“How can YOU receive the
overflow?”
Now YOU can receive the overflow – here's how… 1. By Praise: which touches God's heart
2. By Prayer : which increases your confidence and releases Angels to go forth on your behalf to speed up the
blessing's
3. By Participation: make your faith an action (say what the Word says and do what the Word says to do.) Take an active part in your church. If you don't know what you're called to do, do whatever your hand finds to do until you discover your unique gift or calling. Be active with your family, loving them, and spending time with them. There is an order with God: God first, family second, and then your job/ministry/etc… Become a student of the Word and take every opportunity that comes your way to share the good news of how God is changing your life.

| ‘saved’ or one with Christ. We offer easy to understand questions and answers to help you make the right decision for your spirit’s eternal destiny. |
| |
| Q |
What is salvation and why get saved?
|
| A |
We believe in hell and eternal retribution.
The one who physically dies in his sins without
Christ is hopelessly and eternally lost (Revelation
19:20). Salvation is redemption from eternal damnation
and restoration back to God (Mark 16:16). We believe
man is a created being made in the likeness and
image of God, but through Adam's transgression and
fall, sin came into the world. "All have sinned
and come short of the glory of God" (Romans
3:23). |
| |
|
| Q |
How do I get saved?
|
| A |
We believe man's first step toward
salvation is godly sorrow that worketh repentance.
The new birth (being born-again) is necessary to
all men, and when fulfilled produces eternal life
(II Corinthians 7:10). We believe that Jesus Christ
is the Son of God and that He was born of a virgin,
was crucified, died, was buried, and on the third
day He arose from the dead and ascended on high
where He took His seat at the right hand of God
the Father Almighty until His enemies become His
footstool (1 Corinthians 15:3-4) |
| |
|
| Q |
Do I need to be baptized?
|
| A |
We believe in water baptism by immersion, which
is a direct commandment of Jesus and is for Believers
only. (Acts 2:38; Acts 16:33; Matthew 28:19)
|
| |
|
| Q |
What about speaking in tongues?
|
| A |
We believe in the indwelling of the Holy Spirit
and the baptism of the Holy Spirit with the evidence
of speaking in other tongues as the Holy Spirit
Himself gives utterance. (Acts 2:38-39)
|
| |
|
| Q |
Now that I'm saved, what's next?
|
| A |
We believe the Bible teaches that
without Holiness no man shall see the Lord. The
doctrine of Sanctification is a definite, yet progressive
work of grace (Hebrews 12:14). |

| Prayer of
Salvation |
| Heavenly
Father, I come to You in the Name of Your Son Jesus
Christ. You said in Your Word that whosoever shall
call upon the Name of the Lord shall be saved (Romans
10:13). Father, I am calling on Jesus right now.
I believe He died on the cross for my sins, that
He was raised from the dead on the third day, and
He's alive right now. Lord Jesus, I am asking You
now, come into my heart. Live Your life in me and
through me. I repent of my sins and surrender myself
totally and completely to You. Heavenly Father,
by faith I now confess Jesus Christ as my new Lord
and Savior from this day forward, I dedicate my
life to serving Him. |

| Receiving
The Pastor’s Heart |
| |
| And I will give
you pastors according to mine heart, which shall
feed you with knowledge and understanding. (Jeremiah
3:15) |
| |
| "What is this about
receiving the heart of my Pastor? I cannot possibly
receive anyone's heart, can I? “When receiving
the heart of the Pastor, you are adopting his way
of thinking and his methods of doing things. You
begin to think as he would think. For example, our
Pastor places top priority on understanding the
Word of God; therefore, you would also begin to
think of the Word as being first priority. A person's
priority thinking can easily be found by looking
at his vision. One of the main focuses of the Church
vision is understanding. Implementing his method
of doing things can be done by doing those things
that make understanding the Word of God top priority.

"Who
is the Pastor?" Our Pastor is not
simply a man, but he is God's appointed
man for the Church. Romans 13:1 tells
us, “. . . but there is
no power but of God. - the powers that
be are ordained of God. Hebrews 13:17
also tells us, "to obey them (Pastor)
that have rule (authority) over you,
and submit yourselves: for they (Pastor)
watch for your souls, as they (Pastor)
that must give account, they (Pastor)
may do it with joy, and not with grief.
For that is unprofitable for you. ”
It is important to realize that the
Pastor has been sent as a gift from
God.
Ephesians 4:11-12 says, And “he
gave. . Pastors . . for the perfecting
of the saints, for the edifying of the
body of Christ. ” The
key thing here is not
the person
of the Pastor, but the
office of the Pastor.
It is the office of the Pastor that
has been sent for the perfecting of
the saints. According to Jeremiah 3:15
the Pastor perfects or benefits the
saints by feeding you (them)
with knowledge and understanding.

There are two reasons you will
not receive the benefits of your Pastor.
First, if you do not realize that he
is a gift from God. It would be as if
your parents bought you a telescope
as a gift, and forgot to tell you they
purchased it. One night you are looking
in the sky to view the spectacular rings
of Saturn (only visible maybe every
3 years), but you cannot see clearly
because you have no telescope. You cannot
receive the benefit of having the telescope
if you do not realize what is yours.
The same applies for our Pastor, if
we never realize that he is a gift,
we will never receive the benefits.
The second reason you will not receive
the benefits of the Pastor, is if you
do not esteem him highly. Esteem simply
means to respect, appreciate, or hold
high regard for.
"If
our Pastor is a gift from God, why isn't
he perfect?" We must realize that
the man is not perfect, but the ministry
gift is perfect. The Bible tells us
to know, no man after the flesh; therefore,
if you know your pastor after the spirit,
his imperfections in the flesh will
not hinder you from receiving from him.
"How can I know my Pastor after
the Spirit?"
I Thessalonians 5:12-13 says, “And
we beseech you, brethren, to know them
which labour among you, and
are over you in the Lord, and
admonish you, to esteem them very highly
in love for their work's sake . . .
” The word "know"
means to understand or to receive the
heart of him. When you get to know the
Pastor, you are simply getting to know
his heart. "How?" Again by
understanding his way of thinking, and
method of doing things. |
