Everybody has struggled or failed …

But don’t fear, there is hope for you. Where can this amazing hope be found? In a life-changing relationship with Jesus Christ. That’s right. He is REAL, and He REALLY WILL turn your life around, if you let Him DO IT. Why don’t you ask Him today?

Do You Know Jesus?

Salvation

Jesus said, “I am come that you might have life and that you might have it more abundantly” (John 10:10). Accepting Jesus as your Savior and Lord changes your life forever. You become born-again and your life becomes more abundant.

What Does It Mean to Be Born-Again?

“Except a man be born again he cannot see the Kingdom of God” (John 3:3).

Being born-again means that you are saved from eternal judgment, delivered from your sins, set free from the penalty of your sins, and redeemed by Jesus to have new, fulfilling life.

II Corinthians 5:17 declares “if any man be in Christ he is a new creature (or creation) old things are passed away and behold all things become new.”

Once we become born-again, God sees us as new creatures because all of our sins and transgressions that separated us from God are now covered by the precious blood of His Son, Jesus. Righteousness gives us the privilege to stand before God and make our requests known unto Him through prayer. We have fellowship or communion with Him — a personal relationship with the God of the universe.

How Can You Become Born-Again?

The process for being born-again is found in Romans 10:9: “If thou shall confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shall believe in thine heart that God has raised Him from the dead thou shall be saved.”

First, believe in your heart that Jesus is the Son of God, that God raised Jesus from the dead, and that Jesus Christ died and shed His blood so you could be cleansed of your sin.

Then, confess that Jesus Christ is God, and ask Him to forgive you for your sins and take control (be Lord) of your life.

Make the decision to be born-again today!

To begin your new life with Christ, pray this prayer with me.

“Dear Lord Jesus, I recognize my need for You and I ask You to come into my heart and change my life. I know I am a sinner and ask you to forgive me for all my sins and make me clean. I invite Jesus Christ to come into my heart and life to be my Savior and Lord. Thank You for Your forgiveness and salvation today. Amen.”

If you prayed that prayer from your heart, then you have just become born-again!

Please write us and share that great news, and so that we can pray for you and send you some information that will help you grow in your new walk with Christ.

May God Bless You!

Real Ministry – Touching Real Lives

By staff On September 30th, 2009 in Family Life, Ministry, Uncategorized /

Our objective is to reach the lost and strengthen the church – in the USA and around the world.”

We are grateful that God is allowing us to touch many lives around the world. Although we have two distinct areas of ministry International and USA Ministries, in reality, they are one. For when it’s all said and done, we minister to people. And people are people – wherever they live.

Cultures and traditions change from nation to nation, but the basic needs of humanity remain unchanged. Our goal is to minister to the basic, unchanged needs of people, whether they live here in the United States or around the world.

Where do we minister? Greece, Dominican Republic, Austria, Germany, Armenia, Thailand, the Philippines, Cambodia, Mexico and others. We are seeing God do many miraculous things for the people of those nations!

In Cambodia alone, we have already seen the Lord save over 4000 souls! People have been miraculously healed, numerous lives changed forever – and the church strengthened. (See Vision & Mission statement)

The Heart of Missions

By Tom Cannon On July 27th, 2008 in Featured, Ministry /

“Then Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people. But when He saw the multitudes, He was moved with compassion, for them, because they were weary and scattered, like sheep having no shepherd. Then He said to His disciples, “The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into the harvest.” (Matthew 9:35-39)

All Things New

By Tom Cannon On May 27th, 2008 in Books, Family Life, Ministry /

Feeding, nursing, caressing, counseling, and religiously washing the old nature of fallen humanity will not save anyone. The only way a child of God can be produced is when a person “is born of the Spirit.” The flesh must die, for there is no other cure. The religion of humanity loves an outward show of rites, rituals and ceremonies (Colossians 2:20-22), but these will not lead us into right relationship with God. Rather, it is the inner change of our nature, and the heart transformation that only Christ brings; that is the hope for our salvation.

“Therefore, if you died with Christ from the basic principles of the world, why, as though living in the world, do you subject yourselves to regulations— 21“Do not touch, do not taste, do not handle,” 22which all concern things which perish with the using—according to the commandments and doctrines of men? 23These things indeed have an appearance of wisdom in self-imposed religion, false humility, and neglect of the body, but are of no value against the indulgence of the flesh.” (NKJV)

Everything that has to do with our former nature will “perish with the doing,” because they are born of the flesh. In Matthew 15:11, Jesus said, “Every plant which my Father hath not planted shall be rooted up.” (KJV)
