Aren’t We Like Those Who Were Robbed, Never Able to Receive Salvation Through Our Own Efforts? [Christian Testimony 18]

Image
  I received genuine true salvation, which freed me from my old salvation that I tried to achieve through my own righteous works, when I read Book 1 in English, “Have You Truly Been Born Again of Water and the Spirit?” from The New Life Mission Pastor Paul C. Jong’s book series. My efforts for my old salvation were truly frustrating. The result was that I had no faith that He took away all my sins because I relied only on the blood of Jesus. This made me live as a sinner, repenting and confessing my sins every day. This was even more endlessly painful as I had to live in constant fear of hell. Then in 2015, when I read the book I mentioned earlier, “Have You Truly Been Born Again of Water and the Spirit?”, the gospel of true salvation reached my heart through my ears. Although I believed in Pastor Paul C. Jong’s written sermons, my carnal thoughts and religious beliefs from my old faith still stood as stumbling blocks between me and the ‘truth of the gospel of water and Spirit’ t...

A Spiritual Testimony of Finding and Sharing the Word of True Salvation [Christian Testimony 17]

Image
  My name is Onyege Emmanuel. I would like to introduce you to a book by Pastor Paul C. Jong titled “Have You Truly Been Born Again of Water and the Spirit?” In 2013, while studying at Uganda Technical College Elgon Mbale, I met someone who was distributing this book “Have You Truly Been Born Again of Water and the Spirit?” and explained the following topics: We Must First Know about Our Sins to Be Redeemed Human Beings Are Born Sinners If We Do Things by the Law, Can It Save Us?   Through the Bible, he explained that I was born a sinner and had twelve kinds of sin in my heart as recorded in Mark 7:20–23. And He said, “What comes out of a man, that defiles a man. For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lewdness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness. All these evil things come from within and defile a man.” <Mark 7:20–23> I took a long time before agreeing with his...

You Who Are Trapped in Legalism Are Destined for Hell [Christian Testimony 16]

Image
  In the past, I was trapped in legalism while believing in God, but I was still a sinner(John 9:31; Revelation 21:27). Despite seeking repentance prayers, fasting and prayer, daily prayers for forgiveness of sins, doing good works to enter heaven, and trying to keep the 10 commandments and 603 law provisions (Galatians 3:10; James 2:10; Ephesians 2:8), sin remained in my heart, hell was my destination, I had no assurance of salvation, and was always weighed down by sin. But now I am born again through faith in the gospel of water and Spirit (John 3:3,5,7). Now I have assurance of salvation and my new destination is heaven (Matthew 13:43, 25:46; Psalm 1:5–6; 1 Peter 3:12). This gospel of water and Spirit is God’s Word revealed through the Bible from Genesis to Revelation. Because of this gospel, I can confess before you today that I stand before God as one without sin (Job 33:9), holy and righteous (Titus 3:5; 1 Peter 1:15–16; Hebrews 10:10–18). This is not arrogance. It is what J...

Jesus Came as the Unblemished Lamb According to the Old Testament Sacrificial Laws [Christian Testimony 15]

Image
  First, I give thanks to God for Jesus Christ who bore all my sins through baptism and paid the price on the cross. This is my testimony of salvation that I received after encountering the gospel of water and the Spirit. In 2011, I was a dedicated member of ‘Jesus Living Church and Ministries International.’ As someone who loved prayer, I attended an interdenominational gathering where I met someone who was serving as a coworker of New Life Mission, and this person taught us about the gospel of water and the Spirit. The speaker explained about circumcision related to the covenant that God made with Abraham, our father of faith, citing the Old Testament scriptures. Speaking about how God commanded Abraham to circumcise all male children, he explained the circumcision of the Old Testament and connected it to the events of the New Testament. Then, citing the biblical verse about circumcision of the heart, he explained that a true Jew is one who has received circumcision inwardly. Cir...

I am truly thankful to God that I can testify through this Christian blog about becoming sinless through the gospel of water and the Spirit. [Christian Testimony 14]

Image
  Thank you, Pastor. Speaking of my testimony on this Christian blog , I can say that I am living a fulfilled life today. This is because the gospel of water and the Spirit has given meaning to my life. The problem of mankind lies in sin. It is also problematic that Christians remain in sin. However, Pastor Paul C. Jong’s teachings completely liberate us from the burden of sin. Faith based only on Jesus’ blood on the cross is a burden that false pastors impose to keep us in bondage for life, and this is truly a serious problem today. Fortunately, in my case, I had the opportunity to discover this beautiful gospel of water, blood, and the Spirit through Pastor Paul C. Jong’s eBook “Have You Truly Been Born Again of Water and the Spirit?” which can be freely downloaded from The New Life Mission’s website, translated into languages worldwide. I am truly grateful to God for leading me to this gospel. I really need your encouragement to become a faithful co-worker in this beautiful m...

Is there any sin in the world that Jesus could not eliminate? There is no sin in the world that Jesus could not eliminate. [Christian Testimony 13]

Image
  Shall we talk about receiving remission of sins? Do you know that sin is what leads you to hell, and that is your biggest problem? If the Lord Jesus Christ comes again now, or if you die within an hour, what is the actual state of your faith before God? Will you go to hell? Will you go to heaven? This book has the answer to that, and it is provided completely free of charge when you visit the homepage! HAVE YOU TRULY BEEN BORN AGAIN OF WATER AND THE SPIRIT?  — Paul C. Jong The main theme of this book is “being born again of water and the Spirit.” This theme contains truly biblical content. In other words, this book clearly explains what it means to be born again according to the Bible, and how one can be born again of water and the Spirit. The water symbolizes Jesus’ baptism in the Jordan River. The Bible says that when Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist, all our sins were transferred to Jesus. John the Baptist was both the representative of all humanity and a descendan...

What Faith Must We Have to Enter Heaven? [Christian Testimony 12]

Image
“What must one do to enter heaven?” To the servants of the Lord Jesus Christ, hello. Here is my testimony: I personally attended many worldly churches, where they always said that to go to heaven, one must not sin, keep the Law, not seek women, and not drink alcohol. But I was someone who could not keep any of these. One day, my sister invited four righteous brothers who were born again of water and the Spirit to preach the gospel of salvation. They asked me, “What must one do to enter heaven?” and I answered like anyone who believes in worldly religion, saying “One must keep the Law.” Then they asked me to name some Laws that I thought I had kept. I said “I have not murdered,” but they showed me Matthew 5:21 and made me realize that I had committed countless murders. “You have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not murder, and whoever murders will be in danger of the judgment.’ But I say to you that whoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger...

Do You Only Believe in the Blood of the Cross Among Jesus’ Works of Salvation? [Christian Testimony 11]

Image
  The gospel of water and the Spirit is the only truth recorded in the Bible. I thank God for letting me meet the gospel of water and the Spirit. I have no sin in my heart because Jesus had already taken away my sins when He took on the sins of the world at the Jordan River, even before I was born. There is only one truth, not many! And the gospel of water and the Spirit is that truth. Amen. Now my goal is to spread this gospel. Although not everyone will accept this gospel, I believe that God can save many souls through me. This September, I received several copies of Volume 1, “Have You Truly Been Born Again of Water and the Spirit?” from Pastor Paul C. Jong’s free book series and distributed them to villagers, and I plan to observe their responses. I am also trying to introduce this gospel to my family members. Although many reject this gospel of water and the Spirit because most only believe in the blood of the cross, I believe God can turn their hearts around. I think it wou...

The Right Faith We Must Have in the Last Days [Christian Testimony 10]

Image
To my physical relatives and friends, as well as all lost souls, I hope and pray that you will quickly deny yourselves and accept the truth of the gospel of water and the Spirit preached by ‘The New Life Mission’, the only true Church of God, as we are now living in the last days. How irreversibly sad would it be if you die carrying sin and guilt because you haven’t been born again of water and the Spirit, even though you claim to believe in Jesus Christ as your Savior? If you truly choose to die in this state due to your ignorance of God’s Word of truth and your unbelief in the truth of the gospel of water and the Spirit (John 3:5), you are rejecting the ‘truth’ that can solve all your sin problems. This gospel truth is that Jesus took upon Himself all the sins of the world (both yours and mine) through the baptism He received from John, paid the price for all sins (both yours and mine) through His blood shed on the cross, and gives new life to those who sincerely believe in their he...

Why did John the Baptist baptize Jesus? [Christian Testimony 9]

Image
  For me, ‘the baptism of Jesus Christ’ means the redemption of our past, present, and future sins. Indeed, through Jesus Christ being baptized with water and the Spirit, He took upon Himself all our sins. Our God established a covenant in Genesis 3:15, and that covenant was to save all sinners. God said that through Jesus Christ’s sacrifice by water and the Spirit, all humanity would be saved from sin. And when the time came, He sent our Savior Jesus among us. As we can see in Matthew 3:15, we can clearly see that John the Baptist transferred all the sins of the world to Jesus Christ through baptism. ‘But Jesus answered and said to him, “Permit it to be so now, for thus it is fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness.” Then he allowed Him’ <Matthew 3:15>. After that, Jesus Christ was crucified and died shedding His blood, eliminating all the sins of the world, including my sins, once and for all. Therefore, it is wrong to believe only in the blood of the cross without beli...

Are you still living in sin because of wrong beliefs? [Christian Testimony 8]

Image
  The "baptism" that Jesus Christ was baptized by John the Baptist was the only way Christ took upon Himself all our sins. Through the baptism from John the Baptist, who was a high priest according to the order of Aaron, He took on the sins of the world, and afterward paid the price for all these sins by shedding His blood on the cross. The cross is actually the result of Jesus Christ taking our sins through baptism. If Jesus had not been baptized, His death would have been meaningless. Now I am righteous and sinless through faith in the gospel of water and the Spirit. And the resolution for future sins can be achieved by acknowledging my sins and through God’s righteous law of salvation. The faith of the righteous is believing that when we confess our sins, even these sins were already taken by Christ 2000 years ago through His baptism, and He paid the price for them by shedding His blood on the cross. In the past, before I encountered the gospel of water and the Spirit, eve...

Can you enter the kingdom of God as a righteous person without  Sin? [Christian Testimony 7]

Image
  What does it mean to be born again of water and the Spirit? Why do people not pay attention to Jesus' words in John 3:5, where He told Nicodemus, "Unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God"? “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God." <John 3:5> Many people wrongly think that 'water' means their 'formal water baptism' and 'Holy Spirit' means their own 'spirit' . And they think being born again means receiving water baptism. Don't you know what Jesus declared in Matthew 7:21-23? There are people who call Jesus "Lord, Lord" and received water baptism but cannot enter His kingdom because they practiced lawlessness. "And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!'" <Matthew 7:23> To practice lawlessness means to have sin by not believing ...

Although I Cannot Help But Sin, the Lord Has Eternally Cleansed Me with Water, Blood, and the Spirit. [Christian Testimony 6]

Image
I wholeheartedly believe in the gospel of water and the Spirit. I believe in Jesus' baptism where John the Baptist baptized Jesus in the Jordan River, in the same way as the laying on of hands in the Old Testament. Through this, the Lord has cleanly washed away all my original sin and personal sins, all my past, present, and future sins. I also believe in His death on the cross. Through this, He paid the price and punishment for all my sins in my place, and I believe in His resurrection. Through this, He gave me eternal life. Although I am weak and full of transgressions, by believing in the Lord's law of salvation, I have no sin, and my conscience has become as white as snow. The Lord Jesus has completely and eternally washed clean all my sins through the gospel of water and the Spirit. Since being born again as a righteous person without sin by believing in the gospel of water and the Spirit, I have been nurtured through Pastor Paul C. Jong's books, praying and spreading ...

Until now, I did not know the exact reason why Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist. [Christian Testimony 5]

Image
  I was freed from legalistic faith and the doctrine of gradual repentance prayer, and received salvation. I am infinitely grateful for the knowledge I received through Pastor Paul C. Jong's book, "Have You Truly Been Born Again of Water and the Spirit?" Volume 1, about John the Baptist's role and ministry for human salvation. Through this knowledge, I was freed from legalistic faith and the doctrine of gradual repentance prayer, and received salvation. Previously, I did not know and did not consider that the sacrificial law of atonement with goats and bulls in the Old Testament was essential to fully understanding Jesus' ministry for my salvation. And I only knew and believed that Jesus shed His blood and died for me on the cross. However, I did not understand at all the biblical teaching that the transfer of sin must be done through the laying on of hands by the priest, and that John the Baptist was the representative of humanity, my representative, appointed b...

Through Knowing the Truth, I Was Able to Leave Religious, Secular Christianity. [Christian Testimony 4]

Image
I was a person religious to the bone marrow. I am 83 years old and live in a community in Andalusia, Spain. I was a person religious to the bone marrow. For a long time, while unable to see, walk, or hear myself, I followed the festival processions of idols carried on shoulders. Here, I am referring to the Catholic religion (See Psalm 115). However, I was not satisfied with this religion, and because it did not appeal to me, I was constantly searching for something else that aligned with my thoughts. Around the age of 34, I accepted the Lord as my Lord and Savior, and immediately dedicated myself to spreading the gospel with the pastor. Soon after, I served as a deacon, and later, as a pastor, I was used by the Lord to pioneer several churches, establishing churches belonging to the Assemblies of God in Portugal and Spain in Seville and its surrounding marginalized areas. Additionally, I established three non-profit organizations (NGOs) to help those in need. Many years later, through ...

I realized that it was my destiny to spread sin wherever I go, regardless of my will. [Christian Testimony 3]

Image
Dear Christian believers around the world, by God's grace, I was blessed to be able to read this book multiple times. When I think about how I almost ended up in the flames of hell despite believing in Jesus as my Lord and personal Savior, I cannot help but thank God for shining His amazing light of salvation through this book. I suffered greatly from my daily sins. After coming home from work tired and falling asleep, I would wake up at dawn and remember that I hadn't washed away my sins through prayers of repentance. I felt deeply sorry and discouraged before the Lord about not being faithful in prayer, and it was even more painful knowing I had disappointed Jesus by seeing myself sin in secret. Seeing my dedication not bearing fruit, I even thought about giving up my Christian faith and living completely in sin. Then, through Pastor Paul C. Jong's book "Have You Truly Been Born Again of Water and the Spirit?", I learned that Jesus took on all my past, present, ...

Through this gospel of the water and the Spirit, I have now obtained freedom from all sins — past, present, and future! [Christian Testimony 2]

Image
  © 2024 Elizabeth. All rights reserved. I am sinless and have become righteous. I understand and am confident that Jesus’ baptism took away my sins and His death on the Cross paid the price for sin. I am certain that I am no longer a sinner. Therefore, regarding future sin issues, through faith in what Jesus has done, I no longer seek forgiveness for resolving my sins. I know that my past, present, and future sins have already been removed. I was taught that believing only in Jesus’ blood on the Cross was sufficient. Before believing in the gospel of the water and the Spirit, I obviously had sin, the reason being that I had never heard of this gospel. I was taught that believing only in Jesus’ blood on the Cross was sufficient. Before hearing this gospel, I tried in vain to become righteous, but now I have obtained freedom by believing in this gospel of the water and the Spirit! I realized that I cannot become holy by myself except through the only gospel of the water and the Spir...

Now I have come to have the right faith that God desires. [Christian Testimony 1]

Image
© 2024 Elizabeth. All rights reserved. At first, I did not truly understand the real meaning of Jesus’ baptism. For me, Jesus’ baptism was just a ritual. However, while reading Book 1, ‘HAVE YOU TRULY BEEN BORN AGAIN OF WATER AND THE SPIRIT?’ and the Bible, I came to understand why our Lord Jesus Christ received baptism from John the Baptist. I came to understand that Jesus received baptism, which was like the laying on of hands, from John the Baptist, who was the last High Priest of the Old Testament, to take the sins of the world upon Himself, and since the wages of sin is death, Jesus, who took the world’s sins, had to pay the price on the Cross. Through faith in Jesus’ baptism, His blood shed on the Cross, His death and resurrection, I have now become a righteous person who is clean and holy without sin. Jesus Christ took all sins of the past, present, and future through His baptism, removed all sins through His blood and death, and made me righteous and holy through His resurrect...
