New Creation

The Lord speaks to us through His manual for success (Bible). But are we listening? We are living in very evil times, but we can also see revival among people if we watch Christian News. When people get saved in great numbers, we need to pray for them to truly get connected. A merely emotional experience is not becoming born again. Conversion is believing that the Lord Jesus Christ went to the cross, died, and rose again, and we ask Him to forgive our sin.

Once we are born again, we need to get a Spirit-filled study Bible and spend time in it every day to get instructions for how to live according to the Kingdom of God. Also, we need to find a Bible-based Spirit-filled fellowship where we can continue to learn and grow. Our learning continues for the rest of our journey until the “catching up, rapture” (1 Thessalonians 4:17) or this life is over.


Every follower of Jesus must have the same alertness about life. Sadly, we can go from one experience to another and never truly seek or find the depths of the Lord. We can get comfortable with life and not realize we’re just sojourners passing through to our eternal home.



1 Corinthians 15:58  Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.

Does everyone go to Heaven?

By Dr. Judy Baus • August 6, 2025
Many people are confused by this question. But before I answer it, I want to make clear that there is a real heaven and a real hell! Everyone goes to one place or the other—their choice! So, no, everyone does not go to heaven, but everyone will go somewhere when they die.

Devastation in the World

By Dr. Judy Baus • September 2, 2025
So many horrible things are happening in our world today—children and adults gunned down in the middle of prayer, lives being destroyed by wars, famines, floods, fires, absolute madness– and if we allow ourselves to focus totally on these things, fear can totally take over and then we will become victims instead of a v

Are we ready?

By Dr. Judy Baus • August 6, 2025
We are eternal beings, and we shall live for eternity somewhere! If we think we are saved, we are not! We must KNOW without a shadow of a doubt that we are born from above and have both an earthly address and a heavenly address. This is done by accepting Jesus as our Savior and living for HIM!

Focus and Obey

By Dr. Judy Baus • July 6, 2025
I see so many believers focusing on world events and the despair in our world. That may well be a focus for the unbeliever but certainly not for a believer! If we read our manual for success (Bible) and obey what it is teaching us, then we will have all our focus on Jesus and the cross! Jesus did everything for us on t

Hope

By Dr. Judy Baus • May 1, 2025
Every day we hear something in the news that is so devastating, but as children of God we always have hope. So many Christians might attend church and read the Bible but still have no understanding of the Lord’s precious gift of Hope. Hope brings and builds trust IN our Lord no matter what happens.
