Brothers and Sisters in Christ, please pray for me. God sent me a beautiful woman after 4 years being saved. I love her so much and she is more than I could have asked for Praise Jesus. But honestly, my hear tis heavy...lusts from the old man have risen up inside me and burned hot, and I have done some things with this lifelong Christian woman I should have never even dreamed. I know I am forgiven, but I am so broken inside knowing how poor some of my decisions were. I know I am growing as a man in Christ through this, and I was God to speak to me. My girlfriend is scared because she doesn't know my anxieties, becasue she doesn't understand how big of an issue lust is for men this day in age. I don't want to be reminded everyday of the mistakes of yesterday. I am asking for God's great and unfailing mercy to pour out over this broken man, that I would have a totally underserved second chance to show God how much I appreciate and value His creation (my girlfriend) that He has prepared for me and blessed me with. I know I have not been glorifying Him through some of the lusts of the flesh i have consumed with this woman of God. I don't want her life forever tainted with these mistakes, and I want to move past this so I can continue to praise God for all that He is.
Please Pray for my Husband

2/3/2010 9:55 PM
Please pray for my husband. He is very deeply depressed. He is acting out because of it. He is only 29 and everyone says its like hes going through a midlife crisis. He was once very close to God and loved God very much. Now, he really doesnt care. He doesnt have any desire to serve the Lord. He travels a lot for work and is not home very much, even though his doctor told him that if he continued to, he would only get worse. He is giving into temptation from coworkers. He has been drinking and using marajuana. He has never been a drinker before. He is numb to all feelings, he even says he doesnt love me anymore. I am trying to save my marriage because I know it is in Gods will. we have two little girls depending on us. I am starting to grow weary. I dont know how much more I can take. he says he wants our marriage to work, but it seems he wants me to do all the work. like he wants me to just keep quiet about any hurt i have inside. He asked me not to stop praying for him, even if our marriage does end. So, he knows that how he is living is wrong. God is the only strength I have left. I dont want to let God, my children, or my husband down. I dont want my marriage to end. please pray for my husband and our family. We are Gods children. I want us to serve him the way we used to. PLEASE PLEASE pray for us with all of your heart. Thank You for your time! God Bless!!!

My daughter, who has cerbral palsy, lost her dog on Wed. The neighbor shot him for walking through his yard. This has been a terrible loss for her and she is so sad. Our septic system has failed and we have to come up with 50% down on the $10,000 repair of the exisiting system. Our finances are tapped out. I try to do the right things, help others, give to those less fortunate and have even unofficially adopted 3 homeless teenagers to provide them with a loving environment. My husband and I have supported these three children for the last several years without asking for help from anyone. It was just the right thing to do. I realize that you only give us as much as we can handle but I am at my breaking point. I feel like giving up hope. Why try when the world will just keep beating you back down? How can I come up with $5000 when I can barely make ends meet? I desperately need your help Lord. The good book says, "Do not worry, I will provide everything you need." I need a new septic system, I need the man that shot my daughter's dog to feel your wrath. I need my husband to stop worrying about every little thing and be supportive so I don't have to carry the burden of everything that goes wrong. I feel weary and insignificant and abandonded by the Lord. My oldest son has been accused of robbing his ex-girlfriend, the future mother of his child and is currently sitting in jail fresh off of suicide watch. He has given up hope and is simply prayer for death. I just can't take anymore, I want to fall on my knees and cry out for help, but I don't think you are listening. What have I done to betray your love Lord? Why are all of these terrible things happening all at once? What do you want me to do? How do I come up with $5000 when I couldn't even get someone to loan me $10 thanks to my son's medical bills that he incurred at age 17 (he's now 21) to the tune of $38,000? Please send me options, send me a sign that it's going to be okay.

Praise praise the Lord who is forever faithful. What shall I give unto the Lord all I can say is thank you Lord. I have cried unto God and the Lord has shown mercy in the land of the living. My sister was in coma during xmas and new years period. But the Lord who is always faithful knew she has not finished her purpose on earth and brought her back to the land of the living. Doctors could not understand her sickness but I kept my faith by telling them that don't Anna will arise. God wanted to show people on earth that no one is above him. Many people lamented and used their naked eyes and they expected the worst but HEHEHEDE my God is good my dear friends prayer is the key that helped me to unlock what the devil has destined for my beloved sister. During that period the devil attcked me using a dear person to me. at first I was filled with fear but I kept my faith. I prayed for the spirit of fear, sound mind and love. Upto now I am still struggling to show love although the fear had gone. Help me to pray that the Lord of mercy will make me forgive fully this person. after attacking me He went around and spoke what I did not do and what I will dream of doing but My God kept on holding me and I did not loose focus. One thing that kept me going is 'I know that the devil will not attack those in his territory and he can not just attack you if have not got thing good. Praise the for the accusations for I know my God has delivered me from all of them Satan you are a looser people keep on praying for me because the devil is at hand and I refuse him around me. I have the power of God in me and I am a threat to the devil. Anna is very well now and just waiting for her to be out of the hospital. Praise praise the Lord. Pray for me for the love of God that never ends. I really need to see beyond this person. I don't want the event that if someone accuses me of anything I see his face I want to the glory of God in him. I will sing of his mercies forever I will sing of the mercies of the Lord. are u sick, troubled by the madness around you, have u lost hope, my dear brethren hope does not dissapoint you and trusting in God will give you evrlasting peace. Lokk unto God the author and finisher of your faith. remember the arms o flesh will fail you. I hope you will be blessed and encouraged by this testimony. challenges will come but you will become champions

Thank you Lord Jesus for never giving up on me! Folks no matter how much you are hurting, no matter how hard it seems, no matter how far you've fallen, no matter hopeless it looks trust in His Word. He loves us so much. He never gives up on us! However terrible it looks He will make all things work for our good! TRUST HIS WORD! I never thought I could get back to being on fire for Him again but He brought me back after YEARS of lost hope to a place I thought I would never find again. If I had only believed with all my heart all those years ago that His word was true.. If I'd believe there is NO condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. If I'd believed He came so that I might have Life abundant and it is the thief who comes to steal, kill and destroy I could have saved so much pain.. But Jesus still loves me and He still heals my pain. Believe His word is true for you! Thank you Lord Jesus Christ!

God bless you!
Pardon our mess - we are permanently under construction -- building unity in the body of Christ until Jesus comes!
What Denomination Is This???
We are frequently asked this question, and the answer is always the same: Christian.
This site is dedicated to the God of the Bible. God has revealed Himself, and is revealing Himself, through God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. As a non-denominational Christian site, we concentrate on the essential Christian doctrine that unites us as a body of believers.
The Church is the collection of all those who believe and follow Jesus as their Lord and Saviour. Being saved by the blood of Christ is not a denominational issue. And those whom the Lord has saved, are saved by grace through faith alone in Him, trusting in Christ as Lord and Saviour. They are NOT saved by belonging to a particular denomination.
The Lord has called for us, through His Word, to love our brothers and sisters in Christ:
34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one
another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one
another.
35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples,
if ye have love one to another.
(John 13:34-35)
We may strongly differ in some doctrinal matters, but are called to unity in core doctrinal beliefs, like the Deity of Christ, the Trinity, and other core doctrine that makes up Christianity. The Lord looks to your heart, and not your denomination, in His love for you. The core doctrine we preach is that if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, that you shall be saved:
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus,
and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him
from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
(Romans 10:9)
So our denomination is "classic Christianity", witnessing that Jesus died on the cross for your sins, so that you might live. We have provided a few key scriptures in our statement of faith to summarize where we stand, although we believe it is important to recognize that the whole Bible is the Word of God, and that all doctrinal matters must be tested in the light of scripture as the final authority. A statement of faith can at best only capture the highlights or key doctrinal matters of ones faith:
Statement of Faith
Our emphasis on the roots of classic Christianity is an attempt to bring together the Body of Christ. With this website, we are trying to build a place for the body of Christ to come together in fellowship - a place where those who worship the Lord Jesus Christ can share in their love for God.
Cults, the False Church, and Heresy
- 13
- Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
- 14
- Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
- 15
- Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
Matthew 7:13-15 (KJV)
For those involved in cults and the false church, such as Mormons, Jehovah's Witnesses, and others, we pray that this site will lead you to the Truth, that Jesus is the incarnate God, and salvation comes through Him, and only Him. If this applies to you, we would be glad to help find somebody to pray with you, and help you discover the Truth available through the Holy Spirit, and God's inerrant Word, the Bible. We are not called to unity in Christ at the expense of false doctrine or luke-warm faith, but rather, we are called to unity in Christ on matters of essential Christian doctrine. This unity acknowledges that brothers and sisters in the Lord are united through core beliefs like the deity of Christ Jesus, Salvation by grace, and belief in the Trinity, even though we may differ on issues like perseverance of the saints, limited atonement, and dispensationalism.
Below we have listed some "denominations" and "belief systems" that are clearly outside of the mainstream Christian church, and comprise the "false church", or world of the cults. We pray that those involved in these organizations come to know the Lord Jesus as their personal Lord and Savior. The list is by no means exhaustive. Please consult your Christian bookstore for more information on cults and the false church. For convenience, we are making some books available, through Amazon.com, on cults and the false Church. We also have a section on cults and false doctrine, which provides additional information:
Cults - Additional info on cults
- Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (mormons)
- Books - Books on mormonism
- Quotes - Quotes of mormonism
- Jehovah's witnesses
- Books - Books on Jehovah's Witnesses
- scientology

- christian science
- unification church (moonies)
- unitarians
- wicca and witchcraft
- astrology
- freemasonry
- "oneness" movements that deny the Trinity (Sabellian Heresy)
- ...
- unfortunately, the list is very long ...
Please visit a Christian bookstore, or visit our online bookstore for further information on cults, the false church, and heretical belief systems. There is nothing more important than understanding the nature and character of God, and making Jesus Christ the Lord of your life.

Benediction:
Heavenly Father, we thank You and praise You for giving us this opportunity to use the Internet to spread Your Word. We pray that this service brings many souls to salvation through Your Son, Jesus Christ. Give us the strength and wisdom to spread the Gospel to a changing world. Although the world is changing, Your Word remains the same, so we ask for Your guidance in spreading the Word in the Spirit of Truth. Teach us new ways to shine the light of Your Word on a darkened world, and give us the strength we need to overcome our obstacles.
We pray for unity in the Christian community, and that we come together as one Body of Christ. Give us the wisdom we need to help unite the Church, and bring us together in matters of essential Christian doctrine. Teach us how to discuss our doctrinal differences, and still be united as the Body of Christ on matters of essential Truth. Help us to witness in Truth to those that are being deceived by the false gospels of the enemy. Help us to reach out in love to those caught up in cults and the false church, and bring them into Your light.
We praise You Father for showing us Your ways, and giving us Your Son and Your Spirit to light up our lives. We ask this in the name of Your Son Jesus. Amen.
