Disunity & Discord According to the Bible There’s an unnoticed reason in a church’s growth that most people overlook – church unity. God blesses a united church. Many churches have tremendous potential, but they never achieve what God desires because the members spend all their time fighting with one another. Money, heaven or

Maintaining your Salvation!
New Converts Class Lesson #3
(Transcript of Tape #104)
We have shown from the previous lessons that we are saved and adopted into God‘s family. WE can take comfort in the fact that no one can snatch us out of our Father’s hands but we must “maintain” this new relationship so we will not “backslide”. Let’s look at those verses in John 10 that we have covered in the past 2 lessons:
John 10:27-29 says, “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand.”
Here we have the promise that no one can snatch us out of our Father’s hand. We must learn how to maintain our walk with Him daily. Maintenance is something we do everyday in our personal appearance before mankind how much more should we maintain ourselves before the Lord! Just as we entered into a new relationship with our spouses we must enter in with our Father. We took time to get to know our spouses in every way possible, there likes, and dislikes, goals and expectancies!
Forget the Past
2 Corinthians 5:17 says, “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.”

New Convert’s Class Week 1
How To Be Saved!
Acts 2:37 says, “Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do?”
Acts 2:38 says, “Then Peter said unto them, 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 Ghost.”
“Repent,” mean to think differently! We must start fresh and learn to think according to the Lord!
“Baptism” is an outward symbol of an inward change. From the original text it means total immersion. When one submits in obedience to the conditions of the gospel they by the grace of God are forgiven. Evidence of that forgiveness is not based on some miraculous sign or an emotional feeling, but upon the promise of God.
Acts 2:39 says, “For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.”
Acts 2:40 says, “And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation.”
Acts 2:41 says, “Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls.”
“Save yourselves” only you can make this life-giving, life-changing decision.
Acts 2:42 says, “And they continued stedfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.”
