    MINISTRY REPORT

    Last Sunday (which is two days ago), we were invited by a pastor to come to their family home to share the gospel with them. So  I and my fellow coworkers here in Kumasi such as Brother Paul, Brother Emmanuel, Brother  Sarpong, Brother Stephen, Brother Atta, and Brother Evans went for the presentation and the preaching of the gospel in a battlefield on a spiritual ground where we FOUGHT the UNTRUTH (LIES) with the TRUTH which is in Jesus Christ.After we presented to them the gospel, the pastor and his family has agreed for us to come there again in their house which we will. The TRUTH in Jesus Christ always conquers the LIES of Satan in victory.But let us  PRAY for them, especially their daughter Sister Wendy who has wholeheartedly embraced the true gospel of God`s RIGHTEOUSNESS. Even though her father is a pastor and a Bible School Teacher, she stopped going to her fathers church, and she has been joining us in our Sunday fellowship after believing in the truth gospel of the water and the Spirit. So let us pray that God will shield her from any intimidation from any member of the family as a result of her NEW FAITH and the NEW WINE (the TRUE gospel) which she has drunked with satisfaction. After Sister Wendy believed in the true gospel, her greatest desire has been for her parents who are in the pastoral ministry and in the Bible School to come to KNOWLEDGE of the TRUTH and BELIEVE in it.But we all know how uneasy and difficult it is for theologians and those in the pastoral ministry who have been deceived in the FALSE gospel  for so long to GIVE UP on their false Christian doctrines. Such theologians all over the world need our PRAYERS, for Satan has bind and caged them in a great apostasy (deviation from the TRUE gospel of Jesus Christ). But the good and merciful LORD still"...desires all men to be SAVED and to come to the knowledge of the TRUTH" (1 Timothy 2:4).So we are  praying for them whiles we do our part to spread the TRUE gospel, so "...that they may come to their SENSES and escape the SNARE of the devil, having been taken captive by him to do his will” (2 Timothy 2:26). I believe that God will save many souls with the gospel of the water and the Spirit before the Lord’s return in these END times.God bless you!ERIC ABOADWE, GHANA

    If You Have Confusion and Emptiness in Your Heart, Seek the Light of the Truth (I)

    Here is a brief summary of the French e-67 book you sent me last time. ah! this last book is also excellent like the others and here,  Reverend JONG depicts with meticulousness the origin of religious faith in Christianity. Indeed,  Reverend Paul C. JONG in this book explains to us the origin of the perversion or distortion of the  wonderful Gospel of the water and the Spirit preached by the apostles. A few centuries later, Constantine, a  Roman Emperor who presided over the first Council of Nicaea where the famous creed of the apostles was written, they forgot or completely ignored the baptism of Jesus by John the Baptist. It is through his baptism Our Lord Jésus Christ took our sins for all.It is therefore the misunderstanding of the baptism of Jesus that explains doctrines such as the repeated prayers of repentance for the atonement of sins. Finally, the sins are not atoned from their hearts and they still remain sinners even though they claim to believe in Christ. However, the apostles precisely preached the gospel of water and the Spirit, we see for example Peter in Acts 1: 21-22 and Acts 10:37-38 emphasizing the beginning of the public ministry of Jesus when he came to be baptized by John the Baptist to take away the sins of the world. John the Baptist himself, before Jesus went to atone our  his sins on the cross, testified that he took them on his body at his baptism. John 1:29, 36.Ultimately Christianity today is the product of the Nicea encounter where Christianism has become like all the other religions of the world where men by their hard work, effort, and prayers of repentance become their own saviour.In conclusion, we must not put our faith in dogmas, creeds, and other councils, but in the marvelous gospel of the water and the Spirit, which gives us the certainty that our sins have been blotted out forever by the baptism of Jesus, his death, his resurrection, and his present mediation as our high priest and advocate.God Bles youKAMENAN HERMANN SERGE ADINGRA, Cote Divoire

    My Review Of English 13

    The title of this book is "WHAT DID WE BELIEVE TO RECEIVE THE REMISSION OF SINS?" This book is teaching us that there is certain Truth we must learn and believe in to receive the remission of sins. In other words, we must not believe arbitrarily according to our own thoughts. We must believe according to the Word of God. True faith must start from knowing who Jesus Christ is. Jesus Christ is God Himself, this is the first step towards having a proper faith. Those who believed in Jesus Christ without first having this faith are all bound to fall as devil will turn them into his toys to be used and dumped. I was once on taxi to home, on our way I handed over one of our books to the taxi man. He looked at it and turned his head back and told me he only reads Bible. I was curious so I went ahead and told him that we must follow God's servant whom He raised to avoid falling into false doctrines. I told him that some people do not believe according to the Word of God because they try to learn everything by themselves without waiting for God's guidance through His appointed servant. I told him that some Christians don't believe that Jesus Christ is God Himself. He reacted immediately, that Jesus Christ is not God, that He is just the Son of God. Actually I never knew that this taxi driver was a Jehovah Witness. It was at end of the conversation that he revealed that he was a member of the Jehovah Witness. I asked him in the book of Genesis, God said "Let Us make man in Our own image" Who are the people He was refering to when He said "Us" and "Our"? He said I should know that angels have been created before man (indirectly insinuating that God was referring to angels). So I asked "Are angels then made in the likeness of the image of God?" Apart from man, no other creatures were made in the likeness of the image of God. However this man faithfully hold onto his own thoughts, he didn't turn around from his mistaken belief, consequently he could not take a second glance at a book that contains the gospel of the water and the Spirit. Like this, if someone does not believe that Jesus Christ is God, he cannot believe in the gospel of the water and the Spirit. Even if he does believe in it, such faith cannot have healthy root, it will be a spineless faith. Such a faith is built on sand that is bound to collapse under a wind. The faith that Jesus is God forms the stump and root of our faith. Even among the believers in the gospel of the water and the Spirit, if anyone doesn't believe in Jesus as God, he will abandon this gospel of the water and the Spirit when he falls into spiritual troubles while serving this gospel. And he cannot receive the answers to his prayers. What gives force to our prayers is the faith that Jesus Christ is God, that He has all power to help and protect us. Those who have this faith will fly like an eagle, they will run and will not get tired. Because our God Jesus Christ will renew their strength and helps them in every step of their lives. The faith that Jesus Christ is God Himself forms the foundation of the gospel of the water and the Spirit. In John 3:5 it's written "Jesus answered, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God." The water means He was baptized to receive our sins onto Himself and the Spirit means He is God Himself who came in the flesh of man. It means that Jesus Christ was seen in appearance as a man but in the Spirit He is fundamentally God Himself. Like this, Jesus said no one can enter Heaven without faith in His Divinity. It's very important that we have this faith, that's only way to overcome the world and Satan. Also through many miracles and signs, Jesus showed His disciples that He is God Himself. He wanted them to have this faith because without the faith they will turn into empty shell and chaff that will be blown away so easily by the trickery of the devil. Jesus Christ is our Saviour God, He is God who momentarily left His glory and became a man to save us. He saved us through His baptism and bloodshed on the Cross. We cannot be saved through our own efforts, we must rather believed in what Jesus has done for us. Many Christians believed that their sins can be forgiven when they say their daily prayers of repentance and do some good deeds. It is like saying that a paralytic can stand up by his own efforts, a paralytic might think "I will get up now, I think there is strength in me." When he tries to get up, he finds out his limps can't even make a significant move. We are like this paralytic, no matter how much we try we can't help ourselves. It is Jesus Christ who healed us the paralytic with the gospel of the water and the Spirit. For our sins to be blotted out from our hearts we must believe in Jesus Christ our Saviour God who came through His baptism at the Jordan River and blood on the Cross. We are the ones who are in need of His help and mercy. He does not need any sacrifice from us, instead He wants to have mercy on us because we are pitiable to Him like a paralytic who has given up on his efforts to get up and said "God help me, I can only be helped if You help me. Help me Lord." Everyone must realise that he is a paralytic who cannot do anything by himself and seek the salvation of God. From this book, I learned what kind of sins we must not commit before God. We must not commit the blasphemy against the Holy Spirit. Christians all over the world must stop committing this deadly sins. This sin is so great that it can never be forgiven neither in this world nor in the world to come. This sin is the very sin of rejecting this gospel of the water and the Spirit which Jesus Christ fulfilled for us and refusing to believe in it. Some Christians do not even believe in the ministry of John the Baptist, because of this they cannot reach Jesus Christ. John the Baptist is the servant of God raised by God to pass the sins of the world unto the body of Jesus Christ through the baptism he gave to Jesus Christ. Without the ministry of John the Baptist, we can never meet Jesus. Those that stand against this ministry of John the Baptist that passed the sins of the world unto Jesus are committing the very blasphemy against the Holy Spirit. Sinners must cease from hurting God's heart by refusing to believe in the gospel of the water and the Spirit. This unforgivable is committed by sinners. The righteous do not commit this kind of sin. For it is written in 1 John 3:9 "Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God." The righteous cannot commit this blasphemy against the Holy Spirit as long as they hold onto this gospel of the water and the Spirit, but any righteous man who forsakes this gospel of the water and the Spirit will be committing this sin with the sinners of this world. Therefore, we must keep this gospel with all diligence. For us the righteous to keep our faith, we must continuously serve this gospel in any way or form. If we do don't serve this gospel of the water and the Spirit, our minds will be corrupted in no time and be seized by sins and consequently our hearts will be captured by false doctrines. This is reason why when a believer's conscience is deadened due sins, he will start having false faith and fall into heresies. This is how people betray their true faith in the gospel of the water and the Spirit. This will inevitably happen to those who do not serve God and the gospel of the water and the Spirit from their heart, these are those whose faith and service are halfhearted. This set of people are indecisive, they do not know whether they should serve this gospel of the water and the Spirit or the world. We must resolve our hearts to serve this gospel because Satan is looking for an opportunity devour us and have our faith crumbled down. Fellow co-workers we must guide our hearts, the world is coming to an end. We must not allow our insufficiencies to suffocate our faith. We must renew our hearts always by meditating on the gospel, thanking Jesus Christ and praying to Him. If we don't serve this gospel even for a moment, our thoughts will be surrounded by all kinds of filthy thoughts. Have you not experienced this before? I have experienced it. If we are seized by these fleshly thoughts and fail to overcome them, our souls will be cut off from the sunlight. This is the reason we must serve this gospel of the water and the Spirit continuously even though we are weak and insufficient. As long as believe in and serve this gospel our insufficiencies and weaknesses are all tolerable. Fellow saints, we have to serve this gospel of the water and the Spirit because we are the ones who have been given to know the mystery of the Kingdom of God.

    Second word from the Cross

    Main verse:“And Jesus said to him, “Assuredly, I say to you, today you will be with Me in Paradise”” (Luke 23:43). As we all know, this is the second word that our Lord Jesus Christ said during His crucifixion. When we read this verse, many questions may arise in our minds: 1) how could a criminal who has spent his entire life in sin enter paradise?  2) Can sinners enter paradise? 3) Can God break His own laws? The answer to all these questions is a resounding "No".Before explaining this verse further, I would like to tell you a very interesting incident from the Holy Scriptures. When we read John chapter 3, we can closely examine the conversation between Jesus and Nicodemus. Nicodemus was a leader of the Pharisees. There is no doubt that since he was a Pharisee, he was a man of knowledge and well versed in the law. He comes to Jesus in the dark of night so that no one sees him. He tries to flatter Jesus that he is a teacher, does many miracles, does things that no human can do. But Jesus answered the exact opposite of his questions: “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.”Here the question arises, is the law of God different for Nicodemus and different for the criminal? He was saying to the criminal, today you will be with Me in Paradise,” while he was saying to Nicodemus, who was a follower of the law, “unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.” Is God a God of Contradiction? No, not at all.At that time, all the Jews were waiting for the coming Messiah. Therefore, they knew better than any other people about the "law and sacrificial system", which God had given through Moses. They believed that the Messiah would come according to the law of atonement. And will free them from all their sins. However, they did not believe that the baptism of Jesus, according to John the Baptist, was from God to take away all the sins of the world on Jesus (Mark 11:27-33), but instead, they considered Him only a human being. The one, Who led people astray and thus, crucified Him.Because Roman citizens could not be punished by flogging or crucifixion according to the law of the Roman government (Acts 22:25-29). Therefore, we know that those who were crucified were not Romans, but Jews. We also know that the criminal was a Jew who feared God by his words, saying, “Lord, remember me when You come into Your kingdom.” (Luke 23:42). He was familiar with the law and the sacrificial system, which God had given to Moses. Therefore, he believed that the Messiah would come according to the Law of Redemption.Those who come to God must confess that they are sinners, and are destined to go to hell because of their sins. The criminal confessed his sins, saying, “And we indeed justly, for we receive the due reward of our deeds; but this Man has done nothing wrong” (Luke 23: 41). We can also know that the criminal was afraid of God, from his words; it appears that his hope was to enter the kingdom of heaven. “Lord, remember me when You come into Your kingdom.” He said, “this Man has done nothing wrong” (Luke 23:41). What did that criminal know about what Jesus did? He believed that Jesus was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, baptized by John the Baptist, the representative of all mankind, took away all the sins of the world, and was crucified. He was a Jew who believed that what Jesus had done for all people, including him; no doubt that he was crucified to receive the reward for his deeds on earth.When we study scripture carefully, we find that The Criminal knew he was a great sinner. And he knew his sinful nature, and believed that Jesus was the unblemished Lamb of God, Who took away all his sins, and that Jesus shed His blood on the cross for his sins. So he was born again and entered the kingdom of God by believing in the water (Jesus' baptism) and blood of Jesus. Being a criminal, he did evil deeds, theft, and iniquity all his life. But his deeds had nothing to do with his salvation. The main thing was his faith that enabled him to be saved because salvation is a free gift of God to every person who believes in Jesus Who came by water, blood and Spirit. As it is written in the letter to the Ephesians, “ For by grace you have been saved  through faith, and that not of yourselves;  it is the gift of God,  not of works, lest anyone should boast.” The criminal did not go to Paradise with sin. He went to Paradise justified by his faith. When he believed in the baptism (water), blood and spirit of Jesus, he was completely washed away from all the sins he had committed throughout his life.Even today, when we confess, "O Lord, I cannot avoid sinning like that criminal. I sin all the time with my thoughts, with my actions. Besides, I inherited sin from my father Adam. Therefore, I admit that I am a great sinner and cannot avoid going to hell. But I believe that you have borne all my sins through your baptism. And then shed Your precious blood for my sins. Thank you for making me righteous." Then Jesus will also say to us, “you will be with Me in Paradise”Hallelujah!   Sermon by: Sehar SalmanDate: April 7, 2023
