Christian Homepage

If you find yourself viewing this Homepage...it may very well be that the Holy Spirit has placed it upon your heart to be here at this moment.
My name is Bob Lewis and I have been a Christian since 1949.
I was 9 years old when I accepted Christ as my Lord and Saviorand asked Him to come into my heart and take control of my life.
He never promised any Christian or me a "bed of roses". WhatHe DID promise is Eternal Life with Him in Heaven and that Hewould walk with us while here on earth if we will only admitthat you are a sinner, ask forgiveness for your sins, acceptHim as our personal Lord and Savior, and commit yourself tofollowing Him. That's what I have found...He is ALWAYS there. Knowing that gives you great peace of mind.
The road to Heaven starts for all people: Rich/Poor; Tall/Short;Weak/Strong at the same place...the foot of the Cross thatJesus died on for our sins.
See...2,000 years ago, God sent His Holy Spirit to this Earth tocome upon the Virgin Mary. He caused her to bear a Son namedJesus.
He lived a perfectly sinless life for the entire time He livedon this Earth.
He performed many miracles, all documented in The Holy Bible: Hechanged water to wine at a wedding feast; He made the blindto see, the deaf to hear, the dumb to speak and the lame to walk;He fed 4,000people on a small amount of bread and fish once and 5,000 plustheir wives and children another time; He walked on water;He calmed the angry sea with His command; He healed lepers;He caused a coin to be in a fishes' mouth straight out of thesea so The Disciples could paytheir taxes; He raised Lazarus from the dead after Lazarushad been in a tomb in Bethany forfour days...and most importantly...Christ died an AtoningDeath for our sins on the Crossat Calvary 2,000 years ago so that you and I could go toHeaven.
He also was buried in a tomb on that day but rose from the deadthree days later. That is the day we all call Easter!
If He hadn't done this, we would be hopeless. Therewould be no way for us to get intoHeaven where He is preparing a place for us right now. ALL sinMUST be paid for! If you accept Christ as your Lord and Saviorthen YOUR sins are bought and paid for by His Death, Burial andResurrection. If you choose to NOT accept Him, then YOU haveto pay the price... by being thrown into the lake of fire, for Eternity on Judgement Day.
Its SO SIMPLE! Almost as simple as the billions of people whorefused to believe Noah that there was going to be a flood.They refused to get on the boat! For us, Christ is The Boat.He has VERY BROAD SHOULDERS! Believe on Him, PLEASE!He made at least ten appearances to over 500 people afterHis resurrection. Many of themwere subjected to unbelievable torture to try and getthem to renounce their Testimony of
His resurrection from the dead. None did!
Within a few days after His resurrection, He ascendedinto the Heavens on a cloud while onthe road to Bethany. Fifty days later, The HolySpirit, whom The Lord promised would besent, descended on a group of believers in Jerusalem.
The Holy Spirit's arrival completed the Trinity of:God, Our Father; Jesus Christ, Our Savior andThe Holy Spirit, Our Counselor.
You can be a Christian and get into Heaven if youwill pray to God that:
1) You know you are a sinner, (a sin is anythingthat is against the Will of God)
2) Confess your sins to Him,
3) Ask Him for forgiveness for your sins,
4) Ask Jesus to come into your heart as Savior andLord and take control of your life, and
5) Ask all these things in Jesus' Holy Name.
If you can say the above prayer sincerely and mean it,you will go to Heaven because Hesaid while He was here on Earth that He wasThe Way, the Truth and the Light and no onecomes to the Father except by Him.
By saying the above prayer, you have gone to theFather through Jesus.
You have your ticket. No one can take it away...just as no one can ever change the factthat your parents are your parents... and no onecan change that fact... once you acceptChrist as your Savior, no one can alter that fact.
You are His forever! Eternally! You need have nofear of death. When you die, your spiritwill immediately be in the presence of the Lord.
If you die without having accepted Christ as yourpersonal Savior, you will go to Hell forEternity where you will be held in an isolatedcell until Judgement Day, more on this later.
One other possibility is that the Lord couldreturn before you die, in which case, if youare a Christian, you will rise to meet Him inthe air with all other living Christians tobe with Him in Heaven for all of Eternity.
Alternatively, and here is the bad news thatyou have to know and believe:
If you die or if the Lord comes again beforeyou die and you have NOT accepted Christas your personal Savior, your options expire!
You will go to Hell for Eternity, just as ifyou had died without accepting Him, whereyou will be held in an isolated cell untilJudgement Day which will come 1,007 yearsafter the Lord comes again to get allChristians (The Rapture).
On that Day, unless you have accepted Christas your personal Savior, you will bebrought before God, The Father, found guiltyof never having admitted to being asinner, never having accepted Christ, His Son,as your personal Lord and Saviorand you will be thrown by mighty Angels intothe Lake of Fire for Eternity (Pleasesee Revelations, the last Book in the Holy Bible).See, ALL sinners are condemnedto death and eventually Hell, unless the pricehas been paid... and for Christians, Jesus paidthe price!.
The ONLY way to remove God, The Father's wrathagainst YOU is to accept His Only BegottenSon, Jesus Christ (John 3:16) as your personalLord and Savior because He has paid the price ofyour sins with His Blood!.
There is NO other way! No Christian will evenbe brought before God on this greatJudgement Day. Only those who have NOT acceptedChrist as their Savior.
Another very important point to remember is:If you ARE a Christian at that time,you will be looking over Christ's shoulder atthose who are condemned to the lakeof fire for eternity and MAY see them gaze atyou as they are carried off askingwhy you never told them about Jesus.
Please don't let the blood of a friend,relative or loved one be on your hands atthat time. Here and now, if you have doubtsabout someone's Salvation, tell themabout our Jesus. It would be better for youto assume someone is lost, tell themabout Jesus and find out they are alreadySaved... than to assume they are Saved,and them be lost.
How long is Eternity? Imagine a little dovesitting on the moon.
Imagine the Earth to be a solid marble ball.Every 100 years the little dove fliesto Earth and barely touches one of its wingsto the solid marble ball.
By the time the dove has worn the ball to thesize of a little marble... Eternitywould have just begun!

PS: Please let me add this note from a friendregarding helping others. It touched my heartand I hope it will yours... and maybe you knowsome one that needs to hear/read this:
"Anxiety in the heart of man causes depression,but a good word makes it glad."
-- Proverbs 12:25 (NKJV)"I have mentioned this in the past and it israther sad when you consider what great comfortsand freedoms we enjoy here in America, but thecurrent costs for treatment of depression relatedillnesses now exceeds the costs for the treatmentof alcohol and drug abuse combined.And much of the alcohol and drug problems are aresult of, you guessed it, depression.King Solomon tells us that anxiety in the heartof man causes depression.And anxiety is a powerful thing, as is vividlydefined by Webster this way, "Concern respectingsome uncertain thing, or event or future, whichdisturbs the mind, and keeps it in a state ofpainful uneasiness."I think that Solomon provides an easy, inexpensiveantidote for treating depression, encouraging wordsto make the heart glad. A word in due season.
"The problem with us human beings is that we areoft times so self-absorbed that we do not recognizewhen a friend, or family member, or neighbor, orco-worker needs our support and encouragement.We are too busy, or we are wrapped up in our ownproblems, or we just don't care. Depression breaksthe human spirit (a deep sadness if you're therenow or have been there before) and that leads to adefeated life.Many a broken spirit is compounded by a life thatis devoid of a personal relationship with the Lord.The fact is, we only need God (His Grace issufficient), but add frequent cheerful wordsof encouragement from someone who cares andthe recovery will be quick and complete.Today, may God grant you the wisdom to knowwhere you can help prevent or mend a brokenspirit and make a heart glad!
"A merry heart makes a cheerful countenance,but by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken."-- Proverbs 15:13 (NKJV)
One more message I would like to leave with you from Jerry Falwell at Christmas time: DATE: December 19, 2002 FROM: Jerry Falwell THE MIRACLE OF CHRISTMAS "... for it is good to be children sometimes, and never better than at Christmas, when its mighty Founder was a child himself." - Charles Dickens Have you ever wondered what is was like for Jesus to leave the inexpressible majesty of heaven to come to a sin-ravaged earth to be born as a man? Even if he had chosen to be born in a grand palace, it would have paled to the perfection and sheer beauty of heaven. But Christ chose to be born in a lowly manger. And he was born into a period of utter chaos and hatred toward Him. In fact, the evil King Herod who controlled the world into which Jesus entered was a tyrant for the ages. So consumed with power was this king that he ordered the deaths of all the baby boys up to two years old in and around Bethlehem. So Herod, understanding that the biblical prophecy of the Christ had been fulfilled, sent soldiers throughout the area to murder innocent babies in hopes that one would be Jesus. This was not an unusual act for this despot. Herod had, according to the Jewish historian Josephus, killed off advisers, military leaders and even three of his own sons. Murder was in his blood. However, Jesus was not subject to the evil authority of King Herod. You see, this little baby in the manger had an appointed target with death that had been prearranged before time began. Jesus was to minister on this corrupt earth for 33 years before facing ultimate rejection by those He came to save. The shadow of the Cross on which He would die eclipsed every moment of Jesus' life because it was His ultimate destiny. Herod could not prevent that God-ordained appointment. Like Herod, though, murder would soon be in the blood of many in regard to Jesus. But let's return to the stable of His birth where we see Mary embracing her precious son, knowing that she was indeed holding the Savior of the world. Mary had been told by an angel that she would give birth to Jesus, even though she had not known a man. And He had arrived, as foretold. Dr. Ed Hindson, dean of the Institute of Biblical Studies at Liberty University, said the Virgin Birth is a terribly important factor in the birth of Christ. "The doctrine of the Virgin Birth is inseparably related to the concept of the Incarnation of Christ," he said. "The incarnation means that God became fully human without ceasing to be fully divine. His incarnation at once affirms both the deity and humanity of Christ." Christ had come to the world! And so an announcement was in order. In nearby fields, where shepherds attended their flocks, an angel directed these humble men to the stable to worship the new King. Sometime later, a heaven-placed star guided wise men to the Savior. This is significant because it signifies that Jesus was born to save all men - from seemingly insignificant shepherds to important men. I have often imagined that beautiful star in the heavens leading the wise men to Jesus. What a beautiful picture it is. As the old song says: Oh Beautiful Star Of Bethlehem Shining afar through shadows dim Giving the life for those who long have gone And guiding the wise men on their way Unto the place where Jesus lay Beautiful Star Of Bethlehem shine on. My friends, the light of Jesus shines brightly still today. This politically-correct world turns more from Him seemingly by the day by banning His name in the classroom, outlawing His Word in the public square and frequently mocking him on television and in the movies. But our modern-day Herods cannot silence Him. He remains the King of kings and Lord of lords and extends His salvation to all - even those who scoff at Him The Christmas story is as significant today as it was 2000 years ago.

And wise men still believe in Him!Be encouraged, be hopeful, have a blessed day!
