The Message of the Cross

The only solution for sin, the only answer to sin, is the Cross of Christ!

The Cross of Christ is the foundation principle of all Bibical Doctrine. It is the foundation because it is the first principle of Redemption, brought about in the Mind of God even before the foundation of the world (1 Pet. 1:18-20). This means that every single doctrine must be built on the foundation of Christ and the Cross, or else, in some way, it will be spurious. And that's the problem with the modern Church; in many cases it is building doctrines on other foundation.

Requirement for Salvation: Romans 10:9-10 9)"That if you shall confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead you shall be saved. 10)For with the heart man believes unto Righteousiness and with the mouth confession is made unto Salvation".

Say outloud this prayer: Lord Jesus I am a sinner, please forgive me and cleanse me from all my sin. I am sorry please come into my heart as Lord and Savior and save me. In Jesus Name I pray. Thank you Jesus right now I am saved.

Let us know if you prayed that prayer and accepted Christ.

Ride Out Your Storm

     Sometime in the past a dream was related to me who involved people and boats. As I thought about a boat, it came to me that one of the standard pieces of equipment found on a boat, large or small, is an ANCHOR. Its purpose is to hold the vessel fast and to secure it to one spot, keeping it from drifting while not under power.
     In life we often encounter what could be referred to as storms. My wife (Peggy) sings a song “Hold onto Jesus and ride out your storm.” How well do you ride out your storm? Do you just survive – blown around by every contrary wind and wave? Or do you cast your anchor – and does it hold you fast?


In what have you placed your hope as your anchor?


     Like the song if you are depending on anyone other than Jesus Christ, the Solid Rock, you will surely loose anchor and know disappointment.
