Religion Saves No One: A Scrapbook Ministry Message

Recently Ken had the opportunity to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ to a group at our church's Scrapbook Ministry. We praise God for each opportunity to share the glorious Gospel of Christ.


The message was to show the true Gospel and that it is the power of God unto salvation verses the experience of religion. Having "head knowledge" of the life, death, and resurrection of Christ, does not get you into heaven. Anyone can mentally agree with the facts, but there is a huge difference that comes in true saving faith with repentance. We aren't saved by mere words or religious works, but by grace through faith, which is a gift from God.


As you listen to Ken’s message, examine your own conversion story and beliefs to see if you have had that impact with the One true and living God!


Was there any change or did you just add religion to your life? Do you just blend in with the world or are your renewing your mind in the Word of God!


"Therefore if anyone is in Christ, {he is} a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come." (2 Corinthians 5:17)

“He saved us, not on the basis of deeds which we have done in righteousness, but according to His mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit, whom He poured out upon us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior,” (Titus 3:5-6)


May the LORD bless you as you listen to this message.


To Him alone be the Glory,

Josh shares the Gospel at a Scrapbook Ministry Meeting

Last month Josh had the opportunity to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ at a gathering of Scrapbookers in our church's Scrapbook Ministry. We praise God for men like Josh who are not afraid to stand up and preach the truth, warning them to flee the wrath that is to come, and fly to Christ, for it is in Him and Him alone that salvation is found.

As you listen to Josh's message, examine yourself, see that you are in the faith. Could it be that you yourself have entered in through the wide gate? Better to find out now than on the day of Judgment.

“Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few. Matthew 7:13-14


May the LORD bless you as you listen to this message.
