" If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed."

John 8:36

"For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:

As free, and not using your liberty for a cloke of maliciousness, but as the servants of God."

1 Peter 2:15-16

outline

WE NOW START another theme for the month of June, and that is, “Victorious Christian Life

Through Freedom.” As we celebrate the time when we were granted our national freedom, it would be great for us, Christians, to understand the free-dom we have as children of God. Freedom, when properly understood, would enlighten us that the Bible is not just a set of do’s and don’ts, but it is a Book that helps us gain freedom from a tragic life. I pray that the Sunday School lessons and prea-chings this month would all the more strengthen our spiritual life.

Meanwhile, many of our young people would be busy again for the start of another school year. May I remind you that in aiming to do your best in your studies, do not neglect our God who will supply the abilities and knowledge you need. Be faithful still in your church attendance, Bible reading, prayer life and in winning souls.

Finally, I am always happy to hear about what God is doing in my preaching engagements here in America. Having visited several churches in three different states, I know that God’s Word will not return to Him void and that the power of His Word will work in the listeners’ hearts. Of course, this is because you are praying for me and my wife. Though we miss the church so much, I am grateful to God that He provided men and women who love God and His work and are faithfully serving Him. Your labour is not in vain in the Lord!

Victorious Christian Living (Freedom to Choose) John 8:36

I. Believers freedom of choice must be based on the Saviour’s entitlement. A. God owned us by way of creation. B. God owned us twice by the way of justification. C. God owned us still by way of regeneration. D. God owned us forever by way of glorification.

II. Believers freedom of choice must be biased (subjected) in favor of the Saviour’s encouragement (commandment). A. The believer’s freedom to choose must revolve in the word of God. B. The believer’s freedom to choose must resonate (echo, ring) the wisdom of God. C. The believer’s freedom to choose must regard highly the will of God.

III. Believers freedom of choice must be boarded on the Saviour’s enjoyment. A. The Saviour’s smile is better than the devil’s furiousness. B. The Saviour’s smile is better than the dealings of worldly friendships. C. The Saviour’s smile is better than the disgusted self-centered flesh.

VICTORIOUS THROUGHBEING FREE IN CHOICE

Freedom does not mean I am able to do whatever I want to do. That’s the worst kind

of bondage. Freedom means I have been set free to become all that God wants me to be,

to achieve all that God wants me to achieve, to enjoy all that God wants me to enjoy.

Dear Pastor Ed/Church members,

Greetings in the most precious name of our Lord Jesus Christ!

I want to thank the Lord for the privilege He has given me to have Christian Bible Baptist Church as my sending Church. I thank God for allowing me to go to foreign mission through my Pastor, Dr. Ed, whom I thank for all the principles, love, and untiring support he is bestowing on me.

Our precious heavenly Father has done many amazing things in my deputation in order to prepare me to be ready spiritually, mentally, emotionally, financially and physically to the mission field wherein He has called me. One wonderful experience that motivates me in my mission-endeavor is to see different work and ministries, with the sacrifices of the members in giving their mission’s faith promise offerings. Through this, I am really encouraged more to work hard, share the Gospel with the lost souls, and love God more. I keep on reminding myself, “DON’T BE LAZY.” God is always there watching as expressed by Proverbs 15:3, and He sees if I am doing my best to reach out to those many souls who are dying and in need of salvation. I believe that I can help others by God’s grace, knowing that He will never leave me nor forsake me. Indeed, God’s plan, God’s way, God’s will are always accomplished in His perfect time. I am really enjoying in the CENTER of God’s will.

Thank you, Pastor and church members, for the warm fellowship you have shown me, for the good food and accommodation you prepared. I really appreciated them. Indeed, your PARTNERSHIP with me in the Lord’s work is a great blessing for me. God bless you more.

Please do pray for me that God will continue to use me to share the gospel with the Thai people and to the Filipinos as well. Please pray for my safe departure on June 6, 2011. Please pray for my study of the Thai Language and my ministry in Bangkok Bible Baptist Church under the ministry of Pastor Enrilie Badua. I will assist in their Sunday School, discipleship and soulwinning programs.

Please continue to support me in your prayers and in finances. Your investment for the Lord’s work is not in vain. I Corinthians 15:58, Hebrews 6:10. I’m praying for your Pastor/Church and ministries. May God continue to pour His abundant blessing upon you all.

Your Missionary with Christ,

Sis. Ruvelyn Cacho

ANG sabi ni Hesus, “Ako ang daan, ang katotohanan, at ang buhay: walang makapupunta sa Ama kundi

sa pamamagitan ko.” Juan 14:6

Wala nang iba pang makapagliligtas sa iyo mula sa impierno. Magtiwala ka kay Hesus ngayon! Roma 6:23

“Kung ipahahayag ng iyong bibig na si Hesus ay Panginoon at mananam-palataya ka nang buong puso na Siya’y muling binuhay ng Diyos, ikaw ay maliligtas”. Roma 10:9

1. Aminin mo na ikaw ay isang makasalanan. Roma 3:102. Talikuran mo ang iyong kasalanan (magsisi).

Gawa 17:303. Manampalataya ka na si Kristo Hesus ay namatay

para sa iyo, nalibing at nabuhay namagmuli. Roma 10:9-10

4. Sa pamamagitan ng panalangin, tanggapin mo si Hesus sa iyong puso bilang iyong Tagapagligtas.

Roma 10:13

MANALANGIN KA NG GANITOPanginoon, ako po ay isang makasalanan at nangangailangan ng kapatawaran. Nanampalataya po ako na nadanak ang dugo ni Hesus at Siya ay namatay sa krus para sa akin. Tinatalikuran ko na po ang aking mga kasalanan. Tinatanggap ko po si Kristo Hesus sa aking puso bilang aking Tagapagligtas. Amen.

"Kung tinanggap mo si Hesus bilang iyong Tagapagligtas, ito na ang simula ng iyong bagong buhay kay Kristo." Roma 8:1

Ngayon:1. Basahin mo ang iyong Biblia araw-araw upang makilala

pa ng lubusan si Kristo Hesus. 2. Makipag-usap ka sa Diyos sa panalangin araw-araw. 3. Manambahan ka sa isang simbahan na pinapangaral

si Kristo at ang Biblia ang tanging pamantayan.4. Ibahagi sa iba si Kristo Hesus.

Ayon sA BiBliA, iisA lAmAng Ang DAAn PAtungong lAngit!
