One Lord, One Faith, One Baptism

Its time for a friendly reminder on exactly what we believe in. What is the real meaning of Ephesians 4:5 when it states there is only One Lord, One Faith, and One Baptism? Why is it important to us today in 2011.

If we look around we will find on every television channel, every religious book, every church both great and small, teachings that more or less state there are multiple ways to get to heaven.

After You Believe, What Next?

Some will say “I’ve gone to church all of my life, I’ve always believed in Jesus” while others will say “Oh yeah, I believe Jesus Christ rose from the dead on the third day so that I could have eternal life through Him” However, is belief in the resurrected Christ alone enough to gain salvation? Let’s turn to the scriptures and find out.

Understanding the Oneness of God 2

The point of this blog is to share with you the importance of knowing that we worship only ONE God, what the One God’s name is and how we can refute any other teaching concerning multiple God’s or persons/personalities that make up the Godhead. This blog post will help you in your daily witness and give you a clear understanding through scripture the basic foundational belief that the bible is built upon, that being, worship of one God.

The Word of God gives us wisdom and understanding.

JAN

It Is Written

Recent statistics provide undeniable evidence that the society in which we live has been “tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine” (Ephesians 4:14).

JAN

Understanding the Oneness of God

Trinitarians (as well as all other world religious people) will ask you some questions concerning the Apostolic Pentecostal Oneness belief that Jesus is God and God is Jesus. They will attempt to use certain scriptures to justify their thinking why titles the Father, Son, Holy Ghost are 3 persons (thus the non biblical word Trinity is conceived from).

JAN

3 Tricks of the Devil

In this short but profound blog, I want you to know the three things the devil will use to trick you into sin. 1 John 2:16 says “For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.” When you operate in carnality, you are most certainly operating in one of these three areas. Satan will attempt to destroy your soul with sin. This is why it is so important to put on holiness attributes.

JAN

What is a Good Church To Be Apart Of?

Did you know the average person who claims they go to church, really does not go to a true church? They might worship in an edifice built to look like a house of God but in all honesty, the activity that goes on within the four walls of the edifice are total opposite to the True Church of Jesus Christ.

JAN

I am Pentecostal

The church we are apart of began on the day of Pentecost. Thats right, it did not begin 25, 50, or even 100 years ago. Some have a limited view of Pentecost and feel they can only trace their Pentecostal roots as far back as Azusa Street in Los Angels CA. The church did not begin on Azusa street. It began in Jerusalem as prophesied on the day of Pentecost. Pentecost is not a denomination nor an organization. It is an experience.

JAN

2012- Time For New Beginnings

2012 will be a year of changes and surprises, some unsettling, but many uplifting and inspiring. As the year progresses, many events are set to unfold which will demonstrate very clearly that a large number of people are successfully and effectively releasing themselves from the bondage of fear and from the unloving attitudes fear encourages. Humanity cannot and will not now slip back into the old ways that led to repression, conflict, and war.

JAN

The Trinity Doctrine is Pagan

The internet is filled with web-site after web-site trying to convince those who are gulliable that the One God of the Old Testament is really three Gods. But, obeying their creeds and confessions they balk at the obvious conclusion of their pagan theories and say they are forbidden to call these three *separate* persons each a God. But does not their creed say: GOD from GOD and VERY GOD from VERY GOD? God from God is certainly more than one God.

JAN

Free Will and Predestination

If Yahweh is not love but only knowledge, then it is difficult or impossible to see how human free will and divine predestination can both be true. But if Yahweh is love, there is a way.

JAN

Yahweh - More Than A Name

The common argument that any name is acceptable for calling on the heavenly Father not only violates the sanctity of Yahweh’s revealed, personal Name, but also is an assault on True Worship.

Now a push to unite all worship into monolithic, New Age religion is accomplishing its goals in the same way—exploiting key words that are important to proper worship and redefining them for mass consumption and unholy ends.

JAN

What Really Did Happen in Genesis Chapter 3?

Let's start at the beginning of Genesis chapter three:

Genesis 3:1-6

1. Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?

In the Hebrew the word serpent is Hebrew word # 5175: nachash (naw-khawsh'); a snake (from its hiss).

JAN

The True Gospel Message

In 1989 I began to cry out to Yahweh and ask Him to reveal Himself to me. I had labored in traditional church ministry for almost 25 years, was tired, frustrated and convinced that the churches as I knew was frauds. But I knew Yahweh was real and His promise was true, “The Lord is with you when you are with him.

JAN

Why I Came Out of Modern Day Christianity?

I rejected Modern Day Christianity in 1989 when, after a long time trying, Jesus finally got it through to me that Christianity is a religion that never was of him. I already knew that the truth he taught and his purpose for living on earth was not to be found anywhere in any denominational group, but I did not know until May, 1993 that it was the entire Christian religious system that was the problem.

JAN

There is a Whole Lot of Shaking Going On

There is a shaking happening across the corporate Body of Christ. Yahweh is getting us ready for an outpouring of greater glory and in the process, He is transitioning the Church into the fullness of her inheritance.

A Shaking Dream and a Broad Vision

Recently, I had a dream in which I was preaching. Whenever I have a preaching dream, I know Yahweh is trying to tell me something.

JAN

Yahweh is Looking For A Resting Place

Here at Pentecostal Broadcasting Network, we have entered a new season of Yahweh's presence with an incredible release of an open heaven. I have been living in His presence for months now, and with each passing day it grows stronger and stronger.

There is a place of breakthrough that Yahweh gives us, and as long as we protect the ground we have gained in Him, there is nothing that can hinder us from moving higher and higher in His power and glory.

JAN

A Short Study on the 5 Fold Ministry

How should the church be structured? Are any structures given in scripture? The Five-Fold Ministry is one such structure. Yahweh gave to the church, both corporate and local, the five-fold ministry. Ephesians 4:11, tells us that He gave us Apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers. The five-fold ministries represents "the hand of God" in the church today. This is the hand that performs the work that He desires in this world today.

JAN

Witchcraft, When one tries to control another

This is a topic that is very difficult to write about. I believe that it is needed. Our churches are in a shaking. People all over the world are looking for answers. They are looking for answers about Yahweh, life, salvation, and end time events... We have to realize, that there is a lot of help out there. But at the same time, there is a lot of deception out there too. And we have to know how to discern between the two.

JAN

A Holy Awakening

Have you stopped to consider lately that the point of your life may not be the point at all? Have you considered that the journey you are engaged in may not be the journey that He has for you at all? He has called you a royal priesthood adopted through His blood to reach a world full of itself, but for His name and through His name, You may be a conqueror for His name. It is through His name that we have the power not through the name of any man, but through the power of the blood of Jesus.

JAN

The Called and the Chosen

Yahweh is beginning to birth His true Church as "the Sons of God" begin to manifest in the earth. Those coming into Sonship (Romans 8:14) are being tested as never before, as the heat of Yahweh's fire intensifies. Many of Yahweh's "called" men and women continually fight through the afflictions of the darkest oppression, winning victory after victory as they near the season of their 'time.' A great separation and joining continues as men's hearts are tested and revealed.

JAN

God Has A Name

Names are important in Western culture. Parents choose names for their children after much thought and discussion. For the rest of a person's life, he is identified by the name he was given before birth. But the significance of names in our day cannot compare with the significance of names in biblical times. Ancient peoples understood that a name expressed the essence or identity of a person.

JAN

Understanding Yahweh Through Scriptures

The good news, as we try to answer this question, is that there is much that can be found out about Yahweh! Those who examine this explanation may find it helpful to first read through it entirely; then go back and look up selected Scripture passages for further clarification.

JAN

The Kingdom of God

The central message of Jesus Christ was the message of "the Kingdom of God" or "the Kingdom of Heaven". This message, when understood, is the most relevant message for the needs of humanity. It is a highly attractive message, and will produce the greatest results of any message one could give. This message must once again become the central theme of preachers and teachers in these last days.

JAN

The Holy Name of Yahshua/Jesus

In the traditional Roman calendar today is the Feast of the Holy Name of Jesus.

The Holy Name should bring to mind everything the Lord did for us so that we might be saved.

We revere His Cross and make the sign of the Cross. We also revere His Holy Name. When we hear His Holy Name we remove our hats and, during worship in the traditional form of the Roman Rite, we at times are directed by the rubrics to bend the knee.

JAN

Doing the Will of Yahweh

In one of the scriptural passages most often quoted, a “rich young man” asks the Lord what I consider to be the only question really worth asking once one reaches the age of reason and understands the reality of death: “What must I do to gain eternal life?” As we know, the Lord gives two related answers.

JAN

Understanding the names of the Father and the Son

Our Father and Creator has a Name, and His Son and our Saviour bears His Name. We have found out through our studies and the Holy Spirit being our witness that this is true. The Father's Name is Yahweh, His Son's Name is Yahshua. We've heard some people admit, that His Name is Yahweh. But they say it doesn't matter what we call Him. Or that lord and god, el and elohim is His Name. Some believe that jehovah or adonai is the Father's Name. And that jesus is the Son's Name.

DEC

From Yahweh to Our Father

Years ago, while I was living in Danville, Virginia, some very nice Jehovah’s Witnesses paid a visit to my home and tried to persuade me that I was missing out on God’s best in my life, because I was not praying to God by the correct name: Jehovah.

I disagreed with them, and still do, because of the truths that emerge from the Scriptures read at Mass for this weekend.

This Sunday is the Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God, as well as the Octave Day of Christmas.

DEC

Its Time To Wake Up

What does it mean to wake up? What are the catalysts of an awakening? Why do some people choose to remain asleep? We all know people who can sleep through an alarm clock or will continuously hit the snooze button on it, so why do some people awaken quicker than others?

The awakening is occurring on an individual basis, but also reflects the global consciousness field and group collective. In other words, as more and more people awaken, our reality shifts.

DEC

The Bride of Christ

This was a time unlike any other time in history. In his letter to the churches of Galatia, Paul affirms that the Son of God came to this earth at just the right time in the divine scheme of things. He expresses the thought like this: “But when the fullness of time came, God sent forth his son, born of a woman, born under the law.” (Galatians 4:4) For centuries this time had been in preparation.

Paul also tell us that Jesus came to fulfill all the promises made unto the fathers.

DEC

Where The Church is Heading

I'm always a little amused, but saddened too, by the the church growth and decline reports. Here's one of the most recent reports: "Growing churches continue to grow and declining churches continue to decline," according to the National Council of Churches' 2011 Yearbook of American & Canadian Churches. What many of these reports do not say is that the churches that are growing, are simply picking up the members of those leaving the declining churches.

DEC

Christmas - All Year Long

God’s Love for His children is total and without conditions of any kind. Let go of any beliefs you may have that suggest that only the good are loved, because God does not discriminate – no one is unloved or unlovable. Even those that humanity judges as mass murderers, war criminals, or guilty of any horrendous crime is a child of God and is infinitely loved.

Christmas is a time to come together, sharing love and forgiveness, and no one should be excluded from your loving thoughts.

DEC

Teaching - observing, listening and discerning

Teaching is not talking and telling. Rather, teaching is observing, listening and discerning so we then know what to say." This simple sentence is packed with meaning for each of us as gospel learners, teachers and parents.

DEC

The Battle for the Kingdom of God

The battle we are all called upon to fight is not external. Some people spend their time stirring people up to alarm them about carnal security. They are trying to sell something. There are fortunes being made by proponents of fear. But the audience for such things are only being distracted from a much greater, more immediate battle.

DEC

The Doctrine of Jesus Christ

Jesus complained to the Nephites about their religious arguments. He called such disagreements over religion "contention" and said it was His doctrine that "such things should be done away." (3 Ne. 11: 30.) Seems we want to believe in Christ, but reject His doctrine.

DEC

The Gift of the Atonement

I want everybody to understand that in this life we only have a very limited amount of priesthood authority to function with. There are many ordinances that as yet must be given to us in the next world. One of them is the ordinance of resurrection. We’re not allowed to perform that ordinance here. It’s an ordinance of the priesthood, we’ll get it over there.

DEC

A Personal Relationship With Jesus

This is one of those areas where I have “holy envy” for our Evangelical friends’ passion for Christ. I think that expressing one’s status before God and Christ as a “personal relationship” is not only fitting but desirable. Our scriptures in several places describe various individuals as being the “friend(s)” of God. To me, exaltation (theosis) is nothing more nor less than becoming a close friend to God and thus sharing in the fulness of his glory.

DEC

Yahweh - Our Heavenly Father

There is within every human being, young and old, male and female, a hunger to know God. And therefore today I want to ask not only one of the most difficult but also, I believe, the most important questions there is to ask: Who is God? And to answer that question I am going to turn to the Hebrew scriptures - the Tanakh - what we have come to know as the 'Old Testament' because it is there that we will learn the most about our Heavenly Father.

DEC

The Name Yahweh

“Yahweh” is the most probable best transliteration of this most holy proper name from the Hebrew consonants YOD HE WAW HE, or YHWH. This holy name is sometimes rendered “Jehovah” based on the mixture of the vowels for “Adonai” (Lord) with the consonants “YHWH” as it is written in some later Hebrew manuscripts.

DEC

Predestination- God's Gift of Grace

When we hear the word Predestination in our day, to many it has almost taken on the connotation of being a dirty word. The prevalent view has shifted from Sovereignty of God to choose, to the untenable view that Christ went to the cross and atoned for the sins all mankind.

DEC

The concept of a tree of life, a many-branched tree illustrating the idea that all life on earth is related, has been used in science (see tree of life (biology)), religion, philosophy, mythology, and other areas. A tree of life is variously:a motif in various world theologies, mythologies, and philosophies; a mystical concept alluding to the interconnectedness of all life on our planet; and a metaphor for common descent in the evolutionary sense.

DEC

2012 and the Kingdom of God

As we have approached the 12th month of 2011 as we see it is coming to a close! The Lord is increasing in those that have made a decision to let (allow) His Kingdom to come in them! The Lord has shown me some things pertaining to 2012 ..... But we must understand it is for the obedient! As I was composing this message about His Kingdom, I could feel and sense such an awareness that Jesus is coming very soon.

JAN

Understanding What it means to be Holy

To be Holy doesn't just mean we keep ALL the rules. All though there are rules to be kept in the Christ life. It doesn't mean we dot all the I's and cross all the T's. To be HOLY means we are separated FROM this world (but that is not the end, it is the means to a greater end) in order to be separated UNTO God! So the man that is Holy recognizes above all other men, the Uniqueness of GOD and have a HEART that wants only HIM.

JAN

Dealing with Abuse in the Churches

What I have learn in 15 years is very simple: if you go to church regularly, if you give your offerings, if you keep yourself quiet, then you are a good christian, a very spiritual person...but...if for any reasons you don't agree anymore with the leadership of your church or if you start questioning about what the church does or doesn't, then you became arrogant, proud and selfish!

The first being that it is very important to not allow yourself to become bitter over these types of experiences,

JAN

Understanding Organized Religions

"Judge not, lest you be judged"; "Compassion and tolerance"; "Meekness"; "love"; "Never a harsh word".

Those are a sampling of the scriptures and sentiments used to render Christianity in this country and the West – impotent and of no power. Modern Christianity has constructed an entirely new Jesus for itself. A Jesus whom would never utter an angry word of condemnation, would never fight or go to war, who does not condemn sin or expect His followers to overcome sin.

JAN

Coming out of Churchianity

We must always be sure to distinguish between the Lord's invisible, universal, spiritual Church (the Ecclesia) and the non-profit religious organization that meets in a building with a steeple on top. The difference is incalculable, and we dare not make the mistake of confusing the two.

JAN

Churchianity verses Christianity

We are living in an age of shames and counterfeits. Satan seems to have abandoned the hope of crushing out the Christian Church by a process of undisguised hostility, and now seeks to destroy her efficiency by stealthily draining off her vitality, and robbing her of every supernatural element. He "transforms himself into an angel of light", and often assumes to be the special friend and guardian of the Church.

JAN

Understanding and Applying God's Word For Today

To understand, we must first learn to listen. Listening is the discipline of quieting our mental self-talk and focusing our concentration elsewhere. If we seek to understand others, does a natural path open up in others to understand us? When we attempt to understand an alternative viewpoint through the eyes of someone else there is a shift in our thought process, we are more willing to listen and perceive what someone else is trying to communicate.

JAN

Pray in the Spirit

It is kind of quiet on the home front. I guess it's the calm before the storm. Pretty soon prophetic events will start to unfold and a lot of people will be deceived by the fallen angels and especially the anti-christ. The people that will be deceived will be the sleepwalkers, the ones that are totally engrossed in their daily lives and have forgotten about the Lord or are in religion which is man made and teaches man made doctrines and dogmas.

JAN

The Changes that are Coming Here on the Earth

Without a doubt we are living in turbulent times. People no longer believe that our major institutions: banks, churches, governments and multi national industries always have our best interests at heart. Many of these are crumbling from within as secrecy, self service, corruption and greed comes into public awareness. Signs abound all around us of major changes within our planetary societies.

JAN

The Kingdom of God in 2010

The Prophetic and Apostolic movements of the past 25 years has yielded apostles and prophets, many who want to be known by "title" recognition, and interpretations of authority and of their giftings, and has only served to produce a new generation of religionist in the name of the kingdom, but in effect, are not kingdom leadership because in part they seek to "be served" in the name of serving.

JAN

Listen, A Message for the Church

Listen, let me just say I don't know a whole lot but if you have studied the Historical Church and studied Jewish History you will find lots of good things and bad things. Things done on behalf of the Jews and things done in the Name of Jesus that were just horrible. I don't have to tell you if you know your history on behalf of religion. Your Bible that collects dust can give you historical proof of many of these situations.

DEC

What is God saying to the Churches Today

The time is at hand for all things to draw together. The rain of God's spirit is increasing and renewal and revival is sweeping across this land. This revival will go much beyond your boundaries and ministry will truly come forth from the overflow.

The Truth about Freemasonry

Information compiled by Anyeot

Freemasonry claims to be compatible with "Christianity," but it is not. Freemasonry denies that it is a religion, but it is. Freemasonry denies that it worships Lucifer, but it does. Freemasonry is derived from Satan, who is, according to Jesus, "a liar and the father of liars." Freemasonry is a rival religion to Christianity, and it is a Luciferian Cult.

Understanding the New Age Movement

Information compiled by Anyeot

The New Age Movement is an extremely large Satanic NETWORK, with no official leader, headquarters, or membership list and its influence is everywhere. Basically, what it comes down to is…if you're not Christian, you're New Age. The philosophies of this ungodly movement have their roots in ancient occult traditions, dating back to Nimrod and the Tower of Babel.

The Evil Plan of Satan

Let me start this article with the explanation of something that is AKIN to GM crops, which will help the reader understand better what the plan of Satan was from the beginning!

In other articles on this website, it explains the hybridization OF MAN that was STARTED right at the beginning, after God created mankind.

DEC

The New World Order, Aliens and the End Times

Information compiled by Anyeot

Channeling is a merging between humans and disincarnate spirits. The practice of engaging familiar spirits is one of the most pervasive New Age methods in use today.

These "inner guides" may present themselves as a master, an Ascended Master, The Higher Self, a power animal, an angel of light, etc.

The Veil is being lifted..the time will come when men will reject sound doctrine and accept doctrine of devils..aliens..through false prophets..todays pastors..

The Book of Life

"And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his heads the names of blasphemy. And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world" (Rev. 13:1,8).

DEC

Victim Mentality vs. Self-Responsibility

Another type of thinking that we can become stuck in is victim mentality. When we have this mentality, we blame all our problems on others. We fail to take responsibility for our actions or for the lives we are leading. Let's be clear about the difference between being a victim and having a victim mentality. Many people are victims of terrible ordeals and traumas—physical, sexual or emotional abuse, assault or violence. These are terrible crimes and terrible experiences.

DEC

The Mind of God

There is in the mind of God a plan which embraces every creature of all his vast domains, and this plan is an eternal purpose of boundless opportunity, unlimited progress, and endless life.

Speaking to those of the Christian Tradition

I was led to Christ at the tender age of 9 while sitting on my grandfather's lap. I was raised in a devout, churchgoing Christian home. I have been in Gospel ministry all of my adult life (I am 46 years old). I have attended or have degrees and/or diplomas from 4 colleges or Bible schools. I have been a minister for 34 years and counting. I have spoken in churches and Christian gatherings all over the country.

DEC

The Sacred Name of God

In Hebrew, the sacred, divine name of God is spelled with four Hebrew letters: yod, hei, vav, and hei, or, in English, YHVH. This four-lettered name is called the tetragrammaton, which means "four letters."

This name, YHVH, is found 6,823 times in the Hebrew Bible. Hebrew scholars and rabbis all agree that the exact pronunciation of these four letters has been lost throughout the centuries.

DEC

The Grace of Acceptance

No matter where we are on the path to enlightenment it warrants a pause of rest and reflection. We have traveled far and gained so much knowledge and wisdom. Can we give ourselves credit for all the inner work we've done? Not only inner work, we've had to do a lot on the physical level as well, during this year of renegotiating the terms of our lives. Now is a time to just allow all of the energies around us to settle down and integrate. Be still for a moment and just allow. Fear not.

Leaving 2009 Behind, and Looking Toward the Future

I come on this day to accentuate and to activate the light that you are, the light that you have always been and the light that you are about to become. For many years, I have told you that this next level of Light will be vaster than your memory, vaster than your awareness, and vaster than you knew before your journey into humanness. This past year has been a year of clearing, of cleansing, of healing, and of letting go.

Television and Mind Control

Television is the most powerful weapon of psychological warfare in history and yet it is a member of the family in most households. The programming that we are constantly assaulted with conditions us to a particular worldview. This fake reality changes our behavior making us less active and more compliant with society's shortcomings. Since television is controlled by a small handful of powerful corporations, viewers will never witness informing, truthful news and entertainment.

NOV

Why I am a Minister

What I do when I speak publicly and minister through the Spirit is an entirely natural process that you practice every day whenever you feel your spirit in a moment of clarity, inspiration, guidance, or love. What initially starts as an instinctive nudge from spirit can be developed into a powerful voice of communication that is discovered to be your voice – that which speaks your passion thereby unfolding your self-creation.

NOV

The Heart of God

As you open up and truly become the living heart of God, there is something that you will discover that will change everything. This discovery is that the heart of God, beloved ones, the heart of God only loves. Now at first this may seem no different from all the things that I have said to you, and all the ways I've opened you into the truth of only Love. But it is actually very different, because you have made the shift becoming the Real heart of God. Therefore, you are only loving.

Coming out of the Matrix

We can see it in our eyes. We have the look of a man who accepts what he sees because he is expecting to wake up. Ironically, that's not far from the truth.

Let me tell you why you're here. You're here because you know something. What you know you can't explain, but you feel it. You've felt it your entire life, that there's something wrong with the world. You don't know what it is, but it's there, like a splinter in your mind, driving you mad. It is this feeling that has brought you to me.

Why I use the King James Version of the Bible

As a minister, I have been asked why I use the outdated King James Version. To answer that, we must touch on some complex and technical subjects. I, accordingly, have attempted to simplify the manner to a degree that most can understand.

In Proverbs 22:28 the Bible says to "Remove not the ancient landmarks which thy fathers have set." A landmark is a surveyor's term and refers to a benchmark or property marker.
