BIBLE READING

My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand. I and my Father are one. (John 10:27-30)

INSIGHTS


When was your name put in the Book of Life? As I said last night, the man that wrote the song, "There's a new name written down in glory, and it's mine, it's mine," meaningly he was right, but Scripturally he was wrong. Your name was not written the night you come to Christ. Jesus said, "All the Father has given to Me will come to Me. And no man can come except My Father draws him. All that comes to Me I'll give them Eternal Life and raise him up at the last day. There's none of them lost. I lose nothing, 'cause no man can pluck them out of My Father's hand Who gave them to Me." Oh, my. St. John 5:24, "He that heareth My Words and believeth on Him that sent Me has Eternal Life and shall never come to the judgment, but's passed from death unto Life." That's why this church believes in the perseverance of the saints, not in the Baptist form, not in the Presbyterian form, but in the Bible form.

"Well," you say, "now, Brother Branham, I guess once in grace always in grace." That brings a lot of disgrace. But when a man or a woman has been borned of the Spirit of God, old things have passed away, all things have become new, and he's been birthed and blessed by the Eternal God. And they can no more perish than God Himself can perish.

Do you mean to tell me that a God, a infinite God, would come down and give you Eternal Life, knowing that He was going to lose you, save you here knowing He's going to lose you there? What did He save you for? Why, He's working against Himself. If He saved you once, you are saved for all eternity. There's no demons in hell could upset you.

Now, the infinite God Who could tell the end from the beginning and then saved you here this week and knowing next year you're going to backslide and lose you, well, what's He doing a work like that for? That would be foolish; I wouldn't do that. If I made you my friend today, knowing you was going to be my enemy tomorrow, well, I wouldn't do it; I'd just let you alone. See? God makes you His servant today, because He knows and knowed before you ever come on the earth when He was making the calcium that went in your body, when He created the cosmic light that's in you, when the petroleums, and all that you're made up of, when God created it on the earth He knew every fiber of you and what you'd do.

"Well, I better walk carefully today; I might backslide and be lost tomorrow." You wasn't saved at the beginning. You might be worked up under the emotions. You might just think you're saved. You might feel like you're saved. You might believe that you're saved. You might join the church. You might be a good Baptist, Methodist, or Pentecostal; that don't have one thing to do with it. If you are ever saved, you were saved before the world ever began, when God sent Jesus in His mind to save that one who He saw was savable. Now, He's not willing that any should perish. He's not willing, but if He's God, He knowed who would and who would not. The Scripture says so. So there you are.

From Mrs Joyce Meyer USA TV Evangelist A GOOD WOMAN, MAKES A GOOD WIFE AND A GOOD WIFE BECOMES A GOOD MOTHER; A GOOD MOTHER GIVES BIRTH TO A GOOD CHILD. IF YOU WANT TO BE ONE EMULATE THESE STEPS BELLOW: 1). Never raise your voice for any reason to your husband. Its a sign of disrespect. 2). Don't expose your husband's weaknesses to your family and friends. It will bounce back at you. You are each other's keeper. 3). Never use attitudes and moods to communicate to your husband, you never know how your husband will interpret them. Defensive women don't have a happy home. 4). Never compare your husband to other men, you've no idea what their life is all about. If you attack his Ego, his Love for you will diminish. 5). Never ill treat your husband's friends because you don't like them, the person who's supposed to get rid of them is your husband. 6). Never forget that your husband married you, not your maid or anyone else. Do...

JESUS WAS NOT BORN ON DEC 25TH

JESUS WAS NOT BORN ON DEC 25TH Was Jesus born on December 25 – Christmas Day? History shows that December 25 was popularized as the date for Christmas, not because Christ was born on that day, but because it was already popular in pagan religious celebrations as the birthday of the sun. But could December 25 be the date of Christ’s birth? When was Jesus Christ born? Was Jesus born on December 25 – Christmas Day? A careful analysis of Scripture, however, clearly indicates that December 25 couldn’t be the date for Christ’s birth. Here are two primaryreasons: First, we know that shepherds were in the fields watching their flocks at the time of Jesus’ birth (Luke 2:7-8). Shepherds were not in the fields during December. According toCelebrations: The Complete Book of American Holidays, Luke’s account “suggests that Jesus may have been born in summer or early fall. Since December is cold and rainy in Judea, it is likely the shepherds would have sought shelter for their flocks ...
