Hi there!<br />
<br />
I trusted Yeshua for my salvation in March of 1981. <br />
I an an ordained minister who founded Exodus Ministries in 1983. Exodus Ministries is an outreach to those who suffer from Depressive, and or Anxiety disorders. <br />
As part of our outreach, we teach Bible studies, New Believer classes, and courses in Aplologetics classes to those who want to deepen their understanding of the Christian faith.<br />
I have a degree from Fuller Theological Seminary in Discipleship, & Apologetics, and joined this forum, as I enjoy sharing my faith in Yeshua with fellow believers, and answering questions of any believer, or non Christian who might have them.<br />
<br />
God's richest blessings!
My wife, children, camping, fishing, river rafting, composing songs, drumming, travel, snorkeling, Motorcycle touring, and of course my faith in Yeshua.

O.k., our ministry version:
WE BELIEVE The Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are given to man from God, and are without error. It is authoritative Word of God, the only infallible rule of faith and practice for the Christian life.
We BELIEVE in the one living and true God who reveals Himself to us as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, with distinct personal attributes, but without division of nature, essence, or being.
WE BELIEVE that man was created by and for God. By his disobedience, he fell from God’s grace incurring spiritual death, which is separation from God, with physical death as a consequence. The human race are born in sin and are sinners by nature and practice.
WE BELIEVE in the deity of Jesus Christ, his virgin birth and though tempted like all humans, led a sinless and perfect life.
WE BELIEVE that the Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins, according to the scriptures; as a substitutionary sacrifice, and that all who accept and trust Him for their salvation will be justified grace alone, and not by works.
WE BELIEVE Jesus was resurrected bodily from the dead for our justification and is now exalted at the right hand of God where He is our one Mediator, High Priest, and Advocate.
WE BELIEVE in one baptism for the believer by immersion water in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
WE BELIEVE in the indwelling of the Holy Spirit for teaching, comforting, and empowering us for victory in spiritual warfare.
WE BELIEVE the gifts of the Holy Spirit are available to every believer for speaking in tongues, the working of miracles, and other miraculous signs and wonders according to His will
WE BELIEVE in the immanent and personal return of Jesus Christ to the earth.
WE BELIEVE in the bodily resurrection of the just and unjust when Christ will judge all men in righteousness. The unrighteous will be consigned to Hell, the place of everlasting punishment. The righteous in their glorified bodies will receive their rewards and dwell forever in Heaven with the Lord.
