What does it mean to be a true Christian ? “Everything God thinks are called facts, everything we think are called opinions!” 1 John 5:3-4 “This is love for God; to obey His commands. And His commands are not burdensome, for everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith.” Matthew 7:21-22 “Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them. Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in Heaven.” John 10:4-5 “When he [the Shepherd] has brought out all his own, he goes on ahead of them, and his sheep follow him because they know his voice. But they will never follow a stranger; in fact, they will run away from him because they do not recognize a stranger’s voice.” John 14:15-17, 26 “If you love Me, you will obey what I command. And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Counselor to be with you forever – the Spiri...

U2 Have Hope
I've got to be the most blessed gal ever! Seriously, I think I am sometimes! God grants me so many joys in this life, often I feel as if I'm going to burst. I wonder sometimes how this temporal body can contain the glorious blessings from God without spontaneously combusting from it! Can you feel my excitement?! A dear friend and precious sister in our Lord Jesus Christ, Carrie Cooper has recently been granted by God, an open door into radio ministry...on two stations, 91.3 fm KDKR in Dallas/Ft. Worth and 94.7 fm KKIM in New Mexico . Both radio stations love her short 30 minute segment and have joyfully invited her to air U2 Have Hope on their stations. Naturally, living in this world, that takes money and a lot of prayer. Carrie is trusting God, who opened this door, to speak into the hearts of His faithful children to: fervently pray and ask others to pray also prayerfully consider financially supporting this ministry faithfully help to spread the word: in person, by ...

Pure Gospel math -- Jesus plus nothing equals everything!
A precious sister in the Lord, whom God has graciously given me to disciple, just shared this wonderful sermon from Tullian Tchividjian given at the 2010 Desiring God conference. Our faithful brother Tullian addresses three issues regarding the Gospel: Motivation - we need to be motivated to share the Gospel to share all that God has done for us in Christ Jesus and not what "good works" we can do in His name. Identity - Believing our sole identity is in Christ and His finished work and not in anything we do or what others say about us and what we should do, will provide us the true freedom Jesus suffered and died to give us. We already have God's favor Christ. We can't do anything to gain any more. What's more than Christ? Idolatry - There are more idols in the church than outside its walls. Many Christians today fall into Satan's trap that obedience and/or good works will provide more of God's grace and blessings. NO! We receive God's grace and ...

Death is Not Dying: A Faith That Saves
Dearest brothers and sisters in the Lord Jesus, I know I very rarely write personal notes, but I felt today, it was a good thing to do. It's been quite some time since I've written anything. And those of you who have been with me for a while have probably already figured out why...my health has once again taken a decline. Due to my severe vitamin B12 and D deficiencies and the inability for my body to absorb and maintain normal values of both, my doctors have decided it was wise to check my blood at least every three months. Of course, I've never quite made it three months without having my blood checked, but it is a something to look forward to. ☺ Back in December I was referred to yet another specialist - a pancreatic specialist, as it has become apparent my pancreas is not functioning well. Currently the pancreatic function test that is available is a very bad one and most often only detects a malady when 80% of the pancreas' function is no longer s...

The Gift of A Bible
Wow! Many of you may have heard of Penn & Teller, the comedic, magician act. Penn has always been very open about being a devout atheist. But still when someone, filled with love for God and men who were created in God's image gave this outspoken atheist a Bible, this is what happened. May the Lord our God find all His children this obedient and full of compassion for the lost.

WFW - Valentine's Neighborhood Evangelism
Here's the picture of all the elements (Valentine's tract, candy & crinkle paper) as well as the picture of our family's Valentine's Neighborhood Evangelism Gift bags. Please feel free to share this idea with anyone and everyone you know that loves our Lord Jesus Christ and who deeply desires this to be said about them: "Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were uneducated and untrained men, they marveled. And they realized that they had been with Jesus ." Acts 4:13 (NKJV) Some interesting facts about our life. The average person dies at 70 years old.

Celebrate Valentine's Day - Share Christ!
Wouldn't it be great if someone came up with a Valentine's Day evangelism tract? Someone did! I found it at Custom Tract Source . back of card says: A Gift For You A “wise” man once said, “Life is like a box of chocolates; you never know what you’re going to get!” You know, he was right. You just never know what you’re going to get in life. But there’s more to our existence than just this life on earth. What about eternity? We can all afford to make mistakes in this life, but when it comes to our eternal destination, none of us can afford to be wrong! So how do you know where you’ll spend eternity? You can find out by asking yourself if you have kept God’s moral Law, the Ten Commandments: Have you ever told a lie? (White lies, half truths, and exaggerations are still lies.) Have you ever stolen anything? (The value is irrelevant.) Have you ever taken God’s name in vain? That’s called blasphemy. Have you ever looked at another person with lustful desires? Jesus said, “Anyo...

Praise...Darwin? A Message from Ray Comfort
Praise... Darwin? In 1963, it took only one atheist to take Bible-reading and prayer out of our schools. Now they want to stop Gideons from giving Bibles to school kids, remove reference to God on our money and in the Pledge of Allegiance, change B.C./A.D., stop public prayer, ban nativity scenes, etc. The "Freedom From Religion Foundation," is placing billboards around the country trying to offend Christians so that the national media will film their billboard, promote their website, and thus help gain support to fulfill their godless agenda. They want to take from Americans the liberty that we have to freely worship God. Darwin Day, February 12th, 2009 More than 350 locations around the world are celebrating Darwin Day -- the 200th birthday of Charles Darwin. Atheists will no doubt use it to further their cause. Many universities and even the National Geographic and Discovery Channels are planning to celebrate. This is a big deal. We want to pull the plug on ...

There's No Time To Waste
I thank God for all our faithful brothers and sisters at Living Waters / Way of the Master Ministries. I'm especially thankful for how God has charged them with the task of exhorting and equipping saints to join the battle for souls for the glory of Jesus Christ. None of us know when our last day is, so let's live like it's everyone else's - and lovingly, with great passion and without watering down God's truth, share with them, the Way of eternal life; through Christ Jesus alone. I was so incredibly encouraged by this video. I pray that God will ignite your heart to preach the Gospel to those who are now, where we were once....in a position of enmity with God. May we be so humbled and grateful for our own salvation, that we burn with passion to share this gift of life with others.

The Gift of Diabetes - The Gift of the Body of Christ
Please watch this video and allow the Holy Spirit to encourage, refresh and teach you as you listen to our brother Ray, lovingly, compassionately and boldly share the message of eternal salvation through trust in Jesus Christ alone. Hello dearest sisters! I know I've been "away" for a while, but I think I've finally come to a place of acceptance with all my health issues! And here's the VERY short version: I've been diagnosed with: pre-diabetes reactive hypoglycemia or hypoglycemia (which usually turns into diabetes type 1) high blood pressure and a host of other issues due to this there's nothing anyone can do but wait for me to get full blown diabetes just managing it by eating more to keep my sugars leveled With Christ's strength, our Father God's wisdom and great comfort, I've chosen to let go of any anxieties and inhibitions I've had due to my diabetes and all the other complications I've been experiencing. The best ...

The Way of The Master - Season 3
Please watch the video above, which includes interviews by: R.C. Sproul ~ Founder& Chairman 0f Ligonier Ministries Joni Eareckson Tada ~ Founder, CEO of Joni & Friends Dr. Tony Evans ~ Sr. Pastor, Oakcliff Bible Fellowship Dr. D. James Kennedy ~ Founder, Coral Ridge Ministries Dr. Ravi Zacharias ~ President, Ravi Zacharias International Ministries (RZIM) I'm so excited about this! If you've never watched Way of The Master (WOTM), you're really missing out! When we were introduced to this show several years ago, it just blew us away! We never realized how "easy" it was to evangelize! We didn't need to be a graduate of seminary, we didn't need to memorize a million Scriptures, we just needed to know the Ten Commandments and our personal testimony of God's gift of salvation through His one and only Son, Jesus Christ! My family found such freedom in this. Does that mean evangelism isn't still a bit scary for us? NO! It still is, ...

A Casualty of the Seeker-Friendly gospel
Last year on December 9, 2007 the world witnessed another casualty of the seeker-friendly, worldly-based, false gospel that is not only injuring the purpose of the Church, but also grieving our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Matthew Murray, a 24 year old false convert of Christianity killed four people: two at Youth With a Mission Training Center in Arvada, CO and two at New Life Church in Colorado Springs, CO as well as wounding five others before he took his own life. Below is a two page letter Matthew wrote "To God". It was found in his car after the second shooting. Please read the letter carefully and soberly, as Matthew describes his torment and anguished struggle to find the truth from professing Christians who could neither answer his questions regarding sound doctrine, nor lead him to the one and only Savior God has provided for all mankind, Jesus Christ. Please click on the letter below to enlarge and read: I hope this encourages every child of God, to never again ...

Cyclone Nargis hits Myanmar (Burma): 05/03/2008
I just heard of the Cyclone Nargis that hit Myanmar (Burma) this past Saturday, May 3, 2008. The death toll is up to 22,000 with over 41,000 people still missing. This impoverished country is run by the military who has not allowed any outside aid to help their people. They have about 5 days of water and rice. Most of their rice fields were destroyed as well as 95% of the all buildings and housing. Many countries including the U.S. have offered aid and are prepared to come in and help. Unfortunately, their visas have not yet been approved and the people of Myanmar are suffering because of it. I thank God for our brothers and sisters from Gospel for Asia who are already in Myanmar and have been for the past 20 years. One of Gospel for Asia's Bible Colleges are being used for temporary shelter and many people are coming to them for food, shelter and other aid. PRAISE GOD!!! Our awesome God and Father has been so gracious to those in Myanmar by sending His children into this country t...

What Does Jesus Mean to You?
My old church had a volunteer position called, “Decision Counselors”. As a Decision Counselor, part of my job was to “sign up” new people who desired membership at our church. Part of that “sign up” process was to first ask this question, “In your own words, describe how a person can go to Heaven.” I got some interesting answers, but most times, I’d get the “right” answer, “Ask Jesus into your heart.”, or “Ask Jesus to be your Lord and Savior.” But I didn’t usually get just answer. About 95% of the time people either added a statement right before saying the “right” answer, or something after, “Do good things, read the Bible, obey the Ten Commandments, go to church, believe in God”, etc. Sometimes, the really well-versed would even quote Ephesians 2:8-9 or Romans 10:9-10 , or some other verses that has nothing to do with salvation. To everyone who gave me a “weak” answer, I’d ask a second question, “What does Jesus mean to you ...personally?” These are the responses I received 100% of...
