required in this hour as i look across this congregation i am looking at a group of the most blessed people the very fact that you can take a deep breath is a miracle hallelujah my wife called me early this morning i had mr call and i noticed she had called several times i'm thinking wow something's up and when i finally got her on the phone she was concerned she said did you hear the news i said no and uh in a neighboring church across one of our precious saints of god went into eternity this morning and another one they're taking off life support and i'm thinking to myself you know this is no time to play with god this is no time to have regular church those days are over amen and there are a lot of folks that's just clamoring to get back to regular no sir no more regular it's an hour of desperation the clock is a ticking the coming of the lord is imminent and god is calling all people everywhere to repent to repent and get right with god oh hallelujah the lord told us just like it was in the days of noah that's how it was going to be in the day of the coming of the son of man they ate they drank they bought they sold they got married and nothing's wrong with any of those things but the problem was that man was continuing on with his business as if nothing was about to happen and the lord said that's how it's going to be people going to keep on acting like there's nothing going on everything's continuing as it was from the days of creation but jesus said you old hypocrite if you can look outside and look at the clouds and discern it's gonna rain how can you not see the signs all around us jesus is coming jesus is coming jesus is coming and today is your day of salvation so if you would endure with me we're gonna go to the word of the lord two places in the bible first to the gospel of john the gospel of john the third chapter and then acts chapter 22. in the gospel of saint john chapter three beginning in verse number one the scripture declares that there was a man of the pharisees everyone say pharisees in other words he was a very religious man his name was nicodemus he was a ruler of the jews the same came to jesus by night and said unto him rabbi we know that thou art a teacher come from god for no man can do these miracles that thou doest except god be with him jesus answered and said unto him verily verily i say unto thee except a man is born again he cannot see the kingdom of god nicodemus says unto him how can a man be born when he's old can he enter the second time into his mother's womb and be born jesus answered verily verily i say unto thee accept a man be born of water and of the spirit he cannot enter into the kingdom of god that which is born of the flesh is flesh and that which is born of the spirit is spirit marvel not that i said unto thee you must you must be born again and now to the book of acts the 22nd chapter acts chapter 22 in verse 16. ananias came to paul before he was converted his name was saul and he repeated the words that god had given him and then he said and now why terry is style in other words that word terry means wait and now why are you waiting arise and be baptized and wash away thy sins calling on the name of the lord amen and so this morning for the next few minutes i have the same question for some of you here and some of you that may be watching online why are you waiting why are you procrastinating why are you tearing let's pray together holy spirit of the living god bring revelation bring understanding to the minds of men and women everywhere touch somebody today lord help them to recognize now is the time the hour is dark and we must work lord now while it's still day but the night's coming when no man can work i pray for that lady lord under the sound of my voice god that you would touch her spirit and draw her to you remove every barrier remove every assignment of the enemy touch that man today lord lord help him overcome that spirit of pride that's keeping him away from truth break the yoke set these people free bring them o lord into the ark in these evil last days we pray in the name of jesus christ and let the whole church say amen now let's give the lord a handclap for saving your family saving your friends saving your neighbors god i thank you in advance hallelujah you're gonna do it lord you're gonna do it lord hallelujah we give you all the praise in the matchless and glorious name of jesus christ god bless you and you may be seated praise god oh i appreciate so much what i've heard earlier today in this service amen when pastor mentioned about that that that spirit of desperation glory to god and that blind man we live in a world with a lot of blind people i'm not talking about physical blindness i'm talking about spiritual blindness where the bible says the god of this world the devil have blinded them that they may not see the truth oh glory to god amen we need to have people finding their way to the water there's a pool of blessing and in case you don't know it's right behind me there's a pool of blessing where you can go down in the water and have your eyes opened up and have your spirit opened up and have your life changed in the water glory to god oh as we look at the scriptures today we find that jesus amen was speaking to this pharisee a pharisee is one of those that were in the higher echelons of religion amen can i tell you something this morning being religious is not enough you can be religious and still not be saved you can go to church and still not be saved you can read your bible every day and still not be saved let me tell you something you can be a pastor of a church and not be saved you can be a bishop and not be saved you can be a television evangelist and not be sick salvation that's the number one thing you think you need a blessing you don't need a blessing you already blessed we are blessed more than anybody else i'm telling you we are so blessed we are spoiled come to church lord i need this lord no you don't need nothing the only thing you need is your name written in the lamb's book of life that's what you need you don't need another healing you don't need no money you don't need another house you need to be saved that's the number one thing is salvation here this religious man a man that had committed his whole life to serving god a man that was dedicated no doubt of nicodemus would walk into this sanctuary wearing his religious garb most of us would look around and say that that man is saved but he wasn't he came to jesus by night and he said rabbi we know we don't act like we know but we know and some of you sit in this congregation right now you know by your actions you don't act like you know but you know it's not normal times something is going on something is different about the era we're living in now it's never been like this you know that there is something happening right under the tumults of the world something is going on you can feel it you can feel it you can feel it you sense it something is different and he said we know we know who you are because can't nobody do what you do except god be with you and jesus wasn't interested in that conversation he wasn't interested in having his ego tickled jesus cut to the chase looked right at nicodemus and said let me tell you something nicodemus except you are born again you can't see the kingdom and that's why so many people don't understand god they don't understand the word of god they don't understand the things of the spirit because they're not born again amen that's the prerequisite that's that's elementary that's that's the first thing that's the first hurdle you got the cross is to be born again ain't no sense coming up here trouble oh can you explain the book of revelation what you want to know the book of revelation for [Applause] you not even saying you want to know the mysteries of the book of revelation and who is the antichrist you better forget all of that you better get your soul washed in the blood of jesus hallelujah and get your name in the book of life that's the number one thing [Applause] and until until you do that you can't see you can't see nicodemus religious he couldn't see and he proved it what do you mean being born again it went right over his head i could just i could just see nicodemus just sitting there chuckling here i am i'm over 50 years old should i go back to my mother's womb and be born again what kind of stuff is this jesus said let the hold up let me just break it down verily verily truly truly i say unto thee except a man is born again of the water and of the spirit you cannot enter into the kingdom of god except you know what that means no exceptions no exceptions but but but the lord is inclusive no he's not oh no he's not he's very strict amen the way to salvation is narrow it is a straight road it's not easy you just can't come in any kind of way you want to he's oh man he's very exclusive it doesn't matter how much you do or how much money you got or how many times you got you oh listen except you're born again but i'm a reverend except you're born again but i got a big church except you're born again you're not going to get in glory to god oh i've got to get in i've got to be saved and today today i want to talk to you about one of the essentials of being saved so i wonder you're here you're present why'd you come to church why why'd you come to church see there's three types of people the curious the convinced and the committed see they're curious they they're curious come hey amen we got a special speaker this sunday you know this guy from virginia yo you got to come see him oh here is something else you got really oh child let me tell you i'm coming i'm coming why i'm curious i'm just curious you have no intention of being baptized today no intention you have no intention of receiving the holy ghost today you just come to check things out curious then then there's those that are convinced they walk in here and they feel the presence of god yeah he's here he's here i can feel the presence of god i i hear the word of god this this is real i'm convinced this is the truth i know i need to get right i know i need to be baptized but you're not gonna do it you're not gonna do it you're convinced but you're not gonna do it but then there's that third group committed if god says it that's final if i see it in the word i don't need no more explanation i'm committed to this thing hallelujah i've got my mind made up i'm not wasting another minute living for the devil i'm not wasting another minute being deprived if god says it i'm gonna obey it hallelujah jesus said there's no exceptions no exceptions you must be born of the water and of the spirit in mark chapter 16 in verse number 16 jesus said he that believeth and is baptized you know what that tells me that tells me it's not enough just to believe it's not enough just a believer i believe i believe yeah you believe show me you gotta show me that's what god requires he requires action faith without works is dead you gonna show me you believe show me you're gonna have to do something he that believeth and is baptized shall be saved amen and all this easy believism that's going around all these so-called churches it's not of god just standing up and confessing and and all is saying all these words you're gonna have to do something jesus said if you really believe you must be baptized now what's the alternative he that believeth not shall be damned boy you know jesus just put it right out there i mean he just laid it right out like it or lump it amen i'll preach you in or i'm gonna preach you out [Applause] listen you ain't got the two options you're either saved or you're not saved right now sitting in that pew you are either saved or you're not saved what people need to do you need to quit lying to yourself quit deceiving yourself the greatest deceit of all is self-deception uh i'm good uh i'm good no you're not me and the lord we tight god don't even know you lying to yourself lying to yourself and and you got people around you that reinforces it [Music] yeah child god got you you ain't gotta worry about nothing you're good god's on your side all these people telling you lies on top of lies and deceiving and being deceived and and believing in things that's not even in the scripture amen like that lie we all children of god that's a big one we all we are all children of god no no you're not me no kin to me no no if god is your father you're going to do his deeds you're going to look like him you're going to talk like him you're going to walk like him but you are of your father the devil and his deeds will you do people just lying to themselves all the time and they you know they create god in their own image the god that you say you believe in has don't look anything like the god that's in the bible amen he that believe and is baptized not might be saved shall be saved now you don't want to get baptized you don't want to get baptized that means you don't believe you can't say you believe and then refuse to get baptized jesus said if you don't believe in other words if you refuse baptism you shall be damned i mean he letting you know right up front amen so you gonna be saved or you're gonna be damned the question is which be will you be and guess what you're gonna answer that today oh yes you will you're going to answer that today oh man i won't read it you better get ready because god is demanding an answer to that question glory to god well that's all y'all talk about is water baptism water baptism don't save you that's a lie first peter chapter three looking at verse number 21 look what the apostle peter said speaking of water the like figure where unto even baptism does also now save us hallelujah not the putting away of the filth of the flesh you don't get baptized to take a bath no but it's the answer of a good conscience god cleanses your spirit god cleanses your mind god washes you in the blood by the resurrection of jesus christ hallelujah some don't think it's important to be baptized you hear people say well baptism is just a outer something of an end or something else they got all kinds of things trying to explain away water baptism it's not all that important it's just some kind of ordinance of the church somebody told me one time i said man i got saved 10 years before i got baptized i said how's that possible people don't know and preachers aren't teaching amen some of these convoluted churches some of y'all go to and come from jesus said in the last days gonna be a bunch of false teachers false preachers everything got a steeple that don't make it a church just because they got stained glass windows that don't make it the church jesus said upon this rock i'm gonna build my church you better make sure you in the right church you better make sure you're receiving the right instruction because there's only one lord there's only one faith there's only one baptism there's only one god and the bible says if any man come unto you preaching anything different then what's in here let him be accursed [Applause] then he didn't then he got even even even more he said even if an angel a angel if a heavenly creature appears in glorious light shining and glimmering and tell you anything different and what's in this book let him be a curse i'm telling you you need to know the word for yourself you need to read that word for yourself god laid it all out and some things in here that's deeper there's some things in here so deep you can't get it there's some things in here but there's some things in here that's so easy even a child can understand it and god wants you to be saying god wants you to be saved god wants you to be saved it's not complicated oh glory to god so when it comes to water baptism i'm here to tell you today that it is essential if you've not been water baptized you are not saved amen some people don't think it's important some people don't give it much thought some people don't even look at some of them have been baptized and haven't even recognized how they were baptized i asked one guy one time said man uh what what what do you believe about being baptized i believe what my church believed what did your church believe my church believe what i believe oh what do you both believe we believe the same thing you need to know what you believe you need to understand what you believe you need to be ready to take a stand for what you believe jesus said teach teach teach all nations baptizing them you need to know what you're doing and i'll tell you so many people that are spiritually ignorant and on their way to hell today in church pews because they haven't been taught or they haven't read it for themselves we're going to talk about this today because everybody in here needs to be baptized amen so we're going to look at how is it done the word baptized comes from a greek word that means to dip to emerge or to plunge when you get baptized you're going to be completely emerged into the water and when you are emerged in the water you are being identified with jesus christ by being buried with him see a lot of folks under never never understood that it's more than just getting wet and then there's some people that they don't they don't put you down in the water amen there are some churches organizations that feel like it's okay just to sprinkle you with water amen they just get so much sprinkling on it i saw a video on the internet uh this guy's standing in a little circle thing with a robe on and two men next to him with bottles of water pointed on in his head how stupid can you be but people are doing that kind of stuff amen and some folks thinks it's okay but i tell you friend we need to follow the example that's already set before us in the word of god the bible tells us how to do it the bible gives us the examples of how to do it and if it's not in the bible don't do it can you say amen romans chapter six beginning at verse number three the apostle paul wrote to the church no ye not don't you know this that so many of us as we're baptized into the father the son and the holy ghost is that what he's saying no no no no as many of us as were baptized in to jesus christ hallelujah we were baptized into his death watch this watch this glory to god amen and the bible says therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death just like he rose from the grave when we rise about that water we are rising up to walk in the newness of life we are taking our place with him at the cross at the cross hallelujah we are identified with his death his burial and his resurrection when you go down in the waters of baptism that's why paul said i've been crucified with christ nevertheless it's not me but it's christ that's living in me that's for every one of you that's for every one of you every one of you need to be baptized in to christ jesus hallelujah and now we know when we're baptized we need to go down because when you get buried you don't get sprinkled with dirt amen we are buried with him in baptism that means you gotta go under the water and then that preacher brings you back up to walk in newness of life that means you when you come up out of the waters of baptism in the name of jesus christ you'll have a new purpose you have a new destination the bible says old things are passed away and then everything everything becomes new glory to god how many have been baptized in the name of jesus you know what i'm talking about it's something that happens oh something happens when i call on his name there is something about that name something about that name amen acts chapter 4 and verse number 12. it doesn't really make a difference if you get baptized in the name of father son and holy ghost does it make a difference if you get baptized in the name of jesus christ actually they're the same thing the subject is the name the name that's what jesus said he said this is for everybody he said baptize all nations all nationalities this is good for the black man this is good for the white man this is good for the native american this is good for the chinese this is good for afghanistan this is for everybody under the face of the sun hallelujah no difference no difference he said baptize all nations well you talk about the jews samaritans and the gentiles that covers everything and when you baptize them do it the same way in the name in the name in the name of the father in the name of the son in the name of the holy ghost he didn't say say father son of the holy ghost he said baptize them in the name of the father son and holy ghost you got to know what the name is i was in a bible study at work when i was in the shipyard i mean i missed those bible studies all kinds of people was in my class i said lord i don't want to just just us i want everybody coming to my class every denomination every background and man they were there we had we had presbyterians had a couple of mormons had some jehovah witnesses had some baptists and methodists church of god in christ they were all in my class and there was one lady i mean she was jealous for god she loved god and she would practically fight you over the bible i mean man i mean if i said anything she disagree with she stand up hold it and i got to talking about this subject right here i said there's only one baptism according to the book of ephesians and that's in water in the name of jesus christ call it jesus said baptize everybody in the name of the father son and holy ghost and i'ma do what jesus said peter said baptize in the name of jesus christ and you can do what peter said if you want to but i'ma do what jesus said i looked at her and i meant i knew this came from the lord because i wasn't smart enough to get this in my head so fast but i said sister i admire your seal and your commitment to serve god and she was like that's right that's right and i told her i said but i promise you if you were there when jesus gave the command you would have done exactly what peter did and baptized in the name of jesus christ not peter the lord called him a devil he denied him three times you can follow somebody like that if you want to but i'mma follow jesus i said sister i promise you you would do what peter did i said i can prove it to you oh oh yeah prove it then i said come on come on i want you to come up here come up here would stand next to me and i went and i called another brother up i said brother i want you to come up here and stand next to me three principal characters in this whole thing one the one who gave the command that was jesus two the one who recorded the command that was matthew and three the one who obeyed the command that was peter i said now us three up here watch this illustration i'm going to give you an instruction tell the lady i'm going to give you an instruction and when i give you this instruction i want you to just follow the instructions very simple and this brother here he's going to re he's going to say the exact words that come out of my mouth just like matthew recorded jesus anybody ready anybody paying attention here we go i took a piece of chalk and i went to the blackboard and i drew a line and i said all right here's my command i said sister you ready i handed her the chalk i said write your name in the blank she look at me puzzle simple very simple you don't have to go to bible college she took the chalk i don't know what this is going to prove hold up hold it brother matthew my exact words write your name in the blank thank you proceed she took the chalk and she went to the line and she wrote janice adams brother matthew what did i say write your name in the blank what did she write janice adams what did i say write your name in the blank what did she write janice adams did anybody hear me mention what her name was i just said write your name in the blank she wrote janice adams without me even saying what it was why cause she knew what the name was they knew what the name of the father was they knew what the name of the son was they knew the name of the holy ghost that name is jesus that name is jesus that name is jesus somebody shout hallelujah why is that name so important neither is there salvation in any other for there is none other name under heaven given among men whereby we must we must be saved it's in the name of jesus christ oh hallelujah hallelujah you said brother east i was baptized in the name of father son of holy ghost no you weren't you just repeated the command you didn't obey it you need to be baptized in the name of jesus christ when today you need to do it today amen your sins this is why the name that's why the devil hates the name your sins are washed away in the name of jesus christ luke chapter 24 verse 46. this is jesus speaking luke 24 about starting at verse 46 jesus said unto them for this reason it is written and this is the reason christ had to suffer and arise from the dead the third day and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached how in his name among all nations starting in jerusalem it's in the name it's in the name repentance and remission remission remission remission is not the same as forgiveness forgiveness is when god said i'm not going to hold it against you but remission is when he erases off your record as if your sin never existed if you want your sins washed away you got to be baptized in the name of jesus christ hallelujah if you want your record clean you've got to go down in the water in the name of jesus christ if you want to be born again you've got to go in the water in the name in the name in the name in the name of jesus christ there is no other name there is no other way there is no other doctrine but it's in the name god said my people which are called by my name the name of jesus is what identifies you the name of jesus is what sanctifies you the name of jesus is what brings the blood to the water where there is no blood there's no remission of sin what can wash away my sin nothing but the blood how can you get the blood it's in the name it's in the name it's in the name hallelujah hallelujah no reason for you to pay for your sin jesus already took care of it there's no reason for you to be punished god already judged him [Applause] glory to god it's god's will hallelujah that you and i get baptized in water in his name titus chapter three and verse number five i'm almost finished titus chapter three and verse number five amen paul wrote the titus he said listen it's not by works of righteousness which we have done listen you can't never be good enough to make it to heaven but as according to his mercy he saved us how did he save us by the washing that's the water by the washing of regeneration friend when you go down in that water in jesus name you're being regenerated you're being reborn you becoming a new creature hallelujah is by the washing of regeneration and the renewing of the holy ghost water and spirit there's no other way amen there are times we were all lost there were times we were all ignorant we didn't know what we were doing or where we were going but god in his mercy the bible says for the for the grace of god brings salvation to every man that you know what that means that means somewhere in your life experience you gonna get exposed to this somebody's gonna come and show you this god loves you too much to let you escape from this great salvation he's gonna bring it to your path he's gonna have somebody knock on your door he gonna have somebody send you something but god's gonna make sure that every one of you gonna have an opportunity to hear this truth and you hearing it today oh you are hearing it today amen but god stepped in our lives and he brought this marvelous this marvelous truth to us he opened the door for us and now brother you got an opportunity to get it right sister you have an opportunity to get it right it's time for your life to change now more than ever with the world in the in the place that it's in and people dying left and right people dying folks going into eternity without god by the multitudes people you know people you care about people you love and can i just say this it doesn't matter how much you love a person you can't love a person into heaven except you're born again you can't get in well uncle joe don't worry about uncle joe worry about you the apostle peter said save yourself you got to save yourself can you say amen oh glory to god well let me bring this on down to a close acts chapter 2. let's go to verse number 37 if you will acts chapter 2 and verse 37. when they heard this are you listening to me take it take it back one verse verse 37 and when they heard this are you listening to me see hearing is just as important as the preaching yeah yeah wake up wait wake up wake up wake up wake up and when they heard this something happened to them they were pricked the holy ghost got a hold of them when they heard it when you listen it gets to you oh lord i don't know if i've been baptized in jesus name i want to go to heaven i want to be

of the apostles men and brothers what shall we do what do i need to do i want to go to heaven i want to be saved what do i need to do here's the answer then peter said unto them verse 38 and i'm saying the same thing that he said repent repent that means stop stop being foolish stop being stubborn stop being hard-headed amen because that's a whole bunch of that going on a whole bunch you know man is one of the most stubbornest creatures that god created god have more trouble with hard-headed people and he created them in his image in noah's day when the flood was about to take place he had no trouble with the animals they went right in whatever you say lord it was hard-headed stubborn stiff-necked people they ain't going in that stinky oh they ain't good in their anger and they all perished and went into eternity into the lake of fire amen repent and be baptized who every one of you everybody in this room if you're here today and you've never been baptized in water in the name of jesus christ he is the command from the holy ghost every last one of you be baptized in the name of jesus christ why why preacher is for the remission of your sins the washing away of your sins
