How To Get Your Prayers Answered.

Posted by Bill and Teddy Rogers on August 14, 2017 at 1:36pm

Have You Ever Wondered, "Why Doesn't God Answer My Prayers?"

Remember, prayer is simply talking to God. God wants to be our friend and He wants us to feel comfortable talking to Him.

BUT MAKE NO MISTAKE. You have no reason to expect real answers to your prayers unless you pray to the one true God and ask according to His will.

1 Corinthians 8:5-6 (NIV) says “For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as indeed there are many “gods” and many “lords”), yet for us there is but one God, the Father, from whom all things came and for whom we live; and there is but one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom all things came and through whom we live.”

1. Have Faith In God.

I had the meanest mother in the world. While other kids had candy for breakfast, I had to eat cereal, eggs and toast. While other kids had cokes and candy for lunch, I had a sandwich. As you can guess, my dinner was different from other kids’ dinner, too.

Do You Want To Go To Hell?

Posted by Bill and Teddy Rogers on June 5, 2017 at 7:26am

If so, it’s easy and the road is wide! All you have to do is continue living your life as you are now rejecting Jesus (God’s Free Gift Of Salvation).

However, if you would prefer to go to Heaven, according to the Bible (God’s Inerrant Word), there is only one way!

John 14:6 (NIV) says “Jesus answered, ‘I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.’”

WHERE WILL YOU SPEND ETERNITY?
