DID YOU KNOW THAT THE WORD, "BAPTISM" LITERALLY MEANS, 'TO DIP, IMMERSE OR PLUNGE' IT NEVER MEANT SPRINKLE OR POUR WOULD BE AN ACCEPTABLE ALTERNATIVE.

LAST WEEK, IT WAS 'HE HAS RISEN'. THIS WEEK, IT SHOULD BE, 'WHAT HAVE YOU CHANGED THIS WEEK AS A RESULT?'

From ProclaimingTheGospel.org Asking Questions is an Effective Way of Witnessing to Catholics Many of the 1.3 billion Catholics were born into their religion and have never examined their faith through the lens of Scripture. From an early age they are taught that salvation comes through their church, the priests, the sacraments and their good works. Roman Catholicism is often called the plus religion because of what it has added to the pure Gospel of grace. Catholic salvation is never secure in this life. They rely on Jesus plus Mary, faith plus works, grace plus merit, Scripture plus tradition and the blood of Jesus plus purgatory. Catholics do not know that any addition to the Gospel is a denial of the sufficiency of the Lord Jesus Christ (Heb. 7:25). Any addition to the Gospel also nullifies the saving grace of God, which is the only means by which God saves sinners (Romans 11:6). Catholics, who are victims of this deception, need to be evangelized with the true Gospel of grace. As we witness to Catholics we must persevere with patience to untangle the sticky web of religious indoctrination and traditions that hold them captive (Col. 2:8). We must follow the instructions of Paul and "not be quarrelsome but kind to everyone, able to teach, patiently enduring evil, and correcting opponents with gentleness." We must pray for God to "grant them repentance leading to a knowledge of the truth," that they may come to their senses and escape from the snare of the devil, who holds them captive to do his will (2 Tim. 2:24-26). The three most important biblical principles to remember as you witness to Catholics: 1) Establish Scripture as the supreme authority for truth (2 Tim. 3:16). We must always test the uninspired words of men with the inspired Word of God which is our only infallible source for truth. 2) Proclaim the Lord Jesus as the all-sufficient Savior (John 19:30; Heb. 7:25; Acts 4:12). We must show that His Work of redemption is finished, perfect and all-sufficient to save sinners completely and forever. 3) Share the promise of the Gospel which is eternal life (1 John 5:13; 1 Pet. 1:3-5). Catholics only have conditional life. Following are some other important biblical principles as you witness to Catholics: Declare God is our Holy Creator require us to be perfect as He is perfect (Gen. 1:1; Mat. 5:48) Share that every one is a sinner and condemned under God's righteous judgment (Rom. 3:10-18; Heb. 9:27; Rev. 20:14). Proclaim Jesus and His Word as the most trustworthy source for truth (John 14:6; 17:17; 18:37). Show that the Scriptures are sufficient for knowing and understanding how to be saved (2 Tim. 3:15). Define the Gospel and its divine power to save (Romans 1:16; 1 Cor. 15:1-4; Eph. 2:1-10). Warn of the fatal consequences for anyone who teaches a different gospel (Gal. 1:6- 9). Show that no man or pope is infallible. Peter (who Catholics believe was their first pope) admitted he was wrong (Gal. 2:11-14).

JUST WHEN YOU THINK ALL IS LOST, GOD KNOWS YOUR TOMORROW IS COMING.

NONE OF US CAN COMPREHEND JUST HOW MUCH GOD LOVES US. WE'VE NEVER EXPERIENCED THE PURE LOVE HE HAS FOR US FROM ANYONE ELSE.

HAVE YOU EVER ASKED GOD FOR SOMETHING THAT YOU WERE SCARED HE'D ACTUALLY GIVE YOU?

WHAT SHOULD WE DO WHEN OUR PRAYERS ARE NOT ANSWERED IN THE WAY WE WANT? A HEALING DOESNT COME, OR OUR SUFFERING CONTINUES?

HOW MANY OF YOU ARE RETIRED OR DISABLED BELIEVERS WHO WANT SOMETHING TO DO TO: 1. KEEP YOURSELF BUSY. 2. MINISTER TO OTHERS. 3. GLORIFY GOD. [EVERYONE] [all]

Psalm 27:12-13 Do not turn me over to the desire of my enemies, For false witnesses have risen against me, And the violent witness. I certainly believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord In the land of the living.

THERE IS A VERY REAL ELEMENT TO THE BLESSINGS WE DON'T SEE GOD PROVIDING FOR US BEFOREHAND. AND AS HE LOVINGLY CRAFTS THE LIFE HE WANTS FOR US THAT WE MAY NOT BE PREPARED FOR NOW, WE COMPLAIN ITS NOT HERE YET. LET'S BE THANKFUL FOR THE PLANS WE DON'T SEE AND FOR AS YET UNANSWERED PRAYERS.

WE GIVE UP ON OURSELVES A WHOLE LOT SOONER THAN GOD DOES. HE'S NOT DONE, WAIT ON HIM.

Psalm 34:4–5, 8 I sought the LORD, and He answered me and delivered me from all my fears. Those who look to Him are radiant, and their faces shall never be ashamed. Oh, taste and see that the LORD is good! Blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him!

MANY TIMES WE DO NOT HAVE WHAT GOD WANTS US TO HAVE, BECAUSE WE DON'T ASK HIM FOR IT.

Last year I posted a video on my Rumble channel entitled, "Our Last Easter?" Obviously, God granted us another and we are grateful. But we must remain mindful that the obvious signs of the end are numerous. Go back and watch it, it's all still available. What happened to Rabbi Ben David who was claiming to be the successor to Jesus, the Pope and to be the 12th Imam, yeah he is still gathering followers. It is why my cavalier attitude toward Q and a secret war I prayed we'd win for the last ten years is so hated by those who 'trust the plan', If it turns out, as I suspect it will, that promises of arrests, convictions for treason or pedophilia fail to come true and America is not saved, no Q appears and we go back to fraud and abuse ruling the day, I won't be completely devastated. Jesus is coming to save, true. But not to save our nation, but to save our souls. The restoration of America to its former glory is their end-all goal, but their hope is in a fictional savior. And when Q doesn't show, and they realize their hope was based on an event that was never going to happen, they will lose hope. Trust in Jesus, His predictions have never failed. Repent of your sin and obey the Gospel while you still have the chance, because 1,000 years from now, it won't matter in our eternity whether America continued or fell as intended. It will matter if you chose the wrong eternity.

Thank you God for this day. Bless me, Lord and help me bless others. And even if you don't bless me, I will praise you. If you don't restore me wholly on earth, I know You will in Heaven. And if i don't understand the why, I will trust you. If I don't understand the when, I will rest in your timing.

IS ANYONE EVER WHELMED? NOT OVER NOT UNDER JUST WHELMED?

I WANT TO KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING. WHAT AVENUE OF MINISTRY ARE YOU USING TO SERVE GOD? WHAT GOD-GIVEN TALENT ARE YOU USING FOR HIM AND WHAT CAN I DO TO HELP? [everyone]

All these things you're frustrated against? No deep state arrests. Thune being a RINO thug. No pedophile arrests. No arrests of 2020 election thieves. No arrests for Covid lies, treachery, and murders by hospitals. No Q. No executions. Don't expect it to happen 100%. Even 50%. The fact is, it doesn't matter. #WeAreAtTheEnd When Jesus returns, the world will not be a utopia. Christians will be executed for being Christians. A false security of peace will be offered, but it's origin is from the Antichrist. Believe and obey the gospel now. It's going to get hard, but no matter what, Jesus is coming back. And if you haven't accepted the gospel, your fate will be the same as the cowardly, the unbelieving, homosexuals, idolatrous and yes the pedophile Satanists, in an eternal inferno.

Exhortation If you have been watching my videos on Rumble or keeping up with my mini-lessons and such, you know I have MYASTHENIA GRAVIS and have struggled with it for close to a decade now. It is a neurological disease that makes it impossible for me to work, drive, and participate in normal adult social situations. I can't walk, see well, or lift more than 5 pounds. I'll be honest, there are many days that the pain is too great to even get out of my chair. There are many days when I miss being able to do basic adult type things, go alone to a mall, stroll a public park, things I could do before 2017 and can't anymore. During this long journey back to God, I have earnestly desired to do SOMETHING for the Lord. I have so many failures in life, places where I should have been doing His will and wasn't. It was the result of choices I made when I was younger. And now that I am incapable, I want to do something for Him and couldn't. It was getting depressing. And then I found this verse: Romans 12:6-8 [6] However, since we have gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, each of us is to use them properly: if prophecy, in proportion to one’s faith; [7] if service, in the act of serving; or the one who teaches, in the act of teaching; [8] or the one who exhorts, in the work of exhortation; the one who gives, with generosity; the one who is in leadership, with diligence; the one who shows mercy, with cheerfulness. I was so concerned with the fact that there are so many things I can no longer do that I began to feel useless. It broke my heart to think that I can't preach, teach, or walk around witnessing like I've seen a resurgence of online. But. And that's a very large ‘but’. What I can do is exhort, encourage you through my experience. I've gone through some of the most difficult painful experiences a person can have and many times these can act to bring us closer to Him though some may choose to use these things as an excuse to walk away from God entirely, as I almost did. I randomly experience intense pain. Yet, I will praise Him. I get discouraged due to my own limitations. Yet I will serve Him in any way I am able. I get angry with God sometimes, but I will trust Him, that despite everything His plan for my life is 1000 times better than what I could dream up. I feel alone many times in my situation. Yet He is with me. I feel lost sometimes, condemned because of my past. Yet He loves me intensely, as a father loves his child. I feel ‘fake’ sometimes like I'm not really the person I am. Yet He knows me intimately. I feel weak sometimes, like I simply lack the strength to do what I know must be done. Yet God IS my strength. God showed me that the ‘gift’ I can use to serve Him is exhortation or encouragement. And while I may not be the greatest teacher or preacher alive, Romans makes it clear that what I can do is encourage others. And that that encouragement is many times as valuable for the person as giving, something I am not really able to do. So here it is, brothers and sisters in Christ, if you need encouragement email me here: DAVIDSPORCH59[GMAIL].COM. We can chat and I can just be a person to listen to you. If you don't need encouragement then encourage me with your story, your testimony. Sometimes we ALL need it. May God bless these efforts to be a community and as long as I am able, I will respond. Keep the faith, and I may not have an answer for you, but we could pray together in agreement to exhort and encourage you.

For all those concerned with Bondi, with Thune and with zero accountability from everyone right now, stay calm. Understand that although we are encouraged by some positive things being done by Trump, I am not 100% that he succeeds. But ultimately it doesn't matter, because #WeAreAtTheEnd not of a multi-year, secret squirrel plan, but of all time and history. Jesus is returning soon. He is coming for his church, coming to end the evil and He's not going to be concerned with America's stance in the world. Get your heart right before Him. Repent and obey the Gospel, and serve Him. So when we get down to it being 2028, if the Lord tarries till then, and Q is no where in sight, don't get down. Trust in Jesus now, and if it happens, great. If it doesn't, God will handle it. Every last Epstein Island client will burn in the lake of fire eternally, every murderer, everyone not found in the Lambs Book of Life. Our justice may be denied here, but we will get it in Heaven.

Pain Imagine being in so much pain that you can't move without your body protesting loudly and intensely. That's what it's like for many of us diagnosed with MYASTHENIA GRAVIS. It's a rare neurological disease that causes our immune system to attack our own muscles. It makes simple acts complex to the point of making one struggle to keep ones head held up with our necks. So everyday simple tasks become insurmountable. You will never understand the sheer frustration of almost being capable of something. To being able to remember the ability to walk, drive or perform simple tasks on my own without the current ability to do those same things is like the universe is testifying as to your lack of worth. Is this to be my life now? To be constantly reminded how inadequate I am in life is a cruel fate. To be young enough to have to be asked why I am not working when by all appearances I should be capable of doing so is soul crushing and a never ending source of depression. Am I to be trapped in this body until death? The first night I stopped dreaming I could walk hit hard as I realized I was forgetting what it was like to be able to walk. I am essentially awaiting death as my sole purpose in life. I have to deal with that. I was diagnosed in February of 2017 with the rarest, most aggressive form of MG that exists, hospitalized in 2019, and confined to a wheelchair that same year. I get no Medicaid, no disability and no income so 100% of funds used for my needs come from one modest income. And being completely incapable of work, that burden falls on my wife. There's little that I loved doing more than just living life when I could and now very little in this world brings me joy all I can do is strive for is in revisiting things that alleviate my suffering on earth. So on the rare occasion that I am in possession of an Arturo Fuente Hemingway Classic cigar, some apple skoal or the rarer still More Menthol 120s I get no treats. (They stopped selling them here long before dad stopped smoking. The nicotine aids in treating the tremors my condition causes. Weird but true) There's little else I take pleasure in anymore. The nicotine stops the tremors and finding these products anymore is almost impossible. You see, this was to be my ministry. These writings, my videos on Rumble were my outreach. When I first began returning to Jesus, the boundless stories of miraculous encounters made me want to experience his love in much the same way. I wanted to knock on doors, I wanted to be a blessing to someone. And I saw no way of doing so given my severe mobility issues. So the only outreach I had were these simple videos on Rumble. And then that was taken, with videos impossible to make. I'm still working on solutions to video creation issues. Being broke doesn't help. Sadly, i am broke and incapable of raising an income. Every time someone watches one of my videos, it's another pensive knock on a door to witness for him. It's all I can do, so it's all I did. Every time a barrier is overcome and a video is seen that's one more reached soul for Jesus. Please help me minister to those I can't reach physically. Share my Rumble channel, pray for me I am going through immensely difficult pains, both mental and physical as this body continues to quit and prepares to be at home with Jesus. If I find a way to create videos again, I will make this into a video for distribution. I need help, please. Thank you for your support. WWW.RUMBLE.COM/USER/DAVIDSROBERTS DavidsPorch59[gmail].com
