***FROM THE DESK OF PASTOR JACK***

Having accepted God's call to leadership in Christ & the Church, I covenant with God to serve Christ & His Church with God's help, to deepen my obedience to the Two Great Commandments to love the Lord our God with all my heart soul, mind, & strength, & to love my neighbor as myself....
Christians & their churches are to be involved in ministry to people in need.
The devil tries to make Christians feel as though it was their idea to sin. But the man on the inside-the spirit- man does not want to do wrong. It is the unregenerate d flesh that trips them up.
"The joy of the Lord is your strength" [Nehemiah 8:10].
"God is the Treasurer of my soul; The source of lasting joy; A joy which time cannot impair Nor death itself destroy."
"Be filled with the Spirit"[ Eph. 5:18].
Ye are complete [filled] in him." [Col. 2:10].
John the Baptist was the last Old Testament prophet. I consider him a transitional prophet from the Old Testament order to the New Testament apostolic order (Ephesians 4:11). He said that Jesus was the baptizer of the Holy Ghost and fire (Matthew 3:11-13). The baptism of the Holy Ghost doesn’t come from man but Christ. It was vital in the ministry of the apostles and it’s vital for you too.
*May the eyes of your heart be enlightened so you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the glorious riches of his inheritance among the saints, and what is the immeasurable greatness of His power to us who believe.*Eph 1:18-19* *When I do not know what pray, I thank You, Father, that the (Holy) Spirit comes to my aid and bears me up in my behalf He, the Holy Spirit, goes to plead in my behalf. He intercedes in my behalf in harmony with God's will.*
