Jesus Christ forgave my sins!

My name is Isaac Serafino. The Son of God, Jesus, came to pay the price to set us free from sin. He said in His True Word the Bible:
If you confess the Lord Jesus with your mouth, and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.
My personal experience has been that Jesus has loved me and had great mercy on me.
Even though I grew up believing in Jesus Christ, I acted like His enemy. I was scared of the judgment of death and destruction that I knew I'd receive for my sins. However, no matter how I tried to stop myself from sinning, I kept doing it again. When I read my Bible, the Lord showed me that I should admit my sins instead of hiding them. I talked to God just like you would talk to another person. I said something like,
Dear heavenly father, these things are sin, and it's my fault, please forgive me. Please give me strength to admit them and not do them any more. In Jesus' name, Amen.
I found the Lord Jesus to be so good and true. He has changed my heart. I want to invite you to believe that He's true, and to talk to Him to ask Him to save you. If you trust Him, it's not complicated to pray. You can even just say something like:
True God, please save my soul from Hell, in your Son the Lord Jesus' name I pray, Amen.

My friend Jesus hasn't ever let me down, and I know He'll hear you too.


Here is the printable (PDF) file to hand out. Please feel free to download and distribute the file. You can print it out and fold it up. Then you can tell people your friend Isaac wrote it, and hand it out to them to share how to be saved by believing in Jesus.

How to fold it up after you print it:

  1. Fold it in half first, the top back down around to the bottom
  2. Fold it in half one more time, this time from side-to-side

Have you ever seen...

Isaiah 43:21
This people have I formed for myself; they shall shew forth my praise.

Have you ever been to The Meeting Place?

Have you ever stood together in the great crowd of people, singing, and praying with them?

Have you ever heard joy-filled the voices of brothers and sisters in Christ, raised freely, in sincere adoration?

Have you ever felt the Presence of God and His Holy Spirit, known the Peace, been filled with His Righteousness, and had the Hope to see His face?

Look now.

Where are the voices? Where are the faces? Where are the smiles? Where's the zeal, the joy, and the Love? It's all so homesick, so lonely, so sorrowful, so bitter, so cold, and so dead! Maybe you've never been there.

I have. I've had a taste of heaven, and I'll never look. Despite my own sins, I've caught a glimpse of something exceedingly great, and I've just begun to enter in. Though none go with me, still I will follow- no turning back.

We've forsaken one another, slid back, and forgotten our First Love!

Who will carry the torch of His Testimony?

Will we let His royal banner fall, battered, in the dust, and look the other way? Yes, and we have, haven't we? But He never will.

He has a plan to do a great work, in His people, His Bride, today, on the earth! He's looking for those who groan in their hearts, with the exceeding great pain, of the House, now completely desolate and forsaken. Heed the call. Take the torch. Lift the flag. Raise the standard! Shout it out. Don't refrain for a moment, the all-mighty message, if you dare to believe it!

Doesn't a calling from him continue to whisper, naggingly in your cold heart?

REPENT!

The Chosen Servant isn't Cast Away

Isaiah 41:10
Fear thou not; for I [am] with thee: be not dismayed; for I [am] thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.

I Have Heard Thy Prayer

Isaiah 38:5
Go, and say to Hezekiah, Thus saith the LORD, the God of David thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will add unto thy days fifteen years.

This seemed hopeless- the Lord had spoken, and said what He was going to do. Hezekiah was going to die from his sickness. He wasn't going to live.

What was his reaction to the hopeless seeming thing, that was overwhelming him?

Did he just say, fine, that's the way it is? No, and it's a good thing.

He prayed to the Lord.

The enemy tries to deceive us into thinking that the difficult times we try to do what's right, won't do any good. Does the Lord know, does He remember, that I've been doing my best for Him?

Oh, yes! He sends His Word, just specially, to me personally.

Be comforted- He says, "I have heard thy prayer", and "I have seen thy tears". He will add to our days, and deliver us, and defend us, and He will do a great and mighty thing, which is better than we ever thought!

Spread it Out Before the Lord

Isaiah 37:14
And Hezekiah received the letter from the hand of the messengers, and read it: and Hezekiah went up unto the house of the LORD, and spread it before the LORD.

Hezekiah knew just what to do when he was in trouble. He went right to the Lord in prayer.

If you ever receive a problem that's too much for you, just take it and spread it out before the Lord.

Isaiah 37:35
For I will defend this city to save it for mine own sake, and for my servant David's sake.

Jesus is Greater Than false "gods."

Isaiah 36:20
Who [are they] among all the gods of these lands, that have delivered their land out of my hand, that the LORD should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand?

Jesus isn't just another humanly invented idol.

None of the idols could deliver their nations from Sennacherib, the king of Assyria. Still, he made a big mistake when he thought that The LORD was just like the rest of them. What blasphemy! It was the Lord who used Assyria to judge those nations in the first place.

There's a great old hymn, that says, "All for Jesus, all for Jesus." Are all your thoughts for Him? "All my thoughts and words and doings. All my days and all my hours." Are your words and doings more for the creature and your own imaginations, or for the creator? How do you spend your time? "Since my eyes were fixed on Jesus, I've lost sight of all beside." Have you lost sight of all besides Jesus?

There's another hymn that says "Take my voice, and let me sing always, only, for my King." Is everything you ever sing only for your King?

Songs of Everlasting Joy

Isaiah 35:10
And the ransomed of the LORD shall return, and come to Zion with songs and everlasting joy upon their heads: they shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.

What is the glory of the Lord and the excellency of our God- so that we can look forward to seeing Him?

There's a Holy Highway for the ransomed, to the Streams in the Desert.

We will shout, and sing, since we have been redeemed!


The Fury of The Lord

Isaiah 34:2
For the indignation of the LORD [is] upon all nations, and [his] fury upon all their armies: he hath utterly destroyed them, he hath delivered them to the slaughter.

Repent! The kingdom of heaven is at hand!

In God's wonderful, loving mercy, he has given you a way of salvation, today, before it's too late.

Whoever's name isn't written in the Lamb's book of life, will be deceived into worshiping #666. Whoever worships him will be cast into the lake of fire.

Jesus will come back after we, His people, go into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He's being patient and longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.


Revelation 20:15
And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

Christ Died to Save Sinners

Isaiah 33:22
For the LORD [is] our judge, the LORD [is] our lawgiver, the LORD [is] our king; he will save us.
If you come to the Lord, He will forgive your sins!

This is what love is: Not that we loved the Lord, but that He Loved us. We love Jesus because He loved us first. While we're still sinners, He came to save us!

How can we Love Him? Can we Love Him? Yes, we can! The way to Love Him, is to believe on Him, and to Love one another.

Ephesians 5:1,2:

Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children;
And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour.

A Sure Defense

Isaiah 31:5
As birds flying, so will the LORD of hosts defend Jerusalem; defending also he will deliver [it; and] passing over he will preserve it.
The Lord will never call back His Words! Once the Lord has spoken, and promised good to His people, He will certainly come and reward us.

Trust in The Lord

Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding.

Demise of the Antichrists

Isaiah 25:8

He will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord GOD will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the rebuke of his people shall he take away from off all the earth: for the LORD hath spoken [it].
There will be death, tears, and rebuke for us until Jesus comes. Wicked men will be exalted and rule until that day.

We have many enemies in the world, called antichrists. They teach against the Truth of the God's Word, which we teach by His Holy Spirit.

Our enemy the devil is angry with Israel and Believers because Israel brought forth Jesus Christ, and we believers have the Word of His Testimony. Jesus has given the devil the mortal wound in his head, and will bind him for a millennium, and will cast him into the lake of fire in the judgment at the end.

In his anger, Satan has declared war on Jews and Christians. Don't fall for any of the lie that "This isn't a religious war." Terrorists in Iraq are killing many Believers for Our Faith. Terrorists are killing Jews in Israel. As I type this, secret groups of evil men around the world are plotting the next catastrophic terrorist attacks against the United States because of our nation's support of Jews and Testimony for Jesus Christ.

Our enemy has three methods of warfare: Stealing, Killing, and Destroying.

Don't lay up earthly treasure he can steal and destroy. Instead lay up your eternal treasure with the Lord.

Sometimes our enemy and his servants are allowed to destroy and kill our bodies, but fear God instead of them, because God can destroy the soul and body in Hell.

Whoever has believed on the Lord Jesus has everlasting life for his soul, and will never perish in Hell! We will overcome our enemies as we keep the Lord's Word and Testimony to the death instead of loving our own lives.

You can tell antichrists today because they teach the false prophecies like the book of mormon, the new world "translation", the apocrypha, and the koran.

Turn to Jesus. If you come to Jesus, there's no way he'll throw you out!

Fear not, because Jesus Christ Himself is on His way back. He's coming quickly. All of us who suffer with Him will also reign with Him. Our sufferings today are nothing in comparison with the glory that'll be revealed.


First, it'll get a lot worse. The earth will be crawling with deceivers. They will have power to work all mighty signs and wonders to deceive all the unsaved. A single evil man (#666) will take over the entire world, and pretend to be God. Whoever doesn't worship him will be brutally killed.

But then the sound of the trumpet will be heard, and a shout. Jesus will descend from the heavens from in a cloud. The voice of the archangel will cry out. The stars will fall out of the sky! The earth will shake and the rocks and mountains will be torn in pieces! With the Lord will come His armies, and all Christians will meet Him in the air. He will bring us back with Him, and the time to kill will come. We will dash the nations in pieces with a rod of iron!

Oh, the incredible victory, that I don't have either the time or the understanding to fully describe!

Be ready.

The Pride Of Silence

Isaiah 24:14

They shall lift up their voice, they shall sing for the majesty of the LORD, they shall cry aloud from the sea.
The Lord will punish all of the big shots on the earth.

You know that it would be wrong for you to arrogantly exclaim, "I'm the one, and there's nobody else like me!" Did you ever stop to think about how you could be arrogant without saying a word?

It's true. You can make yourself into a big cheese without coming right out and saying it. As a matter of fact, that how the biggest big shots always do it, isn't it? What they don't say speaks much louder than what they do say. They infer that they're great through their actions.

Don't be like that. Be meek. Give the Lord the credit.

Especially, watch out for people like that. Don't trust them. Beware not to just believe their counsel. Don't take my word for it- click on the links to see what God has to say about it in His Word.

To Stain the Pride

Isaiah 23:9
The LORD of hosts hath purposed it, to stain the pride of all glory, [and] to bring into contempt all the honourable of the earth.

Why do such terrible things* happen to the nations? We are proud, knowing nothing, who make ourselves like God, and forget that the Lord of Hosts, the God of Israel is The Only Potentate.

We must fall on our knees and worship Jesus, with our whole hearts, as the Only True God. Those who refuse to do so today will end up doing so the hard way.
