HOW TO BE SAVED

Some people think that going to Church, or doing good works will get them to heaven. These actions are not the means of salvation, but evidences of a Christian life after one is saved. The Bible clearly shows us the process required.The first issue to be dealt with is sin. Romans 3:23 says, "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." The only remedy is asking God’s forgiveness through repentance which is shown by Godly sorrow and a determined change of direction. Luke 13:3 says, "…unless you repent, you will all likewise perish." It is nothing less than the precious Blood of Jesus, shed for mankind on the Cross at Calvary, that washes away our sin. 1 John 1:7 says – "But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin."Believing faith is the next requirement. This is not just mental assent, but is the act of fully believing in your heart. Paul records in Romans 10:9, "That if you confess with your mouth and believe in your heart that God raised Him (Jesus) from the dead, you will be saved." John 3:16 confirms this, saying, "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." The final step is to receive Him, which is the spiritual rebirth. John 1:12 records, "But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become the children of God, even to those who believe in His name." We call this process, being Born Again! Not only did Jesus speak these very words to Nicodemus when he inquired of the Lord, but Paul speaks of a rebirth into a brand new life in 2 Corinthians 5:17, saying, "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation: old things have passed away: behold, all things have become new."All it takes is a simple prayer, spoken with a repentant, submitted and believing heart, to receive Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour together with His promise of eternal life. You can settle this issue right now by praying this prayer – Lord Jesus, I thank you that you died for my sins and I ask that you forgive me and cleanse me with your precious Blood. I renounce every spirit not of you and turn away from all sin. I believe you are the Son of God who died for me, and I receive you into my life now as my personal Lord and Saviour. I open the door of my heart and ask you to come in. I close the door of my heart with you inside. I thank you I’m born again as a child of God. Help me in my walk with you and lead me according to your will, in Jesus Name, Amen. If you prayed that prayer, and meant it in your heart, you are now a brand new Christian. You have now become a part of the most amazing group of people on earth – the Body of Christ!

BARRY R SMITH

This site is dedicated to the fond memory of the late and great Barry R Smith and the valuable resources that he provided in helping me to understand the end of times Bible prophecies.

Statement by Andrew Smith on behalf of the Smith Family
First and foremost, Barry was more than a public figure to us, he was an extremely loving husband to Mum (May) - and a dedicated father to his children. He traveled extensively; speaking internationally, but maintained daily contact with each member of the family wherever possible…we spoke with him two hours before he died in a hospital in Worchester, England. He had been unwell for a few days, and was under observation when he went to be with Jesus. He knew he was about to leave having told a friend (Apollo Perelini) two days before "I’m really tired Apollo, I’ll be going home soon". Apollo said "Back to NZ Uncle Barry?" He replied "No – to be with my Lord". His legacy – is that he has left his family completely secure with regard to where he has gone – and we’re thrilled for him, we’ll be with him again soon! And – he loved people – teaching us that people are far more important than material things. Wherever I go I meet people who have come to know Jesus as a result of my Dad, through his preaching, books and videos or meeting him personally. He wasn’t interested in being popular – he just wanted people to know how to find peace with God! He made the gospel very clear…kind of like the last of the Mohicans in terms of his no nonsense approach in presenting the gospel. Known for relating current events to Bible prophecy, he didn’t like the title of ‘prophet’...simply, he wasn’t one. Barry called himself a talker – who gave a commentary of world events and Bible prophecy. He wasn’t loved by everybody – some accused him of scaring people into the Kingdom of God – he maintained that going to hell was scary, but that the alternative, the gift of God, was brilliant – and that people could always readjust their motives later. Out of the pulpit – Barry was a real character. He didn’t just talk about being a Christian, he was one. Those who knew him personally knew him as a humorous, funny man – always laughing or speaking about Jesus! His favourite verse – John 3:30, "He must increase, but I must decrease." In the last year he talked about going to Heaven a lot – he always has really. Back in the 80’s he had a quadruple bypass operation which extended his life by around 15 years. We, his family, are grateful! We have been quietly preparing for Dad’s departure for some time – I spoke with him by phone a couple of hours before he died and he was in great spirits, although weak as a result of a minor heart attack. He was hoping to get on his flight home today (Friday 28th)… Am I proud of him? Definitely – as a family we all are! He was a real man of God in and out of the pulpit. He left no doubt as to his destination and desire to be with Jesus. He made it clear that we can see him again soon…a very responsible man. We miss him, and there is a lot to sort out, but he prepared us for this event and in his own words, "This is not the end – it’s just the beginning." The funeral will be held in Blenheim, 11am Thursday 11th July 2002 at Stadium 2000, Kinross Street, and Blenheim. This is to be confirmed.. Andrew E Smith
