NEW AND GROWING BELIEVERS RESOURCES:


The Essentials of the Faith

The Foundationals to Know

Understanding Scripture purpose 
* For us to know God, and grow more in knowing who God is.
*To meet and recieve Jesus as Savior.
*To be led by God in how to live righteously and become more holy and Christlike, day by day.


God's Love for Us


My Love for Christ


Perseverence 


Trials and Testings


Counting the Cost
Counting the cost of being a follower of Christ Jesus, as your Savior and Lord. 


Persecution is expected as a believer. It might be in subtle ways, ways meant to dash your faith, or in increasing intensity or outright evil acts such as getting you in trouble for things you never said, never meant, just because you are a biblical and real Christian. It could cause you to be wrongly or unjustly fined, jailed or even blackballed with family or shuned at work or even blacklisted in your career. It can even lead to death since Satan's children are people of evil intent and hate God, Christ and His followers. But we know they might be able to harm us but they have no ability to do anything after death. If we belong to God we will be with Christ in eternity. Plus they cant do anything God doesnt allow; as we see clearly with the prophets, righteous followers, and Apostles in Scripture. Rejoice if God counts you worthy to suffer for His name sake, and if you are headed to or enter Heaven before you thought you would. God is in control. Here are some resources to boost your faith in this area here (audio) , here and here. Also see below Study on Suffering. 


Christians new nature

We are born again, our loves and priorities have shifted from the world to the things of God and eternity. Throw out everything worldly and reprioritize your life to align with the true Christian walk.

Eternal Security 

For those actually converted and who are born again, they are eternally secure and will persevere to the end and on that day be seen by all as the redeemed ones. Sometimes that day is referred to as The Day of Salvation. It is when it is revealed you are saved and indeed belong to Christ.

Understanding Sin and the world 

A study on Sin 👈

On the Holiness of God and on sin 


Suffering 
Trials, sufferings and life afflictions do not cause believers to dispair since God is with us through it, we know there is a reason and purpose for it in God's plan, and the sin scarred life or things we experience here on earth are temporary in light of eternity. 


The Church & local membership


Note, all Resources online and on the radio are a helpful supplement to not a replacement of your local Church. Your local Church is where your community is. Where you serve God and the brethren. Where you learn. You get educated nore through Sermons there, through Sunday School, mid week gathering, fellowship at homes during the week (which include bible study, food & fellowship). Church is where you also encourage, help, counsel, get discipled, get correction to help you grow. To get help in life issues, finances and other needs from among the brethren or church, where children can socialize & learn more among community besides being led by their father as spiritual leader at home day by day. It is also a place of you serve God at with thr spiritual gifts he has given you for usage there. In addition we help for widows and orphans. Our local church is basically Heaven in earth; as close as we can get to it here. And it is a temporary place that will be replaced by a eternal sin free place once we go to meet Jesus. Our life revolves in and around our local church.

Biblical Worldview Issues :

Politics & Christians

On Abortion

A biblical understanding on Racism & Lgbt 

Women topics 

Christians submit to Scripture, God's authority of the Word, His revealed truth; and we receive it, take it to ourselves, believe it, submit to it, obey it, stand firm on it, and proclaim it. We do not hold to worldly views. We throw away our views and opinions & align with the truth of Scripture.
