No Jesus...No heaven...Know Jesus...Know Heaven! Listen to the written word from the New Testament of Christ which is the New Agreement between God and creation…a message on how to prepare to enter Heaven…listen… John 3:16-17 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. 17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Hebrews 5:8-9 Although he was a son, he learned obedience through what he suffered. 9 And being made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation to all who obey him, Mark 12:29-31 Jesus answered, “The most important is, ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. 30 And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’ 31 The second is this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.” Matthew 18:3-4 and said, “Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. 4 Whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 11:28-30 Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.” Matthew 7:7-8 “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened. John 3:3-5 Jesus answered him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God.” 4 Nicodemus said to him, “How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother's womb and be born?” 5 Jesus answered, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. John 8:31-32 So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed him, “If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples, 32 and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. Mark 16:16 Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned. Have you ever been baptized into Christ before? Yes or no…If you have not then you cannot enter into Heaven…Will you be baptized into Christ for the remission of your sins to receive a promise? Yes or No…the promise of the Holy Spirit…listen to the first message of salvation in Jesus name with a promise… Acts 2:38-41 And Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 For the promise is for you and for your children and for all who are far off, everyone whom the Lord our God calls to himself.” 40 And with many other words he bore witness and continued to exhort them, saying, “Save yourselves from this crooked generation.” 41 So those who received his word were baptized, and there were added that day about three thousand souls… 2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come… Colossians 2:11-13 In him also you were circumcised with a circumcision made without hands, by putting off the body of the flesh, by the circumcision of Christ, 12 having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through faith in the powerful working of God, who raised him from the dead. 13 And you, who were dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses… 2 Peter 1:5-9 For this very reason, make every effort to supplement your faith with virtue, and virtue with knowledge, 6 and knowledge with self-control, and self-control with steadfastness, and steadfastness with godliness, 7 and godliness with brotherly affection, and brotherly affection with love. 8 For if these qualities are yours and are increasing, they keep you from being ineffective or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9 For whoever lacks these qualities is so nearsighted that he is blind, having forgotten that he was cleansed from his former sins… Father help us to know your Son Jesus and learn how to obey Him in the truth and we forgive all others hoping for mercy…In Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

The man that walks with God… Here are some instructions on how to walk with God…the man that walks with God always gets to His destination…Listen to what is written from the New Testament of Christ which is the New Agreement between God and creation…for God is not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance… 1 John 1:6-10 If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. 7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin. 8 If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we say we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us …If we confess our sins, then admit we were wrong and need forgiveness and cleansing…then Jesus says He will clean us from all the unrighteousness associated with our confessed sins… 1 John 2:15-17 Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16 For all that is in the world—the desires of the flesh and the desires of the eyes and pride of life—is not from the Father but is from the world. 17 And the world is passing away along with its desires, but whoever does the will of God abides forever. …Lust of the flesh the needs of the flesh get twisted and we try to justify ourselves…the desires of the eyes…what is the apple or desire of your eyes…to see Jesus or to see some other dream or thing…what is pride of life…it is I am better than others…I am not like other men…I do not…or I do these things like civilized people I am not a neanderthal like other humans… 1 John 5:14-15 And this is the confidence that we have toward him, that if we ask anything according to his will he hears us. 15 And if we know that he hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests that we have asked of him. Jesus said…ask…seek…knock…have you asked Jesus…have you been seeking Jesus…are you knocking on Jesus door…Jesus died and was raised so you would never have to choose a wrong or immoral thing again…and so you could confess your sins or wrongs and find forgiveness…will you call on Jesus today? Father please meet our deepest needs for forgiveness and mercy…help us confess our unconfessed sins…and may we prosper and be in health as our souls prospers…In Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

Have you ever wondered why people were told different things in order to be saved? Below is a list of things told people what they must do to be saved found written in the New Testament of Christ which is the New Agreement (covenant, testament) between God and creation... Acts 16:30-34 , “30 and brought them out and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? 31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus, and thou shalt be saved, thou and thy house. 32 And they spake the word of the Lord unto him, with all that were in his house. 33 And he took them the same hour of the night, and washed their stripes; and was baptized, he and all his, immediately. 34 And he brought them up into his house, and set food before them, and rejoiced greatly, with all his house, having believed in God.” Acts 2:37-38, “37 now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and the rest of the apostles, Brethren, what shall we do? 38 And Peter said unto them, Repent ye, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ unto the remission of your sins; and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 for to you is the promise, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call unto him.” Acts 22: , “6 And it came to pass, that, as I made my journey, and drew nigh unto Damascus, about noon, suddenly there shone from heaven a great light round about me. 7 And I fell unto the ground, and heard a voice saying unto me, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? 8 And I answered, who art thou, Lord? And he said unto me, I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom thou persecutest. 9 And they that were with me beheld indeed the light, but they heard not the voice of him that spake to me. 10 And I said, what shall I do, Lord? And the Lord said unto me, Arise, and go into Damascus; and there it shall be told thee of all things which are appointed for thee to do. 11 And when I could not see for the glory of that light, being led by the hand of them that were with me I came into Damascus. 12 And one Ananias, a devout man according to the law, well reported of by all the Jews that dwelt there, 13 came unto me, and standing by me said unto me, Brother Saul, receive thy sight. And in that very hour I looked up on him. 14 And he said, The God of our fathers hath appointed thee to know his will, and to see the Righteous One, and to hear a voice from his mouth. 15 For thou shalt be a witness for him unto all men of what thou hast seen and heard. 16 And now why tarriest thou? Arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on his name. “ On each of these conversion examples, the hearers each were told what they needed to hear in order to be saved. The jailer was told to believe on the Lord Jesus and he would be saved, and then was baptized. The sinners in Jerusalem were told to repent and be baptized for the remission of their sins and they would receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. These were not told to believe on the Lord Jesus. Saul that became the Apostle Paul was told to arise and be baptized and wash away his sins calling on the name of the Lord. All three obeyed what was told them in order to be saved. All three were told different things to do in order to be saved. It really boils to down to the roadmap to salvation. For example, if I was in America and in California, then I asked how do I get to Tennessee? The one giving directions would tell me, Go across the Rocky Mountains, across the continental divide, down into the Great Plains, then into Arkansas and across the Mississippi River then you will be in Tennessee. So I am traveling along and get to the Great Plains and ask again, how to do I get to Tennessee? They answer me, go into Arkansas, then go across the Mississippi River then you will be in Tennessee. So then when I get to Arkansas I ask the same question, how do I get to Tennessee? They answer oh, it is simple go across the Mississippi River and then you will be in Tennessee. You see in this illustration, I asked the same question, how do I get to Tennessee? I got three different answers based on where I was at. In the three conversions listed above in the book of Acts, they each received an answer based on where they were spiritually in order to be saved. All three went through the same steps in order to be saved. The jailer did not know who Jesus was and was told to believe on the Lord Jesus. Then it says the word was preached unto him and he was baptized. In the Jerusalem group, these people were told by Peter they has crucified Jesus the one that was to save them and they asked what must they do because they had killed the savior. They already believed and confessed that He was the savior, and they were simply told to repent and be baptized for the remission of their sins and they would receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. Saul, had a direct encounter with Jesus. There was no doubt he now believed after being struck blind, and he was fasting and praying for three days. Then according to the word from Jesus, Ananias came and told him what he must do in order to be saved, to arise and be baptized washing away his sins calling on the name of Jesus. All three were told exactly what then needed to hear in order to be saved, based on where they were in relation to the doctrine of salvation. In essence, every person who has never heard the message of Jesus doing us a favor by becoming a man and being born of a virgin, and then obeying the righteous demand of the Law never choosing to do evil and then laying his life down as a substitute for the sins of any who believe and obey him. This is the first step, to hear the message of the redeemer sacrifice. That Jesus died and was raised so you would never have to choose a wrong or evil things again and so all your wrongs can be forgiven. Then those who hear this message are left with a choice, to believe this message of Jesus dying on the cross for our sins, or not to. To those that believe they must then choose to obey what Jesus said in order to be cleansed. The next step then is repentance, it is a turning away from self and this world and a turning to Jesus and His New Agreement between God and mankind called the New Testament of Jesus Christ. Then the next step, is confession, we cannot be secret Christians. We must be willing to faithful to Jesus even to the point of death, in other words it cannot be just head knowledge of the facts. The devils believe and tremble. It is not belief that saves you but trusting that obeying Jesus words will saved you. We usually take a public confession right before baptism, by asking do you believe that Jesus is the only begotten son of God the savior of mankind? Then the next step based on their answer is to be baptized for the remission of sins and then they will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. Some people claim that you are trying to earn your salvation by submitting to baptism, but in reality or according to God and His word, you are being submissive allow God to make you into a New Creature by washing away your sins and filling you with the Holy Spirit. In essence, you die to yourself and are buried with Jesus in the watery grave of baptism being risen with Him in the faith of the operation of God. Col 2:11-12, “11 in whom ye were also circumcised with a circumcision not made with hands, in the putting off of the body of the flesh, in the circumcision of Christ; 12 having been buried with him in baptism, wherein ye were also raised with him through faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead.” Then you are a New Creature, 2 Cor 5:17, “17 Wherefore if any man is in Christ, he is a new creature: the old things are passed away; behold, they are become new.” Then we must remain faithful to the One that has called us to Himself unto death. Father please meet our souls deepest needs and heal our souls deepest wounds and forgive our sins that we may prosper and be in health as our souls prospers and we ask you to remove anything that hinders us from obeying the truth…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

Love the truth above all… John 14:6 Jesus said to him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. Jesus is not just a source of truth but He is the truth…no truth exists without Him…He is the Truth… John 8:31-32 So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed him, If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples, 32 and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free. Jesus will never ask you to do a wrong or immoral thing…he will lead in righteousness with the truth…He reveals the truth and then we must follow the revealed truth and do what is right… Luke 14:26-27 If anyone comes to me and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be my disciple. 27 Whoever does not bear his own cross and come after me cannot be my disciple. We must love Jesus above all…we must love the truth above all…because Jesus is the Truth…We must follow Jesus…the truth above our own feelings and intentions…when Jesus reveals the truth, we must do what is right by Him…not ourselves, not our moms, not our dads, not our preachers…but we must love the truth Jesus reveals and do it. 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12 The coming of the lawless one is by the activity of Satan with all power and false signs and wonders, 10 and with all wicked deception for those who are perishing, because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. 11 Therefore God sends them a strong delusion, so that they may believe what is false, 12 in order that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness. There is coming a person of no laws…no rules…and can do all kinds of powerful signs and wonders…this person will be using lies to deceive people…I imagine with magic and the forbidden things…the only way to overcome this strong delusion…which may manifest as a false Jesus…is to know the truth and be set free by obeying or following the truth not our situations. The only way to beat the liars is with the truth…Jesus…and Jesus said if you continue in my word you are my disciples indeed and you will know the truth and the truth will set you free…Love the Truth above all and then do what is right by God. Father, I pray you would instill in me a love for the truth that cannot be quenched and help me to renounce and repent of any lie I have believed or participated in…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

Jesus Christ died on the cross and was raised the third day…so you could choose right over wrong…good over evil…and his death and resurrection provided a way for all of wrongs to be forgiven and made right with God our Creator… 11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: 12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness… These people love a lie and not the truth. The only way to beat a lie is with the truth…you got to love the truth and do what is right when the truth is revealed…some people love to live a lie and share a lie instead of living in the truth of reality. 1 Corinthians 10:13-14 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: …in John’s Revelation…there is the hour of temptation that all of the earth will be tempted with…but Jesus gives us the choice to say no to what the devil offers you or does to you… but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. 14 Wherefore, my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry. James 4:7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

Can you receive the Holy Spirit any way… Listen to some words from the New Testament of Christ as it is written… Luke 11:13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him? …When Jesus was here on earth He said the Father could give the Holy Spirit to whoever asks Him… Acts 10:44-47 While Peter yet Spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word. 45 And they of the circumcision (Jews)…which believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles (Non-Jews…those without God) also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost. 46 For they heard them speak with tongues and magnify God. Then answered Peter, 47 Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we? …Cornelius and those there were given the Holy Spirit just like Peter an Apostle but Peter having the promise found in Matt 16:19…where Jesus said to Peter…I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven…Peter already having bound baptism with the first message of salvation in Jesus name after Jesus ascension (Acts 2:37-39) with a promise…told Cornelius and them…who had the Holy Spirit to be baptized into water or they would be found unfaithful… 1 John 5:7-9 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. 8 And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one. 9 If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for this is the witness of God which he hath testified of his Son. …If you find Jesus’ forgiveness then you have the blood…if you receive the Holy Spirit then you have the Spirit…but there is only one way to get the water and that is through baptism… The first message of salvation with a promise… Acts 2:37-40 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? 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. 39 For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call. 40 And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation. Mark 16:16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. 1 Peter 3:21 The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ: Jesus said He that believes and is baptized (water) will be saved not he who receives the Holy Spirit…Have you been baptized into water for the purpose of salvation in Christ? Yes, or no? Will you be baptized into Jesus Christ? Yes or no…If you have been baptized into Christ do you still confess your baptism? Yes or no.

Want to know the truth and not believe a lie… Listen to some words from Jesus from the New Testament Christ which is the new agreement between God and mankind which is in effect for today's time… …Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me… …If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free… You have to love the truth…follow the truth and do what's right once the truth is revealed to you…and more truth will be revealed to you. You have to be faithful with the truth if you want more truth revealed to you… ….Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God. Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God. ...If ye love me, keep my commandments. …the first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment. And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these. Jesus of Nazareth is the truth…He is the source of all truth. Jesus of Nazareth died on the cross and was raised from the dead three days later so you would never have to choose the wrong thing again so that you would never choose an evil thing again and he died and was raised so that you could have all your wrong things be forgiven but you have to do what's right once you learn the truth. Once the truth is revealed to you…you have to obey the truth or follow the truth and do what's right… Will you pray with me… Father help us discern a lie so we may abide in the truth and please remove any other thing that hinders us from obeying the truth…in Jesus of Nazareth’s name Amen.

Want to be in the new heaven or the earth? Listen to what the apostle Peter, one of the apostles of Jesus Christ. Said. In second Peter 3, beginning in verse 9…...the Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness, but his long-suffering towards us, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance...You hear that?...all of creation can come to repentance...and be rewarded in the new heaven or earth... …When the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night in which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise. And the elements shall met with fervent heat…in the earth also and the works that are there in shall be burned…If you can touch it, feel it, it will burn… …Seeing them that all these things shall be dissolved. What men are a persons? Ought you to be. In holy behavior and godliness, looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God. When the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved. And the elements shall melt with fervent heat. Nevertheless, we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new Earth wherein dwells righteousness. See friends everything here will be dissolved and God will make all things new…and we have a promise. There'll be a new heaven and a new Earth. Wherein dwells righteousness…and Jesus said blessed are the meek God, or blessed are the obedient…for they shall inherit the earth. …Listen to what is written in revelation….about the end of time… …he that overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God. And he shall be my son. But the fearful…those who are cowards, those who do not practice Jesus, and the unbelieving…those who do not believe Jesus died so they never have to choose the wrong thing, and the abominable. Those who know the truth but do what is wrong anyway, and the murderers. And the whoremongers and the sorcerers and the idolators in all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death. …So what happens is Jesus comes back right…We get a new heaven and new Earth and all those that are faithful to Jesus are rewarded in heaven and earth…in the new heaven and earth... And all those who rejected Jesus message…they never have to do a wrong thing because he already died for them and was raised from the dead as proof…that they never have to do a wrong thing and that all the wrong things can be forgiven and made right with their Creator. Do you believe Jesus died on the cross and rose from the grave three days later? Yes or no? Will you be baptized into Christ? Yes or no? Have you been baptized before? Yes or no? Will you pray with me, Father, help us to have a character fit for heaven and not the lake of fire in Jesus and Nazarene name. Amen.

Faith is knowledge in action… Listen to what is written in the New Testament of Christ, which is the new agreement between God and Mankind... …So then faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God… When you hear God's word, you have knowledge of what to do…now listen to Philippians 4:13, I can do all things. In Him that strengthens me…after you know what to do. You now to know Jesus will supply all you need to perform it. Listen to Philippians 419 and my God shall supply every need of yours according to His riches and glory in Christ Jesus. Now unto our God and Father be glory forever and ever…so once you hear God's will or His word, you know you can do it through the strength of God supplies and you know He'll supply every need to perform it. Now listen to what Jesus said. And He called unto Him the multitudes with His disciples, and said unto Him, if any man will come after Me, let him deny himself, take up his cross, and follow Me. For whosoever would save his life shall lose it, and whosoever shall lose his life, for My sake… …for Jesus sake…and the gospel or the good news: that He died on the cross…rose from the grave three days later…so you would never have to choose evil and all the evil would be forgiven…. …Whosoever shall lose his life for Jesus sake, and that good news sake shall save it…for what does it profit a man to gain the whole world, and to forfeit his life? And what should a man give in exchange for his life? For whosoever shall be ashamed of Me…Jesus… and My words in this adulterous and sinful. Generation the Son of man also shall be ashamed of him when He comes in the glory of His Father with the holy angels. You see, you got to put Jesus 1st and when you hear the good news that Jesus died and was raised. So you never have to choose the wrong thing. You're faced with the decision. To obey Him or not to? to act on that knowledge, in faith, or to ignore that knowledge. Will you pray with me… Father Please meet our souls deepest needs, heal our souls deepest wounds that we may prosper and be in health as our soul prospers in Jesus and Nazareth. Name Amen.

Faith makes it possible, not easy....listen to what Jesus said in the New Testament of Christ... All things therefore whatsoever you would that men should do unto you, even so do you also unto them: for this is the law and the prophets. Enter you in by the narrow gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many are they that enter in thereby. For narrow is the gate, and difficult the way, that leadeth unto life, and few are they that find it. And Jesus said unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, It is hard for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of heaven. And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God. And when the disciples heard it, they were astonished exceedingly, saying, Who then can be saved? And Jesus looking upon them said to them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible. Many people are like, check out my Ferrari. But Jesus is going to ask him. I don't need to see your car. How many people did you feed? And Jesus said he that believes is baptized shall be saved, but he that disbelieves shall be condemned. There are many that believe and many that follow, but it's difficult to do what God has said do to be saved. Will you pray with me… Father? Please meet our souls deepest needs, heal thy souls deepest wounds that we may prosper and be in health as our soul prosper. And Jesus and Nazareth name. Amen.
