I.
SIX STEPS TO HEAVEN ETERNAL LIFE: A. STEP ONE: A LEVEL PLAYING FIELD: “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;” ( Romans 3:23).
B. STEP TWO: EVERYONE GETS PAID: “For the wages of sin [is] death; but the gift of God [is] eternal life through
Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Romans 6:23). C. STEP THREE: RECEIVING IS MORE THAN
BELIEVING: “But as many as
received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, [even] to them that believe on his name:” {power:
or, the right, or, privilege}. (John 1:12). D. STEP FOUR: YOU OPEN THE DOOR: “Behold, I stand at the door,
and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with
me”. (Revelation 3:20). E. STEP FIVE: YOUR PRAYER: “And the publican, standing afar off,
would not lift up so much
as [his] eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner.” (Luke 18:13) “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved”. (Romans 10:13). :F. STEP
SIX: YOUR 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. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession
is made unto salvation.” (Romans 10:9,10). Pray: Dear Jesus Christ the Son
of God. Be merciful unto me
a sinner and forgive me of all my sins. I receive you as my Lord
and Savior come in to my heart today. Amen. Thank You Jesus!. II. THE
APOSTLES’ CREED, TRADITIONAL VERSION: I believe in God the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth;
And in Jesus Christ his only Son our Lord: who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under
Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried; he descended into hell. The third day he rose from the dead; he
ascended into heaven, and sitteth at the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from thence he shall come to judge the
quick and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit the holy universal church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness
of sins, the resurrection of the body and the life everlasting. Amen. III. ASK FORGIVENESS TO THE
ONES YOU WRONGED: “I ACTED WITHOUT THINKING” I acted without thinking and behaved a bit
unwise. In looking back I feel that I should now apologize. I yielded to the moment, rushing to the wrong conclusion.
The words and deeds resulting caused unhappiness, confusion. Sometime we move in haste without examining the facts
and launch ourselves into the most unfortunate of acts. I feel that I reacted In a manner I regret. This clearly was
a moment I’d be happy to forget. But since I can’t go back in time and past mistakes ignore, I’d
like to say I’m sorry and apologize once more. — Bruce B. Wilmer. Rejoice Sunday Schedule 9:00 A.M. Fellowship and Coffee 9:15
