Welcome to the Pastor’s Page!
 

It is my conviction that we are living in the last days of this earth’s history.   Jesus is coming and we must be ready to meet Him!  Not only that but we must be reaching out to those around us whom Jesus also desires to be with Him throughout eternity.  The question is, “How bad do you want it?”  What is eternity with Jesus worth to you?  Is there anything in this world that is worth more than spending forever with the One that came to this earth to save you?  Jesus said, “If you love me, keep my commandments.” (John 14:15)  If we love Jesus more than anything in this world, doing what he has asked us to do is not a burden to us (see 1 John 5:3). 

Perhaps the most vital command he has given us is, “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:”  (Mat 28:19)  The first word of this text is the most important, “Go!”  Unless we go out from our home, our workplace, our neighborhood, our country, and share the good news of Salvation through Jesus, we have not followed Jesus all the way!  Jesus said, “And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life.”  (Mat 19:29)  Yes, there is a cost to following Jesus.  But when we reach heaven, we will see that every sacrifice has been worth it!

So the question to ask yourself when you are presented with a choice to follow Jesus or follow your own will is, “How bad do you want it?”  Jesus gave up the glory of heaven, the constant adoration and worship of the heavenly hosts, just to come to this world.  Here he was ridiculed, spit upon, beaten, scourged, and ultimately crucified.  What a contrast, what a sacrifice, what love!  In the kingdom of God, it is always the love that comes first.  Everything else is a result of that love.  And he did it all for YOU!  What are you doing for Him?

It is my prayer that the things you find on this website will draw you closer to Jesus and help you realize His love for you.  Jesus wants an everlasting, intimate relationship with you!  He is coming back for you!

In Christian Love,

Victor Vaughn
