1.

Right now this ministry is limited to online presence. James Milford, who has served as a pastor, mental health worker, and is currently licensed and ordained as a pastor at large. He has attended and served churches of several denominations. The goal is to become a more Christ like Christian not a specific denomination. Even though ordained, He believes in a community of believers to live life wi

th. There is one God (Deuteronomy 6:4), who is infinitely perfect (Matthew 5:48), existing eternally in three persons Father, Son, and Holy Spirit ( Matthew 28:19)

2. Jesus Christ is true God and true man (Philippians 2:6-11). He was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary(Luke 1:36-38). He died upon the cross, the just for the unjust (1 Peter 3:18), as a substitutionary sacrifice (Hebrews 2:29), and all who believe in Him are justified on the ground of His shed blood (Romans 5:9). He arose from the dead according to the Scriptures (Acts 2:23,24). He is now at the right hand of the Majesty on high as our great High Priest (Hebrews 8:1). He will come again to establish His kingdom of righteousness and peace (Matthew 26:64).


3. The Holy Spirit is a divine Person, (John 14:15-18) sent to indwell, guide, teach, empower the believer, ( John 16:3) and convince the world of sin, of righteousness, and of judgment (John 6:7-11).

4. The Old and New Testaments, inerrant as originally given, were verbally inspired by God and are a complete revelation of His will for the salvation of men. They constitute the divine and only rule of Christian faith and practice. ( 2 Peter 1:20-21, 2 Timothy 3:15-16)


5. Man was originally created in the image and likeness of God: (Genesis 1:27) he fell through disobedience, incurring thereby both physical and spiritual death. All men are born with a sinful nature, (Romans 3:23) are separated from the life of God, and can be saved only through the atoning work of the Lord Jesus Christ. (1 Corinthians 15:20-23) The portion of the impenitent and unbelieving is existence forever in conscious torment; (Revelation 21:8) and that of the believer, in everlasting joy and bliss. (Revelation 21:1-4)

6. Salvation has been provided through Jesus Christ for all men; and those who repent and believe in Him are born again of the Holy Spirit, receive the gift of eternal life, and become the children of God. (Titus 3:4-7)


7. It is the will of God that each believer should be filled with the Holy Spirit and be sanctified wholly, (1 Thessalonians 5:23) being separated from sin and the world and fully dedicated to the will of God, thereby receiving power for holy living and effective service. (Acts 1:8) This is a progressive experience wrought in the life of the believer subsequent to conversion. (Romans 6:1-14)

8. Provision is made in the redemptive work of the Lord Jesus Christ for the healing of the mortal body. (Matthew 8:16-17, Romans 8:11) Prayer for the sick and anointing with oil are taught in the Scriptures and are privileges for the church in this present age. (James 5:13-16)

9. The Church consists of all those who believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, are redeemed through His blood, and are born again of the Holy Spirit. Christ is the Head of the Body, the Church, (Ephesians 1:22,23) which has been commissioned by Him to go into all the world as a witness, preaching the Gospel to all nations. (Matthew 28:19-20) The Local church is a body of believers in Christ who are joined together for the worship of God, for the edification through the Word of God, for prayer, fellowship, the proclamation of the Gospel, and the observance of the ordinances of baptism and the Lord's Supper. (Acts 2:41- 47)


10. There shall be a bodily resurrection of the just and the unjust; for the former a resurrection unto life; (1 Corinthians 15:20-23) for the latter, a resurrection unto judgment. (John 5:28-29)

11. The second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ will be personal, visible, and pre-millennial. (Luke 21:27) This is the believer's hope and is a vital truth which is an incentive to holy living and faithful service (Titus 2:11-14).

Week 187

Day 4

Joh 12:20-35 Now there were certain Greeks among those that went up to worship at the feast. (21) These, therefore, came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and asked him, saying, “Sir, we want to see Jesus.” (22) Philip came and told Andrew, and in turn, Andrew came with Philip, and they told Jesus. (23) Jesus answered them, “The time has come for the Son of Man to be glorified. (24) Most certainly I tell you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains by itself alone. But if it dies, it bears much fruit.

Day 1 What did Jesus mean by it is time for the Son of Man to be glorified?

Day 2 Why the analogy of the grain of wheat? How does it apply to Jesus?

(25) He who loves his life will lose it. He who hates his life in this world will keep it to eternal life. (26) If anyone serves me, let him follow me. Where I am, there will my servant also be. If anyone serves me, the Father will honor him.

Day 3 What is the contrast between loving life (selfish living in this world) and that which leads to eternal life?

(27) “Now my soul is troubled. What shall I say? ‘Father, save me from this time?’ But for this cause I came to this time.

Day 4 For what cause did Jesus come?

(28) Father, glorify your name!” Then a voice came out of the sky, saying, “I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.” (29) The multitude therefore, who stood by and heard it, said that it had thundered. Others said, “An angel has spoken to him.” (30) Jesus answered, “This voice hasn’t come for my sake, but for your sakes. (31) Now is the judgment of this world. Now the prince of this world will be cast out. (32) And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself.” (33) But he said this, signifying by what kind of death he should die. (34) The multitude answered him, “We have heard out of the law that the Christ remains forever. How do you say, ‘The Son of Man must be lifted up?’ Who is this Son of Man?” (35) Jesus therefore said to them, “Yet a little while the light is with you. Walk while you have the light, that darkness doesn’t overtake you. He who walks in the darkness doesn’t know where he is going.

How to study the Bible?

Each time we study, we will answer the following questions:
1. What is the truth about God that we learn?
2. What is the truth about us that we learn?
3. How does my life line up with the truth I have learned?
4. Why does my life not line up with this truth?
We will consider all these elements of faith through
1. Prayerful meditation- asking for the revelation and enlightenment of the Holy Spirit
2. Daily review of the truths
In many people, who claim to be Christians, there is a huge disconnect between what the Scriptures plainly teach and what they claim to believe and how they live their lives. As we progress through our weekly studies, we will explore our personal beliefs and actions against God’s Word the Bible
Each week a passage or a section of the Bible will be posted with daily meditations.
The idea is that we will take small tidbits to meditate on and then combine into a foundation for belief and practice. Do not try to rush the process let yourself experience the truth of God.
1. Pray and invite the Holy Spirit to reveal truth to you.
2. Keep two notebooks with you as you meditate on Scripture.
a. The one is for any truth you feel is being revealed to you
b. The other is for what I call distractions – the things of life that pop into your head as to what you need to do today. Write them down to deal with later and return to your meditation
3. Meditate daily on the scripture passage – read it at least three times, reflex on it
4. Meditate on the daily focus
5. Thank God for his Word even if you do not feel you are getting anything out of it today.
1 Philippians 2: [10] That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; [11] And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. [12] Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. [13] For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.

Day 7

Joh 12:1-19 Then six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, who had been dead, whom he raised from the dead. (2) So they made him a supper there. Martha served, but Lazarus was one of those who sat at the table with him. (3) Mary, therefore, took a pound of ointment of pure nard, very precious, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair. The house was filled with the fragrance of the ointment.

Day 1 Mary anoints Jesus feet. Why do you think she did this courtesy?

(4) Then Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, one of his disciples, who would betray him, said, (5) “Why wasn’t this ointment sold for three hundred denarii, and given to the poor?” (6) Now he said this, not because he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and having the money box, used to steal what was put into it.

Day 2 300 days wages What was Judas true motive?

(7) But Jesus said, “Leave her alone. She has kept this for the day of my burial. (8) For you always have the poor with you, but you don’t always have me.”

Day 3 What did Jesus say about the sacrifice Mary made?

(9) A large crowd therefore of the Jews learned that he was there, and they came, not for Jesus’ sake only, but that they might see Lazarus also, whom he had raised from the dead. (10) But the chief priests conspired to put Lazarus to death also, (11) because on account of him many of the Jews went away and believed in Jesus.

Day 4 Why do you think the chief priest were so threatened by Jesus?
(12) On the next day a great multitude had come to the feast. When they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem, (13) they took the branches of the palm trees, and went out to meet him, and cried out, “Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, the King of Israel!”

Day 5 Hosanna means save us now. Why was the crowd calling this out in front of Jesus?

(14) Jesus, having found a young donkey, sat on it. As it is written, (15) “Don’t be afraid, daughter of Zion. Behold, your King comes, sitting on a donkey’s colt.” (16) His disciples didn’t understand these things at first, but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written about him, and that they had done these things to him.

Day 6 Jesus fulfilled prophesy with this. Why did the Disciples not recognize this at the time?

(17) The multitude therefore that was with him when he called Lazarus out of the tomb, and raised him from the dead, was testifying about it. (18) For this cause also the multitude went and met him, because they heard that he had done this sign. (19) The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, “See how you accomplish nothing. Behold, the world has gone after him.”

Day 7 The miracle of the raising of Lazarus drew people in but what did it do to the rulers?

[12] Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. [13] For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.

Week 186

Day 5

Joh 12:1-19 Then six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, who had been dead, whom he raised from the dead. (2) So they made him a supper there. Martha served, but Lazarus was one of those who sat at the table with him. (3) Mary, therefore, took a pound of ointment of pure nard, very precious, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair. The house was filled with the fragrance of the ointment.

Day 1 Mary anoints Jesus feet. Why do you think she did this courtesy?

(4) Then Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, one of his disciples, who would betray him, said, (5) “Why wasn’t this ointment sold for three hundred denarii, and given to the poor?” (6) Now he said this, not because he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and having the money box, used to steal what was put into it.

Day 2 300 days wages What was Judas true motive?

(7) But Jesus said, “Leave her alone. She has kept this for the day of my burial. (8) For you always have the poor with you, but you don’t always have me.”

Day 3 What did Jesus say about the sacrifice Mary made?

(9) A large crowd therefore of the Jews learned that he was there, and they came, not for Jesus’ sake only, but that they might see Lazarus also, whom he had raised from the dead. (10) But the chief priests conspired to put Lazarus to death also, (11) because on account of him many of the Jews went away and believed in Jesus.

Day 4 Why do you think the chief priest were so threatened by Jesus?
(12) On the next day a great multitude had come to the feast. When they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem, (13) they took the branches of the palm trees, and went out to meet him, and cried out, “Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, the King of Israel!”

Day 5 Hosanna means save us now. Why was the crowd calling this out in front of Jesus?

(14) Jesus, having found a young donkey, sat on it. As it is written, (15) “Don’t be afraid, daughter of Zion. Behold, your King comes, sitting on a donkey’s colt.” (16) His disciples didn’t understand these things at first, but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written about him, and that they had done these things to him. (17) The multitude therefore that was with him when he called Lazarus out of the tomb, and raised him from the dead, was testifying about it. (18) For this cause also the multitude went and met him, because they heard that he had done this sign. (19) The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, “See how you accomplish nothing. Behold, the world has gone after him.”

How to study the Bible?

Each time we study, we will answer the following questions:
1. What is the truth about God that we learn?
2. What is the truth about us that we learn?
3. How does my life line up with the truth I have learned?
4. Why does my life not line up with this truth?
We will consider all these elements of faith through
1. Prayerful meditation- asking for the revelation and enlightenment of the Holy Spirit
2. Daily review of the truths
In many people, who claim to be Christians, there is a huge disconnect between what the Scriptures plainly teach and what they claim to believe and how they live their lives. As we progress through our weekly studies, we will explore our personal beliefs and actions against God’s Word the Bible
Each week a passage or a section of the Bible will be posted with daily meditations.
The idea is that we will take small tidbits to meditate on and then combine into a foundation for belief and practice. Do not try to rush the process let yourself experience the truth of God.
1. Pray and invite the Holy Spirit to reveal truth to you.
2. Keep two notebooks with you as you meditate on Scripture.
a. The one is for any truth you feel is being revealed to you
b. The other is for what I call distractions – the things of life that pop into your head as to what you need to do today. Write them down to deal with later and return to your meditation
3. Meditate daily on the scripture passage – read it at least three times, reflex on it
4. Meditate on the daily focus
5. Thank God for his Word even if you do not feel you are getting anything out of it today.
1 Philippians 2: [10] That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; [11] And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. [12] Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. [13] For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.
