Our ministry is to reach out to the world with the Good News of Jesus Christ and to help believers be equipped with a solid knowledge of the Word of God, the Bible, and be encouraged to apply it in every aspect of their daily lives. There are simple truths for these complex times to help people live in a way that brings real spiritual victory to them and more importantly, through the Lord Jesus Christ, glory to God our Father.

Psalms 9:15
The nations have sunk down in the pit which they have made; In the net which they hid, their own foot has been caught.

The apostle Paul, moved by the Holy Spirit, wrote that we should not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, he will also reap. {Gal.6:7} All of the horrible things, wars and crime, along with many 'natural' disasters that are happening all over the world have blossomed and grown by the seeds sown by mankind's sinfulness.

God made that clear to all who will heed His voice when He spoke through the prophet Isaiah saying: "The earth is also polluted by its inhabitants, for they transgressed laws, violated statutes, broke the everlasting covenant. Therefore, a curse devours the earth, and those who live in it are held guilty." {Is.24:5-6} Climate change! Nothing has changed in fallen mankind since Adam and Eve sinned in the Garden!

If you are indeed a bible believing child of God, you know that the flood in the time of Noah {Gen.6:13} was not a natural disaster, it was supernatural judgment. And we have not seen anything yet! The Lord has said It will not be the water, it will be the fire next time! {1Pt.3:7} That is His plan to cleanse the world, not of carbon dioxide or deforestation, or lack of water safe to drink. or untold numbers of other things happening even now in this day and age, but of sin! So like Noah, do what is necessary to be saved—As Paul told the jailer in Philippi, "Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved." {Acts 16:31}

Yes, we are saved by faith, which comes from hearing Jesus—the Word made flesh—and then of course that faith must come to life as we act upon what we have heard. {Jas.2:17-18} Otherwise, like the world we will sink back down into that pit which the 'world' has dug for us! Thankfully, God had a plan for all who will accept Him which He revealed through the prophet Jeremiah: “For I know the plans that I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope.” {Jer.29:11} So, rejoice in His plan which the Lord accomplished for us who have accepted His free gift of salvation:

“He brought me up out of the pit of destruction, out of the miry clay, and He set my feet upon a rock making my footsteps firm. He put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God; Many will see and fear and will trust in the Lord. How blessed is the man who has made the Lord his trust, and has not turned to the proud, nor to those who lapse into falsehood.” (Psalms 40:2-4)

TRUST AND OBEY—THERE IS NO OTHER WAY
