A Family of Believers United to Serve God



11 And he gave some apostles; and some prophets; and some evangelists; and some pastors and teachers;  12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:  13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ:  Eph. 4:11-13 (KJV)


You and I, my brother and sister, are members of the redeemed Church of Jesus Christ!  We’re also members of Primera Iglesia Bautista, a family of believers united to serve God by sharing the Gospel of Salvation, discipline new believers and equipping the saints.  We each have specific tasks to perform strategically that we may make a significant difference in our world through Christ.  Let’s work together at keeping the unity of the Spirit in Faith.   

 “Churchgoers are like coals in a fire. When they cling together, they keep the flame  
   aglow; when they separate, they die out.”

Read your Bible.

It has been said that in the heart of man is a God shaped void which can only be filled by the presence of God. Mankind has a hunger and thirst for the fulfillment only God can bring but sadly we seek to feed the hunger and quench the thirst with worldly things. God knows what we have need of and has written us a guide to discover how to have fullness of joy and peace. Read your Bible. 4 And these things we write to you that your joy may be full.  1 John 1:4 (NKJV)

Patience is really a prime element of successful living

"Patience is a Virtue" you've heard it said and it's one most of us neglect to seek. Patience is really a prime element of successful living. Good parents are patient parents, good cooks are patient, good teachers are patient, good fishermen are patient, good workers are patient and good Christians are patient. These persons know sometimes you just have to wait for the right moment for the elements of success to assemble themselves. Into each life trails will come but if we learn to wait and trust in God's Provision and Wisdom by faith our lives will be enriched with growth and knowledge. 1 James, a bondservant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, To the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad: Greetings 2 My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trails, 3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. 4 But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.  James 1:1-4 (NKJV)

We need not doubt; God is faithful.

1 Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, 2 looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Hebrews 12:1-2 (NKJV) Testimonials, promoting something beneficial to or for you don't just happen in church. Every TV ad, radio commercial and newspaper ad is aimed at getting your attention and convincing you to make a purchase or subscribe to something new. That is the way of commerce and we accept it as a part of living. Some testimonials you can believe, but remember most are aimed at profiting the one doing the promoting. Christians, the Church are also involved in promoting something they believe will serve to better you; the Gospel of Christ! Through the ages God has pro
