I BELIEVE THAT JESUS IS LORD
Greetings my name is Pastor Herbert Theodore of the Promised Land Missionary Baptist Church of New Orleans, Louisiana. I greet you in and with the devine love of our LORD and Savior JESUS CHRIST. My mission is to extend salvation to all mankind. The scriptures teach and thus I believe that there is one and only one true GOD. HE is worthy of all possible, honor, confidence, and love. GOD is eternally existing in the unity of the three persons of the GODHEAD, namely the FATHER, the SON, and the HOLY SPIRIT, who are of the same substance, eternal and coequal in every divine perfection and executing distinct but harmonious offices in the great work of redemption. Man is saved by grace, GOD'S unmerited favor, through faith in JESUS CHRIST and HIS blood. Therefore salvation is a gift from GOD and cannot be earned by human efforts. A person must be "BORN AGAIN" by the SPIRIT of GOD. In this new birth JESUS comes to live inside the new beliver. Having experienced HIS saving power in my own life my desire is to spread HIS good news.
TIME TO MAKE A DECISION
The Bible is my favorite book it is our Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth. By it we are taught that man is eternal and will live forever either in Heaven or Hell. The state we die in is the state we will be judged in, if we die in sin we will be judged as a sinner, but if we die having accepted JESUS as our Savior we will be judged as a saint. The Bible uses many illustrations to teach what happens when we choose to let JESUS be LORD of our lives. It begins with the confession of faith, we confess with our mouth the LORD JESUS, and believe in our heart that GOD hath raised HIM from the dead, and we are saved. This process is then acted out in Baptism based on our faith in CHRIST(Colossians 2:12). Our old evil nature dies (crucified); which enables us to receive a new life (buried); that new life joins us to the nature of CHRIST'S life (resurrected). Spreading the good news about JESUS CHRIST and making known the simplicity of salvation is my only mission. I trust that if you have not accepted JESUS as your Savior, that you will make the corrrect decision allowing JESUS to be your LORD and Savior. In doing so you will be "BORN AGAIN". So I rejoice with you now that you are saved. Whenever I speak of being "SAVED" or "BORN AGAIN" I'm essentially speaking about the same thing. A person is saved when he or she "TURNS" from sin to GOD (repentance),receives JESUS into his or her heart by faith, and is changed in his or her heart by the SPIRIT of GOD (new birth). There are two questions that may arise from this challenge,(1) What are we saved from? In this life we are saved from the bondage of sin and the destruction, guilt and absence of purpose it brings to our lives, and in the life to come we are saved from the wrath of GOD and the eternal fires of HELL. (2) What are we saved to? we are born into an abundant life in the family of GOD as a child of GOD. You now have access to all the benefits that flow from your FATHER GOD to HIS childern, righteousness, peace, joy, healing and provisions for every need. But most of all we are saved to eternal life with GOD forever in Heaven after our lives here on earth ends. This is a simple overview not of me but of GOD, I am a lowly servant and though I may have many accomplishments, they are not worthy to be mentioned. There is therefore nothing greater in life that I can offer anyone than the free gift of salvation in which I am called to preach. Will you accept this freee gift? Trusting that you have made the correct decision, you now have a desire to grow closer to CHRIST. The next thing you must do is attach yourself to a church of your choice. If you have a problem doing so please feel free to contact me that I may assist you. There is never a charge for my guided services. May GOD BLESS You Pastor H. Theodore Promised Land M. B. C.
