You MUST be born again [John 3:7]

Jesus said He is the ONLY Savior:

No man comes to the Father but by Me [John 14:6]

WHOEVER drinks of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life [John 4:14]

WHOEVER WILL,

let him take the Water of Life freely [Revelation 22:17]

The Bible Stands

The Bible stands like a rock undaunted
Mid the raging storms of time;
It's pages burn with the truth eternal,
And they glow with a light sublime.

The Bible stands every test we give It,
For Its Author is divine;
By grace alone I expect to live It,
And to prove It and make It mine!

The Bible stands like a mountain towering
Far above the works of men;
Its truth by none ever was refuted,
And destroy it they never can!

The Bible stands though the hills may tumble
It will firmly stand when the Earth shall crumble
I will plant my feet on Its firm foundation
For the Bible stands.

I was saved, by the grace of God, as a teenager, through reading the Bible. I was actually reading and searching out certain topics in the Bible to justify some things I wanted to do. As I read the Bible it did not approve what I wanted to do, but rather condemned me for my sins and need of salvation. My first acquaintance with the Bible was at the age of five, when my mother (who at the time was not saved) read much of the New Testament to me and my younger brother as we lay on a straw tick "mattress" on a camp bunk in the lumber woods. She was the camp cook and my father worked with the rest of the crew cutting and hauling logs and pulp-wood. As I lay on that bunk listening to my mother read I thoroughly understood what she was reading. It was very real to me that I was a sinner deserving the furnace of fire and that place of wailing and gnashing of teeth [MAT 13:41, 42]. I was not saved, however, until my later teen years. The one question I had for a long time before I was saved was "How can the death of Christ pay for MY sins?" I did not question the history of the Bible —I believed that the events recorded there really happened. I had no questions about Jesus being the Son of God as He claimed. I did not question His virgin birth, miracles, death, bodily resurrection and ascension to Heaven. What I could not believe and understand was how His sacrificial death on the cross could take care of MY SINS —I was the one who sinned against my Creator. Then one night alone in my bedroom I told the Lord that I didn't understand the how but I told Him that I would take Him at His word—I BELIEVED His promise and by His unmerited grace I was saved. Even today I cannot understand how or why He should or could show mercy to a sinner such as I. I have read the theologians and philosophers answers without any help in that understanding. All I know is that I a wicked HELL BOUND and HELL DESERVING SINNER, DEAD in sins, by the grace of God alone was made His child. Please take time to read Ephesians 2:1-10 (for the passage CLICK on the following URL: http://www.christianbeliefs.org/bible/ephesians2-1-10.html ).

My desire through the years since my salvation has been to continue my study of God's Word and to pass it on to others that the Holy Spirit might use it to draw, whom the Father would, to come to know Jesus Christ as their Savior and grow in His grace.

My places of service have been small and somewhat remote but I have striven to be true to my Lord and His Word in whatever I have done. I am a Fundamentalist, however, I am aware that what is today known as "Fundamentalism" is a gross misrepresentation of historic Fundamentalism. The same is true of the word Christian. The vast majority of those who claim that precious name show by their doctrine and conduct that they know nothing of the saving grace of God [Please read MAT 7:13, 14, 21-23]. I fear that a very large number, even in our Fundamentalist churches, have never experienced the "new birth." "Religion" may be popular but we see few walking in that HOLINESS, WITHOUT WHICH NO MAN SHALL SEE THE LORD [HEB 12:14]. We urge every reader to make sure that you have passed from death to life.
