MIRACLE
TESTIMONY
When
all hope was gone
JESUS
HEALED ME
OF CANCER
by:
Andrew Kakepetum, Sandy Lake, Ontario
"He
was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our
iniquities, the chastisement of our peace was upon Him and with
His stripes we are healed." (Isaiah 53:5)
I
RECEIVED A WONDERFUL MIRACLE - JESUS HEALED ME OF CANCER
My
name Andrew Kakepetum of Sandy Lake, Ontario. In 2001, I was
examined and treated medically for a sickness in the area of my
pancreas.
I
WAS DIAGNOSED WITH GALLOPING CANCER
The
next year, the specialists made a definite diagnosis: I had
galloping cancer. The doctor said that I should have
radiation treatment.
We
called Pastor Max Solbrekken in Edmonton for prayer - the only
hope I had left was a miracle from Jesus. Pastor Solbrekken
was in Hawaii having crusades, but spoke to us several times and
prayed powerful prayers over the telephone. Pastor Max
Solbrekken told us that God was a MIRACLE WORKER and that God has
promised in His Word to answer our prayers... Pastor Solbrekken
told us to continue praying and to expect a miracle.
WE
PRAYED SEEKING GOD FOR A MIRACLE
I
was getting weaker and weaker and having a hard time walking, but
my wife Jessica and I decided to draw closer to God by reading His
word and praying together. Often we would rise at 3:00 am to
seek God.
We
prayed for a miracle, a miracle healing. We had anointed a
certain chair with oil in the name of Jesus. I would sit in
that chair during these times of prayer and seeking God.
I
CONTINUED TO GET WORSE BUT WE CONTINUED TO PRAY AND SEEK GOD
One
time I felt there was no hope and I told Jessica some things about
our business affairs. Jessica refused to listen. She
said she wasn't going to let me die and that God would keep His
Word to us and that I would receive a miracle of healing.
We
were in turmoil in the summer of 2002 because I was getting worse.
We had continued to pray and yet I had not received a miracle.
We had asked Pastor Solbrekken to be our Camp speaker that summer.
I was waiting for Pastor Solbrekken to pray for me again. We
had a wonderful time as God's presence was so real.
I
WENT TO THE DOCTOR THAT SUMMER AND THE DOCTOR COULD NOT FIND ANY
CANCER - I HAD RECEIVED A MIRACLE
Later
that summer I began to feel stronger and was walking much better.
When I went in to see my doctor, he gave me the GOOD NEWS.
The doctor could not find any CANCER. It was gone!!
Praise God forever. God gave me a miraculous healing and I
give Him all the praise and glory.
I
came home with my son Eddy. When I walked into the house,
Jessica was sitting at the table. I looked at her and said,
"Do you know what the doctor told me?"
Then
she got up and walked toward me and I still didn't say
anything. When she came real close, I told her, "The
doctor has confirmed that he could not find even A TRACE OF
CANCER."
We
hugged each other, and started to cry and praise the Lord Jesus
Christ. We thanked God and praised him for His great
faithfulness and blessing toward us. We thanked Him for this
wonderful miracle healing that He had given me. Praise the
Lord !
GOD
IS A MIRACLE WORKER - Have
faith in God because with God all things are possible !
DON'T
EVER GIVE UP HOPE. Jesus
Christ will answer your prayers. Jesus Christ will give you
a miracle, but you must have faith and be diligent to him.
GOD'S
MIRACLES
are for today!
by: Pastor Max Solbrekken,
D.D.
The
Bible says: "Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, and to day,
and for ever." (Hebrews 13:8)
MARTIN
LUTHER the great reformer said,
"How often has it happened, and still does, that devils have
been driven out in the name of Christ; also by calling on His Name
and prayer, and the sick have been healed."
JOHN
WESLEY, founder of the
Methodist Church, stated: "I believe that God can open the
eyes of the blind, cause the lame to walk, and the deaf to hear,
if men will have faith in God; stand on the word of God, and pray
according to the faith that God hath given them, God will do the
things He said He would because He is a never-changing God."
A.B.
SIMPSON, founder of Christian
& Missionary Alliance, declared, "If ever there was an
age where the world needed the witness of God's supernatural
working, it is in this day of unbelief and Satan's power."
"Therefore,
we may expect, as the end approaches, that the Holy Ghost will
work in the healing of sickness, in the casting out of demons, in
remarkable answers to prayer, in special and wonderful
providences, and in such form as may please His sovereign will to
an unbelieving world."
Dr.
CHARLES H. MAYO, Mayo Brothers
Clinic, said: "Christian healing has passed beyond the stage
of experience and its value cannot be questioned. Spiritual
healing is no longer the hope of a few but the belief and practice
of a large and rapidly increasing number of person."
JESUS
CHRIST said: "If thou
canst believe; all things are possible to him that believeth."
(Mark 9:23)
"And
these signs shall follow them that believe; In My name shall they
cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall
take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not
hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall
recover." (Mark 16:17-18)
MAX
SOLBREKKEN, God's humble
servant, says: "That God is a healer is no secret. That
his Word has amazing saving, healing and creative power is well
known. But that his power to save, heal and deliver is
readily available at absolutely NO COST, is not widely
known."
Most
people believe that there are strings attached, a price to pay,
good works to do, a guru to follow, and that God favors only a
few.
Divine
healing is a gift from God to those who are fearful, hurting, sick
and diseased. And He offers it freely through the death &
resurrection of His Son Jesus Christ, by Whom He has defeated sin,
sickness, fear, death & Satan. GLORY TO GOD FOREVER.
My
Life was a Mess - no hope
THEN
JESUS HEALED ME!
by: Adolph Bulmann,
Valleyview, AB
"He
was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our
iniquities, the chastisement of our peace was upon Him and with
His stripes we are healed." (Isaiah 53:5)
MY
LIFE WAS A TOTAL MESS - THERE WAS NO HOPE, BUT JESUS CHRIST HEALED
ME - JESUS GAVE ME A MIRACLE
My
name is Adolph Bulmann, of Valleyviw, Alberta and I thank my Lord
and Saviour Jesus Christ for his healing miracle on my life.
I want to give my miracle testimony of what He has done in my
life.
The
Bible says: "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt
be saved and thy house." (Acts 16:31) And that is what
I did. I BELIEVED.
We
all have our ups and downs, valleys and hills, sickness and our
rejoicings. It was by the Blood of Jesus that I was saved and
healed! We have to get back to God and be filled with His Spirit.
PASTOR
MAX SOLBREKKEN WAS PREACHING AT EVANGEL PENTECOSTAL TEMPLE AND THE
DEVIL WAS TRYING TO STOP ME FROM GOING
About
a year ago, I heard that Pastor
Solbrekken was coming to Evangel
Pentecostal Temple.
The
devil was putting up a strong fight to stop me from attending the
miracle crusades. The devil didn't want me to go. The
devil told me that it was useless to go. I had taken my Mom
and Dad to Max Solbrekken's miracle crusades in the Kelowna
crusade and witnessed for Jesus years ago. Since then things
were not good with me.
The
devil kept telling me that I couldn't change and it was useless to
even try. Satan keep telling me to forget about trying to
get help and that going to the Max Solbrekken miracle crusades
would do me no good.
I
began to think that Satan was right. Suddenly I realized
that only Jesus is the 'GREAT I AM; and all things are possible
with God. I had been tormented by the devil for years and
needed a miracle of deliverance.
I
was born in Germany and had witnessed the devil and witchcraft in
action since I was young. During my youth my life was
surrounded with strife, torment and witchcraft.
I
KNEW I NEEDED A MIRACLE HEALING FROM JESUS CHRIST TO BE RELEASED
FROM THE BINDS OF SATAN
The
day of the crusades I was in a fight with the devil. I
realized that only the Blood of Jesus could liberate me, only a
miracle healing could release me from the binds of Satan.
Jesus
said, "The spirit indeed is willing but the flesh is
weak." (Matthew 26:41)
I
wanted God in my spirit, but my flesh was weak. I am so glad
that the Spirit of God was willing to save and heal me. I am
so glad that I went to the Max Solbrekken Miracle Crusade and did
not listen to the Devil's evil little lies.
I
WAS A VERY SICK MAN AND I NEED A HEALING MIRACLE FROM JESUS
CHRIST.
I
was a very sick man. I was sick spiritually, I was sick
mentally and I was very sick physically. I had been drained
of all strength and could not renew my energy.
I
had to use a cane and I could not get around without it. I
had tried everything there was to get better - but nothing helped.
I was getting worse every day.
I
MADE THE DECISION TO GO TO THE MIRACLE CRUSADE
I
decided that I was going to go to the crusade. I had tried
everything else and it hadn't worked and I knew that the last
chance I would have would be a miracle healing from Jesus Christ.
After
Pastor Solbrekken had finished his message, he moved toward me,
saying, "Stand up Sir, God is going to heal you."
All
I remember is taking a couple of steps towards him and grabbing
him. Then I went down on the floor and what a wonderful
feeling when God entered into my body.
When
Pastor Solbrekken prayed for me, I lost everything. I
couldn't feel anything except the Spirit of God working in my life
and body. I can't remember a thing that happened except that
my spirit was crying out to God for help. My spirit was
crying out to God for a miracle, a healing miracle of my mind,
body and soul.
Suddenly,
such a joy, peace and warmth came over my body. It was so
beautiful I am unable to describe it. I knew at that moment
that Jesus Christ was giving me a miracle healing.
It
you have ever experienced God's miracle healing power, you will
know what I am talking about. When the Spirit of God takes
control of your spirit and body. You feel such great love
coming into your body. If you don't have love, you don't
have anything. We can have all the fruits of the Spirit, but
if we do not have LOVE, we have nothing.
JESUS
CHRIST COMPLETELY HEALED ME WITH HIS WONDERFUL HEALING POWER - I
RECEIVED A MIRACLE!
I
went back to the doctor after the Crusade. The doctor
said I had regained my strength and was very happy with my
improvement. I feel wonderful and I thank God everyday for
his healing miracles on my life and my body.
GOD
GAVE ME A WONDERFUL MIRACLE
by: Peter Eppinga,
Abbotsford, B.C.
GOD
SAVED ME FROM DEMONIC POWERS
God
saved me from the bondage of the devil and his demonic powers.
In my past life while serving the world, I fell victim to alcohol,
parties, sex, pride, riches of the world and drug dealing. I
used to think that I was so connected to the Hell's Angels and
other drug dealers that no one could ever hurt me. Not even
Satan himself. It was like I thought I was a part of the
Mafia. But of course, Satan, the father of lies, made me
think these thoughts that were totally untrue.
I
would use my car to transport $3000 worth of drugs to grown men
and kids at my school. I also did a lot of fraud by using
fake cheques to buy expensive items in big retail stores. I
had gold rings on all my fingers, a thick gold bracelet and golf
necklace with a $ sign pendant. Satan let me think that I
was the coolest person in the world but all he really wanted to do
is destroy my life and he wants to destroy yours too.
While
my Dad was an evangelist working with God, I would still present
myself to the world this way. So God judged me in my actions
by letting me flip a car into a 20 foot ditch merely missing two
trees and a huge boulder that would have crushed our heads if we
would have landed on it. While the car flipped over God
showed me that I was going to be okay!
After
this accident I had the choice to choose God and thank Him for
sparing my life and body from harm. I never did.
Instead I quit all the drug dealing but kept on partying even more
heavily.
Satan
would not let me see the light but God was still protecting me all
the time. When I drank alcohol, I would try to look cool for the
teenagers that went out to parties. I used to drink a 26 oz
of Crown Royal whiskey all by myself and show off all the gold I
had.
Everyone
at the party would think I was so cool, but it was the devil
deceiving me. My friends and girls would shout,
"Peter's here" when I would walk into the party as if I
was some kind of celebrity.
That
is how cool this world thought I was. For a 17 year old kid
to drink a 26 oz. by himself and not get hurt shows that God has
great mercy and protects us from evil all the time. But
never forget, when you do these things that Satan can harm you and
ruin your life too if you keep on giving into him.
I
remember when I thought that there was no hope for me, to ever
stop going to parties and nightclubs."
 BUT
THERE IS HOPE AND HIS NAME IS JESUS CHRIST
That
deceiving Satan blinded my eyes from seeing the light of Jesus
Christ by having my cell phone ring fifteen times a night on a
Friday and Saturday with my friends calling me to ask where to go
for the parties."
I
would tell them where to go; usually I would have a map where the
party was going to be. Satan used me to start parties for
him and I did not even know it, because he had my eyes blinded.
Now
it is time to get to the wonderful news of the Lord Jesus Christ
and how He saved me.
The
night before my graduation, I went out doing my normal partying on
the weekend. A non-drinker was driving me for one of the
first times. We were in a four door Honda Civic.
As
the night began, I thought that nothing at all was going to happen
to me because I was hanging out with geeks that didn't drink as
hard as I did. The night started off as usual. Before going
home, we decided to have one last drag race.
We
got up to 90 km/h and all of a sudden we heard a huge BANG!
We were hit from the side of the car - and wouldn't you
know it - by a biker.
As
soon as we collided, the car started to swerve and we began to
flip upside down into a ditch.
As our car was rolling, I thought, "Oh, not another
accident and then another story to brag about to my friends."
This
time, however, I did not sense that I would be alright.
We landed upside down in a swamp and instantly there was
water in the car and all I had was the breath that I went down
with and when the water hit me, it was freezing cold.
I
began to struggle for life. I felt around and I could feel
my friend's hat and I pictured it being a red hat. I knew I
was going to die! I felt the presence of death and I
couldn't understand it.
I
began to gasp for air and all I did was choke on water. It
was one of the most frightening feelings anyone can experience.
I then began to say, "I'm going to die tonight. I can't
believe it." I then began to repent towards God and I
said to Him, "If you ever let me out of this car tonight
God, I promise I will live for you and stop living this life and
fight for you."
After
I said this, I thought to find my self belt but when you are
upside down suspended in water, it isn't so easy. God's
Angels calmed me all the way through until I found it and I
clicked it and was released. Then I had to find air in the
car. There was a small air pocket where the back window and
the ledge of the back seat meet and this is where I got all the
air I needed.
"Two
of my friend's heads were also in that air pocket with me to get
our final breaths and find our way out of the car. There had
been four people in the car but the driver, Jason Prince, fell out
of the driver side window. My friend, Mike Hatch, found the
way out through the open window on the driver side. When he
escaped, it was just myself and Brandon Grey still in the car.
As
I looked into Brandon's eyes, I saw tremendous fear. We both
thought that we were going to die of suffocation. We grabbed
on to each other and said our last words. All of a sudden I
felt a hand grab my foot violently.
Instantly,
I knew God was going to spare my life! From there on, I knew the
way out of the car. By now the oxygen in the air pocket was
running out.
When
oxygen runs out, you begin to realize how important the breath you
now have is. I then went under water to get out but I got
stuck underneath the seat and the ceiling because I was too big,
so I began choking again.
I
got back into the air pocket with the help of my friend Brandon.
Then, I took my last breath of air and went down under water and
pushed my way through the car seats and through the driver's side
window. Brandon Grey followed me.
These
four were the geeks that I thought weren't cool enough, but
because they didn't drink, they had the ability to get out of the
car.
As
for the biker and the Hell's Angels that I thought were so
cool, the biker tried to fight us after he saw that we almost
died. He did not care for life at all. God instantly
showed me that these people are in such bondage, due to the
demonic powers that run their life. I pray for all their
souls and I hope that they and all my friends will see the light
of Jesus Christ one day!
I
believe this testimony can help a lot of people with their walk
with God."
Do
not let Satan rule your life because he will ruin your life!
God
is awesome and my life is so much better now that I'm serving Him
and not the world. Take it from someone that has seen both
sides.
I
was the most popular kid and thought that I would never give my
life to God because I THOUGHT I HAD IT ALL. Parties,
popularity, sex, and money - I thought I was the man, but I
wasn't!
I
had one experience of God's power and my old life instantly
changed. I would now choose
God over anything this world offers!

HOW
A DISTRESSED WIDOW
was saved from suicide
by a little boy
This
particular Sunday afternoon, as it came time for the Pastor and
his son to go to the streets with their tracts, it was very cold
outside as well as pouring down rain.
The
boy bundled up in his warmest and driest clothes and said;
"OK dad, I'm ready." His Pastor dad asked, "Ready
for what?" "Dad, it's time we gather our tracts together
and go out." Dad responds, "Son, it's very cold outside
and it's pouring down rain."
The
boy gives his dad a surprised look, asking "But Dad, aren't
people still going to Hell, even though it's raining?" Dad
answers, "Son, I am not going out in this weather."
Despondently, the boy ask, "Dad, can I go? Please?"
His
father hesitated for a moment then said, "Son, you can go.
Here are the tracts, be careful son." "Thanks Dad!"
And with that, he was off and out into the rain.
This
eleven-year-old boy walked the streets of the town going door to
door and handing everybody he met in the street a Gospel Tract.
After
two hours of walking in the rain, he was soaking, bone-chilled wet
and down to his VERY LAST TRACT.
He
stopped on a corner and looked for someone to hand a tract to, but
the streets were totally deserted. Then he turned toward the first
home he saw and started up the sidewalk to the front door and rang
the doorbell.
He
rang the bell, but nobody answered. He rang it again and again,
but still no one answered. He waited but still no answer.
Finally,
this eleven-year-old trooper turned to leave, but something
stopped him. Again, he turned to the door and rang the bell and
knocked loudly on the door with his fist. He waited, something
holding him there on the front porch. He rang again, and this time
the door slowly opened. Standing in the doorway was a very sad-
looking elderly lady.
She
softly asked "What can I do for you son?" With radiant
eyes and a smile that lit up her world, this little boy said,
"Ma'am, I'm sorry if I disturbed you, but I just want to tell
you that JESUS REALLY DOES LOVE YOU,
and I came to give you my very last Gospel Tract which will tell
you all about JESUS and His great LOVE."
With
that, he handed her his last tract, and turned to leave. She
called to him as he departed. "Thank you, son! And God Bless
You!"
Well,
the following Sunday morning in church Pastor Dad was in the
pulpit. As the service began, he asked, "Does anybody have a
testimony or want to say anything?"
Slowly,
in the back row of the church, an elderly lady stood to her feet.
As she began to speak, a look of glorious radiance came from her
face, "No one in this church knows me. I've never been here
before.
You
see, before last Sunday I was not a Christian. My husband passed
on some time ago, leaving me totally alone in this world. Last
Sunday, being a particularly cold and rainy day, it was even more
so in my heart that I came to the end of the line where I no
longer had any hope or will to live.
So
I took a rope and a chair and ascended the stairway into the attic
of my home. I fastened the rope securely to a rafter in the roof,
then stood on the chair and fastened the other end of the rope
around my neck.
 Standing
on that chair, so lonely and broken hearted I was about to leap
off, when suddenly the loud ringing of my doorbell downstairs
startled me. I thought, I'll wait a minute, and whoever it is will
go away.
"I
waited and waited, but the ringing doorbell seemed to get louder
and more insistent, and then the person ringing also started
knocking loudly.
I
thought to myself again, "Who on earth could this be?! Nobody
ever rings my bell or comes to see me."
I
loosened the rope from my neck and started for the front door, all
the while the bell rang louder and louder.
When
I opened the door and looked I could hardly believe my eyes, for
there on my front porch was the most radiant and angelic little
boy I had ever seen in my life.
His
SMILE, oh, I could never describe it to you! And the words that
came from his mouth caused my heart that had long been dead, TO
LEAP TO LIFE as he exclaimed with a cherub-like voice,
"Ma'am, I just came to tell you that JESUS
REALLY DOES LOVE YOU."
Then
he gave me this Gospel Tract that I now hold in my hand. As the
little angel disappeared back out into the cold and rain, I closed
my door and read slowly every word of this Gospel Tract.
Then
I went up to my attic to get my rope and chair. I wouldn't be
needing them any more. You see, "I am now a Happy Child of
the KING and since the address of your church was on the back of
this Gospel Tract, I have come here to personally say THANK YOU TO
God's little angel who came just in the nick of time and, by so
doing, spared my soul from eternity in hell."
There
was not a dry eye in the church. And as shouts of praise and honor
to THE KING resounded off the very rafters of the building, Pastor
Dad descended from the pulpit to the front pew where the little
angel was seated.
He
took his son in his arms and sobbed uncontrollably. Probably no
church has had a more glorious moment, And probably this universe
has never seen a Papa that was more filled with love & honor
for his son...Except for One.
This
Father also allowed His Son to go out into a cold and dark world.
He received His Son back with joy unspeakable, and as all of
heaven shouted praises and honor to The King, The Father sat His
beloved Son on a throne far above all principality and power and
every name that is named.
James
1:27 - Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is
this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and
to keep himself unspotted from the world.
A
MESSAGE FROM INGVAR SOLBREKKEN
(Max's Father) Written
in 1959.
Jesus
said, 'But
seek ye first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all
these things shall be added unto you."
(Matthew 6:33)
'Attending
Church' is not enough! One should make every effort to find a
church where there are signs, wonders and miracles - where God's
power is recognized.
How
else can you prove it is 'the Church'? St. Paul stated that God
'has placed miracles' in the Church. (1 Corinthians 12:28) He
commanded that we turn away from those who have 'a form of
godliness and deny the power of God'. (1 Timothy 3:5-7)
Surely,
Jesus Christ will return for the same glorious Church (Ephesians
5:27) which He had in New Testament times! Will you, my friend, be
a part of His glorious Church or a cold, lukewarm or dead church?
The Bible says, "Be ye holy, for I am holy, saith the
Lord". (1 Peter 1:16) Amen.
HOW
DO I INVITE
JESUS CHRIST INTO MY LIFE?
Pray
to God, a prayer - from your heart.
Tell
Him that you are a sinner and that you need forgiveness.
Tell him that you believe Jesus Christ died for your sins.
Tell him that you are willing to change, to turn away from sin.
Ask Jesus Christ to come into your heart and life and be your
personal Saviour.
"But
as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons
of God, even to them that believe on his name." (John 1:12)
"Therefore
if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are
passed away; behold, all things are become new." (2
Corinthians 5:17)
If
you prayed and ask Jesus Christ into your heart - YOU HAVE NOW
RECEIVED THE GIFT OF SALVATION - YOU HAVE BECOME A CHILD OF GOD.
God Bless You.
 ARE
YOU READY
TO MEET GOD?
by:
Pastor Max Solbrekken, D.D.
CAN
I ASK YOU A QUESTION? ARE YOU READY TO MEET GOD?
The
most important question I could ask you and the most important
decision of your entire lifetime revolves around the spiritual
welfare of your soul and its eternal destiny.
There
are preachers today who have soft-soaped the Gospel and watered
down God's word to please their listeners in order to keep their
parishioners coming to church.
They
are afraid that if they preach the truth, as it is written, people
will not like it and their offering plates will not bring in too
much money.
The
Bible warns that this would be the case in the end time, of which
we are now living. (2 Timothy 3:13) (2 Timothy 4:3-4). The Apostle
Paul calls such preachers Food Preachers or Belly Preachers.
(Romans 16:18) (Philippians 3:19) These men only preach to earn a
living and not to win men and women to Jesus Christ.
I'm
going to be absolutely honest with you and tell you the complete
truth as found in God's Word concerning your soul, death,
judgment, heaven, hell and eternity and the gift of salvation.
Then I will also show you how you can be saved and forgiven by the
precious blood of Jesus Christ.
 #1
- YOUR SOUL WILL NEVER DIE
Your
soul is eternal and will live on even after your body dies.
(Genesis 2:7)
#2
- ONE APPOINTMENT YOU CAN'T CANCEL OR POSTPONE
"It
is appointed unto man once to die but after this the
judgment." (Hebrews 9:27)
#3
- YOU CAN'T FOOL GOD
"Be
not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that
shall he also reap." (Galatians 6:7) "Be sure your sin
will find you out." (Numbers 32:23)
#4
- YOU'LL PAY FOR YOUR SINS IF YOU DON'T REPENT OF THEM
"The
wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through
Jesus Christ our Lord." (Romans 6:23) "The wicked shall
be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God."
(Psalms 9:17)
"When
the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels
with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory: And
before him shall be gathered all the nations: and he shall
separate them one from another, as a shepherd divided his sheep
from the goats:
And
he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the
left. Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come,
ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from
the foundation of the world:
Then
shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye
cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his
angels: And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but
the righteous into life eternal." (Matthew 25:31-34, 41, 46)
#5
- ALL HAVE SINNED
"For
all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." (Romans
3:23) "And we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned
every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the
iniquity of us all." (Isaiah 53:6) "There is none
righteous, no, no one." (Romans 3:10)
#6
- JESUS DIED TO SAVE SINNERS
Jesus
said, "For I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners
to repentance", (Matthew 9:13) and "For the Son of man
is come to save that which was lost." (Matthew 18:11)
"He
was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our
iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with
his stripes we are healed." (Isaiah 53:5)
"For
God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that
whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting
life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the
world, but that the world through him might be saved." (John
3:16-17)
#7
- YOU MUST REPENT OF YOUR SINS
"He
that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and
forsaketh them shall have mercy." (Proverbs 28:13)
"Let
the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts
and let him return unto the Lord, and he will have mercy upon him;
and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon." (Isaiah 55:7)
"Except
ye repent ye shall all likewise perish." (Luke 13:5)
#8
- YOU MUST BELIEVE THE GOSPEL
"That
if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shall
believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead,
thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto
righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto
salvation." (Romans 10:9-10)
#9
- ACCEPT JESUS CHRIST AS YOUR PERSONAL SAVIOUR BY FAITH
"For
by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves:
it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should
boast." (Ephesians 2:8-9) "Come unto me all ye that
labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest."
(Matthew 11:28) "Come now, and let us reason together saith
the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white
as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as
wool." (Isaiah 1:18) "Him that cometh to me I will in no
wise cast out." (John 6:37)
#10
- HE WILL GIVE YOU THE POWER YOU NEED
"He
came unto his own, and his own received him not. But as many as
received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God,
even to them that believe on his name." (John 1:11-12)
"Ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come
upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and
in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the
earth." (Acts 1:8)
HOW
CAN I BE SAVED?
Many
are asking this question today. They are wanting to know how to
"make things right with Almighty God." They realize
somewhere along the way, they have lost sight of God - they have
lost contact with the Eternal One - the Great Creator, God, who
loved the world so much that He sent His Son to die for lost
humanity.
Multitudes
today are groping in darkness - looking for a ray of light to
point them to the Heavenly way - but alas, they search in vain,
they stumble and fall in the shadows of sin, worry, fear, anxiety,
loneliness, heartbreak, sickness and confusion.
Many
people have tried to live a better life, turn over a new leaf,
rehabilitate themselves, only to find that their strength in the
time of testing and temptation has failed and they are back where
they started. So now, not only are they defeated, but they are
also bewildered, perplexed and tormented, not knowing which way to
turn.
Dear
Reader, perhaps you are one of these poor unfortunate souls. THEN
LISTEN CAREFULLY, for I have good news for you. There is still
balm in Gilead for your sin sick soul. There is still deliverance
for the bound, victory for the defeated and peace for the
troubled. There is still healing for the sick and salvation for
the lost.
THERE
IS STILL HOPE - LOOK TO JESUS
THERE
IS STILL HOPE FOR YOU. There is
life for you. There is still forgiveness and happiness for you. LOOK
TO JESUS, the author and finisher of your faith, (Hebrews
12:3).
LOOK
TO JESUS, the mighty conqueror
(Revelation 1:17-18).
LOOK
TO JESUS, the Saviour of the
World (Luke 2:11).
Don't
look at your sinful condition, LOOK TO JESUS; don't look
at your hopelessness, frustration and bewilderment, LOOK TO
JESUS.
Don't
look at your sickness, grief and loneliness, LOOK TO JESUS.
Don't
look at your friends of other Christians who have failed, but LOOK
TO JESUS who never fails.
The
Bible says in Isaiah 45:22, "Look unto me and be ye saved,
all the ends of the earth: for I am God and there is NONE
else."
There
is only one way to be saved and that is through Jesus Christ, the
Son of the Living God.
Jesus
said in (John 14:6), "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life,
no man cometh unto the Father but by me." Jesus said in (John
10:9), "I am the Door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be
SAVED, and shall go in and out and find pasture."
THERE
IS ONLY ONE WAY TO GO - that way is JESUS. There is only one
door to God, and that door is Jesus. There is no other.
Mohammed,
Buddha and the Roman Pope, a church organization - none of these
will open the doors to the Kingdom of Heaven, but Jesus Christ,
the one who came from heaven, who died on the Cross, rose again
from the dead - He is able to forgive you, save you and bring you
into the Kingdom of God. GLORY TO HIS NAME FOREVER.
The
Apostle Peter said in (Acts 4:12) concerning Jesus Christ,
"Neither is there Salvation in any other, for there is none
other name under Heaven, given among men whereby we must be
SAVED." There you have it. the only name that can bring
salvation, blessing and deliverance is the Mighty Name of Jesus.
The Angel said unto Joseph (Matthew 1:21), "Ye shall call His
Name Jesus, for He shall SAVE His people from their sins." In
(Romans 10:13) we read, "For whosoever shall call upon the
name of the Lord shall be SAVED."
The
Philippian jailer asked the same question many today are asking
and he got an answer he was converted, his life was changed. He
met the master, Jesus. You can do the same. There in the prison
house he cried out (Acts 16:30), "Sirs, what must I do to be
saved?" Paul answered, "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ
and be Saved." He believed on Jesus Christ and was Saved. you
can do the same.
But
you ask - how can I believe? What must I do to believe in Jesus
Christ? Where do I start? I am glad you asked these questions,
because I have the answer for you from God's word - Here is what
you must do to be saved.
#1
- REPENT OF YOUR SINS
To
be saved you must repent of your sins and see yourself as you
really are - You must realize you are lost and undone, without
hope. You must see God's Holiness and realize that you have
sinned against the Almighty. You must be sorry for your sins, you
must hate your sins and be willing to forsake them (Matthew 4:17)
your sins have condemned you (John 3:18) your sins have separated
you from God (Isaiah 59:2). The Bible says (Romans 3:23),
"For all have sinned and come short of the Glory of
God." Also in (Isaiah 53:6) the word of God says, "All
we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned everyone to his own
way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all."
GOD
HATES YOUR SINS
- but God loves you. God wants to rescue you out of your sins. You
must be willing to give yourself completely over to God and turn
your back on all unrighteousness.
#2
- YOU MUST CONFESS YOU SINS TO GOD
(1
John 1:9) "If we confess our sins (to God), He is faithful
and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all
unrighteousness." You must tell God you are a sinner and that
you cannot save yourself. You must confess to God that no one else
can save you except Jesus Christ. You must ask God to have mercy
on you (Luke 18:13) and to forgive you. Then you must confess to
God that you believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God, that Jesus
Christ died on the Cross of Calvary for your sins, that He rose
again from the dead and that He is able to save you (1 Corinthians
15:1-4) (Hebrews 7:25).
#3
- YOU MUST ACCEPT JESUS CHRIST AS YOUR SAVIOUR
Tell
God that you accept His pardon and that you now, through faith in
God's word accept Jesus Christ into your heart and life.
(Ephesians 2:8-9) "For by grace are you saved through faith;
and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works,
lest any man should boast." Salvation is absolutely free -
you cannot work for it - you cannot pay for it - It is free - you
just receive it from God.
After
you have prayed to God asking Him to forgive you - then you must
believe He has heard your prayer and forgiven your sins. That is
faith. You say that is hard to do. No - it isn't. If you believe
that God told the truth and the Bible is God's word - God will
do what He said He would do. If you have prayed the sinner's
prayer asking God to forgive you, (then he has forgiven you; His
word tells you that and His word is the truth) and if you are
forgiven, then you are saved. You must then continue to live in
God's way - you must live for God. Believe that you are saved,
begin to praise and worship God and thank him for saving your
soul.
But
you have doubts and say, "I don't feel any different."
You say you still feel the way you did before, you don't feel
like you are saved. Always remember, you are NOT SAVED by your
feelings, you are saved by FAITH IN GOD'S WORD. If God said it -
it is the truth, whether you feel like it or not. However, when
you stand of God's word and by faith accept the Salvation that
God offers, you WILL FEEL DIFFERENT.
You
will believe before you feel - you will feel the cleansing, you
will feel the forgiveness of God, you will feel the assurance when
you believe God's word and have confessed Jesus Christ as your
Saviour. (Romans 10:9-10).
You
will begin to feel peace, the peace that comes from knowing you
are saved, that your sins have been forgiven and you will feel
hope and optimism.
The
Word of God states (John 6:37), Jesus said, "Him that cometh
unto Me, I will in no wise cast out." You have come to Jesus
by faith; He has not cast you out - Jesus has taken you in - you
are SAVED. Praise God.
Raise
your hands to God (in complete obedience and surrender). Say
"thank you, Jesus, for saving my soul." Praise Him and
Worship Him for what He has done for you.
You
are now saved, you have passed from death unto life (John 5:24).
Your name has now been written in the "Lamb's Book of
Life." (Revelation 20:15) The Angels are rejoicing in Heaven
over this great victory over the devil. God has snatched your soul
from Satan's grasp and the angels are rejoicing over this. (Luke
15:7)
RISE
from you knees full of peace (John 14:27). Now go and tell someone
about Jesus Christ and his love. Tell people what God has done for
you. (Romans 10:9-10) "That if thou shalt confess with thy
mouth, the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God
hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be SAVED. For with the
heart man believeth unto righteousness, and with the mouth
confession is made unto Salvation."
Seek
the Lord (James 4:8) and ask Him to fill you with the holy Ghost
and Fire.
Ask
God to give you power for service (Luke 3:16) (Acts 1:4) (Acts
1:8) (Acts 2:4) (Acts 2:38-39). Read your Bible every day and pray
to the Lord Jesus Christ.
As
you go about your life, witness to people about Jesus Christ. Find
a good church where the pastor and the congregation believe the
whole Bible, where they believe in holiness of life and separation
from the world.
Find
a church where they believe in prayer for the sick and where the
pastor and congregation have a burden to see the lost saved and
brought to Jesus Christ.
May
the Lord bless you and give you peace. Write me a letter if you
have accepted the lord Jesus Christ as a result of reading this
message.
 WHAT MUST
I DO TO
BE SAVED?
Jesus
said, "Come unto Me all ye that labour and are heavy laden,
and I will give you rest." (Matthew 11:28)
Yes,
my dear friend, God is still in the business of setting men and
women free from their sins, sorrows, heartbreaks, fears and
troubles. In this age of frustrations, nervous tensions and
mental collapses, Jesus Christ is still granting peace to the
troubled, joy to the discouraged, strength to the weary and
healing to the sick!
1
- You must admit that you are a sinner
The
Bible says, "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of
God." (Rom. 3:23) "All we like sheep have gone astray; we have
turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on Him the
iniquity of us all." (Isaiah 53:6)
2
- You must believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God
You
MUST believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, that Jesus died
on the cross, was buried and rose again from the dead.
"That
whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have eternal
life. He that believeth on Him is not condemned: buot he that
believeth not is condemned already." (John 3:15,18) "Verily,
verily, I say unto you, He that heareth My word, and believeth on
Him that sent Me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into
condemnation; but is passed from death unto life." (John 5:24)
 3
- You must repent of your sins
The
Bible says, "...except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish."
(Luke 13:3) "Let the wicked forsake his way and the unrighteous
man his thoughts: and let him return unto the Lord, and He will
have mercy upon him; and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon."
(Isaiah 55:7)
4
- You must receive Jesus Christ as your Saviour
The
Bible says: "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only
begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish,
but have everlasting life." (John 3:16)
"Behold,
I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear My voice, and open
the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he
with Me." (Rev. 3:20) "He that hath the Son hath life: and he
that hath not the Son of God hath not life." (1 John 5:12)
5
- You must confess Jesus Christ as your Lord
The
Bible says: "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord
Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him
from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man
believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is
made unto salvation." (Romans 10:9-10)
"Whosoever
shall confess Me before men, him shall the Son of man confess
before the angels of God: But he that denieth Me before men shall
be denied before the angels of God." (Luke 12:8, 9)
HOW
DO I INVITE
JESUS CHRIST INTO MY LIFE?
Pray
to God, a prayer - from your heart.
Tell Him that you
are a sinner and that you need forgiveness. Tell him that
you believe Jesus Christ died for your sins. Tell him that
you are willing to change, to turn away from sin. Ask Jesus
Christ to come into your heart and life and be your personal
Saviour.
"But
as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons
of God, even to them that believe on his name." (John 1:12)
"Therefore
if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are
passed away; behold, all things are become new." (2
Corinthians 5:17)
If
you prayed and ask Jesus Christ into your heart - YOU HAVE NOW
RECEIVED THE GIFT OF SALVATION - YOU HAVE BECOME A CHILD OF GOD.
God Bless You.
