Why Did My Savior Come to Earth? By: Jim Crews One of the greatest questions we can have answered for us when we study the Bible is the question of why Jesus left Heaven to come to the Earth. Why did He leave His heavenly home to come here? Jesus came to the Earth to give men an opportunity to have their sins forgiven. Mankind needed a Savior because of sin. What is sin? Sin is disobedience to God. I John 3: 4 All unrighteousness is sin. I John 5: 17 Who has sinned? Every single human being on the planet has sinned. Romans 3: 23 Every person who can tell right from wrong commits sin. 1 John 1:6-10 Sin separates us from fellowship with God. Sin is spiritual death. Isaiah 59: 2 Romans 6: 23 Where did sin come from? The answer is given to us in Genesis. God created Adam and Eve. He put them in the garden of Eden and gave them everything they needed. He also gave them some commands to obey. Genesis 2:15-17 God clearly told them what to do and what not to do. They could eat of anything in the Garden they chose with one exception. They were commanded not to eat of the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. What happened? Gen. 3:1-6 It was through the disobedience of Adam and Eve that sin entered into the world. Romans 5:12 God is all seeing, all knowing, all powerful and eternal. He already had a plan to take care of man's sin. He had already planned to send His Son to the earth to save mankind from their sins. Matthew 1: 21 Jesus told Zacchaeus that He came to Earth to find and save sinners. Luke 19: 10 When He came to Earth, all of humanity was lost in their sins. Romans 5: 6 - 8 He came to bring us back into fellowship with God. II Corinthians 5: 20-21 Ephesians 2: 16 Jesus came to earth to purchase His church. The church was planned before God created the world. I Peter 1: 18 - 20 Ephesians 3: 10 - 11 The Church was bought and paid for with the Blood of the Son. Acts 20: 28 The Church was founded and built by the Son. Matthew 16: 17-18 It was never in God’s plan to have hundreds of different denominations. It is not a part of His plan to have any denominations. His plan was always to have just one church, made up of all His obedient children. In fact, the Bible teaches unity, not division. 1 Corinthians 1:10-13 Ephesians 4:3-6 Christ is the only head of the one church He promised to build. It is only in His church that we are able to be saved from our sins. Ephesians 5:23 Jesus came into the world to die for our sins and to establish His church. He died, was buried, then arose on the third day as prophesied in the Old Testament. If we are to be saved, we must believe this. Hebrews 11: 6 John 3: 16 John 8: 24 Once we have faith, we must obey the commandments He gave to us. John 3: 36 Hebrews 5: 9 What did He command? We must repent of our past sins. Luke 13: 3 Acts 17:30 We must confess our faith in Him as the Messiah, the Son of God, in a public manner. Matthew 10: 32 - 33 Romans 10: 9 - 10 We must be immersed in water to have our past sins washed away. Mark 16: 16 Acts 22: 16 This saves us. I Peter 3: 21 In order to enter into the Kingdom He came to establish, we must be born again. How is one born again? John 3: 3 - 5 We must be born of water and the Spirit. How does that happen? Acts 2: 38 Romans 6: 3 - 4 Colossians 2: 11 - 13 Titus 3: 4 - 7 We put on Christ when we submit to His commands. Galatians 3: 27 When we are baptized in a Scripturally authorized manner, we are added by Him to the church. We are born again. Acts 2: 42 Looks like salvation and entrance to the kingdom are the same thing. That means in order for one to be saved, one has to be a member of the Lord’s Church, the one He founded, and the one you can read about in the New Testament. Romans 16: 16 There is no other way. There is no other path to salvation. Matthew 7: 13 - 14 Members of the Body of Christ are prepared to study with you and help guide you through the Scriptures so you can see what you must do if you are to be saved. Won’t you find one today. Repent, confess, be immersed in water, and live faithfully unto death serving Him. Come, while there’s still time.

It was my sermon this morning.......:)

There’s Water in God’s Plan By: Jim Crews Water has always been a part of God’s plan of salvation. In the time before the Flood, God chose to use water as the means of destroying a sin-cursed world. Genesis 6: 17 I'm sure there were many other means at His disposal, but God chose to send a great flood upon the earth, by which he removed the corruption, and saved Noah and his family. I Peter 3:20 Water was shown to be a dividing line between the filthy and the cleansed. Why did God choose to do it this way? That’s His business, not mine. I don’t question God. When God delivered the children of Israel from Egyptian bondage, he led them to the Red Sea. This was not the regular route out of Egypt. It would have been closer to go to the north, where there was a dry-land route. But God led them to the sea, and made for them a path between walls of water. They were immersed in cloud and sea. I Corinthians 10:1-2 When Pharaoh's army tried to follow them, the sea crashed back in on them and destroyed them. Water was shown to be a dividing line between bondage and freedom. Why did God choose to do it this way? That’s His business, not mine. I don’t question God. When Naaman, captain of the Syrian army, came to God's prophet for healing of his leprosy, he was told to wash in the Jordan, seven times. II Kings 5:10 It does seem a strange requirement. Naaman thought it was and was angered by it. II Kings 5: 11 - 12 He reasoned that his home-land rivers were better than the Jordan. They were, if water was all that was needed. But of course water was only the medium chosen by God for this miracle. When Naaman submitted to God's command, and dipped seven times in the Jordan, he was healed of his leprosy. Some may ask if there was something in the water that contributed to this healing. The answer, of course, is yes. Naaman was in the water, where God told him to be. The healing was by God's power, but it was applied only to an obedient subject. Water became the dividing line between sickness and health. Why did God choose to do it this way? That’s His business, not mine. I don’t question God. When Jesus healed the man born blind he used water as the dividing line between blindness and sight. John 9: 1 John 9: 6 - 7 He anointed the man's eyes with clay and told him to go wash in Siloam’s pool. I do not know why He did it this way. I only know that the man was blind until he did what the Lord told him to do. When he washed, he could see. God, with divine power, cleansed the world, freed Israel, healed the leper, and gave sight to the blind. In all these manifestations of His power He chose to use water. He told the subjects to use that water as He directed. He withheld the blessing until their faith was demonstrated by their obedience. I do not know why. It has never occurred to me to question God. It is hard for me to understand why people who claim to have faith in God, will question His command to be immersed in water to have their sins forgiven and washed away. Mark 16: 16 Acts 2:38 Acts 22:16 Seeing all of His examples throughout the Bible, is it so strange that God would choose to use water as the dividing line between the old life of sin, and the new Christian life? Romans 6:3-4 The more puzzling question is how someone who claims to be a believer, could "reject the counsel of God against himself? Luke 7:30 There are millions of people in the world today who refuse to be immersed in water to have their sins washed away, receiving the promised gift of the Holy Spirit. Water is the dividing line in God’s Plan for the redemption of sinful humanity. Why did God choose to do it this way? That’s His business. I don’t question God, I obey Him. Do you want to be saved? The Lord told you how. Luke 13: 3 Matthew 10: 32 - 33 Mark 16: 16 Revelation 2: 10 Why not submit to HIS will, instead of being stubborn and burning? Why not plunge into the waters of baptism and be cleansed and made whole?

Oilers fell behind 24-0 at the half......They battled back to make it 24-14 at one point......played a great second half.....the defense is showing improvements every week......offense is starting to come around........

Never thought those words would EVER come out of my thought process........
