WELCOME TO VALLEY FARMS COMMUNITY CHURCH
THE UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION Article [I] (Amendment 1 - Freedom of expression and religion)
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.*
IS THERE A BIBLICAL PRESCRIPTION TO MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN? YES! ONE, AND ONLY ONE. IT'S FOUND IN 2nd CHRONICLES 7:14; "IF MY PEOPLE WHO ARE CALLED BY MY NAME WILL HUMBLE THEMSELVES, AND PRAY AND SEEK MY FACE, AND TURN FROM THEIR WICKED WAYS, THEN I WILL HEAR FROM HEAVEN, AND WILL FORGIVE THEIR SINS AND HEAL THEIR LAND."
THE ANSWER IS: TURN BACK TO THE LORD GOD-TO FAITH-FAMILY!
TO BE CHRISTIANS, WE MUST CONFESS AND AGREE WITH GOD THAT SIN IS SIN! KNOWING THAT GOD HATES SIN! THE SINNER MUST CONFESS, REPENT AND TURN FROM THEIR SINS, TURN TO JESUS AS LORD AND BE SAVED!
WE ARE!
CHRIST CENTERED
FAMILY FOCUSED
LIFE CHANGING
Remember: As Christians, we have a New Nature that is Constrained by the Truth of Scripture!
Knowing that; Truth is always Truth, from Eternity past, through Eternity Future.
SO REMEMBER! If it's True, it's NOT NEW- If it's New it's NOT TRUE!
***********************************
A POWERFUL TRUTH:The Word of God is alive and Powerful! When truly heard, this Word is Powerful enough to awaken the spiritually dead. His Word, when accepted as Truth; is Powerful enough to save men from their sin, therefore...Trust in Him; John 6:14. “How can they hear without a preacher?” – Romans 10: 13-15.
Should you have any questions, feel free to talk with me.

The Saga of a Local Church
********************
SALVATION: Not only to Eternity in Heaven, but from Eternity in Hell! You MUST, first of all: Humble yourself and Admit You Are a Sinner in Need of a Savior:
•James 2:10 “For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles on one (point), he has become guilty of all.”
•Romans 3:23 “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.”
•Romans 6:23 “For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
Accept God’s Love through the/Sacrifice in His Son Jesus •Romans 5:8 “But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.”
Turn to God in Repentance •Acts 20:21 “I have declared to both Jews and Greeks that they must turn to God in repentance and have faith in our Lord Jesus.”
Trust the Fullness Jesus Christ! •Romans 10:9 “…if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved;”
•Romans 10:13 “For whoever calls on the Name of the Lord shall be saved.”
•Romans 10:14 “How then shall they call on Him Who they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of Whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?
•Romans 10:17 “So then Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God.”
•Jeremiah 29:13 “You will seek Me (God) and find Me when you seek Me with all your heart.”
It may not be easy to give up your old sinful ways, and turn in faith to Jesus Christ; but it is the only way to SALVATION, AND IT IS WORTH IT!
CALL UPON (THE FULLNESS OF) THE NAME OF JESUS AND YOU WILL BE SAVED!****************************************************

Dr. William Perry is a prolific writer of outstanding books. His titles for Newburgh Press thus far are Christians Helping Christians, Christian Counseling for the 21st Century and Theology for the 21st Century. Each book is a must for every reader of solid Christian material.
I am happy to endorse Dr. Perry’s latest treasure, “A Journey Through The Gospels.” Every student and preacher/teacher of the Bible needs this book for the desk or the bedside table. You will enjoy reading insights and valuable lessons that many casual readers of the Bible will miss.

Hello PB
ReplyDeleteSo true PB that the god of this world has truly blinded the minds of so
many that they cannot absorb the wisdom spoken by The Lord Himself.
We are so blessed that we have our very own copy of the Scriptures ...
Lord help us to read and understand them.
Sure like the way you stated what distinguishes a True Believer is their
responsiveness to divine Truth.
It sounds like this is going to be a really good series, good message Pastor- Christmas is just around the bend. Lord Bless you. We are starting to take your prayer list and giving one or two people a person to pray for that week. That way they become personal.
ReplyDeleteShe is really getting cold up here, but another good message at the meeting house. We had 4 join up to see it. All good reports.
ReplyDeleteGood message Pastor!!
ReplyDeletePraying you all stay safe, and free from dis bug. We love the teaching.
ReplyDeleteA snow storm for sure- good message Pastor- all of us watched, and we tool notes. We are hoping we find out why Jesus spoke in PARABLES, that nobody really understood, and had to go back and explain the story.
ReplyDeleteIf Jesus always spoke to people in parables, how can anyone know anything? Unless He backs up and reminds us of what He is really saying. I guess we do need a teacher.
ReplyDeleteI don't see where you are headed in this one. I hope it gets clearer as you go on.
