I am at a loss for words to describe how God is moving in my life right now. He is showing me his glory right now and I cannot get enough. He is letting me experience him in unbelievable ways right now.
In the past couple of weeks I have attended Daystar for two Sunday's and two Wednesday's and all I can say is WOW! He is moving on in me right now. From Jerry Lawson to Derek Dale to Ben Murray to Dan Watson and many, many, others, God is working miracles and making his presence known. I am so incredibly blessed to be at Daystar right now and experiencing such incredibly glory.
Now don't get me wrong, I have been very blessed in my time at St. John's. Pastor Bob, John Richter, Steve Wood and Ben Karwoski and many others have just been incredible to me. I love them for all that they are and everything they stand for and represent, but I just feel like right now my time to experience God's full presence and glory and to continue to grow in my walk and go where he is leading me I must become a member at Daystar and become a part of a new Dream Team. I will miss them all and many others that I cannot name here or I would never get to the end of this post.
Thank you God for leading me to Daystar right now and letting me experience you in new ways. Thank you for giving me the guidance necessary to be receptive to you and your ways and the courage to step out on faith in this next step of my walk with you.

DEATHBED SALVATION? BY STEVE FINNELL
Jesus said Mark 16:16 "He who believes and is baptized will be saved..." (NKJV)
Men say if a man confesses Jesus as the Son of God on his deathbed but does not have time to be baptized in water he will still be saved. If a believer can be saved without water baptism, then why cannot an atheist who was planning on believing in Jesus but died before he had time to believe not be saved?
Do men have the authority to change God's terms for pardon from sins?
THE THIEF AND DEATHBED SALVATION?
The thief lived and died under the old covenant.
To be saved like the thief, a few things have be true.
1. Jesus has to be alive hanging on the cross.
2. You have believe Jesus is Lord and Christ.
3. You have ask Jesus to remembers you when He comes into His kingdom.
4. Jesus has to tell you "today you will be with Me in Paradise." (Luke 23:39-43)(NKJV)
5. To be saved like the thief, you have to be saved without having received the Holy Spirit. (John 7:39 But this He spoke concerning the Spirit, whom those believing in Him would receive ; for as yet the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.) (NKJV)
The thief was not saved under the terms for pardon under the new covenant.
1. The thief was not baptized in water for the forgiveness of his sins. Acts 2:38 Then Peter said, "Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
2. The thief did not believe that God had raised Jesus from the dead; how could he? Jesus was still alive. Romans 10:9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.(NKJV)
Was the thief on the cross saved ? YES HE WAS. Can men living under the new covenant be saved like the thief on the cross? NO THEY CANNOT.
