I Have Decided to Follow Jesus

I have decided to follow Jesus,
I have decided to follow Jesus,
I have decided to follow Jesus,
No turning back, no turning back.

Though none go with me, still I will follow,
Though none go with me, still I will follow,
Though none go with me, still I will follow;
No turning back, no turning back.

My cross I'll carry, till I see Jesus,
My cross I'll carry till I see Jesus,
My cross I'll carry till I see Jesus,
No turning back, No turning back.

The world behind me, the cross before me,
The world behind me, the cross before me,
The world behind me, the cross before me,
No turning back, no turning back.

The Lord's Prayer


Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy Name,
thy kingdom come,
thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory,
for ever and ever. Amen.

Source: Book Of Common Prayer, based on
Matthew 6:9-13

Declaration Of Faith

The Apostles' Creed
This historic affirmation of faith comes to us from the early centuries of
the Christian church.
MP3 audio file at
http://www.internetchurchofchrist.org/binaries/apostlescreed.mp3 - free,
Public Domain

I believe in God, the Father Almighty,
Maker of heaven and earth:
And in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord;
Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit;
Born of the Virgin Mary,
Suffered under Pontius Pilate,
Was crucified, dead, and buried;
He descended into hell;
The third day he rose again from the dead;
He ascended into heaven
And sitteth at the right hand of God the Father Almighty;
From thence He shall come to judge the quick and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit;
The holy catholic church; *
The communion of saints;
The forgiveness of sins;
The resurrection of the body;
And the life everlasting.

Amen.


* Note: "catholic church" here means the entire body of
believers in Christ, not just one particular church.


Blessings to you in Jesus Christ our Lord,

Scriptures And Teachings -
The Christian Doctrine Of Universal Salvation

The Christian Doctrine of Universal Salvation, or Universal
Reconciliation, states that all people, no matter how evil they may be,
are created by God; and that God the Father, acting through His Son, Jesus
Christ, will eventually bring all people back to Himself and into Heaven,
by means which we cannot know or understand. After death, each person will
be judged by God according to his deeds.There is punishment for evildoing,
according to God's desire for justice. But this punishment is temporary
and not eternal. Eventually, everyone comes back to God the Father, by
Jesus Christ, His Son.
This doctrine is based firmly on the Bible, as shown below. And it
directly opposes and contradicts the various doctrines of eternal
punishment and damnation which are erroneously held by many other
Christian groups.


Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: If everyone eventually gets into Heaven, what is the point of accepting
Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour at this time? Why not wait?
A: As soon as you truly accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour, your
past sins are forgiven, and the blessings of Salvation begin immediately.
So sooner is better than later.

Q: What about repentance? Don't you also need to repent of your past sins?

A: Yes. But full repentance is not possible until after you accept Jesus,
because you cannot recognize many of your sins until after the Holy Spirit
has come to dwell within you.

Q: But what about the Bible verses which seem to talk about eternal
punishmnet for those who do not accept Jesus?

A: Wherever a Bible word is is translated as "eternal," it is better
translated as "continuous," meaning "continuous for a time," not
"continuous through infinity." Eventually, somehow, everyone will accept
Jesus, and punishment will end for them at that time.

Q: Why should people escape punishment simply by accepting Jesus Christ as
their Lord and Saviour? Where is the justice in this?

A: Sin requires punishment: this is justice. But God is merciful as well
as just. And in His mercy, God has allowed Jesus to die voluntarily on the
cross as punishment and payment for the sins of all mankind. But in order
to receive this merciful gift, each person must accept Jesus as his own
personal Lord and Saviour. Until this eventually happens for each person
-- in this worldly life or in some other kind of existence -- the normal
rules of sin and punishment continue to apply, with the severity of the
punishment being proportional to the seriousness of the sin.

May the Holy Spirit dwelling within you lead you and guide you into His
truth, as He chooses to reveal it to you.

Blessings to you in Jesus Christ our Lord.

Rededicate Your Life To Jesus Christ - With MP3 Audio Prayer

O Lord, I had You with me, and I strayed.
I turned my back on You and went away.
But now I see the error of my ways,
And now I want to turn again to you.

* * *

I pray that You will come into my life,
As Lord and Saviour, ruling over me.
I know that You are truly Son of God,
I know that You have risen from the dead,
I know that only You can save my soul.
I need Your guidance, and I need Your love;
I want to follow everywhere You lead.
I truly do repent of all my sins;
I feel remorse for evil I have done;
I know that only You can make me clean.
I turn my back on sin and look to You.
I am forgiving all who did me harm,
As You are now forgiving all my sins.
And now as I commit myself to You,
I pray that You commit Yourself to me.
I pray that You will take me as I am,
And draw me, step-by-step, into Your arms.
In Jesus' holy name I pray, Amen.

How To Find A Real, Live Church

An online church is better than no church at all; but it is even better
for most Christians to actually belong to a real, live church, with real,
live people. Then, you can have your real church PLUS your online church,
so you gain the benefits of both. You can find a church for yourself by

Benediction


I pray the Lord that He will lead your path
Away from the temptations all around.
I pray that when temptation lingers near,
The Lord will lead you not into its reach.
But if temptation grabs you as you pass,
I pray the Lord that you will struggle free.
In Jesus' holy name I pray, Amen.

Blessings to you in Jesus Christ our Lord.
