Carefully Read These Scriptures

"Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new." (II Corinthians 5:17)

"I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God." (Romans 12:1-2)

"And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you." (Romans 8:10-11)

"What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection: Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin." (Romans 6:1-6)

"Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost." (Titus 3:5)

A Brand New Creature
Jesus Christ wants to make you a brand new creature. That's the great beginning of a Christian life and it gets better as you follow His Word and learn to be led by the Holy Spirit. The church world has devised all kinds of cheap plans to count converts out of the unconverted masses. Millions have joined our churches that have not been born again or miraculously changed by God's supernatural powers. We do not need new schemes to make disciples out of unsaved people. We need the old-fashioned gospel to create conviction of sin that brings sinners to their knees in repentance. We make disciples by getting the lost truly converted and transformed by the power of God. A transformed person will become a disciple of Jesus Christ. We do not need better preaching to help people find God's purpose; we need better preaching to help people find God's Son as their Savior and Lord.

He Stands At The Door And Knocks
The Bible is a picture of Jesus Christ standing at the door of every living soul. The very moment you allow the Bible to start revealing Jesus Christ to you, the journey has begun. While Jesus is called the Living Word, His Bible is called His Written Word. He is literally revealed in all of Holy Scripture. The early disciples of Christ used the First Testament to prove to the unbelieving that Jesus Christ was the Son of God. The Second Testament is His personal covenant of Himself that is saturated with the power of His Spirit. If an unbelieving individual starts reading the New Testament with an honest heart, they will begin to see Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Each book of the New Testament has its own unique message about the Christian faith.

The book of Saint John is especially unique in its revelation of the Divine Son of God. It is always the best place for unbelievers or a new believer to start reading. His divine nature saturates this book, and you cannot read it with an open heart without being moved. Every chapter reveals that He was and is divine, and that He came into our world to save every sinner. No person needs to be eternally damned in the devil's hell, created uniquely for the devil because of his rebellion. Jesus wants you to be saved - totally changed - so He can break the hold Satan has on your life. Jesus has a wonderful design for your life, and it starts when you experience Him. You cannot just learn about Him and try to be like Him; you must experience Him and have an encounter with Him in His Holy Book. It's the greatest miracle and supernatural event in the entire universe.

Before I explain the "Forty Days to Experience Jesus Christ," please read the next section carefully.

God's Supernatural Plan For Salvation
There are three witnesses that God has ordained on this earth. These three witnesses or powers are indestructible and invincible. They cannot fail. All three of these powers are supernatural. It is God's one and only plan to change your life and to redeem you for all eternity. Men have sought to create their own plan or scheme for religious purposes, but they end in defeat every time. We are all religious by nature, but this religious nature is hopelessly depraved. I can produce religion, but I cannot produce salvation. Only God's ordained witnesses/powers can produce salvation from sin and the born again life.

A New Age religion will take on many forms. The most dangerous thing that can happen to you is to become part of one of today's New Age religion. Religion of any description other than pure religion will serve to inoculate you against Holy Spirit conviction. A religious person is offended when you suggest that they need to be born again. All false religions affect the soul of man where this nature is unregenerated and self-centered. No person is harder to read than a person with soul religion. The emotions of a "soul religion" experience are very real and very convincing. These people are devoted and willing to labor intently to promote their brand of faith.

God's Three Witnesses On Earth
Saint John identified God's agents to affect His earthly plan for your salvation. "And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit (Holy Ghost), and the water (Word of God), and the blood (Blood of Jesus Christ): and these three agree in one." (I John 5:8). These three witnesses are indeed supernatural. They are not earthy in nature, but divine and of the substance of God. Every humanistic religious scheme will, in some way, bypass or ignore these divine powers. Religious mystics have written multitudes of books that propose to lead you to the great spiritual life. These books often have much good to speak, but miss the primary "truths that transform."

That's why it is important that the Bible alone guides you as you reach up for God to change your life. Put aside every book but the Word of God. The Holy Spirit is a divine person. "... and He watches over the Word to perform it." You need a word for word translation of the Bible, not a paraphrased translation. New translations have watered down or destroyed much of the Scripture. The King James Bible was translated word for word and can absolutely be trusted. Other versions cannot be trusted because of their connection to the Vatican and other liberal theologians.

Here's Where You Start!

The Book of Saint John
King James Version
Give your whole heart to reading this book of Holy Scripture for forty days. You will certainly experience Jesus Christ before the forty days is finished. You may well be transformed the very first day. Please do not stop your commitment of forty days regardless of how wonderfully He reveals Himself to you before it is over. Jesus Christ is like a hidden treasure and when you experience His life in you, you will be a brand new creature. Keep searching and reading of His divine person and allow Him to fill you over and over again with His presence.

Remember This!
Most likely some will try to discourage you from this commitment. You may be warned of becoming a fanatic. Remember, almost everybody is a fanatic for someone or something and what better than being a fanatic for the Lord Jesus Christ. Do not act holier than others, but simply tell them what Jesus has done in your life. His presence in you is what convinces others that you are real.

Additional Points To Follow (very important!)

• First, make sure you have a good readable copy of the King James Bible. Get yourself a large print if you need it for easy reading.
   
• Do not be in a hurry, but read slowly and hang on to every word. Considering a Scripture and the verses around it is very important.
   
• Read each chapter at least twice before going to the next chapter. If you feel you need to read each chapter more than twice, do so. It is your spiritual mind that you are feeding, so take your time.
   
• Save part of your time each day to pray. Do not pray about anything else but your hunger to experience Jesus Christ in your life. I suggest you repeat often these simple words, "I want to personally know the Lord Jesus Christ and be His child." If you are doubtful, I even suggest for you to pray, "Father, if Jesus Christ is really real, reveal Him to me and I will serve Him all my life."
   
• If possible, spend at least two hours each day reading in Saint John and in prayer time. If you finish, do not go to another book of the Bible, but start back at chapter one. Having knowledge of every truth in Saint John will help you to know Jesus at the same level that this disciple knew Jesus. You will never forget this experience.

Please remember that once you encounter Jesus Christ in the fullness of His person, His will for your life will be progressively revealed to you. It is impossible to know His purpose without having been radically born again.

You Must Continue In Your "New Experience!"

• Take the whole Word of God literally and obey every word.
   
• Do not ever become overly given to books, videos, and audio materials. A little is okay if you test everything by the Word of God. Let the Word of God be your constant inspiration and guide.
   
• Find a Bible-believing church that still uses the King James Bible.
   
• If you cannot find a Bible-believing church, start one in your home.
   
• Wait on the Lord for His anointing upon your life so you can be used by all of the gifts of the Holy Ghost.
   
• Stay humble and gentle and never allow any degree of pride in your life.

Conclusion
My greatest desire and delight is to see souls wonderfully born again. Religion is destroying the churches of our world and damning multitudes. Jesus said it plainly, "Ye must be born again" (John 3:7). He fully stated, "Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit." (John 3:5-8). Being born again is a supernatural experience that will totally change your whole life. Do not be satisfied with anything short of being a new creature.

I'm praying for you and I want to hear about your wonderful transformation. Feel free to write, e-mail, or call our office. I will personally take a moment to pray with you and rejoice over your experience. Jesus loves you and wants to be your Savior and Lord.
