The Four Aspects of the Cross. Part 1.

The Four Aspects of the Cross.
Eph. 6:1–12)
God’s Remedy for Guilt– Part 1 –

I. Two Basic Problems in the Christian Church
A. We have displaced the cross from the center
B. We have displaced Jesus from His position as head
II. Begin with Spiritual Warfare—End with Intercession (Eph. 6:1–12)III. Why Is There a War?
A. Lucifer set up a rival kingdom in the heavenlies
1. Lucifer reached up—and fell
2. Jesus stooped down—and was exalted (Phil. 2:9; Luke 14:11; 1 Pet. 5:6)
B. Adamic race created
C. Satan tempts Adam, Adam falls
D. Satan has access to the presence of God—to accuse and make us guilty
E. Jesus poured out His blood as a guilt offering for our rebellion (2 Cor. 5:21 [Is.
53:10]
1. Our righteousness is as filthy rags (Is. 64:6)
2. We are clothed with salvation and God’s righteousness (Is. 61:10)
F. Guilt vs. conviction of sin
1. Conviction is from the Holy Spirit—brings repentance
2. Guilt is from Satan, the accuser of the brethren—only remedy is the robe of
righteousness
3. Romans 8:1—No condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus

Healed by the Power of God!

This is my testimony. I am James King who is an inmate in a California State Prison. I was diagnosed in 2015 with Neuro Endocrine Carcinoma which is an aggressive form of pancreas cancer. I went into surgery to have the cancer removed. I was clear of cancer for 15 months when it returned and metastasized in his liver. James states that he went through three different Chemo drugs when another inmate who is a Christian asked him, when are you going to let God heal you?
After this I went to Dr. Emerick and his wife Claudia who are volunteer Chaplin’s in the prison where I am incarcerated. Dr. Emerick gave me a couple of books on healing by Kenneth E. Hagin called “Healing Belongs to Us”, and “Right and Wrong Thinking”. He told me to read these books and we would pray in a couple of weeks. Two weeks later after Dr. Emerick preached the Sunday sermon in the prison he and his wife Claudia prayed over me and I received my healing according to the scriptures of 1 Peter 2:24 which says “by the stripes of our Lord Jesus Christ we were healed.
I returned to the doctor and I was told by the doctor that all of my cancerous tumors were gone. The doctor was amazed because he told me previously that I would die in a few more months. No more tumors in my body. I am cancer free. I stand on the Word of God and rejoice in my healing!

Rev. Juan Ramirez- Victory Outreach in Mexicali, Mexico

This is a picture of Rev. Juan Ramirez who is now a preacher for Victory Outreach in Mexicali, Mexico. He now leads men and women to the Lord Jesus Christ. The Word of God never returns void. He was once a gang member and drug addict but now ministers for the Lord. Always share the love of Christ and see what the Lord God can do in a persons life.

The Story of Juan Ramirez

I want to tell you a story about a young man that I met 29 years ago. His name is Juan Ramirez. I met Juan in Mexicali, Mexico in 1973. Juan was the boyfriend of a young girl who was a member of the church I pastored. She stated he had a very hard life. He was abandoned by his father when he was 8 years old. He stated that he missed his father and blamed God for his father leaving.
I went to visit him in Mexico at the urging of his girlfriend because she stated that he was a drug addict and heavily involved in gangs. She stated at the age of 13 he joined the gang and began to smoke cigarettes, marijuana, snort cocaine and also do Crystal meth.
When I met Juan, he was a very hard young man that didn’t want to hear anything about God. I told him that God loves him very much and this is not the life that he should have. He wasn’t disrespectful but he did not want to hear what I had to say. I told him that I would continue to pray for him and God was not going to let him go. Sometime later trying to pass drugs and entering in the United States illegally Juan was arrested and sent to jail for approximately a year and a half in Calexico, Mexico. When I learned about his detention I sent him a letter and in the letter I once again told him how the Lord God loved him. He stated one thing that really stuck out in the letter was the scripture I quoted from the Gospel of Luke 11:13 which said if we’re being evil knowing how to give good gifts to our children how much more has a heavenly Father wants to give us good gifts.
When he was released from prison he was back-and-forth still involved in drugs and the gang. At some point in time the Holy Spirit using the Word of God and my persistence brought Juan to a point where he accepted the Lord Jesus Christ. He is now a minister with Victory Outreach and Mexicali, Mexico.
Juan stated about three weeks ago he began thinking about me and he still had the letter. He decided to Google my name and we made contact With one another. He stated that my encouragement and giving him the love of Christ and as well as the letter that I wrote 29 years ago is what helped him come to the saving knowledge of Jesus. I want to let you know that the Word of God never returns void. It does not matter if you don’t see instant success when preaching the word. This is a lesson in loving someone into the kingdom of God and seeing the Holy Spirit use His word to change their lives.
The picture to your left is Juan who is standing in the first row. He is the young man in the middle throwing gang signs. The second picture is now Juan who leads others to Jesus as a minister in Victory Outreach in Mexicali, Mexico.

Are you dating or married?

Are you dating or married?
John 17:21
“I pray that they will all be one, just as you and I are one—as you are in me, Father, and I am in you. And may they be in us so that the world will believe you sent me.”
When two people get married the possessions and wealth of one becomes the possessions and wealth of the other. If you didn’t have a car and the person you married did than you now have a car. If you need to sign important papers for the other person you are dating, you can’t but if you are married you can. If you are dating, you can go where you want and do what you want but once you get married you must come to an agreement on these things.
Christ prayed that we might be one with Him as He is one with the Father. What does it mean to be one with Christ? We no longer do what we want but we do what He wants. We want all that God has to give to us but we must be married to Him. He must be our primary love. I told my wife many years ago I could not love her as I should unless I love God more. Loving God means that I want to be the very best husband, father, grandfather, brother and friend I can be. But this power comes through union with Him.
Do want to please Him? You must desire Him and the things He desires. He must have our heart, our soul, and body.
Are you dating Christ or married to Him?

The Power of Your Words

The Power of Your Words

Introduction.
Words are locators of one’s either faith or doubt. Words will determine the course of your life.
Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit. Prov. 18:21
You are snared by the words of your mouth; You are taken by the words of your mouth.
Prov. 6:2

For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. Matt. 12:34
My son give attention to my words; Incline your ear to my sayings. Do not let them depart from your eyes; Keep them in the midst of your heart; For they are life to those who find them, And health to all their flesh. Keep your heart with all diligence,
For out of it spring the issues of life. Proverbs 4: 20-23
Power of Words for Salvation.
if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved; for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation. Rom. 10:9-10
For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.”
Matt. 12: 37
