Bearing Fruit 12 months a year



Jesus Christ called us to bear good fruit, to bear fruit that will give glory to God our Father. If we are IN CHRIST, born again and following Jesus we will bear good fruit 12 months a year, 365 days a year, without fail. It does not matter what the season is, the economy does not affect us, our circumstances do not affect us because those who are planted by Jesus, are planted next to the STREAM OF THE RIVER OF LIFE that FLOWS FROM THE THRONE OF GOD, they bear fruit twelve months a year and they glorify God their Father.
Jesus said that every branch in Him that does not bear good fruit will get cut off and burned. He said that every tree that does not bear good fruit will get cut off and the ax is already lying at the root of the trees. Many who profess to be children of God are not bearing good fruit, they are bad trees and they will get cut off.
Every branch that bears good fruit will be pruned so that it can bear more fruit, but it will bear fruit if it is IN CHRIST. That is our purpose, it is to bear good fruit. If we do not bear good fruit we will certainly get cut off.
Are we bearing good fruit? Are we thereby proving to be children of God and thereby bringing glory to our Father EVERY DAY, regardless of circumstances? Are we GOOD TREES, planted by the Master?

May Jesus bless you.

Why you MUST be BAPTIZED after REPENTING


God JUSTIFIES those who OBEY Him. He takes away the guilt of their sin and He brings them into His presence, into His kingdom. Jesus Christ came to give us the example and the Words of God, the Words of Eternal life.
Jesus Himself was baptized in water. When He came to John the Baptist to be baptized John, who knew who He was, at first did not want to baptize Him. (Matthew 3:14,15) He said:”Lord, I have need to be baptized by You and now You come to me to be baptized.” But Jesus insisted and said:”Allow it TO FULFILL ALL RIGHTEOUSNESS.”
To be baptized in water AFTER REPENTANCE is an INSTRUCTION from God, a COMMAND. If we do not OBEY the words of Jesus, which are the WORDS OF GOD, and are baptized in water for the washing off of our sin AFTER REPENTANCE then we will not have eternal life, we will not be justified. We have to FULFILL ALL RIGHTEOUSNESS to be JUSTIFIED by God.
Have you obeyed the words of God? Have you REPENTED and been BAPTIZED IN WATER? Or are you REBELLING against God? Are you in DISOBEDIENCE because then you will perish. Obey Jesus and LIVE! If you do not OBEY His words YOU WILL PERISH.

May Jesus bless you.

Repent AND be Baptized OR YOU WILL PERISH

Jesus Christ commanded that all those who follow Him must REPENT and BE BAPTIZED in water. He commanded the disciples to preach the gospel and all those who HAVE BELIEVED and HAVE BEEN BAPTIZED will be saved but those who have not believed will be condemned. (Mark 16:16)
If you want eternal life you have to OBEY Jesus Christ. You HAVE TO REPENT and you HAVE TO be BAPTIZED IN WATER.
I was baptized at the age of five on my own insistence. The church that my parents attended at the time refused to baptize me, they said I was too young. But I said to the pastor:”If you refuse to baptize me and I die and I end up in hell, then you will be to blame.” So they baptized me.
There will be NO EXCUSE for anybody who disobeys Jesus Christ. If you want eternal life you have to OBEY Jesus Christ. He said:”If you love me, OBEY My commands, DO WHAT I SAY.” If you want eternal life you have to REPENT, STOP SINNING, be BAPTIZED IN WATER, FOLLOW and OBEY Jesus Christ, ASK Him for the Holy Spirit to be with you, to GUIDE you and to TEACH you, but you have to FOLLOW Him and OBEY Him.
If you believe in Jesus Christ you will OBEY Him and DO what He commanded us to do, or else YOU WILL PERISH.

May Jesus bless you.

Be baptized

When Jesus Christ and His disciples preached the gospel of salvation ALL those who believed were IMMEDIATELY BAPTIZED IN WATER in obedience to Jesus. Jesus also commanded His disciples
to go into all the world and preach the gospel to all nations to baptize them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Ghost and to teach them all those things that He had commanded them. (Matthew 28:18-20)

IF YOU REALLY BELIEVE IN JESUS CHRIST the FIRST THING that you will do after you have believed is YOU WILL BE BAPTIZED IN WATER. You will not delay.


May Jesus bless you.
