The Salvation Plan
First, read our "Affirmation Of Faith Page" on this website in order to fully understand our affirmations (what we believe) and our C. O. G. I. C. Doctrine. Return and read "The Salvation Plan".
Begin We believe that man was created holy by God, composed of body and soul. We believe that man, by nature, is sinful and unholy. Being born in sin, he needs to be born again, sanctified and cleansed from all sin by the blood of Jesus. From Ezekiel 28:11 - 19, Isaiah 14:12 - 20, and I Timothy 2:14 , Adam's sin, committed by the eating of the forbidden fruit from the tree of knowledge of good and evil, carried with it permanent pollution or depraved human nature to all his descendents (the original sin). Sin can now be defined as a volitional transgression against God and a lack of conformity to the will of God. We, therefore, conclude that man, by nature is sinful and has fallen from a glorious and righteous state from which he was created, and has become unrighteous and unholy. Man, therefore, must be restored to his state of holiness from which he has fallen by being born again (St. John 3:7).
Salvation deals with the application of the work of redemption with man's restoration to divine favor and communion with God. This redemptive operation of the Holy Ghost upon sinners is brought about by repentance toward God and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ which brings conversion, faith, justification regeneration, sanctification, and the baptism of the Holy Ghost: ~Repentance ( Read St. Matthew 3:1 - 2, 4:17; Acts 20:21) ~Faith ( Read Romans 1:17, 3:28; St. Matthew 9:22; Acts 26:18) ~Conversion & Repentance ( Read II Kings 5:15; II Chronicles 33:12 - 13; St. Luke19:8, 9; Acts 8:30)
The Following Graphic Pictorially Depicts The Literal Meaning Of The Preceding Conversation!
The Salvation Plan In Motion Jesus did not come into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world. Save the world from what? Jesus wants to save you from your sinful nature (from death & from yourself)!
So What Do You Have To Do? Confess & Believe! (Romans 3:23, 10:9; John 3:16)
John 3:16 Is The Theme Scripture Of This Web Site:
If you are now ready to give your heart to Jesus and accept Him as your personal savior,
Please Repeat The Following Prayer:
(You Are Now Confessing And Forsaking Your Sins) I repent from my sins and ask you for Your forgiveness. I believe in my heart that Jesus Christ is the son of God, and that You raised Him from the dead. I confess that Jesus is my Lord and Savior. I believe that through His shed blood, I will have eternal life. Please come into my heart and fill me with your Holy Spirit. Lead me and guide me so that my soul will reach heaven. Father, I pray this prayer in Jesus name. Amen!
Congratulations! According to John 3:16 If you sincerely repeated this prayer, and have accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as your personal savior, then you are now "Saved" (Born Again). You have just made the most important decision of your life! Christ has entered your heart and cleansed you from all your sins. This is the first step towards salvation. Hell is the reward for people who do not believe in Jesus; Heaven is the reward for those who accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. (Romans 3:23) You may go to our prayer page and fill out the form or email us. Just know that we will continue to lift you up in prayer as you begin your journey with the Lord.
Just know that regeneration is that act of God by which the principle of the new life is implanted in man, and the governing disposition of the soul is made holy and the first holy exercise of this new disposition is secured. Sanctification is that gracious and continuous operation of the Holy Ghost, by which He delivers the justified sinner from the pollution of sin, renews his whole nature in the image of God and enables him to perform good works. (Romans 6:4, 5:6; Colossians 2:12, 3:1)
Now, in order to develop your relationship with the Lord, ask in prayer for the Lord Jesus to lead you to a church where you can be taught the word of God from the Holy Bible; Also ask God to fill you with His Holy Spirit. Our intercessors will under gird you with a strong foundation of prayer. Our intercessory ministry will bombard heaven with the cares and concerns of you and humanity!
