The Good News

The Good News is that every person can avoid the bad news.

The bad news is that every person is born hopeless, helpless and condemned.

Before the Living God. (John 3:16-19)

Every person is born a sinner, with the natural tendency to sin,

And with Hell as their destination apart from Christ. (Psalm 51:5)

The good news is that every person can REPENT of their sins and be forgiven.

Christ Jesus purchased forgiveness of sin

By shedding His Own blood on the cross of Calvary.

God determined by His own perfect justice

That without the shedding of blood there could be no forgiveness of sin. (Hebrews 9:22)

Christ Jesus came into this world for the purpose of shedding His blood

For the sins of the whole world.

God Himself, in Christ Jesus, became the perfect sacrifice for ALL sin.

How do we obtain forgiveness of our sin?

We come to the only person who can forgive us of our sin, Christ Jesus,

And in heart felt REPENTANCE ask Him to FORGIVE us of our sin;

It is our FAITH in Christ's ability to forgive our sins, that we are forgiven.

FAITH is being sure of what we hope for, CERTAIN of what we do not see.

(Hebrews 11:1)

If we CONFESS with our mouth that Jesus is Lord,

And BELIEVE in our heart that God raised Him from the dead

We are SAVED. (Romans 10:9)

It is with our HEART that we BELIEVE and are JUSTIFIED before God,

And it is with our MOUTH that we CONFESS and are SAVED. (Romans 10:10)

Scripture tells us:

Anyone who TRUSTS in Christ Jesus will NEVER be put to SHAME. (Romans 10:11)

If you have REPENTED of your SIN

You must now WALK in the LIGHT of Christ Jesus:

God is LIGHT; in Him there is no darkness at all.

If we claim to have fellowship Him yet WALK in the DARKNESS,

We LIE and do not live the the TRUTH.

But if we WALK in the LIGHT, we have fellowship with one another.

And the BLOOD of Jesus, His Son, PURIFIES us from ALL sin. (1 John 1:5-7)

If we claim to be without sin,

We DECEIVE ourselves and the TRUTH is not in us.

If we CONFESS our sins to Him,

He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins

And purify us from all unrighteousness.

If we claim we have not sinned, we make Him out to be a LIAR

And His Word has no place in our lives. (1 John 1:8-10)

The only way that we can walk in the Light of Christ;

The only way that we can OVERCOME this world and Satan who rules it

Is to be filled with Christ;

Allowing Christ to live in and through us.

Everyone must have his personal Day of Pentecost;

Be Baptized, Immersed in the Holy Spirit and with Fire.

Before Pentecost Christ is with us,

But after we receive our personal Day of Pentecost Christ is in us.

(John 14:17)

Christ is infinitely more powerful than Satan.

Christ living in and through us enables us to do the will of Christ

And to do the works of Christ—to bear fruit for His Kingdom--

To accomplish Christ's Great Commission. (Matthew 28:16-20)

We can do all things through Christ Who strengthens us. (Philippians 4:13)

OVERCOMING the Evil One and the world he rules is critical.

Christ Jesus said to the Ephesian Church:

He who has an ear let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.

To him who OVERCOMES I will give the right to eat from the Tree of LIFE,

Which is in the Paradise of God. (Revelation 2:7)

We OVERCOME the Evil One and the world he rules

By the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony

Not living this life so much as to shrink from death. (Revelation 12:11)

The Good News is that Christ has given us everything we need

To OVERCOME the Evil One and the world he rules:

His Divine Power has given us everything we need for LIFE and godliness

Through our knowledge of Him

Who called us by His Own glory and goodness.

Through these He has given us His very Great and Precious Promises,

So that through them you may participate in the “Divine Nature”

And ESCAPE the corruption in the world cause by evil desires. (2 Peter 1:3-4)

Praise be to God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ!

In His great mercy He has given us New Birth into a Living Hope

Through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

And into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade--

Kept in Heaven for you,

Who through Faith are “Shielded by God's Power”

Until the Coming of the Salvation

That is ready to be revealed in the Last Time.

In this you greatly rejoice,

Though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief

In all kinds of trials.

These have come so that your Faith—of greater worth than gold,

Which perishes even though refined by fire--

May be proved genuine and may result in praise, glory and honor

When Jesus Christ is revealed.

Though you have not seen Him, you love Him;

And even though you do not see Him now, you believe in Him

And are filled with inexpressible and glorious Joy,

For you are receiving the GOAL of your Faith,

The Salvation of your souls. (1 Peter 1:3-9)

Today, the world is raging against God, rushing toward oblivion. (Psalm 2)

America is being ground to powder because of her SIN against God.

Save yourself from this Corrupt Generation! (Acts 2:40)

As God has written, so shall it be! Hallelujah! Maranatha!

Father, Your Kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as in Heaven!
