OF SALVATION
To know God and be
ready for heaven, follow
these steps:
A. Admit you are a sinner
"There is no one
righteous, not even
one...for all have
sinned and fall short
of the glory of God"
(Romans 3:10,23)
B. Believe in Jesus
(put your trust in Him)
as your only hope of
salvation.
"For God so loved the
world that He gave His
only Son,that whoever
believes in Him shall not
perish but have eternal
life."(John 3:16)
C. Confess that Jesus is your
Lord!
"If you confess with your
mouth, 'Jesus is Lord'
and believe in your heart
that God raised Him from
the dead, you will be
saved."(Romans 10:9)

HAVE WE DONE ENOUGH...?
Some would say that we have done
enough. I say a resounding "NO."
Recent missions statistics as of 2006
tell us the following:
* Almost 6.6 billion people live on
earth.
* 1.2 billion people live on 23 cents
a day.
* 2 billion people have no electricity
* 80 percent of all people live in
substandard housing
* 1 billion people are without safe
drinking water
* Every 16 seconds someone dies
of hunger
* 57 million people died in 2006
* 10.5 million of those were children
under the age of 5
* 14 million were orphaned because
of HIV/AIDS
* 2 million children died because of
armed conflict during the last 10
years
MEANWHILE:
* $8 billion was spent on
cosmetics in America in 2005
* $11 billion was spent on ice
cream in Europe
* $17 billion was spent on pet food
in the U.S. and Europe
* $105 billion was spent on alcohol
in Europe
Again, have we done enough? Have
we given as much as we can?

THEODORE ROOSEVELT'S ADVICE
TO THE CRITICS:
It's not the critic who counts, not the man
who points out how the strong man
stumbles, or where the doer of the deeds
could have done better. The credit belongs
to the manwho is actually in the arena,
whose face is marred by dust and sweat
and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs
and comes up short, again and again,
because there is no effort without error
and shortcoming. Who does actually try
to do the deed, who knows the great
enthusiasm, the great devotion and spends
himself(or herself) in a worthy cause?
Far better it is to dare mighty things to win
glorious triumphs, even though checkered
by failure, than to rank with those poor
spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much
because they live in the gray twilight that
knows neither victory nor defeat!

SUCCESS IN A SMALL CHURCH
So this is our testimony: we found
success in a small church that was
not growing...In our study of the
Scriptures, Kent and I had learned
that we are not called to success
but to faithfulness. We realized
that the results are for God to and
eternity to reveal...
We're not suggesting that on that
day we had perfectly analyzed
success and put it all together.
But we had simply come to see
the basic plan for biblical success.
To the best of our ability we were
striving:
1. to be faithful(obedient to God's Word
and hardworking)
2. To serve God and others
3. To love God
4. To be believe He is(to believe what
we believe)
5. To pray
6. To pursue holiness
7. To develop positive attitude
This was our liberation and, may we
humbly say, our success!!!
