B
& H MINISTRIES is a Christian Outreach to christians who are turn off by legalism
in some churches (legalism means one does not have to go by a legalistic dress code as some teach).
I share with them the true gospel of Jesus. And
tell them that becoming a Christian is the best decision one could
make. And Jesus promised in Hebrews 13:5 he will never leave you or
forget about you. And Jesus will help you out thru any problems you
are going thru now.and to let the teens know that if they are
not loved, there is a person who will love them in a way no one else
will. that person is Jesus Christ the Son of God.and to show them what God says about the
music they listen to. plus how God can use them. We as a
ministry also put out fact sheets as to what other religions teach
(namely the cults)++++++. The fact sheets are to teach one who can't
afford to buy books about certain cults, and to show them the
difference between what they believe and what Christianity
believes.we love becasue he first loved us. John 3:16.
That's what B & H MINISTRIES is all about.
What we believe as far as doctrine is concerned.
We
believe in one God, creator of all things, infinitely perfect and
eternally existing in three persons Father,Son and Holy
Spirit.
We believe that Jesus Christ is true God and true man
and is head of the church, and having been conceived of the Holy
Spirit and born of the virgin Mary. He died on the cross, a
sacrifice of our sins according to the scriptures. Further, He
arose bodily from the dead, ascended into heaven, where at the
right hand of the Majesty on high, He is now our High Priest and
Advocate.
We believe that the ministry of the Holy Spirit is to
glorify the Lord Jesus Christ and during this age to convict men,
regeneration of the believing sinner, indwell guide,instruct,and
empower the believer for Godly and service.
We believe
that man was created in the image of God, but fell into sin and is
lost, and that only through regeneration of the Holy Spirit can
salvation and spiritual life be obtained.
We
believe that the shed of Jesus Christ and His resurrection provide
the only ground for justification and salvation for all who
believe, and only such as recieve Jesus Christ are born of the
Holy Spirit, and thus become children of God.
We believe
that the Scriptures, both Old and New Testaments, to be the inspiried
Word of God without errors in the original writings of the King James Bible 1611 version, the complete
revelation of His will for the salvation of men, and the divine
and final authority for all Christian faith and life.
We believe
that water baptism and the Lord's supper are ordinances to be
observed by the church during this age, They are however NOT to be
reguarded as a means of salvation, like infant baptism, when your
baptised as a baby, then no matter how a person lives their
lifestyle when they die, they believe that they will go to heaven,
we do not believe that just baptising a person allows them to go
to heaven when they die.and we believe that WOMEN cannot be ELDERS & DEACONS
or PASTORS and lead in prayer in the worship service according to
1st Timothy Chapter 3 and verse 2. however, they can teach in
small Bible study groups outside of the church like in homes.
We believe in
a personal premillennial and imminent coming of our Lord Jesus
Christ. And that this blessed hope has a vital bearing on the
personal life and service to the believer.
We believe
in the bodily resurrection of the dead of the believer to
everlasting blessedness and joy with the lord. And others who
reject the free gift of eternal life to judgement and everlasting
conscious punishment in hell fire.
We believe that everyone is responsible to God alone in matters of faith and that each church is independent and automous and
must be free from interfence by any ecclesiastical or political.And therefore church and state must
be kept separate as having different functions,each fullfulling it's duties free from dictation
or patron of each other. and we believe that civil government is of divine appointment for the
interest and good order of the society and the authorities in power are to be prayed for and
conscientiously obeyed and honored.
We believe
in the existence of a person called SATAN THE DEVIL, and we also
believe that one third of the angels followed him and are referred
to as demons, and we believe they are still active today blinding
the minds of decieved people. We as believers in Jesus must not
listen to him.
We believe
that the shed blood of Jesus Christ and his resurrection provides
the only ground for justification and salvation for all who
believe, and only such as recieve Jesus Christ are born of the
Holy Spirit.
We believe in the true church is composed of such persons who
through saving faith in Jesus Christ have been regenerated by the
Holy Spirit and are united together in the body of Christ of which
Jesus is the head.

We do not believe that speaking in tongues is for today
according to God's Word in 1st corinthians 14:22. We are
nondenominational, and we believe that if a person would
confess Jesus as Lord, and confess their sins to Jesus and not man,
according to 1st Timothy 2:5 and puts their faith and trust in Jesus
and not man, plus repent of their sins and obeys God, that person is
a true christian and when they die they will be in heaven.
++++++++++The fact sheets are as
listed, Jehovah's
Witnessess, Questions that Mormons cannot Answer, Mormons, The
Unification church, Baha'ism, The traditional teachings of the

Stress.
And a word of encouragment from Pastor Bob Papp, when your witnessing for
Jesus one on one, tracts etc. and if the
people get on the defense right away, do not worry they are NOT
getting mad at you personally, but they are getting mad at God
because they are being convicted by him. And never say your sorry to
someone if you offended them by telling them about Jesus. Just keep
on PREACHING IT MAN!!!!!!!and your reward will be in heaven. I am a
graduate of Moody Bible Institute in Chicago Illnois on Christian
Education March of 1995. And I do weddings as well as Christian
counseling. we share with the person in love what GOD has to say
about a certain topic whatever it may be then we let the person
decide for themselves either to accept it or reject it.
