Jesus said, “My kingdom is not of this world.” So, what is it?

That’s in John 8: 36. It is a solemn thing to die but a much more solemn thing to be alive in these times in which we live in for the people identified in prophecy as “they that keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus” and “have the Spirit of prophecy, which is the testimony of Jesus.”

Rev. 14: 12; 19: 10.

    “Everything in the world is in agitation. The signs of the times are ominous. Coming events cast their shadows before. The Spirit of God is withdrawing from the earth, and calamity follows calamity by sea and by land. There are tempests, earthquakes, fires, floods, murders of every grade. Who can read the future? Where is security? There is assurance in nothing that is human or earthly. Rapidly are men ranging themselves under the banner they have chosen. Restlessly are they waiting and watching the movements of their leaders

THREE SURPRISES IN HEAVEN IF WE GET THERE

January 8 2020

MID-WEEK MESSAGE FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:

THREE SURPRISES IN HEAVEN IF WE GET THERE.

– “Not everyone who says to Me, Lord, Lord, shall enter the kingdom of heaven.” See Matt. 7:21-23 first. “

A Christian once said that when he reached heaven he expected to meet with three causes of wonder. (1) He would wonder to find some that he did not expect to be there.(2) He would wonder not to see some that he expected to meet, and lastly, he would wonder most to find so in worthy a sinner as himself in the Paradise of God.

The “Fullness of Time” Never Specified Specific Time

Friday Morning Manna

December 27, 2019
By Nathaniel Fajardo                                                                                                                                                           email:[email protected]

The “Fullness of Time” Never Specified Specific Time

      “But When the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the [condemnation] of the law, that we might receive the adoption as sons.”  

Gal. 4: 4, 5, N.K.J.V.

Sent forth by the Father, the only-begotten Son of God was “born of a woman” and became the Son of man “when the fullness of time had come,” not a “twinkling of an eye” earlier or later. As the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End, He was the subject of the first and beginning of all promises and propheciesof the Bible, coming first as “the seed” (Gen. 3: 15) and at last, “the Lord Jesus,” “King of kings and Lord of lords” in His glorious second coming!

December 25, 2019

MID-WEEK MESSAGE FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:

WHO IS THIS CHILD IN SWADDLING CLOTHES?

Christ’s first disciples, filled with the Spirit of Inspiration, answer this question. In eloquent strains they repeat the prophecies concerning Christ: ADAM will tell you, it is the Seed of the woman that shall bruise the serpent’s head. Gen. 3:15.

Ask ABRAHAM, he will tell you, It is “Melchizedek King if Salem, King of peace. Gen.14:18. JACOB will tell you, He is Shiloh of the tribe of Judah. ISAIAH will tell you, “Immanuel,” “Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.” Isa.7:14; 9:6.

IGNORANCE NO EXCUSE

December 18, 2019

MID-WEEK MESSAGE FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:

IGNORANCE NO EXCUSE.

To neglect is to reject. Negligence is a serious problem. “The truth and the glory of God are inseparable; it is impossible for us, with the Bible within our reach, to honor God with erroneous opinions.

Many claim that it matters not what one believes, if his life is only right. But the life is molded by the faith. If light and truth is within our reach, and we neglect to improve the privilege of hearing and seeing it, we virtually reject it; we are choosing darkness than light.

HOW DANIEL OVERCAME AND WAS BLESSED WITH WISDOM

December 16, 2019

FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:

HOW DANIEL OVERCAME AND WAS BLESSED WITH WISDOM.

“When Daniel was in Babylon, he was beset with temptation of which we never dreamed, and he realized he must keep his body under. He purposed (chose, decided, committed, willed) in his heart that he would not drink if the king’s wine or eat of his dainties. (Dan. 1:8).

He knew that in order to come off a victor, he must have clear mental PERCEPTIONS, that he might DISCERN between right and wrong. While he was working on his part, God worked also, and gave him ‘knowledge and skill in all learning and wisdom: and Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams.” Dan. 17.

HOW WE BECOME CONQUERORS

December 11, 2019

MID-WEEK MESSAGE FROM YOUR PASTOR’S DESK:

HOW WE BECOME CONQUERORS.

Jesus said, “I am the true Vine. . . . Every branch that does not bear fruit is cast away, and every branch that bears fruit He PRUNES, that it may bear MORE fruit. . . .By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples.” Matt. 15:1,2,8, NKJV.

What kind of fruits? See Gal.5:22-26. When your faith wavers and are tempted to give up, remember God permits divinely-calibrated, divinely-measured-and-controlled obstacles and trials in order to test, develop and perfect faith, not discourage us! Thus: “When we are hedged about on every side, this is the time above all others to trust in God and in the power of the Holy Spirit.
