I've created a facebook page for our use during the coming years. Please go to www.facebook.com/BarnabasImpact to join.


 31 December 2013 Tuesday, last day to get right with God this year. I've prepared these notes for a review.  Class Notes for The One Year 365 Bible Class 2013, 31 December 2013.

Thank you for participating in our class and reading through the One Year Bible.  This has been a good year.  We have read, seen and heard the Word of God more clearly and by that we have been drawn closer to our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. I sincerely hope and pray that we will discipline ourselves and continue to read daily through our KJV  Bible from 1 January 2014 until we hear the Voice calling us up into heaven, Maranatha!

Hopefully you will continue to refine and then to write out your personal testimony.  Consider starting with the day your life was CHANGED and brag on how God used scriptures to confront, convince and comfort you unto salvation. 

Read again those verses given during the year to provoke your interest.  Remember: John 3:12, James 4:17, II Corn 5:17-21, II Tim 3:16-17, Col 3:15-17, Phil 3:10, Acts 4:10-12,  John 3:36; 15:5-7,  Psalm 19; 119:9-11 &138:2, Amos 3:3, Hab 2:3, 1stChr 4:9, Jer 29:11, 1stPet 2:17, 2ndPet 1:12, 1stJohn 1:1-10, Rom 3:23;5:8; 6:23 & 10:9-13,  Hebrews 10:22-25 and 9:27.  Discipline yourself to look every day/AM to the East and say Psalm 19.  Walk every day in view of the Rapture and in II Corinthians 13:14.

A thought to consider is "Faith is the ability to feel so sure of God and His Word that no matter how dark the day, there is no doubt as to the outcome."

Each of you will be an asset to the Sunday School class you join and attend. Victory Baptist Church will be strengthened because you are more like Christ now that when we began 1 January 2013. Please remember the military personnel and their families.

Get right, Be right, Do right and don't quit. Sincerely for Christ's sake,
Powell Johnson

22 December 2013 Sunday PM-Wow what a great day. Hope you read your Bible to know God and attended a God centered church to be taught and edified. You should prepare yourself by reading through the KJV Bible every year and that will allow The Holy Spirit to teach you God's Truth so that you not get led astray. PLEASE read your Bible first before you study any lesson. Learn God's names, attributes, traits, promises and warnings. Hide His Word in your heart and meditate.

Thanks to all of you from the USA, Poland, Russia, India, Panama, Turkey, Ukraine, Belarus, Australia, France, Taiwan, Germany, Greece, Malaysia, Bermuda, Spain, United Kingdom and Singapore who have looked at this blog.  My sincerest hope is that you have been drawn by The Holy Spirit of God to know God's Word thereby coming to salvation by faith in the finished work of The Lord Jesus Christ. I pray you continue to read to know Him and grow in the grace of The Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God The Father and have communion with The Holy Ghost.  Look at 1stPeter 3:8-22. I wish for you all a Merry Christmas, Happy Holy Days and a blessed time with family.

Lesson # 52 will be the last lesson for this year for the One Year 365 Bible Class  29 December 2013 I'm not sure what you gained from this year of reading the One Year Bible, but I've enjoyed sharing with you God's Truths and watch some of you joy and grow while others were overcome.  Please let us never be to proud to stop and to linger with those who are compassed about with Satan's dart and threats. This is not a new commandment. Read to know God, Get right/Be right/Do right and don't quit.

MON 23  Zechariah 4:1-5:11; Revelation 14:1-20; Psalm 142:1-7; Proverbs 30:21-23; The lesson for today is Psalm 142:4. How does this apply to God? When does a lost man know this? How does a saved man prevent this in his own life?

We are closer to the end than when we began. Congrats for staying by the STUFF! You are more aware of God, His names and attributes, by reading to know Him than the majority of the penmen used by God. Few people get to hold, read, see, touch and know the mind and will of The Lord God Almighty. 

We are blessed! Read Psalm 1!  NOTE, today at Micah 6:8 the will of God "He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?"

TUE 17  Nahum 1:1-3;19; Revelation 8:1-13; Psalm 136:1-26; Proverbs 30:7-9; Believe that The God written about in Nahum is our Saviour. How is your fear factor of your Holy Father?

WED 18  Habakkuk 1:1-3:19; Revelation 9:1-21; Psalm 137:1-9;Proverbs 30:10; Watch for those obstacles that get into your prayer chamber. Look to see Hebrews 9:27 in Habakkuk.

Recall your reading in Daniel about the 10 horn beast and seek to see God's power as written in Revelation 13. Beware of the trinity of man 666. Are your prayers as incense in heaven today? Is v8 of Psalm 140 so in your life? What do you marvel at as respect to the proverb?

Prepare for the Holy Days. Maranatha! Get gifts. Give gifts. Share The Lord Jesus Christ with your family, friends, neighbors and those that despitefully abuse you.  Be grateful for your greatest gift, salvation.  I've heard "Don't trade in what you want most for what you want at the moment." I hope to see you in heaven, perhaps today, perhaps tonight, perhaps

Wednesday 11 December 2013, Friday is on the way and Sunday is coming. Hopefully you have been reading your KJV Bible and paying attention to the truths recorded in the book of Amos. Seven times you will find the word beth-el.  Learn that this refers to the house of God. Beth=house and El refers to God. The concern is that most miss seeking the EL of the bethel. Until you KNOW God as Saviour you are lost and condemned already. Read John 3:1-36. We are taught to honor the builder and not the building. Marvel not, ye must be born again. Read The Bible to know God.

Monday 9 December 2013 Friday will be here soon and Sunday is coming.  Hope that you have been reading your BIBLE to know God and that The Lord has used some of the question in the lessons to provoke you to consider your preparation for eternity .

We did not have services this Sunday due to ice and travel restrictions. We are still stranded (Sat-Mon) in our home and yet the ice on our drive is still 2" thick and the temp is 32. We are safe, secure and waiting for the trumpet, Maranatha.

 We have finished reading the 4 Major Prophets and now begin the 12 Minor Prophets of the Old Testament. The minor prophets were designated minor due to the length of the writings. Look to see how the Gentiles are included with the Jews. Look for the Gospel to be presented. Be aware of the signs indicating David's rule, repentance offered to a sinful nation, and announcements of the birth of Jesus.  When you read the Revelation of Jesus Christ focus on Him and not just His. Practice praying back the Psalms and Proverbs.

MON 9  Joel 1:1-3:21;Revelation 1:1-20; Psalm 128:1-6; Proverbs 29:18; How does v15 cause you to tremble? How do you see John 3 similar to chapter 2? Who is in the valley of decisions?

As you read this week I pray you seek diligently to know God.  This lesson #49 will be discussed in our Sunday School Class at Victory Baptist Church Sunday 8 December 2013. Remember, prepare your heart and confess your sins, ask for The Holy Spirit to teach you as you READ your Bible. Be sensitive, admire God's handiwork while you focus on Him.  What attributes of God are you seeking to find this week as you read to know God?

Consider How God used Daniel to interpret dreams of men and how angels interpreted dreams for Daniel.  Focus on God as you read about the beasts,  Belshazzar, Darius and Cyrus.  Why do you obey God and God's Word?

MON 2  Daniel 9:1-10:21; 1stJohn 2:18-3:6; Psalm 121:1-8; Proverbs 28:27-28;How do you pray after you read v9:3-23? What did you learn about your lifestyle from v10:11-15? What promises did you gain in John's letter and the psalm? Does the proverb impact your attitude about stewardship today?

How do you apply the instruction given in John 4?Did the Psalm make you feel guilty? Is the proverb applicable today?

As we read Hosea, know that he was first of the 12 minor prophets and he was a prophet unto the Northern kingdom following Elijah, Elisha, Jonah and Amos. We will read about Israel's' idolatry, wickedness, captivity and the future restoration. God hates sin but loves sinners. How did God use Hosea's family life to show Israel's sin?

THU 5  Hosea 1:1-3:5;1st John 5:1-21; Psalm 124:1-8;Proverbs 29:5-8;Is it always easy to obey God? How is this similar to the parable of the prodigal son?

29 November 2013 Friday and Sunday is coming!  This lesson # 48  One Year 365 Bible Class will be conducted 1 December 2013. Hope you are enjoying God and gaining confidence in Him whom you have believed. As you read Daniel remember he was taken captive from Jerusalem and was in  Babylon 605-536 B.C.  God made many prophecies through visions for Daniel concerning the Gentile Nations and for the Jews while in captivity concerning the world's events prior to the Messianic Kingdom and of the end of the world. A key verse is 4:17 and unfolds as God is shown ruling the world.
 ** Remember read your Bible FIRST, then consider the lesson questions and comments. We are to Read to KNOW God, not just the Truths about Him.

Mon 25  Daniel1:1-2:23; 1st Peter 3:10-4:6; Psalm 119:71-80; Proverbs28:14; Watch for how God deals with man  through dreams. How have/do you sanctify God in your heart? How does Psalm 119:71 & 77 relate to Daniel? Are you fearfully happy?

Tue 26  Daniel 2:24-3:30; 1st Peter 4:7-5:14; Psalm 119:81-95; Proverbs 28:15-16; What caused Daniel to intercede for others? What did you learn about God from  Daniel 3:29? How does Maranatha relate to 1st Peter 4,5? How does Psalm 119:89 impact your hope? Why do you hate covetousness?

Wed 27  Daniel 4:1-37; 2nd Peter 1:1-21; Psalm 119:96-112; Proverbs 28:17-18; Why was this written in Aramaic? What names of God did you discover today?  Because you read Peters letter how have you added to your faith? How was the triunity of God shown today?  Do you boldly state Psalm 119:102? How ought the saved to walk?

Thu 28  Happy Thanksgiving Day   Daniel 5:1-31; 2nd Peter 2:1-22; Psalm 119:113-131; Proverbs 28:19-20; What did you learn about man and how are we different from God? What does God hate?

How does Psalm 119:8-12 relate to Peter's admonition of remembrance? Does your zeal for the LORD and His Word  consume you?  How is your eye?

               1st John is written to the believer. This letter was an encouragement to believers to remember Jesus as God. Learn from the warnings about people you encounter. Note the similarity with 2Corninthians 5:17-21.  Note what you learn and know from these verses.

Sat 30  Daniel 7:1-28; 1st John 1:1-10; Psalm 119:156-176; Proverbs 28:23-24;How has God used Daniel's vision of these beast to impacted your faith?

Sun 1Dec  Daniel 8:1-27; 1st John 2:1-17; Psalm 120:1-7; Proverbs 28:25-26; Why did God record this dream of Daniel? How did you gain confidence in your eternal security by reading 1stJohn? Who is the psalmist praying for in v2? Who do you trust?

We read to know God!  The world, nations and people may know God as Elohim, The Creator and Sustaining God yet never come to the saving knowledge of God as Jehovah. There is only ONE (1) God and He has ONLY (1) Son and His name is Jesus and He is the way, the truth, and the life and NO man cometh unto the Father except by Him. The Jews drew nigh to Elohim with their lips but their hearts were far from Him as Jehovah.  Jehovah, The Lord God Almighty, wants you to come to Him by faith, believing that He IS and will forgive you your sin and give you HIS righteousness as a gift of eternal life. Hear, believe and receive Him today. pj

Monday 25 November 2013, the summer is gone and some are not yet saved, Friday is closer AND Sunday is coming.

Spend some time and prepare a list of your blessings that God has bestowed on you and your family since last year.  List them in columns as "yesterday", "last week", "last month" and even since the day you were born again into the family of God, then count your blessings and name them 1 by1. Take time to be grateful as you practice YOUR stewardship. Bless someone who you think does not deserve to be blessed. Read to know God.  If you are a son of God, act right.

To all the veterans around the world, salute. To all the born again, Maranatha. To all the unbelievers, Anathema. Read 1st Corinthians 16:22 and weep or shout for joy. I pray all that have not turned to God for salvation do so before it is too late. Read John chapter 3 and believe and act upon the promise of God's Word.

This is Lesson #46 for the days 11-17 November. Please read your Bible FIRST, then consider the lesson's comments and questions.

James will cause us to consider our faith as we face our trials. James was half brother to Jesus, converted after the death/resurrection of Jesus and was one of the leaders in the Jerusalem church. Some have suggested James to be a practical guide to Christians life and conduct (Jensen's Survey of the New Testament, pg427). Look for how faith is at work, 1:22 & 2:26.

Every soul is created in the image of God. Every soul will die. God died for every soul so that they might be redeemed. Those souls that are "born again by faith according to the scriptures" will NEVER die. There is ONLY One(1) Son of God and his name is Jesus. He is the Christ of Jehovah and the soon coming King of kings and He is Lord! Maranatha in love.

12 November  2013, Tuesday, soon it will be Friday and Sunday is coming, summer is over and all are not saved. I've missed sharing with you the blessings of God because we have read to know HIM! WOW, reading Isaiah, Jeremiah, Lamentation , Psalms, Proverbs and now Ezekiel is like setting at the 50 yard line of the championship game watching the give and take in the greatest/last game of life on earth. Players are giving all to win a prize that will fade, fail, deceive and never satisfy.

We read to know The TRUTH! Please look again to read Proverbs 3:1-12 and then re-read v5-6-7, stop to confess your sins, claim 1stJohn 1:9, accept God's forgiveness/cleansing and THEN act like your are (if you are) a child of The King of Glory.  Johnson's rule: Get/Be right, Do right and don't quit. We read to know God.

I very strongly suggest you read through the KJV Bible in a year(One Year Bible format) and then read through the KJV Bible (One Year Bible format) again, again, again until you have the mind of Jesus Christ, know the perfect will of God and are walking in agreement with God being led by your right hand in constant fellowship enjoying the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God The Father and having communion with the Holy Ghost. We can have this and then heaven to come!!! Maranatha!!

Enjoy Psalm 19 and John 3:12 each and every day. Share your blessings with others. Develop a Bible friendship with a sure strong Christian and allow iron to sharpen iron as you grow in grace and knowledge of God and your Saviour The Lord Jesus Christ. The ONLY true, tested and proven Teacher is The Holy Spirit. Read to know God and believe what you read in the Bible. luvpj

****  Christ  first coming to earth was a crucial event in the world history; His second coming will be a climatic event. He came the first time to die and be raised to life.  When He comes again, it will be to gather to Himself those saved by His death.  Paul sums up all the joys and glories of this ingathering by saying simply, "And thus shall we be with the Lord (1Thess.4:17).  It had to be a thrilling experience for the apostle to write the Thessalonians letters' and share such a message.    1Thessalonians: The Lord Jesus is coming again.   2Thessalonians: He has not come yet.    Copied  from chapter 17 The Thessalonians Epistles, Jensen's Survey of the New Testament, pg143

** Jeremiah; Halley's Bible Handbook, Classic Edition, pg 307, God's Final Effort to Save Jerusalem. Jeremiah lived about a hundred years after Isaiah. Isaiah had saved Jerusalem from Assyria. Jeremiah tried to save it from Babylon, but failed.  "Jeremiah was called to the prophetic office (626B.C.), Jerusalem was partly destroyed (606), further devastated (597); finally burned and desolated (586).  Jeremiah lived through these terrible forty years, "the close of the monarchy," "the death agony of a nation"; a pathetic , lonely figure, God's last measure to the Holy City which had become hopelessly and fanatically attached to Idols; carelessly crying that if they would repent God would save them from Babylon.  Thus, as Assyria had been the background of Isaiah's ministry, so Babylon was the background of Jeremiah's ministry."

20 September 2013-Friday and Sunday is coming! Hope you are reading your KJV Bible. Reading this AM to know God it was made plain in Proverbs 23:23 "Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding.", that we are to be stewards of all that we have received.

The question is what have you and I been and done this AM to glorify God? If not, why not? All the TRUTH we need to know is at our disposal in and from the KJV Bible. If a person lacks wisdom and then seeks instruction from one other than The Lord God Almighty, they will not have true understanding. The Lord Jesus Christ said He was The Light. Please don't walk in darkness. If you have been saved and have this Light, don't walk apart from Him. Walk in agreement with God  and enjoy the fruits of the Spirit as promised at Galatians 5:22-26. Read your Bible to know God. Allow the Holy Spirit to show you the Lord Jesus Christ, seek Him early, while He may be found.

PJ's rule: get right, BE right, Do right and don't quit. We have all this and heaven to look forward to-Maranatha. Hope to see you in heaven today, luvpj

18 September 2013, Wednesday, Friday will be here soon and then Sunday. Hope you have been reading your Bible to know God. Remember, read the Bible before the lesson. The thoughts and question in the lesson are there to provoke you to consider when, how, why God demonstrated that He cares for you. It has been said "that what you think about God is the most important thing you think."
I've attached Lesson # 38,One Year-365  Bible Class, as we read 16-22 September.

The critical issue before all people is when they die and stand before Elohim, Creator God and He ask the,"Why should I let you enter into heaven?" what will your reply be?

Read Hebrews 9:27 and admit/agree that you will die and you will be called into account for what you did in response to Jehovah's offer of salvation in view of Jesus' birth, life, death, resurrection and ascension into heaven. Read Ephesians 2:8-10, Romans 5:5, 6:23, 10:8-13 and John 1:12. Read to know God. Believe what you read from the King James Bible.

 

8 September 2013, Monday and we are on our way to Friday and then Sunday will be here, yea! Hope you were able to attend your church this past Sunday to hear biblical preaching that glorified God as Jesus was lifted up and you were edified.  Read to know God. In reality you can never hear or learn any Bible Truth apart from the Bible. Seek the leadership of The Holy Spirit as you read so that when ANY person speaks to you about how God works YOU will be edified or warned. It is your opportunity to know Elohim as your creator and Jehovah as your Saviour.
Read and believe II Timothy 3:16-17. Read and believe John chapters 1, 3 & 10.

I've included Lesson # 37 from our One Year-365-Bible Class for your encouragement as you read this week. Believe what you read (BE) and then live (DO) as a "saved" child of The King, as a priest, a minister, ambassador and son of God. You are salt and light. 

According to Jensen's Survey of The Old Testament, chapter 20,pg 319, Isaiah: The Glorious Throne of Jehovah The Holy One, "of all the writing prophets, Isaiah is justly accounted the greatest. His prophecy is one of the longest, is quoted more frequently than any other in the New Testament, and he more often than any other prophet tell of the coming Messiah. Isaiah prophesied for about fifty years during very critical times of both kingdoms, Israel and Judah." Suggest we note verses1:4 and 6:3. Passages from this book are quoted by Jesus, Matthew, John The Baptist, the Apostle John, the Ethiopian treasurer and Paul.

During these 7 days take time to seek God early while He may be found. Seek to be amazed at His handiwork as you read Psalm 19. Recall the promises that you  sense that are applicable in your life. Be quick to confess, repent and allow The Holy Spirit to expose your most intimate thoughts, desires and deeds. Believe what you read (BE) and then live (DO) as a child of The King, as a priest, a minister, ambassador and son of God. You are salt and light.   We all need to read to know Him as our Jehovah.

*Ecclesiastes: Vanity Under The Sun, But Hope in God, Jensen's Survey of The Old Testament pg 295; "Ecclesiastes is a book that investigates life and tells what kind of life is worth living.  It is the quest of a soul who sees only vanity all about him until his eyes are opened to the hope offered by God.

*INFO-- According to Jensen's Survey of The Old Testament, chapter 19, Song of Solomon: Union and Communion, pg 305; "A healthy balance in Bible study is maintained when the Son of Solomon is studied along with Ecclesiastes.
