    ONLY FAITH IN THE BAPTISM, DEATH AND RESURRECTION OF JESUS SAVES US FROM SIN.

    ONLY FAITH IN THE BAPTISM, DEATH AND RESURRECTION OF JESUS SAVES US FROM SIN.It is absolutely truth that before I believed in the gospel truth of the Water and the Spirit, I had a rage of desires to become righteous, and so does everyone else born on this earth desire righteousness. So I tried much not to sin or indulge myself in the things supposedly were not good before the presence of God as I thought. But all this were my own illusion, and own self providence of trying to attain righteousness, which in this case can never be possible to be attained. But as I have met the gospel truth of the Water and the Spirit, preached by God’s Servant Rev. Paul C Jong through the ebooks and audiobooks containing the righteous providence of God of the Water and the Spirit(John3:5) for us all mankind as our Salvation, I now give my thanks to the Almighty God for the word of truth of the Water and the Spirit for it has permitted me to attain the righteousness of God as my own righteousness by my faith in the gospel truth of the Water and the Spirit which constitutes Jesus’ baptism received from John the Baptist to take away all my sins, and His blood shed on the cross where He paid the wages of my sins once and for all through His precious blood. This is the only providence of God to us all mankind who are born sinful and are heading to hell because of our sins. God has provided us a single means by which we are to be saved from our sins, and how we may attain His righteousness. This is only through His own righteous Acts of His baptism, death, and resurrection, which were laid even before the foundation of the world. Now I have no hope in my deeds or works and self discipline in myself indulgence. For I have received God as my eternal hope through His own providence of His baptism, death, and resurrection as my sealed inheritance. Hallelujah!I continue to give my thanks to God and His faithful Servants for the great work of preaching the one and only Gospel truth of the Water and the Spirit to all the earth for the remission of People’s sins. Amen.Brenda Tembo, Zambia

    WHAT GOD IS SAYING TO US THROUGH THE EPISTLE TO THE EPHESIANS (I)

    Hi,This is a review for the book entitled,"What God Is Saying to Us Through the Epistle to The Ephesians" By Paul.C.JongIn the introduction to this book, the author writes about the historical background of the Epistle to the Ephesians. I will now read to you a short extract.The book of Ephesians was written by the Apostle Paul at around 62-63 AD. The Ephesian Church was where Paul had preached to the Jews and the Gentiles from the beginning and the relationship between the Saints in Ephesus and Paul began, when Paul stopped by Ephesus and preached the gospel during his second missionary journey.At that time, although Paul left Ephesus after preaching for only a short while, the work of the gospel was carried on by Priscilla and Aquila, who stayed behind.After this Paul stopped by Ephesus during his third missionary journey and ministered to the church for about three years.At the end of Paul`s third missionary journey on his way back to Jerusalem, he met the elders of the Ephesian Church at Miletus and from there they parted in tears (Acts 20:17, 36-38).This was the last meeting between Paul and the Ephesian Church recorded in the book of Acts.By documenting the historical background of the Ephesian Church, the author has allowed us to see the love and the care that the Apostle Paul had in his heart for the Saints in Ephesus.Through this Epistle, Paul makes it clear to us that God the Father planned our salvation in Jesus Christ before the foundation of the world (Eph 1:4-5, 11).According to the will of God, Jesus came to this world in the flesh of a man and fulfilled our salvation by receiving His baptism from John the Baptist in the Jordan River to take away our sins.He preached the gospel in the world for three years after His baptism and was crucified on the Cross to bear the punishment for our sins, in our place.Paul himself believed in the righteousness of God, and so in his Epistle, he always gives glory to God, confessing that his apostleship came only by `the will of God` (Eph 1:1).And as a result of receiving the remission of sins and receiving his apostleship from God, Paul, and those who follow in the faith, receive every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ. This is fulfilled as we dwell in the Church and work within the Church. (Eph 1:3)In Chapter 1 verse 4 of Ephesians, Paul tells us that God planned to make us `holy and without blame.`Although Christians try to please God by not commit sins and by doing many good works, becoming holy and without blame is not possible by any human means.In verse 5, Paul explains that we were predestined to be adopted by God according to Jesus Christ and the good will of His pleasure.This adoption that Paul speaks of, is the only way that we become holy and blameless.Although we were all born in sin and destined for hell, once we become adopted by God, we the believers in the gospel of the water and the Spirit have our hearts and consciences washed clean from all our sins. We thus become holy and without blame because we put our faith in the baptism and crucifixion of our Lord which saved us.The believers are not holy and blameless because of our deeds but rather on account of our faith in the righteous works of Christ.Jesus Christ was baptized by John the Baptist in the Jordan River to fulfil all righteousness. When John laid his hands on the head of Jesus, the sin of the world was transferred onto Him in accordance to the pattern of salvation revealed in the Old Testaments sacrificial system whereby the high priest would lay his hands on an unblemished animal to pass the sins of the Israelites onto it before shedding the sacrifices blood for the atonement of sins.(Leviticus 1:1-6, 16:21)God has founded His Church upon the faith of those who believe in His every Word, and Jesus, being the head of the Church, He leads the saints as they believe and preach His gospel of the water, blood and the Spirit. (1John 5:6-8)Therefore, if your hearts now have faith in the gospel of the water and the Spirit, then you can lead a true life of faith and receive every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places, just as God purposed for your inheritance.Even though salvation benefits us immensely, God chose us in Jesus Christ for His glory.Therefore, for us to put on God`s salvation and thank Him, this is the paramount praise that we can give to God.I pray that we all pay close attention to what God is saying to us through the Epistle to the Ephesians so that we can give God all the glory by receiving into our hearts and confessing with our mouths, the gospel of the water and the Spirit which is the perfect salvation that He fulfilled for us all.God bless you.

    SAVED BY THE WRITTEN WORD OF WATER, BLOOD AND SPIRIT OF JESUS

    I am so edified in my Spirit through my faith in the gospel truth of the water, blood and the Spirit by reading Rev. Paul C. Jong’s book called, DO YOU KNOW THE INTENTION OF THE AUTHOR OF THE BOOK OF HEBREWS?Through reading this book, I have come to understand that God will truly never change, and He speaks to us only through His written word of truth. It says in Hebrews Chapter 1, that God’s word of salvation was testified to the prophets and our ancestors at Various times and in various Ways in the time past. It is none other than this very true Word of salvation that clearly testifies that Jesus Christ is the savior of mankind, who came as the eternal Lamb of sacrifice which was foretold as the unblemished sacrificial animal offered by the high priest Aaron and His descendants who stood as the representatives of the people of Isreal to transfer all their sins onto its body by laying on of hands on its head as the Godly ordained method. Then the animal was killed to atone or received judgement on behalf of the Isrealites by been slaughtered to death or was to be sent into the wilderness, where it roamed around until reached its death, thus rendering the Isrealites forgiveness of Sin by its blood yearly(Leviticus 16:29). As such this was the shadow pointing out for the reality to come even Jesus Christ. Thus, In similar vain, Jesus Christ has given the complete forgiveness of sins to all mankind by receiving His baptism from John the Baptist the last high priest on earth, who passed all the sins of world by the very method of laying on of his hands onto Jesus Christ’s head on his baptism, then Jesus accepted all the sins of the world on his baptism as the eternal Lamb of Sacrifice, then, was thereby crucified on the cross to pay for all the wages of our sins by the shedding of His precious blood, then He resurrected on the third day to give the complete newness of life to everyone who believes in this true written word of God testified in both in the time past to our ancestors at various times and in various Ways and in the New Testaments as our fulfilled promised covenant by God(Acts3:24-26). Hallelujah!Brenda Tembo, Zambia

    Having Started from the Spirit are We Now Justified by the Law?

    This Book "From physical circumcision to the Doctrine of Repentance" revealed a great number of spiritual things into my life of faith:truly we are people who can`t help our Lord in fulfilling our salvation that He has already perfectly completed,our Lord has apart from human deeds saved us and granted us the remission of sin.By faith without the deeds of the law God the Father in Christ has given us the blessing of promise has it was with Abraham our father of faith;just like Abraham believed God`s word apart from deeds of the flesh before circumcision and received God`s blessings and His righteousness so have we who have believed in the word of righteousness fulfilled by Christ when he received our sins by the reception of His Baptism from John and His death as He hung there on the Cross for our curses received the blessing of the promise made to Abraham,God has fulfilled in Christ the promise of saving us from our sins once for all that we may enter the spiritual Canaan as His people sealed with the presence of the Holy Spirit.Truly today`s Christians are lost in the doctrine of prayers of repentance as a way to deal with their daily sins committed;I too believed that my sins could be remitted only if I offered such prayers,I grew up in such a doctrine and was faithful to it without realizing how fallacious it was not until I met the truth of God that Christ saved me from all my lifetime of sin all by Himself without consulting me for anything in that there is no lacking in His ability as God to save me from sin.The faith that adds human works to God`s work of redemption is a wrong faith made by men who failed to grasp the knowledge of the gospel of the water and the Spirit;just like the Galatian believers who had so easily been removed from the faith in the gospel of the water and the Spirit,countless so called believers of Jesus in today`s era have been drowned into the fallacious beliefs that prayers of repentance, physical circumcision and observing the Sabbath literally could help them become approved before God as they go on living and if they offer prayers of repentance faithfully and emotionally,this doctrine has blinded many from the truth and led them to spiritual death such that it`s hard to bring them back to life as they can`t even realise how wrong the faith they have placed in prayers of repentance is,they are too arrogant to even let go of it and rather speak ill of the gospel of water and the Spirit which would bring them from their self engrossed deception if only they can accept it into their hearts and forsake their legalistic faiths.Jesus Christ has saved us wholly from all our sins by Baptism and Bloodshed and that is enough to cleanse from all our sins of the past,present and the future;Jesus has saved us in the present perfect tense and the not the present progressive tense,the law having been given for us to know our sins,once we admit our sinfulness before God we come to enjoy His Grace of salvation fulfilled by His righteous acts of Baptism,Bloodshed and Resurrection.People live in emptiness because they haven`t found the truth that would get rid of sin from their hearts once for all;the confusion and emptiness in people`s hearts is as a result of the presence of sins intact in their hearts,until people receive the remission of sins they can never find satisfaction in the pleasures or other things of this world such as money,fame,power,etc.We must all come to embrace the truth of the gospel of the water and the Spirit to enjoy the true peace of redemption in our hearts;without trying to add anything in attaining salvation we just have to bend our will to the will of God and believe in His true word of righteousness on how He has saved us from sin by water and blood.Until we get rid of our sins and escape from legalistic faith we can`t serve God as the true servants God whose hearts are set to do God`s work but we will be driven by our fleshly desires,we must serve God`s work of righteousness without trying to please men or for our selfish gain;the doctrines of men can not surpass the gospel we have received which was given by the revelation of Jesus Christ and came not from man.Truly God has allowed His word of truth to dawn in my heart and has brought all brightness and no trace of sin can be found within me though I am weak and insufficient,the grace of God is sufficient and I need not to add my own works to His work of redemption which He Himself accomplished perfectly and makes me truly born again by my faith in it.Hallelujah
