Troop Church: Believe in Christ

Place : Karkala, Karnataka

Members : 10

Testimony : All the members during the 2 hours service were filled with the light of God, like never before. After 11 AM, all the troop members started walking in Karkala for 35 kms in anointing of Lord and covered in the area with the blood of the Lamb. They were speaking in tongues all the time. Things ended only at 6.30 pm. Bro. Shiva Kumar a municipal officer is 88 kgs and can hardly walk for 1 km. But in the anointing of the lord, he walked 35 kms. He is not able to believe how that happened. He confessed that he never felt a bit tired during the walk. 10 million Praises and Thanks to God of wonders!

Bro. Shivakumar

Bro. Shiva Kumar is a municipal officer in Karnataka. He was daily making lots of money in bribery and enjoyed his life  in drinking and other worldly habits. He always used to scold his children and wife a lot. God heard his wife’s prayers. Bro. Shivakumar after attending  Shekinas , God transformed his life. Today he is loved by  his family and performing his duty without accepting bribes. Many of his higher officials hated him after he accepted Jesus, and  stopped taking bribes.. They transferred him for this reason. But he stood for the Lord. Lord Jesus promised him with a verse 2 Cor 10:12 which boosted his faith. Today Lord made him a testimony for all the colleagues in the office.  Praise the lord!. Righteous will be bold as a lion – Proverbs 28.1

Be Formed and Form is a 5 day short term course. This training is a challenge to the present Church. Because our Lord Jesus Christ (Head of the Church) wants the Church to be transformed according to Ephe 5:26,27. To make her holy, (cleansing her by the washing with water through the word), and to present her himself as a radiant Church. Today the Church is ignorant about the will of our Lord Jesus Christ. By this BFF training , the Church awakes and arises to shine in the world.

God did mighty things through people through this BFF training. All were touched and became mighty warriors in the Lord. One of them Abhi  mentioned that she was eagerly waiting to listen to His voice and was in lot of confusion. During the meeting God gave her the works she has to do for the life, cleared the confusions and spoke to her audibly. She is very happy now.

Kepha always used to get angry before attending the BFF. When her mother asked her join BFF course, she refused. But the course changed her life. Now she is filled with joy and love. She is so happy that she heard His voice.

TEACHING: Truth about baptism –  CSI baptism, “it is a counterfeit currency”, thus says the Lord. Can the CSI believers escape hell fire?

What happens when a blind leads a blind? (Luke 6:39).   

LET US TAKE A PLUNGE NOW!

 1). WHO SAID BAPTISM IS NEEDED AND WHY?

 1 (1) Baptism is mandated by Jesus – One should be born of water and Spirit alone can enter the Kingdom of Heaven.

     As Jesus is the bridegroom and we are His brides, we must follow what the bridegroom wants. Otherwise we would not be chosen as bride by Jesus and we would be left behind. That means those who fail to take baptism and the ones who undergo fake baptism would become bride for satan, the deceiver. Baptism is the first requirement to be fulfilled, for anyone to become His bride.

 

 First requirement is that one has to be born in water.

        John 3:5  Jesus answered, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.

Then one has to be born in spirit:

     Acts 2:38 Then Peter said to them, “Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

THE MANDATE FROM JESUS – SALVATION THROUGH BAPTISM

1(2) BAPTISM AVOIDS HELL: Jesus made it clear, without baptism we would go to hell

     Mark 16:16 He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned.

 

MARK 16:16 EXPLAINED : ARE YOU A BELIEVER IN CHRIST AS PER MARK 16:16?

1 (3) DEFINITION OF A BELIEVER: A believer is one who:

1. a) has accepted Jesus as the Son of God and

2. b) believes that Jesus died and rose for our sins and rose from the dead AND

3. c) has taken baptism (Mark 16:16). That means, without baptism one is not considered a believer in Christ.

 

Additional references:

     Act 8:36 Now as they went down the road, they came to some water. And the eunuch said, “See, here is water. What hinders me from being baptized?” 37 Then Philip said, “If you believe with all your heart, you may.” And he answered and said, “I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.”

     Romans 10:9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 

MARK 16:16 FURTHER EXPLAINED – BECOME A BELIEVER TO BECOME HIS CHILD

 1 (4) Without being a believer one cannot receive the status as a child of Jesus.

     John 1:12 But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name:

THE DECISION POINT: The decision to the first point of the debate is that it was Jesus who said baptism is mandatory and the reason is only those who are genuinely baptised are His children. Only His children can inherit the Kingdom of Heaven. Those who reject the genuine baptism would land up in Hell, according to Jesus. This is the full impact of the words in Mark 16:16, “He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned”

From the above, the wise would understand that baptism is extremely vital to enter into covenant life with Jesus.
