God’s Plan for Salvation
BELIEVE IN JESUS (Not simply that He exists, but trust Him to be your Savior.) Mark 16:15, 16; John 6:68-69

REPENT (or turn away from sin by an act of your own will—no excuses, no strings attached. Decide now to live for God.) Luke 13:3; Acts 2:38

CONFESS (before witnesses that Jesus Christ is the Son of the living God and your personal Lord.) Matthew 10:32; Romans 10:9

BE BAPTIZED (immersed into Christ. The Father will forgive you, the Son will cleanse you, the Holy Spirit will live in you.) Acts 22:16; Acts 2:38; Romans 6:3-9

LIVE FOR CHRIST (and serve Him in a faithful New Testament church.)

“Knowing God Through- Prayer”

A church that prays together….stays together!!

You MUST recognize who you are speaking to in reverance and awe.

Praying together, shapes the church.

Mother Teresa said, “Prayer is putting one’s self in the hands of God”

Why do we pray at church? To further connect to God. We depend on Him.

We learn dependence by praying together.

There is purpose and progression of our prayers.

We offer seven prayers during our service to draw us closer to Him and Him closer to us.

Worshiping on your own doesn’t draw all together and strengthen each other.

“Knowing God Through-Worship”

Worship in the context of singing!🎼🎶

Singing is an important part of interacting with God.

We worship because of His mercy.

I can’t repay Him, but I can worship Him!

Worship means to bow down in humility and adoration.

There is Joy in singing to the Lord!!

Singing is in us! We all do it whether alone or with others.

Wait until you get to hear God’s voice singing with the Angels!

“Knowing God Through-Communion”

Jesus call us to a meal with Him. The Passover meal where he told that He fulfills prophecy and is who He is!!

“This is My body”. “This is My blood”.

Do this in remembrance of Me.

He’s inviting us into a new life.

Blessed are those who are invited and accepted!

We are invited to the wedding feast as His bride. He is coming back. The Lord’s Supper gives us this new Life so others can also be invited.

His Love removes our sin.

When He returns, we will get to eat with Him, fulfilling His promise.

He keeps His Promises!!

Will you be ready?

Knowing God Through-Baptism”

Baptism of one… is a community experience. We all celebrate in it.

Nicodemus knew Jesus was the Way, but puzzled by earthly concepts. Listen to how Jesus clears it up.

A new birth…..a rebirth.

A connection to earthly life and a spiritual life.

We become a Child of God being renewed through baptism.

What we are missing, is not on earth. It’s His Spirit!!

“Show Hospitality”

If John wrote his letter to you……..
“….. to my dear friend Gaius (insert your name)….. whom I love in the truth”

Don’t neglect the invitation to be before His throne!

Find a friend that rests in His presence to help you learn how to.

Do not imitate what is evil but what is truth!

We need to follow people that are right with Him and have people following us as we follow them.

It’s our responsibility to be more like Jesus

“Don’t Run Ahead”

Love is walking in obedience to His commands.

That’s still true today.

His Truth should live through us.

Without love and truth, we are vulnerable.

Love God, love the Son, protect the Truth.

Do not ‘add’ to the Truth. (Revelation 22:18,19)

Tell me the old, old story…. Not something new…. Tell the Truth of Jesus.

Who can save you?

Do not believe ‘the new’. Keep it out of your head and home. Protect at all cost from false teachers.

“Knowing God By His Love - Keep Yourself from Idols”

Only by Jesus can we come before God.

Am I pursuing Jesus’ will or our own?

Give yourself over to God’s will.

“Not my will…. But Your will be done”

Denying the Father and Son is the Antichrist!

If you’re in Christ, the devil has no power over you.

Will you believe in Jesus? Believe He is who He said He is.

“Knowing God By His Love - Believe God’s Testimony”

What do you do when someone calls you out on the truth?

God! Don’t send me because…….. ?

Are you ignoring His call?

Your burden may not be heavy, if you know why you’re carrying it.

The weight of telling the world about Jesus is heavy.

The weight of sin…. is a burden.

God testifies to the Truth.

Baptism marks the beginning of our new life!

Do you know eternal Life??

Do His commands offend you?
