Concerning Unitarian-Oneness(Jesus Only)-Pentecostals

         "But when the Comforter(Helper) is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father,
even the Spirit of truth, which(who) procedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:"
"Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth:?for he
shall not speak of himself(on His own authority); but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall
he speak:?and he will shew you things to come."?"Sanctify them through thy truth:
thy word is truth."?John 15:26; 16:13; 17:17;KJV(NewKJV)

         Unitarian-Oneness(Jesus Only)-Pentecostals are pseudo-Christian(false) cults, for they
teach the following unscriptural doctrines.

         1.That Jesus Christ alone is God.No Trinity.
?
         2.That the Holy Ghost is not a third person of the Godhead. They call Him an it.

           (Read Matt. 28:19; Mark 1:10,11; Acts 7:55,56; Col. 2:9; I John 5:6-8, KJV).

         3.?That you must be water baptized by immersion in the name
of the Lord Jesus Christ only, to be saved.

         4.That you must "get the Holy Ghost with the evidence of?tongues", to be saved.

          (Read Acts 2:21; 16:31; Rom. 10:9-13; Eph. 2:4-9).

         5.That they teach the only true Christian doctrine.?They claim they have a new
revelation from God.

         6.That theirs is the only true Christian church.

         They are also very legalistic.

         These are all lies, "and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise." Prov. 20:1b.
?
         Any true Christian will not believe or teach such false doctrines.

         To attend the services of a false cult, is to put yourself into spiritual danger.
(Read I John 4:1; & II John 7-11).

Includes the following bodies:

         "Apostolic Overcoming Holy Church of God";

         "Bible Way Church of Our Lord Jesus Christ, World Wide, Inc.";

         "Church of Our Lord Jesus Christ of the Apostolic Faith, Inc.";

         "Pentecostal Assemblies of the World, Inc.";

         "United Pentecostal Church, International";

         "Apostolic Church of Pentecost of Canada";

         and possibly some independent "full gospel" bodies.

The Complete Human

         The people out in the world who don't have Christ and His Spirit
in their lives aren't the real, true, full, complete men and women that
God intended us to be.?But those of us who do have Christ and His
Spirit, we are.

         The reason is that the spiritual part of their being is dead,
so therefore they aren't walking in the full image of God.

         The bible says that when God created man, He created him in His
image; He created man like Himself, a triune being- spirit, soul,
and body.

         When Adam and Eve sinned and fell from grace, the spiritual
part of man died and from then on all humans were destined to be born
spiritually dead.

         When we accept the gift of salvation our spirits are reborn
through the power of Christ's shed blood and His Holy Spirit, then we
have the ability to be what God created us to be.

         Then when we receive the second blessing experience (second
work of grace, fullness of the Spirit, Holy Spirit baptism), we receive
the full spiritual power that God intends for us to have.?As we
continue to walk with God in the power of His Spirit, He will show us
more and more how to be what He created us to be.

         So if you don't have Christ and His Holy Spirit in your life, I
strongly encourage you to call on God and receive all that He has for
you.?Then you can start being what He has created you to be.? I pray to
God that you don't delay.

         May the glory of the Spirit of God be seen in you, now and
forever.?Amen. (J.O.L.O.Ms'. Blessing to others).

         Scriptures--Genesis 1:26,27; 2:17; Romans 15:13,29; II
Corinthians 3:18; 5:17,21; Ephesians 3:19; 4:13,22-24;
Philippians 3:13,14; Colossians 2:13,14; I Thessalonians 5:23.

A Prayer for School Bus Drivers and Riders
by Delwyn L. Mayo     Written 3-19-1988

         As I sat by my window one day,
         Watching all the school buses going on their way;
         And as I pondered my own childhood, I began to pray-
         "Lord Jesus, Bless all the school bus drivers each and every day
         And all the boys and girls they carry, all along the way.
         For truly my dear Jesus You do know,
         The many times to school on one I did go.
         So Lord Jesus again I do pray,
         Keep them safe from harm as they go along their way;
         This and every day they are going on their way.
         And I give You thanks again this day,
         For the many times You've kept me safe, as I've gone about my
          ? tasks each day.
         In Your name Lord Jesus I pray.   Amen."

 Dedicated with honor and Love to all the school bus drivers I have
had.?Some I remember and some I don't.

 The basis for this came to me in a dream I had on the date given
above.?Written from the perspective of one who lives next to a school
building.

 Being the son of a Methodist minister, I did not attend the same
school more than 2 years (for a total of 13 years), prior to college at
La. Tech.

 Let this not be copyrighted by anyone, but let it be used to the
glory of God as a blessing to all those it speaks about, as they go
through their day.

 I know that religion and prayer in schools is a rough issue these
days, but I pray that this can somehow be used throughout the schools of
our nation.

 Also, I hope I am not guilty of stealing someone else's words.

With Agap? Shalom, & Prayers,
