Hebrews 12 - 2

Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

Give Thanks

In all things give thanks to the Lord.
In the good times and the bad times.
Remember He should prevail at all times.
Give Him the Honor and the Glory that is due onto His Name.

How do I get to Heaven?

How to get to Heaven and be

Can you get there by...

...being a good person?

No. There is none good, no not one (Romans 3:10).

...keeping God's Law?

No. God's Law is our teacher to bring us to Christ(Galatians 3:22).

...doing good works? Guess Again. God's work is to believe on Him whom He has sent (John 6:29).

...being born? Does everyone go to heaven? No. The Bible says, "Behold I was brought forth in iniquity, and in sin did my mother conceive me. (Psalm 51:5)

So how do you get there?

You have to be perfect! (Matthew 5:48)

The Bible says that there is none good, no not one but God sent His Son, Jesus, to pay for our sins(Galatians 4:16, 1 Peter 2:24).

Jesus Christ died for our sins on the cross and rose on the third day, conquering sin and death (1 Corinthians 15:3-4).

Why did God do all this for you?

The Bible says that God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whoever believes in Him should not parish but have everlasting life (John 3:16).

If you believe in Jesus you can have eternal life; and if you do not believe in Jesus, you will not see life, but the wrath of God remains on you (John 3:36).

To receive Jesus Christ and have your sins forgiven, simply confess with your mouth that Jesus Christ is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead; and you shall be saved" (Romans 10:9).

Do you believe that Jesus Christ rose from the dead? Are you ready to confess Him as Lord?
If so, pray this prayer from your heart:"God, I am a sinner. Jesus died to save sinners. Jesus died to save me. Forgive me of my sins, cleanse me. Give me a new life. I will follow you everday from this day forward. In Jesus' name, Amen."

If you just prayed to receive Jesus Christ as your Lord, now you are what the Bible calls, "Born Again" (John 3:3). This means you have been born into God's family (1 John 3:1-2). You are God's child and your Father in heaven wants to teach you about Himself. So here aresome things you can do to learn about God and His love:

1st - Get a Bible and start reading at the Gospel of John. Read the Bible every day, so God can teach you His ways through His Word (Psalm 19:7-11).

2nd - Find a Bible teaching Christian Church and attend regularly (Hebrews 10:24-25). Beware of false teachers (Jude 4) such as Mormons and Jehovah's Witnesses.

3rd - Talk to God about everything (1 Thessalonians 5:17). Ask God for strength, thank Him, and pray for others.

Contact us and let us know of your decision! We want to encourage you and help you in any way we can.

For God So Loved the World

His Love is unquestionable,
its power unconquerable,
its impact unmistakable,
its meaning undeniable,
its mystery unexplainable,
its sacrifice incoparable,
its price unimaginable,
its depth immeasurable,
its absence unthinkable !

Why I wake up early



Have you ever ruled the house, I mean really rule the house, drink columbian coffee with your mom, and finish your unfinished math homework all before 6:45AM ? This is what I get to do every single morning, while other kids sleep like a rock till 8:15AM.

The way I mean, rule the house is like I'm practicly the only person there. However my dad is sleeping when I rule the house. Shhh don't tell! My sister is at school and my mom is off to work at 6:30AM. In the morning before I go to school I play runescape on the computer, watch Drake and Josh, and play counterstrike on the Xbox.

Every single morning of the week I drink columbian coffee with my mom. When my coffee isn't so hot I finish it in about 10 seconds. But on the other hand if my coffee is burning hot I finish it in about two minutes. While my mom and I have a delightful time driking coffee, we talk about my grades in school, I tell her my test scores.

When my math homework is incomplete I usually finish it in the morning. My math homework is usually done by 6:45AM. If it's not by then, I finish it by 7:00AM. If I have any other homework, I also do it.

These are just some of the reasons why waking up early get's my disposition up to trilled. I rule the house, drink columbian coffee with my mom and fisish my unfinished math homework. These are some of the reasons I suggest you to wake up early in the morning. Another suggestion for you is that if you wake up early is never try to jump over your couch. It leaves you on the floor saying ouch !!!

The Ripple Effect



As the rain and snow come down from heaven
and stay upon the ground to water the earth,
and cause the grain to grow and to produce seed for the farmer and bread for the hungry , so also is my Word.
I sent it out and it always produces fruit.

It shall accomplish all I want it to, and prosper everywhere I send it.

Isaiah 55:10-11, tlb

I can't believe this....

Eye feels funny, it seems as though my uveites might be coming back related to my Ankylosing Spondilitis. So I rush to the oftalmologist to check things out because I do not want to go through what I went through before. Only arrive there and get the news that I have cataracts at this age and that in the right eye I am legaly blind can you believe that or what. Oh well I guess i just have to live with it, going to surgery in two weeks to see what can be done to make it right. It's like what is next.....

II Corinthians 4

16Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. 17For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. 18So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.

Wow, we made it....

We are in our new house. We have moved in. With loads of help from the movers. From friends. From brothers and sisters in Christ from Church. Our thanks to all for all the tons of help we received from everybody. I must confess I was dead beat by saturday night when I finally went to bed. But relieved that all was in the house. Now it's the organizing getting everything out of boxes. Tossing what we don't need and giving and sharing some things with others, what we don't need it's time to clean up also. Wife is happy with the new house and will all her new furniture and decorations. Now we just need some time to get everything into it's place. Thanks ... Thanks... Thanks...

End of the Spear



A must see. Be sure to take some tissue paper with you because you will shead some tears and you will chocke up at times. The question I ask is what are we waiting for there are some many in need to hear the good news of the gospel, why are we holding back, christians are not doing there duty of sharing there faith with others that have not heard the good news. We need to wake up people we need to share our faith. We need to live by example. This Sunday Morning is not going to cut it, we need a deeper commitment from all of those who have believed. We need to make ever bigger sacrifices in order to have time to not only worship the Lord but also carry out his orders and His good news !!!
