HIS
SERVANTS' MINISTRY

Welcome to our website
Christian
Workers
Who
are Christians? It is everyone who takes on the Name of Christ (Christian).
We ALL are required to serve the Lord! We are NOT required to
do any works to be saved, but AFTER we are saved, what we do
with our lives, is how we will be judged by Jesus. Also see
our article "Judgment Seat of Christ." If we just
sit back and do nothing for our Lord, we are disobeying Him
(Mat.28:19). Some of our responsibilities in the family of God,
are worshipping God and witnessing.
Just the word "witnessing"
scares most people. But, IF we want to obey our Saviour and
Lord, we will witness to those around us or one day when we
stand before Jesus, we will stutter and grasp for words and
try to explain why we didn’t!
Some
excuses people use not to accept Christ.
Excuses
will NOT hold up at the Judgment.
1.
NOT TODAY. Choose for yourselves today. Jos. 24:15. How long will
you hesitate? 1Ki 18:21 Do not boast about tomorrow.
Pro. 27:1. Seek the Lord while He may be found. Isa.
55:6. The Son of Man will come at
an hour that you do not think He will. Mat. 24:44. This very night
your soul is required of you. Lu. 12:19-20. Now
why do you delay? Ac. 22:16. Now is "the acceptable
time." 2Co 6:2.
Eze.33:19 But if the wicked turn from his wickedness, and do that which
is lawful and right, he shall live thereby. [KJV] Matthew
20:6 And about the eleventh hour he went out, and found
others standing idle, and saith unto them, Why
stand ye here all the day idle? [KJV] John
6:37 All that the Father
giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will
in no wise cast out. [KJV] Romans
10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord
shall be saved. [KJV]
2.
IT IS TOO LATE FOR ME. Ezekiel
33:19 But if the wicked turn from his wickedness,
and do that which is lawful and right, he shall live thereby.
[KJV] Matthew 20:6 And about the eleventh
hour he went out, and found others standing idle, and saith
unto them, Why stand ye here
all the day idle? [KJV] John 6:37 All that the Father giveth
me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no
wise cast out. [KJV] Romans 10:13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the
Lord shall be saved. [KJV]
3.
I TRIED ONCE AND FAILED. Daniel 3:17 If it be so, our God whom we serve is
able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will
deliver us out of thine hand, O king. [KJV] Romans 4:21 And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised,
he was able also to perform. [KJV] 2 Tim. 1:12 For
the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am
not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded
that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him
against that day. [KJV] Hebrews 7:25
Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that
come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession
for them. [KJV] Jude 1:24 Now unto him that is
able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless
before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, [KJV]
4.
TOO MANY THINGS I DON'T UNDERSTAND. Deut. 29:29 The secret things belong unto the Lord
our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us
and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of
this law. [KJV] John 13:7 Jesus answered and said
unto him, What
I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter.
[KJV]
Acts 1:7 And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which
the Father hath put in his own power.
[KJV] 1 Cor. 13:12 For now we see through a glass,
darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then
shall I know even as also I am known. [KJV]
5.
I DON'T NEED A SAVIOUR. John 3:18 He that believeth on him is not
condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because
he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of
God. [KJV] John
3:36 He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life:
and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the
wrath of God abideth on him. [KJV] Romans 3:23 For
all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; [KJV] Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the
gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
[KJV] John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way,
the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but
by me. [KJV] John 8:24 I
said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for
if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins. [KJV]
6.
GOD IS LOVE. THERE IS NO DANGER. Matthew
22:13 Then said the king to
the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and
cast him into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing
of teeth. [KJV] Luke 13:3 I
tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise
perish. [KJV] 2
Peter 2:4 For if God spared not the angels that sinned,
but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of
darkness, to be reserved unto judgment; [KJV]
7.
TOO MANY HYPOCRITES IN THE CHURCH. Matthew
7:1 Judge not, that ye be not
judged. [KJV] 1
Peter 4:8 And above all things have fervent charity among
yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins. [KJV]
8.
IT WILL COST ME TOO MUCH. Psalm 116:12 What shall I render unto the Lord
for all his benefits toward me? [KJV] Mark 8:36 For
what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world,
and lose his own soul? [KJV] Luke 18:29-30 And he said unto them, Verily
I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or parents,
or brethren, or wife, or children, for the kingdom of God's
sake, [30] Who shall not receive manifold more in this present
time, and in the world to come life everlasting. [KJV] 1 Peter 2:24 Who his own self bare our sins
in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should
live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed. [KJV]
9.
I CAN'T LEAVE MY OLD FRIENDS. Exodus
23:2 Thou shalt not follow a multitude to do evil; neither
shalt thou speak in a cause to decline after many to wrest judgment:
[KJV] Proverbs 13:20 He that walketh with wise men
shall be wise: but a companion of fools shall be destroyed.
[KJV] 2 Cor. 6:14 Be ye not unequally yoked together
with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with
unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? [KJV] 1 Cor. 15:33 Be not deceived: evil communications
corrupt good manners. [KJV]
10. I'LL BE PERSECUTED. Matthew 5:11-12 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile
you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against
you falsely, for my sake. [12] Rejoice, and be exceeding glad:
for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the
prophets which were before you. [KJV] 2 Tim.
3:12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus
shall suffer persecution. [KJV] Rev. 2:10 Fear
none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil
shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and
ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death,
and I will give thee a crown of life. [KJV]
There
are some willing to listen, but they will be few!
On the whole, most will reject Jesus and His Words. Since we
do NOT know the lost sheep, we must witness to all. Sometimes
the one we don’t think will listen, will! We are NOT required
to force people to make a decision. We simply are required to
tell about Jesus. We do not have to be a Bible scholar and know
Scripture verses by heart, although that’s great. Just tell
what Jesus means to you and what He has done for you. Sometimes
a simple, humble statement is best.
Don’t
be afraid. He is there to help you.
Trust
Him and He will see you through.
True
Gospel Disappearing
For those of us who truly love and serve God, it is a great
sorrow for us to look around and see millions of people living
in a selfish and ungrateful way. They live each day as if God
does not even exist. They never think of this awesome One to
whom they literally owe their existence, and who holds their
eternal destiny in His Holy Hands. And what is worse, is those
who profess to be “Christians.” My friend, there
are a multitude out there who say “I’m a Christian”
and claim to know God, claim to love Him. But, do they?
Here’s
a check list for you:
- 1.
How often do you tell God you love Him?
- 2. How often do you tell God you appreciate Him?
- 3. How often do you go to Him in prayer . . . not only when
you want something, but just to talk to Him. To ask Him
to help you make right decisions? To make you the kind of
person He wants you to be?
- 4. How often do you thank Him for past blessings, and answered
prayer.
- 5. How often do you thank Him for His awesome love and amazing
grace?
- 6. How often do you thank Him for His forgiving you?
- 7. How often do you thank Him for His patience?
- 8. How often do you thank Him for giving you His one and
only begotten Son as a means of redemption and eternal Life?
Think
about this my friend.
- When
was the last time you really poured out your heart to Him
as a Friend and Confidant?
- Is
God really pleased with you?
- Are you a TRUE Christian?
- Are
you a TRUE disciple of Christ?
Remember, all disciples are believers, but
not all believers are disciples. You must have
a close personal relationship with Christ, you must love Him
with your all, and you must trust, obey and follow Him where
ever He leads.
Unbelievers are showing more and more contemptible disregard
for their Creator. God clearly states what will happen, but
people just don’t seem to be able to understand that God
does NOT lie.
Psalm
9:17 The wicked shall be turned into hell, and
all the nations that forget God. [KJV] Those
who forget God are many! Millions! Can’t people SEE that
there is a Hell, and that God’s judgment will fall on
ALL those who forsake and forget Him?
Romans 1:28-32 And even as they did not
like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to
a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
[29] Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness,
covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit,
malignity; whisperers, [30] Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful,
proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
[31] Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural
affection, implacable, unmerciful: [32] Who knowing the judgment
of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death,
not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them. [KJV]
When
people refuse to acknowledge God, He abandons them to their
evil minds and allows them do things that should never be done.
Their hearts and lives became so full of every kind of wickedness:
sin, greed, hate, envy, murder, fighting, deception, malicious
behavior, and gossip. They will lie, slander, gossip, blaspheme,
they hate God, are insulting and brazen, proud, arrogant and
boastful. They invent new ways to sin, and are disobedient to
their parents. They refuse to even try to understand, break
their promises, and are heartless and unforgiving. They are
fully aware of God’s death penalty for those who do these
things, yet they go right ahead and do them anyway. And, worse
yet, they encourage others to do them, too.
Can you see prophecy being fulfilled in this world today? It
is undeniable that there is a connection between the above verses,
and the following verses, and the wicked and godless TV shows
and movies.
2 Tim. 3:1-5 This know also, that in the
last days perilous times shall come. [2] For men shall be lovers
of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers,
disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, [3] Without natural
affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce,
despisers of those that are good, [4] Traitors, heady, highminded,
lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; [5] Having a form
of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn
away. [KJV]
People
today love only themselves and their money. They are boastful
and proud, scoffing and blaspheming God. The majority of kids
today do not know what it is to obey their parents, let alone
God! People are not thankful for anything they have. They consider
nothing sacred. They are unloving, unforgiving; they lie and
slander others and have no self-control. They are cruel and
have no interest in God or what is right and good. They betray
their friends, are reckless, puffed up with pride, and love
pleasure rather than God. Some people act as if they are religious,
but they will reject the power that could make them godly.
Now,
is this not the truth? God predicted this would happen long,
long ago! You are seeing it being fulfilled before your very
eyes this day.
Why does Hollywood glamorize wickedness and ungodliness? Because
that is what people want! They promote youth rebellion, sexual
freedom, lewd perversion, gross scenes of murder, Satanic song
lyrics, blasphemy, cursing, etc. What state of evil do you think
the world was in at the time before the Flood, before the destruction
of Sodom and Gomorrah? Could it have been any worse than now?
What did God do in those two situations? He brought judgment
on the people! ALL the evil doers died.
What would have shamed and embarrassed “Christians”
20 years ago, is now widely accepted by them. I recently heard
that 50% of “professing” Christians look up internet
pornography. Is this a “Christian”? NO way my friend!
God
does NOT have children who “PRACTICE”
sin.
1
John 3:9 Whosoever is born of God doth not commit
sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because
he is born of God. [KJV]
A
person CANNOT practice sin, day after day, and be a child of
God. The Holy Spirit will not permit it. But, someone who simply
“professes” to be a Christian (a hypocrite), is
NOT a TRUE Christian! A person MUST “possess” Christ
in their heart and soul or they are NOT a Christian, no matter
how often they say “I’m a Christian.” God
knows His true children.
Upon
all those who make a false profession, His wrath and judgment
shall fall. God will not give the Gift of His Holy Spirit to
someone who is not sincere about Jesus. But to those who are
sincere, He graciously gives His Spirit to help them live a
life with which He is pleased (Rom.8:9). Will we never sin again?
How I wish that were true, but we will sin. But, we will NOT practice sin in our lives.
Many churches preach only what the people want to hear. People
today cannot tolerate the true Word of God, the Gospel of Christ,
and certainly any pastor who preaches on Hell will not be tolerated.
This too was prophesied in the Bible!
2
Tim. 4:3 For the time will come when they will
not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they
heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; [KJV]
The
time has come, is already here, when people will no longer listen
to right teaching. They will follow their own desires and will
look for teachers who will tell them only things they want to
hear (Isa.30:10). The bold preachers and teachers are rapidly
retreating or dying off.
Now preachers are bringing the gospel of self-love, self-esteem,
and positive thinking. Preachers do not want to offend anyone
with the Truth, because people will NOT endure “sound
doctrine” just as was prophesied!
- There
is no teaching the fear of a Holy God’s wrath against
sin!
- No
teaching of an actual, literal Hell.
- No teaching about repentance!
- No
teaching of a grateful faith in Christ!
- No
teaching of the virgin birth of Christ, the Messiah!
- No
teaching of the Blood of Christ!
Blood
offends people! Christ’s
precious Blood is NOT preached! What is the Gospel without His
virgin birth and His Blood shed on the cross? If you are privileged
to hear sermons on these subjects, praise God. It is a rare
exception in today’s times!
Churches are stooping to pleasing the devil by trying to lure
youth into church by contemporary worship and contemporary music.
I understand rock concerts are common in some “churches.” The
paganism of today’s society is creeping into even some
so-called “evangelical” churches.
The holy character of God has
not changed, nor will it ever change! Sin separates
mankind from God, and the judgment to come, will come. Count
on it. God’s remedy for sin and salvation to eternal life
has not changed either. It is still Christ! God has not changed
or updated His Plan of salvation, nor is He about to do so. God does NOT make mistakes, does
NOT lie! God is truly willing and eager to accept
sinners when they SINCERELY repent. But His holiness and justice will pardon only those
who believe Him and accept His one and only Plan; those who
accept Christ’s work on the cross on their behalf. Jesus
poured out His Holy and Precious Blood on the cross for the
sins of the world. We must believe
and accept this fact, this Truth!
The Gospel must be preached throughout the world, and
ALL believers, NOT just preachers and teachers, are the ones
responsible for preaching it!
Mark
16:15 And he said unto them, Go
ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. [KJV] The Gospel of Christ,
and only the Gospel of Christ has the power to save a person
from the pits of Hell.
Romans
1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ:
for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that
believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. [KJV]
Acts
4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for
there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby
we must be saved. [KJV]
John
3:36 He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting
life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life;
but the wrath of God abideth on him. [KJV]
1
John 5:10-12 He that believeth on the Son of God
hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath
made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God
gave of his Son. [11] And this is the record, that God hath
given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. [12]
He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son
of God hath not life. [KJV]
Saved means redeemed
from the judgment we truly deserve for our sins, and one day
resurrected and made fit for Heaven with new glorified bodies
like Christ. An unbeliever too will be resurrected (Dan.12:1-2).
But they all will be cast into the Lake of Fire (Hell, Rev.20:15).
John
3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born
again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. [KJV]
How
to be Born Again!
John
1:12-13 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: [13] Which were born, not of blood, nor of the
will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
[KJV]
John
3:15-18 That whosoever
believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. [16]
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. [17] For God sent not his Son into the world
to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be
saved. [18] He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he
that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not
believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. [KJV]
Thank
You Jesus!
