We are now on the last four months of this year and yet we

still have much to accomplish. Involvement of many is still a big

challenge to us. May we not allow these remaining months to

pass without making a resolution to involve. God's word is still

challenging us and His work is still calling for every member’s help.

Involvement in God's work will truly be enjoyed when done

with passion or dedication. It is not a one day responsibility, a

Sunday service requirement or a leftover pastime. Sometimes, we

may have to sacrifice some of our leisure time so we can involve.

As we tackle that topic this month, we must allow God to put

passion in us to be used in His work. Then, when our missions

conference comes up next month, we will truly understand why

there are missionaries who give not just time, but whole life for

God's work.

God is great for giving us another Sunday. Let us worship him

together today and be blessed with His word!

Grandparents' Sunday September 9

Few can bring the warmth we can find in their embraceAnd little more is needed to bring love than the smile on their face They have a supply of precious stories yet they have time to wipe a tear Or give us reasons to make us laugh they grow more precious through the years I believe that God sent us Grandparents as our legacy from above To share the moments of our life as extra measures of His love

Let us make this Sunday special to them.

Invite them to church!CBBC Choir Mission Trip to Cavite

In line with our Mission Conference theme, “A Heart for God; A Vision for the World,” the CBBC had a mission trip to Christian Bible Baptist Church-Dasmariñas Outreach under Preacher Reygan Bañaga and also in Christian Bible Baptist Mission-Noveleta under Preacher Ryan Porcioncula with the purpose of soulwinning and widening the vision of every choir members regarding missions. It was indeed a blessing to have a whole day soulwinning activity with more than 70 soulwinners.

Upon arrival in Dasmariñas Preacher Reygan chal-lenged the soulwinners with a short devotion on “A happy choir member is a good soulwinner” based Proverbs 11:30. After two hours of soulwinning, the choir, together with the outreach members, won a total of 807 souls won to the Lord. Then they had a great fellowship and lunch with the CBBC Dasma outreach rendering a choir song accompanied by an orchestra consisting of violins, flutes, and piano. In the after-noon, the choir led 410 souls in Noveleta. Before leaving, the choir gave their love gifts for the preachers and preachers’ wives. It was indeed a great day with great food, great fellow-ship, but the greatest is leading 1,217 souls to the Lord that day. To God be the Glory!

All men from college to adult class are enjoined to attend a special session planned, prepared and prayed for the equipping and enhancement of men’s servant leadership skills for the glory of God. Enrolment fee is P100.00. The class starts this 3:00 pm.

LORD, THANK YOU FOR GIVING ME YOUR TIMEBeata Agustin

Lord, thank You for giving me Your time that’s eternalSuch is Your everlasting life-gift beyond what’s temporalMaking my salvation assured midst those earthly carnal

For me to redeem every moment with Your way’s light against happenings so ephemeral.

Lord, thank You for giving me Your time that’s victory-appointedSuch is Your leading authority constantly heaven-oriented

Making my satisfaction fulfilled midst those materially-grantedFor me to enjoy every minute by Your will’s glory against entertainments so sin-blighted.

Lord, thank You for giving me Your time that’s preciousSuch is Your prevailing presence of which I’m conscious

Making my spirit glad midst those worldly anxiousFor me to use every hour along Your wisdom’s truth against follies so ferocious.

Lord, thank You for giving me Your time that’s enduringSuch is Your unfailing mercy to guard my convictions while perseveringMaking my steadfastness firm midst those complacently surrendering

For me to maximize every day thru Your watching’s guidance against vanities so erring.

Lord, thank You for giving me Your time that’s valuableSuch is Your communing fellowship always available

Making my soul prayerful midst those arrogantly gullibleFor me to spend every week for Your worship’s praise against leisures so abominable.

Lord, thank You for giving me Your time that’s faith-increasingSuch is Your strengthening trial toward maturity-pressing

Making my saintliness radiant midst those humanistically appeasingFor me to optimize every month upon Your word’s study against falsities so displeasing.

Lord, thank You for giving me Your time that’s pricelessSuch is Your blessing grace, truly bountifully endless

Making my service abounding midst those selfishly carelessFor me to invest every year in Your work’s growth against pleasures so fruitless.

“BIG Friday”, this is one of the highlights of the Baptist Youth Campus Ministry. It aims to bring the students to church, win their souls to Christ, and motivate the members and new converts to involve in this ministry.Through the theme “Follow Me as I Follow Christ”, we encourage the members especially the young people to invite their classmates and schoolmates. This will also make them involve in meetings, prayer vigils, and Soulwinning schedules held in their school campuses.

The Lord’s blessings upon us are more than millions of pesos. In fact, the Bible asserts that the Lord has “blessed us with all spiritual blessings” which are exceedingly enriching. With such enormous wealth, God is asking us to share an amount to complete our PI,000,000.00 commitment for His mission work. Let us be a blessing by giving our part.

Maaari Mong Matiyak ang LangitAng 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 impiyerno. Magtiwala ka kay Hesus ngayon! Roma 6:23

“Kung ipahahayag ng iyong bibig na si Hesus ay Panginoon at mananampalataya 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. Magsisi ka sa iyong kasalanan. Gawa 17:303. Manampalataya ka na si Kristo Hesus ay namatay para sa iyo, nalibing at nabuhay namagmuli. Roma 10:9-104. Sa pamamagitan ng panalangin, tanggapin mo si Hesus sa iyong puso bilang iyong Tagapagligtas. Roma 10:13

Manalangin ka ng ganito:Panginoon, ako po ay isang makasalanan at nangangailangan ng kapatawaran. Nanampalataya po ako na nadanak ng dugo ni Hesus at Siya ay namatay sa krus para sa akin. Nagsisisi po ako sa 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.
