Title: WATCH YE THEREFORE AND PRAY ALWAYS, edited
1WATCH YE THEREFORE, AND PRAY ALWAYS
Luke 2136 Watch ye therefore, and pray always,
that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all
these things that shall come to pass, and to
stand before the Son of man.
2TAKE HEED TO YOURSELVES, LEST AT ANY TIME YOUR
HEARTS BE OVERCHARGED WITH SURFEITING, AND
DRUNKENNESS, AND CARES OF THIS LIFE, AND SO THAT
DAY COME UPON YOU UNAWARES
Luke 2134-35 And take heed to yourselves, lest
at any time your hearts be overcharged with
surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this
life, and so that day come upon you unawares.
For as a snare shall it come on all them that
dwell on the face of the whole earth.
3Matthew 2641 WATCH AND PRAY, THAT YE ENTER NOT
INTO TEMPTATION THE SPIRIT INDEED IS WILLING,
BUT THE FLESH IS WEAK.
4WATCH THEREFORE FOR YE KNOW NOT WHAT HOUR YOUR
LORD DOTH COME
Matthew 2436-44 But of that day and hour
knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but
my Father only. But as the days of Noe were, so
shall also the coming of the Son of man be. For
as in the days that were before the flood they
were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in
marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the
ark, And knew not until the flood came, and took
them all away so shall also the coming of the
Son of man be. Then shall two be in the field
the one shall be taken, and the other left. Two
women shall be grinding at the mill the one
shall be taken, and the other left. Watch
therefore for ye know not what hour your Lord
doth come. But know this, that if the goodman of
the house had known in what watch the thief would
come, he would have watched, and would not have
suffered his house to be broken up. Therefore be
ye also ready for in such an hour as ye think
not the Son of man cometh.
5AND TAKE HEED TO YOURSELVES, LEST AT ANY TIME
YOUR HEARTS BE OVERCHARGED WITH SURFEITING, AND
DRUNKENNESS, AND CARES OF THIS LIFE, AND SO THAT
DAY COME UPON YOU UNAWARES
Luke 2134-36 and take heed to yourselves, lest
at any time your hearts be overcharged with
surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this
life, and so that day come upon you unawares. For
as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell
on the face of the whole earth. Watch ye
therefore, and pray always, that ye may be
accounted worthy to escape all these things that
shall come to pass, and to stand before the son
of man.
6THE DAY OF THE LORD WILL COME AS A THIEF IN THE
NIGHT
- Luke 2136 Watch ye therefore, and pray always,
that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all
these things that shall come to pass, and to
stand before the Son of man. - 1 Thessalonian 52 For yourselves know perfectly
that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in
the night. - 2 Peter 310 But the day of the Lord will come as
a thief in the night in the which the heavens
shall pass away with a great noise, and the
elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth
also and the works that are therein shall be
burned up.
7Revelation 17 Behold, he cometh with clouds
and every eye shall see him, and they also which
pierced him and all kindreds of the earth shall
wail because of him. Even so, Amen.
JUST BECAUSE SOME PEOPLE DONT BELIEVE JESUS IS
COMING BACK, DOES NOT MEAN THEY ARE RIGHT. Oh how
sad is going to be for those who were left behind
because of their disbelief.
8THEY LIVED AND REIGNED WITH CHRIST A THOUSAND
YEARS
Revelation 201-6 And I saw an angel come down
from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit
and a great chain in his hand. And he laid hold
on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the
Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand
years, And cast him into the bottomless pit, and
shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he
should deceive the nations no more, till the
thousand years should be fulfilled and after
that he must be loosed a little season. And I saw
thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was
given unto them and I saw the souls of them that
were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for
the word of God, and which had not worshipped the
beast, neither his image, neither had received
his mark upon their foreheads, or in their
hands and they lived and reigned with Christ a
thousand years. But the rest of the dead lived
not again until the thousand years were finished.
This is the first resurrection. Blessed and holy
is he that hath part in the first resurrection
on such the second death hath no power, but they
shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall
reign with him a thousand years.
9Revelation 206 Blessed and holy is he that hath
part in the first resurrection on such the
second death hath no power, but they shall be
priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign
with him a thousand years.
Revelation 211 He that hath an ear, let him
hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches He
that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second
death.
10AND I SAW A GREAT WHITE THRONE, AND HIM THAT SAT
ON IT, FROM WHOSE FACE THE EARTH AND THE HEAVEN
FLED AWAY AND THERE WAS FOUND NO PLACE FOR THEM.
Revelation 2011 And I saw a great white throne,
and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth
and the heaven fled away and there was found no
place for them. Revelation 2012 And I saw the
dead, small and great, stand before God and the
books were opened and another book was opened,
which is the book of life and the dead were
judged out of those things which were written in
the books, according to their works. Revelation
2013 And the sea gave up the dead which were in
it and death and hell delivered up the dead
which were in them and they were judged every
man according to their works. Revelation 2014
And death and hell were cast into the lake of
fire. This is the second death. Revelation
2015 And whosoever was not found written in the
book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
11GOD SHALL WIPE AWAY ALL TEARS FROM THEIR EYES
AND THERE SHALL BE NO MORE DEATH, NEITHER
SORROW, NOR CRYING, NEITHER SHALL THERE BE ANY
MORE PAIN
Revelation 211-4 And I saw a new heaven and a
new earth for the first heaven and the first
earth were passed away and there was no more
sea. And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem,
coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a
bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a
great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the
tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell
with them, and they shall be his people, and God
himself shall be with them, and be their God.
And God shall wipe away all tears from their
eyes and there shall be no more death, neither
sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any
more pain for the former things are passed away.
12AND THE BUILDING OF THE WALL OF IT WAS OF JASPER
AND THE CITY WAS PURE GOLD, LIKE UNTO CLEAR GLASS
WOW! Just look at what God is preparing for those
who love Him.
Revelation 2115-18 And he that talked with me
had a golden reed to measure the city, and the
gates thereof, and the wall thereof. And the city
lieth foursquare, and the length is as large as
the breadth and he measured the city with the
reed, twelve thousand furlongs. The length and
the breadth and the height of it are equal. And
he measured the wall thereof, an hundred and
forty and four cubits, according to the measure
of a man, that is, of the angel. And the building
of the wall of it was of jasper and the city was
pure gold, like unto clear glass.
DONT YOU WANT TO LIVE IN THAT CITY? YOU CAN.
OBEY GODS WORD.
12
13AND I SAW NO TEMPLE THEREIN FOR THE LORD GOD
ALMIGHTY AND THE LAMB ARE THE TEMPLE OF IT.
Revelation 2121-27 And the twelve gates were
twelve pearls every several gate was of one
pearl and the street of the city was pure gold,
as it were transparent glass. And I saw no temple
therein for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb
are the temple of it. And the city had no need of
the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it for
the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is
the light thereof. And the nations of them which
are saved shall walk in the light of it and the
kings of the earth do bring their glory and
honour into it. And the gates of it shall not be
shut at all by day for there shall be no night
there. And they shall bring the glory and honour
of the nations into it. And there shall in no
wise enter into it any thing that defileth,
neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh
a lie but they which are written in the Lamb's
book of life.
14THE FOUNDATIONS OF THE WALL OF THE CITY OF THE
NEW JERUSALEM
THE NEW JERUSALEM Revelation 2119-20 And the
foundations of the wall of the city were
garnished with all manner of precious stones.
The First Foundation was Jasper The Second,
Sapphire The Third, A Chalcedony The Fourth,
An Emerald The fifth, sardonyx The Sixth,
Sardius The Seventh, Chrysolite The Eighth,
Beryl The Ninth, A Topaz The Tenth, A
Chrysoprasus The Eleventh, A Jacinth The
twelfth, An Amethyst.
15TO HIM THAT OVERCOMETH WILL I GIVE TO EAT OF THE
TREE OF LIFE.
Revelation 27 He that hath an ear, let him hear
what the Spirit saith unto the churches To him
that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of
life, which is in the midst of the paradise of
God.
16BE THOU FAITHFUL UNTO DEATH, AND I WILL GIVE
THEE A CROWN OF LIFE
He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the
second death
Revelation 210-11 Fear none of those things
which thou shalt suffer behold, the devil shall
cast some of you into prison, that ye may be
tried and ye shall have tribulation ten days be
thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a
crown of life. He that hath an ear, let him hear
what the Spirit saith unto the churches He that
overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death.
17WE CANT EVEN BEGIN TO UNDERSTAND, IMAGINE, OR
COMPREHEND HOW WONDERFUL IT IS GOING TO BE LIKE
TO LIVE IN A PEACEFUL WORLD RULED BY JESUS.
Isaiah 116-9 The wolf also shall dwell with the
lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the
kid and the calf and the young lion and the
fatling together and a little child shall lead
them. And the cow and the bear shall feed their
young ones shall lie down together and the lion
shall eat straw like the ox. And the sucking
child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the
weaned child shall put his hand on the
cockatrice' den. They shall not hurt nor destroy
in all my holy mountain for the earth shall be
full of the knowledge of the LORD, as the waters
cover the sea.
- The kid A young goat.
- The fatling A lamb, kid or other young animal.
- Sucking a baby or young animal.
- Asp cobra
- Cockatrice A serpent, viper.
18I CREATE NEW HEAVENS AND A NEW EARTH AND THE
FORMER SHALL NOT BE REMEMBERED, NOR COME INTO MIND
Isaiah 6517-25 For, behold, I create new heavens
and a new earth and the former shall not be
remembered, nor come into mind. But be ye glad
and rejoice for ever in that which I create for,
behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her
people a joy. And I will rejoice in Jerusalem,
and joy in my people and the voice of weeping
shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of
crying. There shall be no more thence an infant
of days, nor an old man that hath not filled his
days for the child shall die an hundred years
old but the sinner being an hundred years old
shall be accursed. And they shall build houses,
and inhabit them and they shall plant vineyards,
and eat the fruit of them. They shall not build,
and another inhabit they shall not plant, and
another eat for as the days of a tree are the
days of my people, and mine elect shall long
enjoy the work of their hands. They shall not
labour in vain, nor bring forth for trouble for
they are the seed of the blessed of the LORD, and
their offspring with them. And it shall come to
pass, that before they call, I will answer and
while they are yet speaking, I will hear. The
wolf and the lamb shall feed together, and the
lion shall eat straw like the bullock and dust
shall be the serpent's meat. They shall not hurt
nor destroy in all my holy mountain, saith the
LORD.
19IT IS EXCITING TALKING ABOUT THE PEACEFUL AND
ETERNAL LIFE THAT THOSE WHO LOVE GOD WILL BE A
PART OF. But, there are multitudes who are not
ready for the coming of Jesus.
20They have not made themselves ready to go with
Jesus when he comes for his born again church.
God loves them and doesnt want them left
behind. He wants them saved, too.
2 Peter 39 The Lord is not slack concerning his
promise, as some men count slackness but is
longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any
should perish, but that all should come to
repentance.
21The following slides in this PowerPoint
presentation is for those who want to be born
again of the water and of the Spirit, but dont
know WHAT THEY MUST DO.
22YOU MUST BELIEVE IN THE LORD JESUS CHRIST AND
TRUST HIM FOR YOUR SALVATION!
2 Corinthians 62 (For he saith, I have heard
thee in a time accepted, and in the day of
salvation have I succoured thee behold, now is
the accepted time behold, now is the day of
salvation.)
Webster's 1828 Dictionary Succor SUC'COR, verb
transitive Literally, to run to, or run to
support hence, to help or relieve when in
difficulty, want or distress to assist and
deliver from suffering He is able
to succor them that are tempted. Hebrews 218.
(Hebrew 218 For in that he himself hath
suffered being tempted, he is able to succour
them that are tempted) SUC'COR, noun Aid help
assistance particularly, assistance that
relieves and delivers from difficulty, want or
distress.
23JESUS IS THE ONLY WAY TO THE FATHER!
1 Corinthians 86 But to us there is but one
God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we
in him and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are
all things, and we by him.
24I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE NO MAN
COMETH UNTO THE FATHER, BUT BY ME
John 141-11 Let not your heart be troubled ye
believe in God, believe also in me. In my
Father's house are many mansions if it were not
so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a
place for you. And if I go and prepare a place
for you, I will come again, and receive you unto
myself that where I am, there ye may be also.
And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.
Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither
thou goest and how can we know the way? Jesus
saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the
life no man cometh unto the Father, but by
me. If ye had known me, ye should have known my
Father also and from henceforth ye know him, and
have seen him. Philip saith unto him, Lord,
shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us. Jesus
saith unto him, Have I been so long time with
you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he
that hath seen me hath seen the Father and how
sayest thou then, Shew us the Father? Believest
thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father
in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak
not of myself but the Father that dwelleth in
me, he doeth the works. Believe me that I am in
the Father, and the Father in me or else
believe me for the very works' sake.
251 Timothy 25 For there is one God, and one
mediator between God and men, the man Christ
Jesus
John 644 No man can come to me, except the
Father which hath sent me draw him and I will
raise him up at the last day. John 645 It is
written in the prophets, And they shall be all
taught of God. Every man therefore that hath
heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh
unto me. John 646 Not that any man hath seen
the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen
the Father. John 647 Verily, verily, I say
unto you, He that believeth on me hath
everlasting life. John 648 I am that bread of
life.
26THERE IS ONLY ONE GOSPEL THAT THE DISCIPLES
PREACHED AND THAT IS THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST!
Galatians 16 I marvel that ye are so soon
removed from him that called you into the grace
of Christ unto another gospel Galatians 17
Which is not another but there be some that
trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of
Christ. Galatians 18 But though we, or an
angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto
you then that which we have preached unto you,
let him be accursed. Galatians 19 As we said
before, so say I now again, If any man preach any
other gospel unto you than that ye have received,
let him be accursed. Galatians 110 For do I now
persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men?
for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the
servant of Christ.
Acts 412 Neither is there salvation in any
other for there is none other name under heaven
given among men, whereby we must be saved.
Jude 13 Beloved, when I gave all diligence to
write unto you of the common salvation, it was
needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you
that ye should earnestly contend for the faith
which was once delivered unto the saints.
27WHO IS THE LORD, AND WHAT IS HIS NAME?
WHO DID THE LORD SAY HE WAS? HE SAID, I AM JESUS!
Acts 91-6 And Saul, yet breathing out
threatenings and slaughter against the disciples
of the Lord, went unto the high priest, And
desired of him letters to Damascus to the
synagogues, that if he found any of this way,
whether they were men or women, he might bring
them bound unto Jerusalem. And as he journeyed,
he came near Damascus and suddenly there shined
round about him a light from heaven And he fell
to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him,
Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? And he
said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am
Jesus whom thou persecutest it is hard for thee
to kick against the pricks. And he trembling and
astonished said, Lord, what wilt thou have me to
do? And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go
into the city, and it shall be told thee what
thou must do.
Acts 917-18 And Ananias went his way, and
entered into the house and putting his hands on
him said, Brother Saul, the Lord, even Jesus,
that appeared unto thee in the way as thou
camest, hath sent me, that thou mightest receive
thy sight, and be filled with the Holy
Ghost. And immediately there fell from his eyes
as it had been scales and he received sight
forthwith, and arose, and was baptized.
28YOU MUST REPENT and BE BAPTIZED IN THE NAME OF
JESUS CHRIST FOR THE REMISSION OF YOUR SINS
REPENT OF YOUR SINS Ask the Lord to forgive you
for all the bad things (called sins) that you
have done, and He will. You dont have to worry
about how many sins you can name, God knows what
they are. After you have repented, asking Him to
forgive you of your sins, begin thanking and
praising Him in your own words.
29THE BIBLE COMMANDS AND TEACHES THE NECESSITY OF
WATER BAPTISM FOR THE NEW TESTAMENT CHURCH SO IT
IS OUR RESPONSIBILITY TO OBEY THIS COMMAND.
Mark 1614 Afterward he appeared unto the eleven
as they sat at meat, and upbraided them with
their unbelief and hardness of heart, because
they believed not them which had seen him after
he was risen. Mark 1615 And he said unto them,
Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel
to every creature. Mark 1616 He that believeth
and is baptized shall be saved but he that
believeth not shall be damned. Mark 1617 And
these signs shall follow them that believe In my
name shall they cast out devils they shall speak
with new tongues Mark 1618 They shall take up
serpents and if they drink any deadly thing, it
shall not hurt them they shall lay hands on the
sick, and they shall recover. Mark 1619 So
then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was
received up into heaven, and sat on the right
hand of God. Mark 1620 And they went forth,
and preached every where, the Lord working with
them, and confirming the word with signs
following. Amen.
30Some people will tell you they would rather
believe Jesus than to believe Peter when they
quote Matthew 2819 compared to Acts 238 in
regards to which name to baptize people in. They
should read John 1720
Acts 237-39 Now when they heard this, they were
pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and
to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren,
what shall we do? Then Peter said unto them,
Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the
name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins,
and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy
Ghost. For the promise is unto you, and to your
children, and to all that are afar off, even as
many as the Lord our God shall call.
Matthew 2819-20 Go ye therefore, and teach all
nations, baptizing them in the name of the
Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy
Ghost Teaching them to observe all things
whatsoever I have commanded you and, lo, I am
with you alway, even unto the end of the world.
Amen.
John 720 Neither pray I for these alone, but for
them also which shall believe on me through their
word
Luke 2447 And that repentance and remission of
sins should be preached in his name among all
nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
31QUESTION HOW DID THE DISCIPLES OBEY THE COMMAND
THAT JESUS GAVE THEM, REGARDING BAPTISM, IN
MATTHEW 2819-20?
(Matthew 2819-20 is a command to obey, not
repeat)
ANSWER INSTEAD OF REPEATING JESUS COMMAND,
THEY OBEYED HIS COMMAND, BY BAPTIZING PEOPLE IN
THE NAME (as Jesus told them to do) OF JESUS
CHRIST, FOR THE REMISSION OF SINS. (READ the
scriptures on the following slides)
32NOTICE, IN THE SCRIPTURES BELOW, THAT THE
DISCIPLES NEVER BAPTIZED ANY ONE IN THE TITLES
FATHER, SON, AND, HOLY GHOST. NOR DID THEY TELL
ANYONE TO BE BAPTIZED IN THE TITLES. THE ONLY
NAME GIVEN TO BE BAPTIZED IN, WAS IN THE NAME OF
JESUS CHRIST and THE LORD JESUS..
Acts 237 Now when they heard this, they were
pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and
to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren,
what shall we do? Acts 238 Then Peter said unto
them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in
the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of
sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy
Ghost. Acts 239 For the promise is unto you,
and to your children, and to all that are afar
off, even as many as the Lord our God shall
call. Acts 240 And with many other words did he
testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from
this untoward generation. Acts 241 Then they
that gladly received his word were baptized and
the same day there were added unto them about
three thousand souls.
Acts 815 Who, when they were come down, prayed
for them, that they might receive the Holy
Ghost Acts 816 (For as yet he was fallen upon
none of them only they were baptized in the name
of the Lord Jesus.) Acts 817 Then laid they
their hands on them, and they received the Holy
Ghost.
Acts 1048 And he commanded them to be baptized
in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to
tarry certain days.
Acts 195 When they heard this, they were
baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. Acts
196 And when Paul had laid his hands upon them,
the Holy Ghost came on them and they spake with
tongues, and prophesied.
Acts 2216 And now why tarriest thou? arise, and
be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on
the name of the Lord.
33MANY PEOPLE ARE BAPTIZED IN THE WRONG NAME.
THERE IS ONLY ONE NAME GIVEN AMONG MEN WHEREBY
WE MUST BE SAVED
Acts 412 Neither is there salvation in any
other for there is none other name under heaven
given among men, whereby we must be saved.
Colossians 317 And whatsoever ye do in word or
deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus,
giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
You probably wonder, who and why did baptism by
immerging, and in the name of Jesus Christ, was
changed to the trinity titles, Father, Son, and
Holy Ghost. Copy the link below and paste them
in your online search browser, to see who changed
the baptismal formula

Now that it has been revealed to you what the
right name is, you must obey Gods word, the same
way His disciples obeyed Him when they baptized
everyone in the name of Jesus Christ for the
remission of sins.
33
34AFTER PAUL EXPLAINED THE GOSPEL TO JOHNS
DISCIPLES, THEY WERE RE-BAPTIZED IN THE NAME OF
THE LORD JESUS AND WERE FILLED WITH THE HOLY
GHOST, SPEAKING IN TONGUES AS THE SPIRIT GAVE
THEM THE UTTERANCE. WE MUST DO THE SAME!
PAUL IN EPHESUS Acts 191-6 And it came to pass,
that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having
passed through the upper coasts came to Ephesus
and finding certain disciples, He said unto them,
Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye
believed? And they said unto him, We have not so
much as heard whether there be any Holy
Ghost. And he said unto them, Unto what then were
ye baptized? And they said, Unto John's
baptism. Then said Paul, John verily baptized
with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the
people, that they should believe on him which
should come after him, that is, on Christ
Jesus. When they heard this, they were baptized
in the name of the Lord Jesus. And when Paul had
laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came
on them and they spake with tongues, and
prophesied.
34
35THE LIKE FIGURE TO WHICH, EVEN BAPTISM, DOTH ALSO
NOW SAVE US (NOT THE PUTTING AWAY OF THE FILTH
OF THE FLESH, BUT THE ANSWER OF A GOOD CONSCIENCE
TOWARDS GOD,) BY THE RESURRECTION OF JESUS
CHRIST
1 Peter 320-21 Who formerly were disobedient,
when once the long-suffering of God waited in the
days of Noah, while the ark was preparing, in
which few, that is, eight souls, were saved by
water. The like figure to which, even baptism,
doth also now save us (not the putting away of
the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good
conscience towards God,) by the resurrection of
Jesus Christ
36IS CHRIST DIVIDED? WAS PAUL CRUCIFIED FOR YOU? OR
WERE YE BAPTIZED IN THE NAME OF PAUL?
1 Corinthians 110 Now I beseech you, brethren,
by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all
speak the same thing, and that there be no
divisions among you but that ye be perfectly
joined together in the same mind and in the same
judgment. 1 Corinthians 111 For it hath been
declared unto me of you, my brethren, by them
which are of the house of Chloe, that there are
contentions among you. 1 Corinthians 112 Now
this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of
Paul and I of Apollos and I of Cephas and I of
Christ. 1 Corinthians 113 Is Christ divided?
was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized
in the name of Paul? 1 Corinthians 114 I thank
God that I baptized none of you, but Crispus and
Gaius 1 Corinthians 115 Lest any should say
that I had baptized in mine own name. 1
Corinthians 116 And I baptized also the
household of Stephanas besides, I know not
whether I baptized any other.
JOHN WESLEY BIBLE COMMENTARY 1 Corinthians
113 Is Christ divided - Are not all the members
still under one head? Was not he alone crucified
for you all and were ye not all baptized in his
name? The glory of Christ then is not to be
divided between him and his servants neither is
the unity of the body to be torn asunder, seeing
Christ is one still.
37Romans 1314 But put ye on the Lord Jesus
Christ, and make not provision for the lusts of
flesh. Galatians 327 For as many of you as
have been baptized into Christ, have put on
Christ.
38THAT SO MANY OF US AS WERE BAPTIZED INTO JESUS
CHRIST WERE BAPTIZED INTO HIS DEATH
Romans 63 Know ye not, that so many of us as
were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized
into his death? Romans 64 Therefore we are
buried with him by baptism into death that like
as Christ was raised up from the dead by the
glory of the Father, even so we also should walk
in newness of life. Romans 65 For if we have
been united with Him like this in His death, we
will certainly also be united with Him in
resurrection.
COLOSSIANS 212-13 Buried with him in baptism,
wherein also ye are risen with him through the
faith of the operation of God, who hath raised
him from the dead. When you were dead in your
trespasses and in the uncircumcision of your
sinful nature, God made you alive with Christ.
He forgave us all our trespasses,
39ALLOW GOD TO FILL YOU WITH THE HOLY GHOST, WITH
THE EVIDENCE OF SPEAKING IN TONGUES AS THE
SPIRIT GIVES THE UTTERANCE.
40THE COMFORTER, WHICH IS THE HOLY GHOST, WHOM THE
FATHER WILL SEND IN MY NAME
John 1422-29 Judas saith unto him, not
Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest
thyself unto us, and not unto the world? Jesus
answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he
will keep my words and my Father will love him,
and we will come unto him, and make our abode
with him. He that loveth me not keepeth not my
sayings and the word which ye hear is not mine,
but the Father's which sent me. These things have
I spoken unto you, being yet present with
you. But the Comforter, which is the Holy
Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he
shall teach you all things, and bring all things
to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto
you. Peace I leave with you, my peace I give
unto you not as the world giveth, give I unto
you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let
it be afraid. Ye have heard how I said unto you,
I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved
me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto
the Father for my Father is greater than I.
And now I have told you before it come to pass,
that, when it is come to pass, ye might believe.

41HOW MUCH MORE SHALL YOUR HEAVENLY FATHER GIVE THE
HOLY SPIRIT TO THEM THAT ASK HIM?
Luke 119-13 And I say unto you, Ask, and it
shall be given you seek, and ye shall find
knock, and it shall be opened unto you. For every
one that asketh receiveth and he that seeketh
findeth and to him that knocketh it shall be
opened. If a son shall ask bread of any of you
that is a father, will he give him a stone? or if
he ask a fish, will he for a fish give him a
serpent? Or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer
him a scorpion? If ye then, being evil, know how
to give good gifts unto your children how much
more shall your Heavenly Father give the Holy
Spirit to them that ask him?
ACTS 532 AND WE ARE HIS WITNESSES OF THESE
THINGS AND SO IS ALSO THE HOLY SPIRIT, WHOM GOD
HATH GIVEN TO THEM THAT OBEY HIM.
42THESE SIGNS SHALL FOLLOW THEM THAT BELIEVE
Mark 1615-18 And he said unto them, Go ye into
all the world, and preach the gospel to every
creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall
be saved but he that believeth not shall be
damned. And these signs shall follow them that
believe In my name shall they cast out devils
they shall speak with new tongues They shall
take up serpents and if they drink any deadly
thing, it shall not hurt them they shall lay
hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
43ON THE GENTILES ALSO WAS POURED OUT THE GIFT OF
THE HOLY GHOST FOR THEY HEARD THEM SPEAK WITH
TONGUES, AND MAGNIFY GOD AND HE COMMANDED THEM
TO BE BAPTIZED IN THE NAME OF THE LORD
Acts 1044 While Peter yet spake these words,
the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the
word. Acts 1045 And they of the circumcision
which believed were astonished, as many as came
with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was
poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost. Acts
1046 For they heard them speak with tongues,
and magnify God. Then answered Peter, Acts 1047
Can any man forbid water, that these should not
be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost
as well as we? Acts 1048 And he commanded them
to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then
prayed they him to tarry certain days.
44John 1717-20 Sanctify them through thy truth
thy word is truth. As thou hast sent me into the
world, even so have I also sent them into the
world. And for their sakes I sanctify myself,
that they also might be sanctified through the
truth. Neither pray I for these alone, but for
them also which shall believe on me through
their word
Galatians 18 But though we, or an angel from
heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than
that which we have preached unto you, let him be
accursed.
45TONGUES ARE FOR A SIGN, NOT TO THEM THAT BELIEVE,
BUT TO THEM THAT BELIEVE NOT
1 Corinthians 1421 In the law it is written,
With men of other tongues and other lips will I
speak unto this people and yet for all that will
they not hear me, saith the Lord. 1 Corinthians
1422 Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to
them that believe, but to them that believe not
but prophesying serveth not for them that believe
not, but for them which believe.
Regarding verse 22, Them that believe are
already speaking in tongues. Perhaps when those
who believe not, will begin to believe, when they
see and hear that a person does speak in tongues
when they are filled with the Holy Ghost. I pray
that they will realize that they, too, must be
filled with Gods Spirit.
Mark 1615-18 And he said unto them, Go ye into
all the world, and preach the gospel to every
creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall
be saved but he that believeth not shall be
damned. And these signs shall follow them that
believe In my name shall they cast out devils
they shall speak with new tongues They shall
take up serpents and if they drink any deadly
thing, it shall not hurt them they shall lay
hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

46JESUS ANSWERED, VERILY, VERILY, I SAY UNTO THEE,
EXCEPT A MAN BE BORN OF WATER AND OF THE SPIRIT,
HE CANNOT ENTER INTO THE KINGDOM OF GOD
John 33 Jesus answered and said unto him,
Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be
born again, he cannot see the kingdom of
God. John 35 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I
say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and
of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom
of God. John 36 That which is born of the flesh
is flesh and that which is born of the Spirit is
spirit. John 37 Marvel not that I said unto
thee, Ye must be born again. John 38 The wind
bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the
sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it
cometh, and whither it goeth so is every one
that is born of the Spirit.
47GOD SAID HE WOULD POUR OUT OF HIS SPIRIT UPON ALL
FLESH AND HE DID, ON THE DAY OF PENTECOST, JUST
LIKE HE SAID HE WOULD DO! AND HE IS STILL DOING
IT TODAY!
Acts 214-18 But Peter, standing up with the
eleven, lifted up his voice, For these are not
drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is but the
third hour of the day. But this is that which
was spoken by the prophet Joel And it shall come
to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour
out of my Spirit upon all flesh and your sons
and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young
men shall see visions, and your old men shall
dream dreams And on my servants and on my
handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my
Spirit and they shall prophesy
Joel 228-29 The Lord Will Pour Out His Spirit
And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will
pour out my spirit upon all flesh and your sons
and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men
shall dream dreams, your young men shall see
visions And also upon the servants and upon the
handmaids in those days will I pour out my
spirit.
48Acts 24 And they were all filled with the Holy
Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as
the Spirit gave them utterance.
Acts 1044 While Peter yet spake these words,
the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the
word. Acts 1045 And they of the circumcision
which believed were astonished, as many as came
with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was
poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost. Acts
1046 For they heard them speak with tongues,
and magnify God. Then answered Peter, Acts
1047 Can any man forbid water, that these
should not be baptized, which have received the
Holy Ghost as well as we? Acts 1048 And he
commanded them to be baptized in the name of the
Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days.
49As you surrender yourself to the Lord, use
whatever words of praise and worship that you
want to use. Just be sincere in what you say.
Below are some words some people use as they
worship and praise the Lord as they believe God
to fill them with His Spirit.
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU JESUS!
50Speak out loud as you praise the Lord. It doesnt
mean you have to scream. By that we mean use your
voice to praise the Lord, instead of whispering
or speaking in silence. It allows the Holy
Spirit to use your voice, as He gives the
utterance, and as a result, proves that God has
filled you with the Holy Ghost.
Closing your eyes may help you stay focused on
the LORD as you worship Him.
51Enjoy the presence of the Lord as you praise and
worship Him. Dont let anything distract you. As
your faith grows stronger, you will more and more
believe that God keeps His promise and is going
to fill you with His precious Holy Spirit. It is
a gift from God to you. You do not have to beg
Him for it. Just keep praising and worshipping
the Lord and it will happen.
52STAY FOCUSED ON THE LORD AS YOU WORSHIP HIM
53KEEP ALL OF YOUR ATTENTION ON THE LORD AS YOU
PRAISE AND WORSHIP HIM.
Some people are more emotional than others, so
you may hear some people speaking VERY loudly as
they worship. Try not to let it distract you.
Just continue focusing on the Lord as you praise
and worship Him. If you stay focused on the
Lord, you will be surprised how quickly you will
lose focus on the person who is a bit loud and
very emotional in their worship.
54Some people think when their lips are stammering,
they have been filled with the Holy Ghost.
But, they are wrong!
Stammering is something that usually happens just
before the words the Holy Ghost is giving you to
speak turns into a clear language. When
stammering begins, yield yourself to Gods Spirit
by allowing the words to change. For example, if
you were praising the Lord in English, and the
Holy Spirit begins to form words in your mouth,
dont try to continue speaking in English. Just
allow the Holy Spirit to change your words into
the words He wants you to speak.
55Many people think that because God healed them
they must be saved, or they think that because
God delivered them from an evil spirit they must
be saved, or they think that because they felt
joy they must be saved.
BUT, ARE THEY SAVED?
56Notice that the people mentioned in the
scripture, below, felt the same emotions that
many of us feel.
Acts 84 Therefore they that were scattered
abroad went every where preaching the word. Acts
85 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria,
and preached Christ unto them. Acts 86 And the
people with one accord gave heed unto those
things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the
miracles which he did. Acts 87 For unclean
spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many
that were possessed with them and many taken
with palsies, and that were lame, were
healed. Acts 88 and there was great joy in that
city.
BUT, WERE THEY SAVED?
57Acts 812 But when they believed Philip
preaching the things concerning the kingdom of
God, and the name of Jesus Christ, they were
baptized, both men and women. Acts 813 Then
Simon himself believed also and when he was
baptized, he continued with Philip, and wondered,
beholding the miracles and signs which were
done. Acts 814 Now when the apostles which were
at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the
word of God, they sent unto them Peter and
John Acts 815 Who, when they were come down,
prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy
Ghost Acts 816 (For as yet he was fallen upon
none of them only they were baptized in the name
of the Lord Jesus.) Acts 817 Then laid they
their hands on them, and they received the Holy
Ghost.
58You must never depend on your emotions,
especially regarding your salvation! When God
fills you with the Holy Ghost, you will speak in
tongues as the Spirit gives you the utterance
(the words to speak).
59NOW IF ANY MAN HAVE NOT THE SPIRIT OF CHRIST, HE
IS NONE OF HIS.
Romans 89 But ye are not in the flesh, but in
the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God
dwell in you. Romans 810 And if Christ be in
you, the body is dead because of sin but the
Spirit is life because of righteousness. Romans
811 But if the Spirit of him that raised up
Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised
up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your
mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.
60YE WERE SEALED WITH THAT HOLY SPIRIT OF PROMISE
Ephesians 113 In whom ye also trusted, after
that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of
your salvation in whom also after that ye
believed, ye were sealed with that Holy Spirit of
promise,
Ephesians 430 And grieve not the Holy Spirit of
God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of
redemption.
61THOSE IN THE BIBLE, AS RECORDED IN THE BOOK OF
ACTS, WERE ALL FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT AND
SPOKE IN TONGUES AS THE SPIRIT GAVE THEM THE
WORDS TO SPEAK.
62There is absolutely NO OTHER RELIGION that has
THE SEAL of the HOLY SPIRIT that shows a person
has been filled with the Holy Ghost. THE PROOF
Every time a person is filled with the Holy
Ghost, he/she speaks in tongues as the Spirit
gives them the utterance. (Read the book of Acts
and see for yourself that this is true)
Ephesians 113-14 In whom ye also trusted, after
that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of
your salvation in whom also after that ye
believed, ye were sealed with that Holy Spirit of
promise, Which is the earnest of our inheritance
until the redemption of the purchased possession,
unto the praise of his glory.
2 Timothy 219 Nevertheless the foundation of
God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord
knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one
that nameth the name of Christ depart from
iniquity.
63ONCE YOU HAVE BEEN FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT,
PRAY IN TONGUES OFTEN DAILY IS EVEN BETTER!
1 Corinthians 142 For he that speaketh in an
unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto
God for no man understandeth him howbeit in the
spirit he speaketh mysteries. 1 Corinthians
143 But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men
to edification, and exhortation, and comfort. 1
Corinthians 144 He that speaketh in an unknown
tongue edifieth himself but he that prophesieth
edifieth the church.
Some people dont pray in the Holy Ghost as often
as they should, and when they do, they find it
difficult to speak in tongues as easily as when
they were first filled with the Holy Ghost. It
causes some to lose faith when it becomes
difficult for them to begin speaking in tongues
again. Some think it is because they have lost
the Holy Ghost. In order to not go through
having doubt and/or the difficult struggle of
trying to speak in tongues again, dont wait for
a long time to speak in tongues pray in the Holy
Ghost often, even daily.
Jude 120 But ye, beloved, building up
yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in
the Holy Ghost, Jude 121 Keep yourselves in
the love of God, looking for the mercy of our
Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.
64YOU MUST HAVE FAITH IN GOD. FAITH WITHOUT WORKS
IS DEAD Ye see then how that by works a man is
justified, and not by faith only.
James 214 What doth it profit, my brethren,
though a man say he hath faith, and have not
works? can faith save him? James 217 Even so
faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being
alone. James 218 Yea, a man may say, Thou hast
faith, and I have works shew me thy faith
without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith
by my works. James 219 Thou believest that
there is one God thou doest well the devils
also believe, and tremble. James 220 But wilt
thou know, O vain man, that faith without works
is dead? James 223 And the scripture was
fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and
it was imputed unto him for righteousness and he
was called the Friend of God. James 224 Ye see
then how that by works a man is justified, and
not by faith only. James 226 For as the body
without the spirit is dead, so faith without
works is dead also.
THERE IS MORE TO BELIEVING, THAN SIMPLY SAYING
YOU BELIEVE. The devils also believe, and tremble
(James 219)
65SIGNS SHALL FOLLOW THEM THAT BELIEVE
Mark 1616 He that believeth and is baptized
shall be saved but he that believeth not shall
be damned. Mark 1617 And these signs shall
follow them that believe In my name shall they
cast out devils they shall speak with new
tongues Mark 1618 They shall take up
serpents and if they drink any deadly thing, it
shall not hurt them they shall lay hands on the
sick, and they shall recover.
Mark 1620 And they went forth, and preached
every where, the Lord working with them, and
confirming the word with signs following. Amen.

DONT BE DECEIVED JESUS IS COMING BACK AGAIN,
WHETHER PEOPLE BELIEVE IT OR NOT!
67Hebrews 23 How shall we escape, if we neglect so
great salvation which at the first began to be
spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by
them that heard him
68John 317 For God did not send his Son into the
world to condemn the world, but in order that the
world might be saved through him.
2 Peter 39 The Lord is not slack concerning his
promise, as some men count slackness but is
longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any
should perish, but that all should come to
repentance. 2 Peter 310 But the day of the
Lord will come as a thief in the night in the
which the heavens shall pass away with a great
noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent
heat, the earth also and the works that are
therein shall be burned up. 2 Peter 311 Seeing
then that all these things shall be dissolved,
what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy
conversation and godliness, 2 Peter 312
Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the
day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire
shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt
with fervent heat? 2 Peter 313 Nevertheless
we, according to his promise, look for new
heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth
righteousness.
69Ephesians 113-14 In whom ye also trusted, after
that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of
your salvation in whom also after that ye
believed, ye were sealed with that Holy Spirit of
promise, Which is the earnest of our inheritance
until the redemption of the purchased possession,
unto the praise of his glory.
Ephesians 113-14 will happen to you, too, after
you trust God, hear the word of truth, which is
the gospel of your salvation, repent of your
sins, get baptized in the name of Jesus Christ
for the remission of your sins and believe that
God will seal you with His Holy Spirit of promise.
Romans 1017 So then faith cometh by hearing, and
hearing by the word of God.
