Water Baptism

"WATER BAPTISM"

Why do people get baptized?

WATER BAPTISM  Matthew 28: 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world.  Amen.

REPENT AND BE BAPTIZED  That was a commandment that Jesus Christ gave his disciples.  Today, that commission has been given to me and any God called preacher to go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.  He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved.  That is what I want to get into your heart...repent of your sins and be baptized.  

 

DO YOU HAVE TO BE BAPTIZED TO GO TO HEAVEN? 

We want people to realize and understand that for you to have salvation...for you to make it to heaven where Jesus Christ is...or your mom, dad, brother, sister, wife or anybody that you love who are in heaven, you have to repent of your sins and be baptized.

Those people that had crucified Jesus Christ in Acts 2:...Peter had preached to them...Acts 2:36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ. KJV  He is our Redeemer.  He is our Salvation.  It is through him and through repentance that we have this ability.  

BAPTIZED VERSES  37 Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do? KJV

38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. KJV

It is important for you to turn from your wicked way...turn to God and start living for him.  Not only do you need to quit sinning, you need to start doing things that are pleasing in his sight...repent and be baptized and even greater than that.  Once you have got all that cleaned out, you need the baptism of the Holy Ghost. 

John said, Matthew 3:11 I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire: KJV

John 14:16 Jesus said, "And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;" KJV Let that Holy Ghost come into your heart and in your life.  Wash away your sins.  Be clean.  Don't let anyone tell you that you can live anyway you want to, and just accept Jesus Christ that he is Lord.

Just as when you are buried...your arms are folded...you quit breathing, and you are buried in the ground.  When the resurrection comes, you will come up with a newness of life...with a different body.  That's the way things are.  

WHAT DOES BAPTIZED MEAN When you are baptized in Jesus Christ, you take off and destroy that body of sin.  You walk a new life.

God Knows Your Name

 "God Knows Your Name"

God has a purpose for us in his work, and he knows us by name...that should make our hearts rejoice.  

When Jesus Christ resurrected (came up out of the grave), the bible said Mary had went to the tomb where he was at.  She didn't know who he was.  She thought he was just a gardener but the Lord knew who she was, and he called her by name.

He said, "Mary".  Can I tell you, when you enter into the portals of glory where God the Father is...don't you know he is going to know your name?  He is going to welcome you in.  "Welcome Home."

Matthew 25:21 His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. 

What a day when we go in to see the loving Father that loves us so much that he said, "The meek shall inherit the earth". KJV

He has got it all planned out just for you and me.  For what?  Eternal life and eternal salvation...everything you will ever need.

Are you ready for that?  That is the question.

When Jesus Christ was crucified, they beat him unrecognizable.  He was ready to go.

Matthew 24:42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. KJV

Do you know Jesus Christ as your Saviour?  If you don't, I would love to introduce you.  He is the Son of the living God.  He is the pillar and the ground of the truth. 

John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.  KJV

Only through Jesus Christ can we make it.  Do you trust in the Lord?

Repentance

 "REPENTANCE" 

 A Godly Sorrow Brings Repentance

I want to show you what it means to have a godly sorrow.  You can say you are sorry all day long.  And a lot of people have sorrow. They have the sorrow of the world but a Godly sorrow brings repentance.  It brings a change into your life.  

In 2nd Corinthians, 7:8 "For though I made you sorry with a letter, I do not repent, though I did repent: for I perceive that the same epistle hath made you sorry, though it were but for a season. 9 Now I rejoice, not that ye were made sorry, but that ye sorrowed to repentance:" So, you see, he is showing that there is a difference in just being sorry.  There is a godly sorrow.  

When you truly have a godly sorrow in your heart and in your mind for the things that you have done wrong, it will cause you to turn.  See, being sorry is not what meant that he was turned.  He was sorry for what he did.  He had the godly sorrow that caused him to turn.  I hope you can see that. 

Repentance  is not just saying, "I'm sorry for what I've done".  Repentance is actually turning from that.  9 "Now I rejoice, not that ye were made sorry, but that ye sorrowed to repentance: for ye were made sorry after a godly manner, that ye might receive damage by us in nothing.10 For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death."

Love of the Brotherhood

"Love of the Brotherhood"

Do you love your brothers and sisters?

God has given us everything that we have.  What do you have that you have not received?  We are thankful for that.  I want you to think about this...since the beginning of time after that God sent Adam out of the garden...and he drove the devil out, the Bible said he placed  cherubs and a flaming sword to keep the way of the tree of life.

^{Isaiah 35:8 And an highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it; but it shall be for those: the wayfaring men, though fools, shall not err therein. 9 No lion shall be there, nor any ravenous beast shall go up thereon, it shall not be found there; but the redeemed shall walk there:}

^{God has a place for us today!  It is in His house.} 

^{1 Peter 2:17  - Love of the Brotherhood}

^{Sometimes we preach these things in a manner of correction...I would love the Lord help me to preach this in a way of encouragement.}

^{1 Peter 2:17 KJV Honor all men.  Love the brotherhood.  Fear God.  Honour the king...That's what I want you to keep on your mind. Are we doing what would be pleasing to the Lord?  Has God spoken to you?} 

^{If God has spoken to you, then you would have compassion on those people that need help...those people who are starving to know salvation...those people who need someone to lift them up in a time when they are down...in a time when they are afflicted...in a time of imprisonment...in a time of downheartedness...in a time of having trouble in their mind...trouble in their heart...the people who can't feel the way they want to when they come to church.}  

^{These are the kind of things that a true Christian will have a heart for and want to reach a helping hand. These are the kind of things I love to see people trying to help other people with...not just their family but others.}  

Do you love your Brothers and Sisters?  Just thank the Lord for those that are with you.

I still have the same goal that I started out with to make heaven my home.  I want to go there someday.  I've heard about a place where there's no sickness, pain, dying or sorrow.  Everything of an evil nature that we know in this life will be gone.  It will have its place in hell.

Are we doing what would be pleasing to the Lord?
