GOD In The beginning GOD created the Heavens and Earth. GENESIS 1:1-10 The following verses of Genesis 1, tell of all livings things created on the earth and all living things in the Sea. Genesis 1 : (4004 BC) John 1: 1-5 God Foretold ( Predicated a Savior For Mankind ) A child is born and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The Mighty One, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace ISAIAH 9: 6-7 SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST Genealogy of JESUS CHRIST, And she ( MARY ) shall bring forth a son, and thou call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins. MATTHEW 1:21-22 For unto you is born this day in the city of DAVID a Savior who is CHRIST The LORD. LUKE 2:11 JESUS, was Baptized of John in Jor dan. And straightway coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him: And there came a voice from heaven, saying, Thou art my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. MARK 1:9-11 Isaiah 53 I Tim. 2:5 Matt. 27:32-28:10 ( He appeared to his disciples ) And JESUS came and spoke unto them, saying ALL POWER IS GIVEN UNTO ME IN HEAVEN AND IN EARTH. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, BAPTIZING them in the name of the Father. And of the SON, and of the HOLY GHOST: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you : and Lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen MATTHEW 28 : BIBLE All scripture is given by inspiration of GOD, and is profitable for doctoring, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: II TIMOTHY 3: 16 God who at sundry times and divers manners spoke in times past unto the father by prophets, hath in these last days spoken unto us by his SON, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; HEBREWS 1: 1-2 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you let him be accursed. As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preaches any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed. GALATIANS 1:8-9 Deut. 21:18-23 Joshua 6:17-18 and 7:1 and 7:12 and 7:15 Rom. 9:3 I Cor. 12:3 Gal. 3:10-13 I John 5:13 Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. II TIMOTHY 2:15 Heaven and Earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.

And he ordained twelve that they should be with him, and that he might send them forth to preach, And to have power to heal sicknesses, and to cast out devils: And Simon he surname Peter, James, the son of Zebe-dee, and John, Andrew, Phillip Bartholomew, Matthew, James, the son of Alphae us, And Thad-dae us, and Simon, And Judas Iscariot, which also betrayed him: and they went into an house. MARK 3 : 13-19

2 CHURCH (You should know that the CHURCH is built by JESUS CHRIST ) When Jesus came into the coasts of Caes-A-ra a Phi-lip-pi, he ask his disciples saying, Whom do men say that I, the Son of man am? And they said, Some Say that thou art John the Baptist: some, E-li -as; and others, Jer-e-mi as, or one of the prophets. He saith unto them, But Whom say ye that I am? And Simon Peter answered and said, thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-jo na: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven. And I say also unto thee, that thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my Church: and the Gates of hell shall not prevail against it. MATTHEW 16 ; ( You should know the Church was purchased by the blood of CHRIST. ) Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood. ACTS 20 : 28 Why? Rom. 3:23 Rom. 6:23 ( The CHURCH is built on JESUS CHRIST as the only Foundation ) And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone; In whom all the building fitly framed together growth unto an holy temple in the Lord: In whom ye also are building together for an habitation of God through the Spirit. EPHESIANS 2:20-25 According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another builder thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth unto an thereupon For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ. I CORINTHIANS 3:10-11 no other gospel Gal. 1:8-9 II John 1:4-11 ( One the body of CHRIST ) And he is before all things, and by him all things consist. And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence. For it pleased the Father, that in him should all fullness dwell ; COLOSSIANS 1: And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all Things to the church. Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all. EPHESIANS 1 ; ( In Bible Times The Name of The CHURCH was called, the same as to day ) Salute one another with an holy kiss. The CHURCHES of CHRIST salute you. ROMANS 16:16 ( The CHURCH is called the KINGDOM. ) Pg 2 Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into The Kingdom of his dear Son: In whom we have redemption through his blood, iven the forgiveness of sins: COLOSSIANS 1 : I Tim. 2:5

3 CHURCH UNITY ( YOU CAN BE A MEMBR of THIS CHURCH! By Doing The Same As the Saints Did Over 1900 Years Ago. ) Platform of The NEW TESTAMENT CHURCH, Are The Seven Planks: BODY, SPIRIT, HOPE, LORD, FAITH, BAPTISM, GOD, and FATHER of ALL CHURCH UNITY UNDENOMINATIONAL! Neither Pray I, For These alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word; That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. JOHN 17:20-21 Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that we all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you : but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment. I CORINTHIANS 1:10-21 BODY There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope, of your calling; One Lord, one faith, one baptism, One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, all in you all. EPHESIANS 4:4-6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. ROMANS 6:6 Acts 2:47 I Cor. 12:12-31 I BESEECH you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. ROMANS 12:1 Luke 17:10 Gal. 2:20 I John 1:5-7 SPIRIT But God, hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searches all things, yea, the deep things of God. I CORINTHANS 2 :1-16 II Tim. 3:16 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. And they that are Christ s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the spirit. GALATIONS 5:22-25 HOPE But I, would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as other which have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus, died and rose again even so them also which sleep in Jesus, will God bring with him. For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words. I Thessalonians 4:13-18 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you. I PETER 1:3-4 John 14:1 II Cor. 11:1-4 & Rev. 21:9-11 Matt. 7:21-23 Pg 3

4 LORD For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God. So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God. Romans 14:11-12 For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, ( as there be gods many, and lords many,) But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him. I CORINTHIANS 8:5-6 Pg 4 FAITH So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. ROMANS 10:17 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. HEBREWS 11:1 But Without faith it is impossible to please him; for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him HEBREWS 11:6 But wilt know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead? JAMES 2:20 Ye see them how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only. JAMES 2 : 24 Eph. 2:8 SALVATION Neither is there salvation in any other; for there is none other name under heaven given among men where by we must be saved. ACTS 4:12 ; For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and to the Greek. Romans 1:16 II Thess. 1:7-9 I Cor. 15:1-4 Rom. 6:1-6 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: EPHESIANS 6:17 For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men. TITUS 2:11 How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him. HEBREWS 2:3 CONFESSION 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. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. ROMANS 10:9-10 BAPTISM Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: MATTHEW 28:18-20 Therefore let all the house of Israel, know assuredly, that God hath made that Same Jesus, Whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ. Now when heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter, and the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do? Then Peter, said unto them, Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ, for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. For the promise is unto you and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God, shall call.. And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation. Then they that gladly received his word were Baptized: and the same day there were added unto them three thousand souls. And they continued steadfast in the Apostles doctrine and fellowship, and breaking of bread and in prayers. And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and signs were done by the apostles. And all that believed were together, and had all things common; and sold their possessions and goods parted them to all men, as every man had need. And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart, Praising God, And having favor with all the people. And the Lord, added to the church daily such as should be saved. ACTS 2:36-47

5 Then Philip opened his mouth and began at the same scripture, and preached unto him Jesus. And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and eunuch said, see, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized? And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. And he commanded the chariot to stand still: And they went down both into water, both Philip, and the eunuch; and he baptized him. And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no more: and he went on his way rejoicing. ACTS 8:35-39 Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead. COLOSSIANS 2:12 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk In newness of life. ROMANS 6: 3-4 GRACE For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: EPHESIANS 2;8 For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. JOHN 1:17 For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the thanksgiving of mercy redound to the glory of God. II CORINTHIANS 4:15 But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. A-men. II PETER 3:18 (the whole chapter) SOUL And the Lord God, formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life and man became living Soul. GENESIS 2:7 Incline your ear, and come unto me: hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David. ISAIAH 55:3 Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of GOD: the powers that be are ordained by God. ROMANS 13:1 Psalms 49 Matt:16:24-27 Phil. 3:1-11 KINGDOM Jesus answered, Verily, Verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God. JOHN 3:5 Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son: COLOSSIANS 1:13 Then cometh the END, when He shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power. I CORINTHIANS 15:24 Matt. 26:27-29 Matt. 19:19-20 Rev. 21:9-11 WAY JESUS saith unto him, I am the Way, the Truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. JOHN 14:6 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: MATTHEW 7:13 Because straight is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto Life, and few there be that find it. MATTHEW 7: 14 Pg 5

6 FALSE PROPHETS Beware of false prophets, whitch come to you in sheep s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. MATTHEW 7:15 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: REVELATION 22:18. And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book. REVELATION 22:19 Gal. 1:6-10 Personal Comments : By the Love and Grace of God are we born and given Life and a Soul, our soul will never die. God wants your Soul clean and free of sin. When this earthly Body dies our soul s destiny is sealed. If at time of death you have lived a Christian life, YOU WILL LIVE IN HEAVEN WITH GOD the FATHER after judgment. At judgment if you lived a sinful life your soul will be condemned to live in hell (Gehenna ) with Satan, the devil and his angels in a lake of fire and brimstone forever and ever. There is no second chance for salvation, One must be forgiven of sin before death. And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels, In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power. II THESSALONIANS 1:7-9 Jesus. THE and ONLY CHURCH that carries his name is The CHURCH of CHRIST Rom. 16:16, the One he built. JESUS told his Apostles to be watchful for false prophets and wolves would try to come into the Church and teach a false gospel other than the gospel of Christ You should know that a child of God: Can be lost. I Cor. 9;27 ; 10:12 ; Gal. 5:4 ; Heb. 3:12-19 Rev. 3:1-5 But is given a law of pardon. Acts 8;22 ; James 5:16 Is constantly cleansed by the blood of Christ as he walks in the light of God. I Pet. 2:9-10 ; I John 1:5-10 The Church began A. D. 33 at Jerusalem on Pentecost Acts Ch. 2: Today the church still practices and teaches the same true religion as the first Christian saints did at Pentecost. History reveals that churches with human creeds and doctrines have been established later. Some are the following: TIME PLACE FOUNDER CHURCH 606 A. D. Rome Boniface III Roman Catholic 1520 Germany Martin Luther Lutheran 1534 England Henry VIII Episcopalian 1536 Switzerland John Calvin Presbyterian 1550 England Robert Browne Congregational 1607 Holland John Smythe Baptist 1739 England John Wesley Methodist 1830 America Joseph Smith Latter Day Saints ( Mormon ) 1830 America William Miller Adventist 1866 America Mary Bake Eddy Christian Scientist 1872 America Charles T. Russell Jehovah s Witnesses AND OTHERS Pg 6

7 After reading this S and carefully studying these facts we hope and pray if you are not already a child of God you will consider becoming just a New Testament Christian. Rev. 22:17 This is mine and Venita Jo s, prayer. All scriptures from the King James Version.
