveness, healing and eternal life for Adam's fallen race!

In the Final Battle, the Deliverer will CRUSH your head, Lucifer. And you will be cast into the Lake that burns with Fire and Brimstone for ever and ever. Throughout eternity, Lucifer, you will be known as Satan, the Liar, Deceiver, Opposer of all righteousness – an Enemy of God and Man!

“Your name Devil, will identify you as a Liar above all liars, a Swindler, Traducer, and Slanderer. You've have earned your titles well;  Beelzebub means the Master of flies; dirty, filthy flies! You deceived the woman, but the God/Man Who will be born of a Virgin, will lift the heavy burdens from God's children. His pure and perfect blood will be shed for all human beings and will free all who believe on His Name."

Is your name written in the book of life? How to get to Heaven, Bible scriptures on Jesus Christ, heaven, death of Jesus. Why is Christ the only way to get to heaven? Audio sermon The Place called Heaven,IS YOUR NAME IN THE BOOK OF LIFE?

JESUS said: “And the Devil that deceived them was cast into the Lake of Fire and brimstone where the Beast and False Prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night forever and ever.

“And I saw a great white throne, and Him that sat on it, from Whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. And I saw the dead small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the Book of  Life and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.

“And death and Hell were cast into the the Lake of Fire. This is the Second Death. And whosoever was not written in the Book of Life was cast into the Lake of Fire.” (Revelation 20:10 15)

What is the Book of Life? Whose names are recorded in the Book of Life? Are some names blotted out of the Book of Life? Why do many Jews during the Jewish New Year season use this greeting: “May your name be inscribed in the Book of Life?"

After their campaigns, Jesus' disciples were joyous: “And the seventy returned again with JOY, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject to us through Thy name.

“And He said unto them, I  beheld Satan as lightning FALL from Heaven. Behold I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and NOTHING shall by any means hurt you.

“Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the (evil) spirits are subject unto you: but rather REJOICE because your names are written in Heaven.” (Luke 10:18-20)

At the very moment a person is born again by the Holy Spirit and the Word of God, his name is inscribed in the Lamb's Book of Life. That is the MIRACLE of Christ's redemptive work in our hearts and lives.

Why is Christ the only way to get to heaven? Audio sermon The Place called Heaven.  Is your name written in the book of life? How to get to Heaven, Bible scriptures on Jesus Christ, heaven, death of Jesus. PASSED FROM DEATH UNTO LIFE!

Jesus stated: “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth My Word and believeth on Him that sent Me hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation: but is passed from death unto life.” (John 5:24)

The BIBLE says: “Behold what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God; therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew Him not. Behold, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when He shall appear, we shall be like Him; for we see Him as He is.” (1 John 3:1,2)

“No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and His love is perfected in us. Hereby know we that we dwell in Him, and He in us, because He hath given us of His Spirit.

“And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world. Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth within him, and he in God.” (1 John 4:12-15)

“Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth  Him  that begat loveth him also that is begotten of Him. He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made Him a liar because he believeth not the RECORD that God gave of His Son.

“And this is the record, that God hath given to us ETERNAL LIFE, and this life is in His Son. He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.

“These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God: that ye might know that ye have eternal life, and that ye might believe on the name of the Son of God.

“And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given an understanding, that we may know Him that is true and we are in Him that is TRUE, and we are in Him that is true, even in His Son Jesus Christ. This is true God and eternal life.” (1 John 5: 1,11-13,20)

Audio sermon The Place called Heaven.  Why is Christ the only way to get to heaven? Is your name written in the book of life? How to get to Heaven, Bible scriptures on Jesus Christ, heaven, death of Jesus. THERE IS ONLY ONE WAY TO HEAVEN

In his letter to former pagans in Corinth, St. Paul the Founder of the Church among the Gentiles, declared that Jesus Christ is the ONLY Saviour and that all other deities or paths to God, Heaven and eternal life are false. He said that they will not save you!

“But to us (Believers) there is but ONE GOD, the Father, of Whom are all things, and we in Him; and ONE Lord Jesus Christ, by Whom are all things, and we by Him.” (1 Corinthians 8: 6). The Holy Spirit convicts us of our sins. Jesus Christ saves us by His Blood. The Blessed Holy Spirit brings us into the presence the Father.

The Bible says: “For through Him (Jesus Christ) we both (all believers) have ACCESS  by one Spirit (Holy Spirit) unto the Father.” (Ephesians 1:18)

Jesus Christ is the only WAY to God and Heaven! He said: “I  am the DOOR, by Me if any man enter in, he shall be SAVED, and shall go in and out and find pasture. The  thief (Satan) cometh not but for to steal, kill and destroy. I am come that you may have life, and have it more abundantly.” (John 10:9,10). Amen.


Are You ready to Meet God? Is your name written in the book of life? How to get to Heaven, Bible scriptures on Jesus Christ, heaven, death of Jesus. ARE YOU READY 
TO MEET GOD?

by: Pastor Max Solbrekken, D.D.

CAN I ASK YOU A QUESTION?  ARE YOU READY TO MEET GOD?

The most important question I could ask you and the most important decision of your entire lifetime revolves around the spiritual welfare of your soul and its eternal destiny.

There are preachers today who have soft-soaped the Gospel and watered down God’s word to please their listeners in order to keep their parishioners coming to church.

They are afraid that if they preach the truth, as it is written, people will not like it and their offering plates will not bring in too much money.

The Bible warns that this would be the case in the end time, of which we are now living. (2 Timothy 3:13) (2 Timothy 4:3-4). The Apostle Paul calls such preachers Food Preachers or Belly Preachers. (Romans 16:18) (Philippians 3:19) These men only preach to earn a living and not to win men and women to Jesus Christ.

I’m going to be absolutely honest with you and tell you the complete truth as found in God’s Word concerning your soul, death, judgment, heaven, hell and eternity and the gift of salvation. Then I will also show you how you can be saved and forgiven by the precious blood of Jesus Christ.

Your Soul will never die. Are You ready to Meet God? Is your name written in the book of life? How to get to Heaven, Bible scriptures on Jesus Christ, heaven, death of Jesus.

Is your name written in the book of life? How to get to Heaven, Bible scriptures on Jesus Christ, heaven, death of Jesus. #4 - YOU’LL PAY FOR YOUR SINS IF YOU DON’T REPENT OF THEM

"The wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." (Romans 6:23) "The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God." (Psalms 9:17) 

"When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory: And before him shall be gathered all the nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divided his sheep from the goats: 

And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left. Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: 

Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal." (Matthew 25:31-34, 41, 46)

Are you ready to meet God? Are you prepared for eternity? What must I do to be ready to meet God? Salvation, how can I be saved. What must I do to be saved? Salvation message#5 - ALL HAVE SINNED

"For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." (Romans 3:23) "And we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all." (Isaiah 53:6) "There is none righteous, no, no one." (Romans 3:10)

Jesus died to save sinners. Standing before God on judgment day is one appointment you can't cancel or postpone. Are You ready to Meet God? Is your name written in the book of life? How to get to Heaven, Bible scriptures on Jesus Christ, heaven, death of Jesus. #6 - JESUS DIED TO SAVE SINNERS

Jesus said, "For I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance", (Matthew 9:13) and "For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost." (Matthew 18:11)

"He was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed." (Isaiah 53:5)

"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. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through him might be saved." (John 3:16-17)

Are you ready to meet God? Are you prepared for eternity? What must I do to be ready to meet God? Salvation, how can I be saved. What must I do to be saved? Salvation message#7 - YOU MUST REPENT OF YOUR SINS

"He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy." (Proverbs 28:13) 

"Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts and let him return unto the Lord, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon." (Isaiah 55:7)

"Except ye repent ye shall all likewise perish." (Luke 13:5)

#8 - YOU MUST BELIEVE THE GOSPEL

"That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shall 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)

#9 - ACCEPT JESUS CHRIST AS YOUR PERSONAL SAVIOUR BY FAITH

"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast." (Ephesians 2:8-9) "Come unto me all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." (Matthew 11:28) "Come now, and let us reason together saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool." (Isaiah 1:18) "Him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out." (John 6:37)

Are you ready to meet God? Are you prepared for eternity? What must I do to be ready to meet God? Salvation, how can I be saved. What must I do to be saved? Salvation message#10 - HE WILL GIVE YOU THE POWER YOU NEED

"He came unto his own, and his own received him not. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name." (John 1:11-12) "Ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth." (Acts 1:8)

HOW CAN I BE SAVED?

Many are asking this question today. They are wanting to know how to "make things right with Almighty God." They realize somewhere along the way, they have lost sight of God - they have lost contact with the Eternal One - the Great Creator, God, who loved the world so much that He sent His Son to die for lost humanity.

Multitudes today are groping in darkness - looking for a ray of light to point them to the Heavenly way - but alas, they search in vain, they stumble and fall in the shadows of sin, worry, fear, anxiety, loneliness, heartbreak, sickness and confusion.

Many people have tried to live a better life, turn over a new leaf, rehabilitate themselves, only to find that their strength in the time of testing and temptation has failed and they are back where they started. So now, not only are they defeated, but they are also bewildered, perplexed and tormented, not knowing which way to turn.

Dear Reader, perhaps you are one of these poor unfortunate souls. THEN LISTEN CAREFULLY, for I have good news for you. There is still balm in Gilead for your sin sick soul. There is still deliverance for the bound, victory for the defeated and peace for the troubled. There is still healing for the sick and salvation for the lost.

THERE IS STILL HOPE - LOOK TO JESUS

THERE IS STILL HOPE FOR YOU. There is life for you. There is still forgiveness and happiness for you. LOOK TO JESUS, the author and finisher of your faith, (Hebrews 12:3).

LOOK TO JESUS, the mighty conqueror (Revelation 1:17-18).

LOOK TO JESUS, the Saviour of the World (Luke 2:11).

Don’t look at your sinful condition, LOOK TO JESUS; don’t look at your hopelessness, frustration and bewilderment, LOOK TO JESUS.

Don’t look at your sickness, grief and loneliness, LOOK TO JESUS.

Don’t look at your friends of other Christians who have failed, but LOOK TO JESUS who never fails.

The Bible says in Isaiah 45:22, "Look unto me and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God and there is NONE else."

There is only one way to be saved and that is through Jesus Christ, the Son of the Living God.

Jesus said in (John 14:6), "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life, no man cometh unto the Father but by me." Jesus said in (John 10:9), "I am the Door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be SAVED, and shall go in and out and find pasture."

THERE IS ONLY ONE WAY TO GO - that way is JESUS. There is only one door to God, and that door is Jesus. There is no other.

Mohammed, Buddha and the Roman Pope, a church organization - none of these will open the doors to the Kingdom of Heaven, but Jesus Christ, the one who came from heaven, who died on the Cross, rose again from the dead - He is able to forgive you, save you and bring you into the Kingdom of God. GLORY TO HIS NAME FOREVER.

The Apostle Peter said in (Acts 4:12) concerning Jesus Christ, "Neither is there Salvation in any other, for there is none other name under Heaven, given among men whereby we must be SAVED." There you have it. the only name that can bring salvation, blessing and deliverance is the Mighty Name of Jesus. The Angel said unto Joseph (Matthew 1:21), "Ye shall call His Name Jesus, for He shall SAVE His people from their sins." In (Romans 10:13) we read, "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be SAVED."

The Philippian jailer asked the same question many today are asking and he got an answer he was converted, his life was changed. He met the master, Jesus. You can do the same. There in the prison house he cried out (Acts 16:30), "Sirs, what must I do to be saved?" Paul answered, "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and be Saved." He believed on Jesus Christ and was Saved. you can do the same.

But you ask - how can I believe? What must I do to believe in Jesus Christ? Where do I start? I am glad you asked these questions, because I have the answer for you from God’s word - Here is what you must do to be saved.

#1 - REPENT OF YOUR SINS

To be saved you must repent of your sins and see yourself as you really are - You must realize you are lost and undone, without hope. You must see God’s Holiness and realize that you have sinned against the Almighty. You must be sorry for your sins, you must hate your sins and be willing to forsake them (Matthew 4:17) your sins have condemned you (John 3:18) your sins have separated you from God (Isaiah 59:2). The Bible says (Romans 3:23), "For all have sinned and come short of the Glory of God." Also in (Isaiah 53:6) the word of God says, "All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned everyone to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all."

GOD HATES YOUR SINS - but God loves you. God wants to rescue you out of your sins. You must be willing to give yourself completely over to God and turn your back on all unrighteousness.

#2 - YOU MUST CONFESS YOU SINS TO GOD

(1 John 1:9) "If we confess our sins (to God), He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." You must tell God you are a sinner and that you cannot save yourself. You must confess to God that no one else can save you except Jesus Christ. You must ask God to have mercy on you (Luke 18:13) and to forgive you. Then you must confess to God that you believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God, that Jesus Christ died on the Cross of Calvary for your sins, that He rose again from the dead and that He is able to save you (1 Corinthians 15:1-4) (Hebrews 7:25).

#3 - YOU MUST ACCEPT JESUS CHRIST AS YOUR SAVIOUR 

Tell God that you accept His pardon and that you now, through faith in God’s word accept Jesus Christ into your heart and life. (Ephesians 2:8-9) "For by grace are you saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast." Salvation is absolutely free - you cannot work for it - you cannot pay for it - It is free - you just receive it from God.

After you have prayed to God asking Him to forgive you - then you must believe He has heard your prayer and forgiven your sins. That is faith. You say that is hard to do. No - it isn’t. If you believe that God told the truth and the Bible is God’s word - God will do what He said He would do. If you have prayed the sinner’s prayer asking God to forgive you, (then he has forgiven you; His word tells you that and His word is the truth) and if you are forgiven, then you are saved. You must then continue to live in God’s way - you must live for God. Believe that you are saved, begin to praise and worship God and thank him for saving your soul.

But you have doubts and say, "I don’t feel any different." You say you still feel the way you did before, you don’t feel like you are saved. Always remember, you are NOT SAVED by your feelings, you are saved by FAITH IN GOD’S WORD. If God said it - it is the truth, whether you feel like it or not. However, when you stand of God’s word and by faith accept the Salvation that God offers, you WILL FEEL DIFFERENT.

You will believe before you feel - you will feel the cleansing, you will feel the forgiveness of God, you will feel the assurance when you believe God’s word and have confessed Jesus Christ as your Saviour.  (Romans 10:9-10).

You will begin to feel peace, the peace that comes from knowing you are saved, that your sins have been forgiven and you will feel hope and optimism.

The Word of God states (John 6:37), Jesus said, "Him that cometh unto Me, I will in no wise cast out." You have come to Jesus by faith; He has not cast you out - Jesus has taken you in - you are SAVED. Praise God.

Raise your hands to God (in complete obedience and surrender). Say "thank you, Jesus, for saving my soul." Praise Him and Worship Him for what He has done for you.

You are now saved, you have passed from death unto life (John 5:24). Your name has now been written in the "Lamb’s Book of Life." (Revelation 20:15) The Angels are rejoicing in Heaven over this great victory over the devil. God has snatched your soul from Satan’s grasp and the angels are rejoicing over this. (Luke 15:7)

RISE from you knees full of peace (John 14:27). Now go and tell someone about Jesus Christ and his love. Tell people what God has done for you. (Romans 10:9-10) "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."

Seek the Lord (James 4:8) and ask Him to fill you with the holy Ghost and Fire.

Ask God to give you power for service (Luke 3:16) (Acts 1:4) (Acts 1:8) (Acts 2:4) (Acts 2:38-39). Read your Bible every day and pray to the Lord Jesus Christ.

As you go about your life, witness to people about Jesus Christ. Find a good church where the pastor and the congregation believe the whole Bible, where they believe in holiness of life and separation from the world.

Find a church where they believe in prayer for the sick and where the pastor and congregation have a burden to see the lost saved and brought to Jesus Christ.

May the Lord bless you and give you peace. Write me a letter if you have accepted the lord Jesus Christ as a result of reading this message.

Jesus said, "Come unto Me all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." (Matthew 11:28)

Yes, my dear friend, God is still in the business of setting men and women free from their sins, sorrows, heartbreaks, fears and troubles.  In this age of frustrations, nervous tensions and mental collapses, Jesus Christ is still granting peace to the troubled, joy to the discouraged, strength to the weary and healing to the sick!

1 - You must admit that you are a sinner

The Bible says, “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God”. (Rom. 3:23) “All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on Him the iniquity of us all.” (Isaiah 53:6)

2 - You must believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God

You MUST believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, that Jesus died on the cross, was buried and rose again from the dead.

“That whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have eternal life. He that believeth on Him is not condemned: buot he that believeth not is condemned already.” (John 3:15,18) “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth My word, and believeth on Him that sent Me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.” (John 5:24)

Anti-christ 666, the beast. Names of the anti-christ, facts about anti-christ, Revelation and the anti-christ4 - You must receive Jesus Christ as your Saviour

The Bible says: “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)

“Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear My voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with Me.” (Rev. 3:20) “He that hath the Son hath life: and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.” (1 John 5:12)

Anti-christ 666, the beast. Names of the anti-christ, facts about anti-christ, Revelation and the anti-christ5 - You must confess Jesus Christ as your Lord

The Bible says: “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)

“…Whosoever shall confess Me before men, him shall the Son of man confess before the angels of God: But he that denieth Me before men shall be denied before the angels of God.” (Luke 12:8, 9)


Salvation,salvation articles,salvation Bible scriptues verses, what is salvationHOW DO I INVITE 
JESUS CHRIST INTO MY LIFE?

Pray to God, a prayer - from your heart.  

Tell Him that you are a sinner and that you need forgiveness.  Tell him that you believe Jesus Christ died for your sins.  Tell him that you are willing to change, to turn away from sin.  Ask Jesus Christ to come into your heart and life and be your personal Saviour.

"But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name." (John 1:12)

"Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new." (2 Corinthians 5:17)

If you prayed and ask Jesus Christ into your heart - YOU HAVE NOW RECEIVED THE GIFT OF SALVATION - YOU HAVE BECOME A CHILD OF GOD.  God Bless You.
