The Church That Did
They set out to spread the Gospel throughout the known world. And guess what? They did just that.
No doubt every church pulpit across America will flow with words of expectations for the new year. Some will talk about the up coming plans to expand, do more, create more, and buy more.
The early church was faced with many of the same things that plague the “modern” church.
But how many of them will focus on spreading the Gospel? No, I’m not talking about growing church ministry, but reaching out to the disenfranchised, the diseased in spirit, those who have given up on God and the super religious lost?
Now if I may juxtapose for a moment. The concept of “the modern church” is a nice way of saying “the unfocused church”. We have become so set on Sunday attendance, how many programs a church has, or how to market the pastor to make “our church” more attractive.
There was a church many, many years ago that did that. Even though they were faced with financial hardship, persecution, and ethnic rifts, they pressed on determined to spread the Gospel.

Not only did they spread the Gospel, but they saw many souls come to God. They didn’t want people to join their church, they wanted souls to be born into the family. If the church today is to survive, we must loose the concept of Sunday attendance numbers, and get back to the desperate need to see souls born into the Kingdom. Just like the early church did it, we can do it - reach the world with the Gospel.
But the early church had one concern. -Mel A. Perry. Spreading the gospel. Paul could care less how many billboards his face was on, or Mel serves as Global Relations Director and how many people knew that he Assistant Pastor of NLTC

IN OTHER WORDS
Happy New Year to you! I pray that you are walking into this new year with your eyes wide open, your arms uplifted and your ears open to God’s direction. 2010 was a great year, and 2011 will be a greater year because God made it. I know there are people who insist on complaining at the end of each year, but I encourage you to, in the words of Pastor Kim Burrell, “use your happy”. The Apostles Paul often warned us of the trials and tribulations of life. But he also let us know that “in every thing we are to rejoice”. I remember the old Shirley Ceasear song, “this joy that I have the world didn’t give and the world can’t take it away!” In 2011, don’t give anyone your joy.

Jesus is the Reason for Every Season: Happy New Year to All By Bishop Brenda K. Perry
“For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulders: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace.” (Isaiah 9:6)
December 22, early, while kneeling in prayer, this scripture came to me so much so that I began to quote it during my prayer time. It turned my I’ve preached to myself already my New Year’s message and it goes like this, “It’s not if heart from heaviness to gladness and God can, but if I will. What 2011 produces thanksgiving. Truly a Child was born will be predicated on if I step out on what God and truly a Son was given. We serve has already made happen. It’s not if God will such a great and awesome God, who provide the Seed Offering, but will I give it. provided Himself to bring redemption It’s not if God will provide my First Fruit to lost humanity. Offering, but will I step out and give it. God already has, so what am I waiting for!”
When we look at the gospel story of the birth of Jesus you see the fulfillment of Isaiah 9:6, as well as Isaiah 7:14 which reads, “Therefore If we want to make this THE YEAR, then we the Lord Himself will give you a sign. will have to do the work and make the move, Behold, the virgin shall conceive and because God has already made His move. bear a Son, and shall call His name As Bishop has stated, yes the enemy will fight Immanuel.” Matthew 1:21 translates “Immanuel” as “God with us”. When us. After all that’s his job. But just because you read Isaiah 9:6 it clearly speaks of he’s doing his job we should not shy away from doing our assignment. one God, and in His greatness He clearly demonstrated the Let’s grab the vision and walk in it! manifestation of Himself by bringing redemption to man. Psalm 145:3 says, “Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised; and His greatness is unsearchable.” Our little finite mind cannot comprehend the greatness of Mel A.

our God, so we continue to place Him in our world and into our box. My thought is to express the great and mighty God we serve. It’s sad to say that many cannot see or do not want to see “His eternal power and Godhead.” We know that Jesus was all man and all God, but being all man yet without sin. The sins of the father are passing on down to the children and no one is exempt, man or woman. Luke 1: 35 let us know the Holy Spirit will come to Mary and the power continue on page 4
Building on the word of GOD John 1:1 By Minister Isaac Bazile
The scripture says, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with GOD, and the Word was GOD.” So you ask yourself, how can I build on the word of God when it belongs to God who created everything? The answer is we can’t, but it is the word that builds us. Jesus said,”I will build my church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it” (Matthew 16:18). We who proclaim Jesus Christ as our Savior, and believe in his salvation, are that church. What Jesus was saying is “Let the devil and all of his demons gather and plot as to how to stop me from building My church and they can not”. Jesus was declaring he would develop his people. Christ is about being forever in the life of every individual believer and all collective bodies of believers.

of the Highest shall over shadow her. Yes, we may celebrate the birth of Christ at Christmas, but His death, burial and resurrection are celebrated as well. He gave of Himself so we may have life and that more abundantly, now and in the life to come. Jesus is the reason for every time frame of your life. Whether you a diehard believer or not, I want you to focus on what Isaiah 9:6 says, for there are no words that can justly express who and how vast God is. If we truly believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder to those that diligently seek Him, then we must believe He will supply all your needs, physical, spiritual, mentally and financially, whatever you need, according to His riches and glory.

there would be neither death nor resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. You can eliminate the stress and debt by just keeping Jesus as the main focus. The world and the devil are working very hard to take Christ out of Christmas. If they cannot “X” Him out, or “Happy Holiday” Him out, well the next best thing is to “commercialize” Him out. Christmas, along with all seasons, is about Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR

He used the construction of a building as an occasion to build the children of God in the faith and make them cohesive or come together in unity. When you and I first came to Christ, we were like a vacant lot with nothing As we come into this New Year let on it but the ugly debris us lift up and proclaim our God. I of sin. Then we realized could go through each name and through the word that it expound endlessly on each one. If you was Christ who love Him like you say you do, let’s purchased us by the shedding of his precious blood. Repentance took show more than we have ever done. He is waiting on us to show His glory place and the debris of sin began to be to the lost and dying world. Now that removed from our lives, and the He is born and given to you, what are foundation of the word, through faith, began to take hold of our spirit and you going to do with Him? our hearts.

Remember the story of the man who built his house on sand? In Matt 7:26-27, it likens this man "unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it." "For we are laborers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, ye are God's building. According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise master builder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon." (1 Cor. 3:9-10) If we build on a proper foundation and with the proper materials, then there will be no carnality-there will be no division, no weakness. We cannot build with wood, hay and stubble, with division and partiality and expect God to be pleased with our work. I am glad God found me worthy enough to build me into his church by his word, how about you?
Minister Isaac J. Bazile serves as Director of Men of the Tower at NLTC
In order for God to build us, we must first have a solid foundation. Jesus is that foundation. He is the solid foundation. The reason people have such misery with life is that they attempt to build their lives on shaky ground. Their foundation is not solid. 4

New Life Temple Ministries Words from our ministries
Ladies of the Light
“A WORD FROM THE LADIES’ MINISTRY” “Lessons Learned” Throughout time, women have shared their joys and sorrows, thoughts and feelings, experiences and life lessons with one another. The tradition continues; we are learning how to embrace one another when time permits. How many can remember growing up and your mom gave you some advice you did not follow, and the very thing she gave you advice about turned out just as she said? Did you go back and say mom you were right, or do you just keep to yourself and deal with the out come of the matter? We are in a New Year with new and old thoughts. Some people have set goals for this year. For some reason, I had a hard time writing this article this month. I know several very good friends going through a rough time right now until it’s very hard to wrap my head around it because I just don’t understand why they have to go through this pain, from sickness, loss of employment, financial hardship, and family problems beyond their control. I am

learning you always don’t have to say anything, just be there if they need you. You have to really be wise with the words you say to a person facing hardships. You can say you understand, but we are really not going through that pain or discomfort. When you don’t have an encouraging word, it’s good not to say anything because you can do more harm than good. I have learned how to weigh my words that I say to others even though they smile like they agree when they really don’t. What I’ve said may even be truth, but the expression on their face spoke louder than that person’s words could ever speak.
Once again peace and blessing Sis. Donna Stephens, Ladies of the Light Coordinator

Forget What’s Behind
“Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.” I have learned to consider my Philippians 3:13-14 husband feelings as well when Perhaps more sermons have been speaking to him because they are preached on the above scripture than important as well, again remembering on any other in the bible. the wisdom from my mom.

First it says he shall which mean he definitely will. Second he said all my need as in singular one need. People that need is Him. He’s all we need because he’s the supplier of everything. God has got this, and all He needs for us to do is to trust him, be prayerful and full of the word so we can give it back to him. He is the word and the word that has been spoken out of his mouth will not return unto him void, but it will accomplish that which he pleases (Isa. 55:11).

Well the hustle and bustle of the holidays are behind us!
Not that I’m complaining at all. After all the hustle and bustle is so much a part of Thanksgiving and Christmas. However, now it’s time to take a seat and just breath. While other people are lying to themselves making resolutions, the same ones they have been making for the past God knows how many years - just do it for crying out loud. I’m just going to find a seat somewhere, make a pot of tea, breath in the aroma and relax. Ah, the air smells so fresh from this seat.

I would just let my mind whisper a prayer.
As a matter of fact, God created REST. Say it, REST.
Nope, that’s not some strange Chinese hocus pocus. The Bible does talk about meditating. It’s a Biblical principle for sanity.
How many people get a day off from work and spend the whole day working. Either you are running errands, cleaning, taking care of family business, etc.
In the hustle and bustle world we live in sanity is a rare commodity. Everyone’s giving someone a piece of their mind until they have nothing left to give and they just flip out.
But when your body sends you on a mandatory rest, or a permanent rest, you want to blame the devil. No, blame yourself, because God gave you a way of escape, but you chose not to take it.
If most people are honest, they are seconds from doing a mental backflip. It’s common to hear people say their “nerves on edge” or “hanging on by a thread”. And the tragedy is, they are not exaggerating.
Did you know rest effects your worship? Not only our expression of worship when we come to the house of God, but our daily live worship that we give to God.
Now days many people have no clue how uptight or explosive they are when under pressure. They have to come believe it’s normal behavior because they have done it so long.
Many years ago, lol like I’ve been around that long, I started doing “me time”. Even While most time I want to say, “please go medicate yourself if I was in the middle of a crowd before you become of people, I would take a combustable and do mental “shut down” and just more damage to breath. yourself than you But the real “me time” would already have.” Of take place once a month.

How can we make time to give ourselves a living sacrifice when we are wearing our body out in worship to the world and our own pleasure? By the time to give to God of our time we are worn out. So what we offer is a beat up worship which equates to no worship at all. This year I invite you to join me in some “me time”. No don’t make a resolution to get more rest! Pull out your calendar and set those rest days. Schedule that 10-20 minutes in your day when you can get away from it all and just enjoy “the sweet quite hour of rest”. Happy resting to you!
