from your Pastor
DR. ED M. LAURENA
Dakila ang Panginoon, at iyan ay patuloy Niyang pinatutunayan sa ating buhay at sa ating simbahan. Salamat sa Diyos na sa buong kalahati ng taong 2014, Siya at ang Kanyang Salita, biyaya, kapangyarihan, habag, at pagpapala ang nagtaguyod sa atin upang magpasya na ating gampanan ang ating tungkulin bilang isang mananampalataya. Tulungan nawa tayo ng Panginoon sa Kanyang mapanghimok na kalakasang magpatuloy, hindi lang sa pagpapasya, kundi sa paggawa ng Kanyang kalooban, gaya ng pag-una sa Kanyang kaharian at katuwiran, pagbibigay-pugay sa Kanyang itinalagang Pastor, pagmamahal sa Kanyang simbahan, pagmamalasakit sa kapatiran, at pagpapasakop sa Kanyang pamumuno. Nagpapasalamat din ako sa walang patid ninyong pagalala sa akin sa panalangin habang nandito ako sa America upang gawin ang layunin ang Panginoon sa akin sa pagtungo rito. Muli ay hinihingi ko ang inyong panalangin sa aking pangangaral ng Salita ng Diyos sa Bailey’s Grove Baptist Church sa Asheboro, North Carolina sa ilalim ng pangunguna ni Pastor Jon Shook ngayong araw ng Linggo. Hinihikayat ko muli ang bawat isa na ating sambahin ang Panginoon sa Espiritu at katotohanan ngayong Linggo (John 4:24); at ating ipagkatiwala ang buhay natin sa Kanya nang may buong pananampalataya tungo sa ating ikatatagumpay, at sa Kanyang ikaluluwalhati!!!

THE BLESSINGS OF DISCIPLESHIP
High School Young People
STIRRED UP
for the New School Year
A
S PROVERBS 20:29 asserts, “The glory of young men is their strength…” Scarcely any young man desires to be righteously wise and biblically learned but almost all young people delight to show their might and to be reputed strong. However, it is a blessing that in this church, the program of activities for many young people gears them towards development of both wisdom and strength. One of the biggest departments in the church has managed to accommodate the youth’s excitement in learning more from the Word of God. In the second week of June, along with the opening of academic year 2014-2015 in seven high school campuses, workers and volunteers of the Baptist Youth Campus Ministry resumed their regular weekly conduct of Bible Studies, soulwinning, and classroom evangelisms. From Mondays through Fridays, 3 to 5 workers travel to reach the following schools for the sake of the Gospel: San Pedro Relocation Center National High School (San Pedro Main Campus and Landayan Annex), Bulihan National High School, Biñan National High School, Carmona National High School, Bulihan National High School and St. Francis National High School in Biñan. The past years of teaching the Word of God through this ministering arm have brought the church additional soulwinners, Sunday School teachers and Choir members. In the months to come, there are scheduled evangelisms in selected high schools. Please pray for the success and active involvement of the church’s young people.

KO PO AY NAGPAPASALAMAT sa Panginoon sa kaligtasang natanggap ko sa Kanya noong Mayo, 2003. Sa Kanyang gabay, nabautismuhan din ako noong taon ding yon. Ako po ay nagsuko ng buhay sa Panginoon noong 2008, at kasabay noon ay ang pag-aaral ko sa BHBC. Sa biyaya ng Diyos, ako ay nakapagtapos taong 2013. Ako po ay nagpapasalamat sa discipleship program ng ating simbahan kung saan ako ay naturuan, kaya ako ay lumago sa pananampalatayang meron tayo. Dahil din sa programang ito, natutunan kong mahalin ang gawain ng Panginoon. Salamat sa mga taong ginamit ng Panginoon para ako ay turuan at impluwensyahan upang ako ay mahubog sa Kanyang gawain. Sabi nga sa II Timothy 2:2, "And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.” Sa biyaya ng Panginoon, ako po ngayon ay full-time church staff member. Ako po ay nagtuturo sa mga bata tuwing Linggo sa primary department ng ating Sunday School at pinagkatiwalaan ng Panginoon sa pamamagitan ng ating Pastor na manguna sa area 14. Ako po ay nagagalak dahil ako ay lumago sa Kanyang paraan. Lahat ng ito ay gawa ng Panginoon sa aking buhay, kaya lahat ng papuri at pasasalamat ay ibinibigay ko sa Kanya!!!

Ministry in JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL BOYS DEPARTMENT
S
IXTY YOUNG BOYS are always on the go for various activities of the high school department. As energetic and enthusiastic as their teacher, Sir Justin Sales, they joyfully gather every Sunday at the third floor of the Main Building. Amongst these youngsters, a number have joined the Baptist Youth Campus Ministry in their respective schools. Hence, they are soulwinners and workers of our church ministries such that some of them can be seen with the church choir, and Sunday School Children’s Department. We must remember that from this pool of actively growing Christians will rise the church’s new breed of preachers, missionaries, pastors, and church workers. Let us support them and continually pray for their zealousness and love for the Lord.

LEAD “…For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing...” – Ephesians 5:22-25
I
N TODAY’S EQUALITY-DRIVEN SOCIETY, most individuals are questioning and simply refusing to accept the truth that the husband is the authority within the family. However, this is what our Father in Heaven says in His Word. Paul says that the wife is to submit to her husband as to Christ. He went on to explain that as the Church must obey Christ, the wife should also obey her husband. According to the Scriptures, the father is the final authority within the family. Paul also said that the husband is to love his wife as Christ loved the Church. It is important to note that our Saviour never abused His authority over the Church. In the same way, the husband should never use his God-given authority to abuse his wife or family. The husband is to love his wife. Over the years, there have been many published studies on the importance of fathers. Without a father, a child is much more likely to engage in activities that are abusive or harmful. In a survey, it was discovered that sixty-three percent of young people who commit suicide are from fatherless homes; eighty-five percent of children who exhibit behavioural disorders are from fatherless homes; eighty percent of rapists are from fatherless homes; seventy-one percent of high school dropouts are from fatherless homes; seventy-five percent of all adolescent patients in chemical-abuse centers are from fatherless homes; seventy percent of juveniles in state operated institutions come from fatherless homes; eighty-five percent of youth in prison are from fatherless homes; seventy percent of pregnant teens are from fatherless homes. In the majority of studies documenting the impact of fatherless homes, there is one recurring theme —without strong fathers at home, children suffer in many profound ways. God knew what He was doing when He created man and woman and brought them together as a family. Without this core unit that God has established, no culture has a chance for long-term survival. The most important building block of any society is the family. The family is the foundation and the cornerstone of civilization. Within the family, one of the most important roles is the father. Today, the father’s significance has largely been diminished. One area in which this is painfully evident is with his authority in the family. Paul has fully addressed the family structure in his epistle to the Ephesians. The father was given the role to be the Provider, the Preserver, and the Protector of the home. 1 Tim 5:8 says, “But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel. “ For a father there is no greater basic responsibility than to provide for the necessities of his family. Another important obligation is to be the Preserver of the home by way of Biblical correction. This is becoming increasingly a taboo today, but the Bible declares in Proverbs 23:13-14, “Withhold not correction from the child: for if thou beatest him with the rod, he shall not die...” The father as leader of the home should also be the Protector as the Lord is in Proverbs 18:10, “The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.” May the God-ordained leader of the home take the lead; and may his wife, children, and entire household be in followership and supportive to his leadership. So then the Lord can accomplish His perfect purpose in the home.
Godly Relationships Beata B. Agustin
Godly relationships are started by the Lord with His offered redemption That declares His love fulfilling mercies’ action Letting us experience genuine friendship of sincere devotion As we reach out to the lost with His restoring compassion For them to reconcile with the merciful Saviour and receive His gift of salvation. Godly relationships are stabilized by the Lord upon His great might That shows His power vanquishing transgressions’ height Letting us enjoy gracious forgiveness of heavenly sight As we lead the spiritually blind with His transforming light For them to follow the only Way, the truth Who’s always bright. Godly relationships are sealed by the Lord along His constant assurance That exposes His faithfulness affirming goodness’ endurance Letting us rely on steadfast security of eternal insurance As we win souls with His affirming deliverance For them to cleave to the perfect Word to defeat ignorance. Godly relationships are sweetened by the Lord thru His delightful nurturing That exhibits His presence shutting bitterness’ pouring Letting us approach prayer throne of sanctified rearing As we uplift the hopeless with His endearing gearing For them to draw near the gentle Master against unbelief’s stirring. Godly relationships are strengthened by the Lord around His holy fellowship That speaks of His standards upholding believers’ worship Letting us bear much fruits of diligent discipleship As we minister to the brethren with His inviting partnership For them to learn from the best Teacher for wise stewardship. Godly relationships are satisfied by the Lord according to His bountiful measure That enriches His blessings flourishing in contentment’s pleasure Letting us gain divine prosperity of celestial enclosure As we give to the missions with His abounding treasure For them to thrive thru the generous Provider midst crises’ pressure. Godly relationships are settled by the Lord toward His triumphant glory That proclaims His supremacy subduing earth’s adversary Letting us humble down before the Author of great history As we warn the skeptics with His dominating fury For them to beseech the righteous Judge and trust Christ’s Gospel story.

NG SABI NI HESUS, “Ako ang daan, ang katotohanan, at ang buhay: walang makapupunta sa Ama kundi sa pamamagitan ko.” Juan 14:6 Wala nang iba pang makapagliligtas sa iyo mula sa impiyerno. Magtiwala ka kay Hesus ngayon! Roma 6:23 “Kung ipahahayag ng iyong bibig na si Hesus ay Panginoon at mananampalataya ka nang buong puso na Siya’y muling binuhay ng Diyos, ikaw ay maliligtas”. Roma 10:9 1. Aminin mo na ikaw ay isang makasalanan. Roma 3:10 2. Magsisi ka sa iyong kasalanan. Gawa 17:30 3. Manampalataya ka na si Kristo Hesus ay namatay para sa iyo, nalibing at nabuhay namagmuli. Roma 10:9-10 4. Sa pamamagitan ng panalangin, tanggapin mo si Hesus sa iyong puso bilang iyong Tagapagligtas. Roma 10:13 Manalangin ka ng ganito: Panginoon, ako po ay isang makasalanan at nangangailangan ng kapatawaran. Nanampalataya po ako na nadanak ng dugo ni Hesus at Siya ay namatay sa krus para sa akin. Nagsisisi po ako sa aking mga kasalanan. Tinatanggap ko po si Kristo Hesus sa aking puso bilang aking Tagapagligtas. Amen. "Kung tinanggap mo si Hesus bilang iyong Tagapagligtas, ito na ang simula ng iyong bagong buhay kay Kristo." Roma 8:1 Ngayon: 1. Basahin mo ang iyong Biblia araw-araw upang makilala pa nang lubusan si Kristo Hesus. 2. Makipag-usap ka sa Diyos sa panalangin araw-araw. 3. Manambahan ka sa isang simbahan na pinapangaral si Kristo at ang Biblia ang tanging pamantayan. 4. Ibahagi sa iba si Kristo Hesus.
