&lt;H2&gt;&lt;SPAN style=&quot;BACKGROUND-COLOR: #faffa9&quot;&gt;&lt;SPAN style=&quot;COLOR: #ff0000&quot;&gt;GOSPEL OF WATER AND SPIRIT&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/H2&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
All through the NLM blog you have read my beloved co-workers have written about The True Gospel that give redemption from sins completely. Every truly Born again work and strive hard to bring out the Gospel to the millions. Let this blog too bring you to the proper understanding of the Word of God. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Bible, the Holy book of God contains only one Gospel. Faith in the Word of God comes through hearing the word of God. Theologians teach many. But it is we as sons of our Father to decide and accept, if it is abiding by the Word of God. &lt;br /&gt;Human beings are created by God and many love him, praise him, worship him and some do not. We can live as we like in this world either for God or for ourselves. We live for ourselves to fill up our worldly desires forgetting God or not having the time to think of God. It’s only at the time of Old age, Sickness, fear and loneliness we think of God. We can live for God only when we realise and believe in the mighty power of God and his passionate love for us. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why don&#039;t most people love God or either loves him sometimes and at other times forget him. Yes, we know it’s due to the lack of Faith. For faith to be proper our lives must abide with the Word of God. Everyone abides with the word of God by living a Good Life, but everyone fails badly. None can seem to live righteously, the problem is their sins. Human beings are confused on the issue of solving sins, ideas upon ideas and discussions upon discussion have failed to resolve sins. Why? &lt;br /&gt;To find answers to the numerous questions in our mind, God has given us his Word. The Word of God has the Law, to live by the Law is a good thing provided we do not break it. Galatians 3:10 says A curse is on everyone who does not keep on doing all the things which are ordered in the book of the law, and further it says the upright will live by faith. So why was the law then? Reading through the book of Romans, Ch 3:20 say that through the law comes the knowledge of Sin. &lt;br /&gt;You can now see that God knows that you can’t live a righteous life with the law. The law teaches you and helps you to realise that we all are equally sinners. We are the children of Adam and Eve sin has been there in us from our birth. Through the books of Isaiah, Romans, Hebrews we can see that human beings are just hopeless sinners. Ecc 7:20 says there is no man on earth of such righteousness that he does good and is free from sin all his days. Similarly Mark 7:20-23 shows that human beings have evil thoughts, deceit, evil eye, anger, pride, foolishness and further God says these come from within a man. So it has been there all the time. People hardly realise and that makes it difficult for them to accept that they have all these in them. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;H4&gt;
&lt;DIV style=&quot;TEXT-ALIGN: center&quot;&gt;We are Sinners&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;/H4&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If the word of God says so, then we have to accept that we are sinners. Sin is to disobey the Word of God and we can never completely obey him. At some point on the occasion of a good circumstance sin comes to play. And the result of sin is Death. Paul in the books of Romans gives us answers to our problems of Sin. Paul wrote &lt;EM&gt;.&quot;or do you not know, brethren (for I speak to those who know the law), that the law has dominion over a man as long as he lives?.(Romans 7:1)&lt;/EM&gt;. So we who know the law should realise that the law reigns over a man till his death. Paul also wrote. &quot;&lt;EM&gt;O wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death?. (Romans 7:24)&lt;/EM&gt;. and in Romans 7:14-17 he says &lt;EM&gt;&quot;For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am carnal, sold under sin. For what I am doing, I do not understand. For what I will to do, that I do not practice; but what I hate, that I do. If, then, I do what I will not to do, I agree with the law that it is good. But now, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me&quot;&lt;/EM&gt;. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Paul has realised that he is incapable of not sinning. It is the same situation many of us feel. We ask ourselves how can I stop sinning and avoid death. He says that the Law is Spiritual-from God and he is like every human incapable of holding on to the law and he does things which he hates or in other words not according to the Law of God. Again Paul says &lt;EM&gt;&quot;I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, with the mind I myself serve the law of God, but with the flesh the law of sin..&quot; and he also said that &quot;There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.&quot; (Romans 8:1-2)&lt;/EM&gt;. &lt;br /&gt;To understand the above verse and Pauls faith we must understand the verse Romans 6:3&lt;EM&gt;.&quot;As many of us as were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death..&quot;&lt;/EM&gt; This means that by believing in Jesus baptism, we have also been baptized with Him, meaning that we have become united into the death of our Lord. That is, by being baptized in unity through faith, we were spiritually baptized into His death. To be united with the Lord is to be united with His baptism and to die in union with His death. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;H4&gt;
&lt;DIV style=&quot;TEXT-ALIGN: center&quot;&gt;Key To Remission of Sins&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;/H4&gt;By understanding Romans 6:3 and believing in Lords baptism with faith, we should realise that the faith in this baptism of our Lord is the Key to remission of Sins. Today most churches and Pastors give importance to the Cross only, merely considering Baptism as an act. Pauls faith in Lords Baptism shows us how important it is to believe in His baptism. &lt;br /&gt;Paul here says about the Law of Spirit, he refers to the Gospel of water and Spirit or Gospel of Baptism and crucification. We should believe that our bodies have died along with Christ and been resurrected along with Him to be a Born-again. Remember God said unless one is Born again of the water and spirit he shall not enter the kingdom of God. Such was Paul’s faith when he said that with the mind I serve the law of God, but with the flesh, the law of sin. 1 peter 3:21 says &lt;EM&gt;“and baptism, of which this is an image, now gives you salvation, not by washing clean the flesh, but by making you free from the sense of sin before God, through the coming again of Jesus Christ from the dead.”&lt;/EM&gt; We continue to sin even though we are born again. The Gospel makes you free from the sins in your heart, you will have a good conscience, but your flesh (the body) is filthy and continues to sin till your death. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;H4&gt;
&lt;DIV style=&quot;TEXT-ALIGN: center&quot;&gt;Importance of Baptism&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;/H4&gt;Why is Baptism so Important ? The answer can be seen if we read through the Old testament. In the olden times Sins were washed out by sacrificing a Lamb. Leviticus 16:21 says, .Aaron shall lay both his hands on the head of the live goat, confess over it all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their transgressions, concerning all their sins, putting them on the head of the goat, and shall send it away into the wilderness by the hand of a suitable man.. The laying on of hands in the Olden times has a similar meaning in the New Testament. That is the Baptism of Jesus. Only the most Holy priest had an opportunity to lay hands on the Lamb and pass on the sins. Similarly John the Baptist was also one descendant of the Priestly Family. &lt;EM&gt;“Among those born of women there has not risen one greater than John the Baptist” (Matthew 11:11)&lt;/EM&gt;. He too laid his hands on Jesus Baptised him in the Jordan &lt;br /&gt;We should all believe that Jesus Christ, our Lord took upon him all the sins of the world through Baptism and was crucified to give us Salvation.1 John 5:6-8 says that Jesus Christ came by water and blood, not by water only but by water and blood. Without this faith it’s impossible to receive the remission of sins. Lord has taken away all our Sins and it’s all that we should believe in him. Just like Paul believed in Lords salvation we too have to realise that sins are not removed from the body but from the heart. People try to obey the Law and please the flesh but it is of no use. The flesh is always a sinner. It’s by Faith in the gospel of Water and Spirit we are Saved. It’s just a matter of Proper faith at heart. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;H4&gt;
&lt;DIV style=&quot;TEXT-ALIGN: center&quot;&gt;Forgiveness of Sins&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;/H4&gt;People are praying daily for forgiveness of sins without realising that God took away all our sins once and for all. Hebrews 10:11-14 says Jesus made an offering forever John 1:29 says behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world. Then why do you need to ask for forgiveness it’s just like crucifying Christ again. &lt;br /&gt;Lack of proper faith results eternal tormenting in hell. God’s Righteousness is the Love for us and the salvation he has offered us, not through our will or efforts but his mercy and love which is greater than his judgement. Our righteousness is filled with worldly lust and passions and unwanted thoughts. It is our way of thinking that makes us move away from God. We should throw away our righteousness and accept the water and spirit. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;B&gt;
&lt;DIV style=&quot;TEXT-ALIGN: center&quot;&gt;“So Christ was offered once to bear the sins of many. To those who eagerly wait for Him He will appear a second time, apart from sin, for salvation.” Hebrews 9:28&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;/B&gt;</description>

			<title>Antichrist Review</title>
			<link>http://nlmbookcafe.com/blog/jerin/7</link>
			<description>&lt;U&gt;
&lt;DIV style=&quot;PADDING-RIGHT: 10px; PADDING-LEFT: 10px; PADDING-BOTTOM: 10px; PADDING-TOP: 10px; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #faffa9; TEXT-ALIGN: center&quot;&gt;Antichrist&lt;/DIV&gt;The Antichrist&lt;/U&gt; as you all know has been well explained in Revelation. The book of revelation was written by the apostle John, who recorded the revelation of Jesus Christ made to him during his stay in Patmos, an island in the Agean sea to which he was sent in exile in the decling years of the roman empire Domitian’s reign (about A.D 95) The antichrist has been well defined in the book of revelation his activities power and failures are written. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You should be able to imagine and realize the devils power and means to trick the people into his ways so the only way to stand away from him is to walk in the spirit. You should be able to embrace your martyrdom in the end times. God’s revelation is for mankind only. But to understand the revelation you should be a born again believing in the Gospel of Water and Spirit. Firstly you should understand the seven eras set by our God, explained in chapter 6. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The first era is of the era of white horse, referring to the victory of Gospel of Water and Spirit on Earth. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The second era of red horse refers to the advent of Satan. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then comes the black era, where famine strikes both the souls and the bodies of the people. This the era we now live in. after this comes,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The era of pale horse arriving in the near future with the emergence of the antichrist. During this era the earth will be struck of plague of seven trumpets. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The fifth era is the era of saints resurrection and rapture. The sixth era is the destruction of the first world.And finally in the seventh era we receive the millennial kingdom and the new Heaven and earth. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Chapter two of revelation tells us about our own martyrdom. We will have to face martyrdom in the end times when the Antichrist persecutes us. We have to stand in bold faiths. You should understand the one and only everlasting love of our God. On which we can never complain or blame. His love is most everlasting. He gave us the gospel since his love is greater than his judgment. The antichrist has power only on worldly matters. But our Jesus Christ is the most powerful in all realms. His self sacrifice shows us his love for us. We can never abandon our faith in him. His love is the love of salvation. A love we are in desperately in need of. Hence to face the martyrdom is the privilege of every born again. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Regardless of all our shortcomings God loves us. If we don’t preach the true gospel we may lose the holiness in our selves. It is critical for us to defend the gospel of water and spirit. We should have a faith that battles and for that we should discipleship with our God. Our faiths should be bold. Even if you are a born again, if you do not hold on to the faith and preach the gospel, you may end up in a lukewarm faith. Our God is compassionate, yet the most powerful and fierce. The way he describes the plagues are never fancy. You should realize the truth and believe it as absolutely as it is written by the end times all will be filled with fear and confusion. regardless of the religions and castes of the world. But our hearts are with the holy spirit. And will be guided by him. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;&lt;FONT color=#0000ff&gt;So I request all brothers and sisters to make the word of god the essence of your heart and his faith the cream which shall fit you for your eternal survival&lt;/FONT&gt;.&lt;/STRONG&gt; Now since you have understood the basics of Gods revelation you should know more about the time set for us or in other words the time of rapture.The revelation can be divided into seven eras. With your faith in the true gospel. You should be able to understand the seven eras set by our God. The first three eras are of the white, red and black horses respectively. Its during the fourth era, the era of pale horse the seven trumpets sound. An important concept for everyone to realize is the time of rapture of saint. Our rapture would be completed by the time the seventh angel sounds the trumpet. There have been many theories and issues regarding the rapture of saints but they have been practiced without the true knowledge of Gods salvation and hence have turned meaningless. God has revealed the message to only those who believe in his free gift, the beautiful Gospel of water and spirit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

			<title>Holy Spirit Review</title>
			<link>http://nlmbookcafe.com/blog/jerin/6</link>
			<description>&lt;FONT face=&quot;&#039;Times New Roman&#039;,&#039;times&#039;,&#039;serif&#039;&quot; size=3&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;imageblock left&quot; style=&quot;float: left; margin-right: 10px;&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://nlmbookcafe.com/blog/attach/139/1219229010.gif&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; height=&quot;202&quot; width=&quot;152&quot; /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Well here all of you should be well aware of the indwelling of the Holy spirit.&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;EM&gt;The Holy Spirit dwells in the hearts of the born-again, who have been forgiven for all their sins by believing the gospel of the water and the Spirit. Once He comes into a saint, He resides in him forever, and never leaves him as long as he believes in the gospel. He gives conviction to the saints, leads them to know God’s will in the Bible, strengthens them to overcome the temptations and difficulties inherent in this world, and lets them bear the fruits of the Spirit in abundance. God glorifies the body of the saint as the temple of God through the indwelling of the Holy Spirit (Acts 2:38-39, John 14:16,16:8-10, 1 Corinthians 3:16, 6:19, Galatians 5:22-23)&lt;/EM&gt;. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Holy Spirit is a gift given to us from our Father. He resides in us only when we believe in the true gospel of water and spirit. You and I are humans whose deeds are worthless in front of our god. Hence we should realize that the indwelling of the Holy spirit is not of our works. From the moment you take into your heart the true gospel of water and spirit the Holy spirit dwells in you. But to keep him in you, you should continue to feed on the words of God and exist in his everlasting words only. Our faith should never be lukewarm. It is clearly said in the bible that &quot;Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ, for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.&quot; &lt;STRONG&gt;Acts 2:38&lt;/STRONG&gt;. You should believe that the holy spirit comes to rest in you only if you believe in the truth. Genesis 1:2 says &quot;and the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.&quot; Have you ever noticed the verse, &lt;STRONG&gt;Matthew 11:12&lt;/STRONG&gt; &quot;And, from the days of John the Baptist till now, the reign of the heavens doth suffer violence, and violent men do take it by force&quot;. &lt;br /&gt;It clearly tells that if you believe in the true gospel you will be saved. Jesus wants us to enter heaven in bold faiths. It is simple to understand this gospel and take into heart, even though we sin. Here violent men refers to people with bold faith in their hearts, It is important to have a good conscience toward God and such a conscience comes with the faith in the truth and the Holy spirit in you. &lt;br /&gt;Many Christians nowadays try to receive the Holy Spirit with sin in their hearts. The belief that you can receive the indwelling of the holy sprit by confession of sins is wrong. Complete faith in the Gospel of Water and Sprit unites you with the Holy Spirit. There are some who try to receive the Holy Spirit with their own efforts, and others think that God is kind enough, that when they beg for the Holy sprit they receive him. You should camly try to understand the word of God. Some consider that casting out demons and speaking in tongues is the work of the Holy Spirit. It is not necessary that it should be the work of the Holy Spirit. He is calm and peaceful making the souls who have been born again think and work accordingly to the words of God. But it is important for us to feed on these words till our death. After believing in the true Gospel all have been able to have peace in their hearts. Because God works in them. Until you believe, you have sin, and God does not dwell in you. But the moment you take into your heart the beautiful Gospel, we are filled with the presence of God. I am sure like me all born again saints felt this. &lt;br /&gt;But from the moment we forget God, we get disappointed and lost. Hence for the holy spirit to dwell in you, believe and walk in the path of true Gospel. &lt;STRONG&gt;Galatians 5:16&lt;/STRONG&gt; says &quot;Walk in the Spirit, and you will not fulfill the lust of the flesh.&quot; We humans are born with the flesh even when we try to walk in the spirit we are disturbed. God told us to walk in the spirit, meaning to preach the Gospel of Water and Spirit. &lt;STRONG&gt;Galatians 5:17&lt;/STRONG&gt; &quot;For the flesh has desires against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; because these are opposite the one to the other; so that you may not do the things which you have a mind to do.&quot; The flesh lusts against the sprit. The Born again saints are always engaged in a conflict within themselves. The born again having the flesh are disturbed by the passions of the body. But the spirit in their hearts encourage them for the work of God. That&#039;s why god tells us to feed on his word constantly regardless of place and time. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The better we work for God the better our faiths are in him. The better your faith in him the better you will fight the antichrist. Hence the born again have to simply work for God, keeping your faith intact. &lt;STRONG&gt;2 Corinthians 4:16&lt;/STRONG&gt; &quot;For which cause we do not give way to weariness; but though our outer man is getting feebler, our inner man is made new day by day.&quot;What do you think this verse tells you. The more you walk in spirit or the more you work in god you are being filled with faith. Our body is worthless. Even if our body is at its weakest still our hearts never die. Since we believe in the true gospel. To be carnally minded is death. It is difficult even for the born again to perfectly walk in Spirit. We should serve the Gospel of our god and abandon ourselves. Even though we walk in spirit, we are never perfect. Hence deeds done in darkness should be brought to light. When we shed the light of the words of God on ourselves, we become conscious of certain sins and are able to admit them. &lt;/FONT&gt;</description>

			<title>Rev. Paul.C.Jong’s Books have been a great source of spiritual inspiration to me and surely to other brothers too</title>
			<link>http://nlmbookcafe.com/blog/jerin/1</link>
			<description>Rev. Paul.C.Jong’s Books have been a great source of spiritual inspiration to me and surely to other brothers too. Today I am a born again saint. I believe in the Gospel of Water and Spirit. From the moment I started believing in the true Gospel I feel a new energy in me. I started reading the Bible more after realizing the one truth. Before the Knowledge of The Gospel of Water and Spirit I was filled with confusion and fear. I could not pray in faith to God because there was no God with me. But today it is changed I believe and Love my God. He works in me, because I believe in what he has gifted to me. All the saints face small troubles during the spiritual war that they undergo. But we should strive to help the million souls who need the spiritual food. We should not forget our paths to eternal life. I and you should forget the material paths of this world and take upon the spiritual paths. &lt;br /&gt;1 John 2:15-17 &lt;br /&gt;“Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father but is of the world. And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.” So we should abide by our God and work for God. I want to tell the whole world about this Gospel that helped me to renew my life, So I have created online communities where the ones who are seeking the true God can come and also the Born again saints can meet. I hope to make these communities into Large one where many souls can meet. I have noticed communities of various topics growing into large ones. So why can’t I too create a community to spread the gospel of water and spirit? I have created one community in www.orkut.com named ’Newlife Mission” And a Google Group in Google named ‘Newlife Mission’ I request my brothers to join these communities. I have faith that such communities with the help of all saints will grow.&lt;br /&gt;Praise the Lord.&lt;br /&gt;Jerin Rajan, India</description>
