"A Little Bit About Us..."

~ A BRIEF SUMMARY OF OUR MINISTRY HERE IN CEBU ~

* Clearlight Ministries is a nondenominational missionary outreach to the local churches and the unreached and unsaved in the Philippines. We work mostly with local churches and hold weekly Bible studies in various venues within the city. These Bible studies are designed to help each person come to a clear knowledge and understanding of salvation and discipleship: What it means to be a victorious Christian.

* Part of our ministry is writing, printing, and distributing Gospel literature and teaching materials in both English and Cebuano. We provide these tracts, pamphlets, and booklets FREE OF CHARGE to all local churches and interested ministries.

* We have conducted numerous feeding-programs for the indigenous poor, mostly in the squatter areas of Caretta, North Reclaimation Area, Cebu City. This includes child-evangelism and Bible-studies for the families of the children.

* We have provided a TV, VCR, cabinet, and videos to the government hospitals here in Cebu [Cebu City Medical Center and Southern Island Hospital]. This is for the use of all local churches and the hospital chaplains which have an outreach to the poor and needy in these hospitals.

* We also distribute for free certain DVD's that emphasis the need for REVIVAL in the local churches. Particularly the public domain DVD titled, "THE REVIVAL HYMN," which is a compilation of the best prophetic voices from the 20th Century on the need and necessity of TRUE REVIVAL in communities and churches.

* We also minister and preach from time to time at various local churches within Cebu Province. Mostly we are here to assist and support the Gospel churches within the Central Philippine islands, including house churches and home-church fellowships.

* The other aspect of our ministry and calling is MUCH PRAYER and INTERCESSION for Cebu, the Philippines, America, Israel, and the nations. We consider it our solemn duty and calling to lift these and many other needs to The Throne of Grace. NOTHING of value happens unless it is truly bathed IN PRAYER before GOD.

Peace and blessing be to all those who love the Lord Jesus Christ, YESHUA, THE MESSIAH.

THE SEVEN PILLARS OF WISDOM...
(Proverbs 9:1, and Psalm 15:1-5)

And then add to this: fearlessness ... fearing only GOD: which is always true courage and true wisdom combined.

REMEMBER always Who & What GOD IS ... and that you are nothing apart from HIS Life and Good Grace.

GOD Is The Supreme Being ... and The Moral Center of the Universe.

Morality *always* involves and revolves around *right relationships*.

Wisdom has built her house; she has carved out its seven pillars.
~ Proverbs 9:1 [NLT]

THE GOSPEL: ~ A BRIEF AND CLEAR SUMMATION . . .

1) you cannot save yourself. you are separated from God
and guilty of many sins against God. your very nature is fallen, rebellious, and offensive to God.

2) God Himself has made a full provision to rescue you from an otherwise hopeless situation. God became a man in the person of His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, Who Is the Eternal Word; He vicariously lived a perfect life and died an atoning death on your behalf...PROVIDED you receive this great gift by faith, trust, and with humility and a repentant willing-heart.

"Truly, truly I say unto you,
UNLESS you humble your heart and receive the Kingdom of GOD within you...
you shall IN NO WAY ENTER there in."
~ Jesus of Nazareth ~

3) God has given His Son to save us; He also offers to us the Holy Spirit to sanctify and seal us. * We are born of God's Spirit when we willingly repent and receive Jesus as Savior and Lord.* - THEN we receive a new nature, - a new heart, - which is reflected in NEW DESIRES to obey God and honor Him above all. ~ Thus, our PRIMARY allegiance and priority in life is to serve and honor the Lord Jesus Christ NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS and NO MATTER WHAT comes our way.

4) Only those who receive Christ shall enter God's Kingdom;
those *who reject* Him will pay for their own sins; thus will all guilt will be imputed to *them* and not to Christ.

5) SALVATION is ENTIRELY A GIFT OF GRACE and mercy IN CHRIST. No one can earn it; it is THE GIFT OF GOD given to the repentant heart who truly "calls upon the name of the LORD [Jesus Christ]" to grant them mercy and forgiveness. As the Scripture so clearly says, "you MUST be born-again!"

Please see these Scriptures:
2 Corinthians 5:17-21; John 3:2-8,36;
Acts 2:37-40; and Isaiah 55:6,7.

~ UNTO THE UTTERMOST ~

The Maker of the Universe
As Man, for man, was made a curse.
The demands of Law which HE had made:
UNTO THE UTTERMOST HE PAID.

His holy fingers made the bough
Which grew the thorns that crowned His brow.
The nails that pierced His hands were mined
In secret places HE designed.

He made the forest whence there sprung
The tree on which His body hung.
He died upon a cross of wood,
Yet made the hill on which it stood.

The sky that darkened o'er His head
BY HIM above the earth was spread.
The sun that hid from Him its face
BY HIS DECREE was poised in space.

The spear which spilled His precious blood
was tempered by the fires of God.
The grave in which His form was laid,
was hewn from rocks His hands had made.

The throne on which He now appears
Was His from everlasting years,
And now new glory crowns His brow:
And EVERY knee
To Him
Shall bow.

~ This next poem, as far as my view is concerned, is the greatest poem ever written on the awesome sacrifice and atonement of our Lord Jesus Christ for the sins of the world.

~ I can never read this poem without something stirring very deep within my soul, and tears welling in my eyes.

~ It describes a certain agony beyond words . . .

~ THE DESPAIR OF CHRIST ~

"...He Who knew no sin..."
~ 2 Cor.5:21 ~

This, the whip clawing his back,
gnawing his flesh. This we have known.
Many have been so reviled.
And the thorns gouging his brow. Yes.
The nails like flaming bolts
through the soft places. Yes, even this.
And the gambling, the nakedness, the shame,
the scorn, the mockery, the hatred.
Yes, even this many have known
and tasted thereof in the bitterest draught.

But that Father-darkness, - the sudden clap
of infinite night; that blackness heaving
its hulk against the heart of Christ.
No.
That Father-silence: a night forest gone suddenly
quiet with doom;
every anguished plea, every thought thudding
hard against towering stone.
No.
That Father-anger: black, silent flames
searing through to the marrow;
the breath of a grizzly just before the bite.
No.
And that Son-cry: an anguished voice calling
distantly through the storm;
the Beloved in the furnace, reaching, reaching
with all His strength, yet falling... falling...
the pure white dove tumbles before the buckshot;
the Lamb strains helpless as the knife begins its slash:

"MY GOD, MY GOD! Why hast Thou forsaken me!"

No. Never. No man has known this.

Thanks be unto GOD, because of Him we need never know it.
