PASTOR WAYNE WRITES:
Dear Heritage Family,
I want to rejoice when I read the reports of a “flash revival” or “massive baptism at a beach” or 100’s of children were saved during Vacation Bible School, but honestly, I cringe. Unless those “decisions” are qualified and manifested into actual “conversions,” according to Matthew 25:15, those well-meaning efforts could make that person twice as hard to reach with the true gospel.
The validation of our salvation is not manifested by a lost person’s decision but rather by the total transformation of their lives. They no longer walk according to the course of this world, doing whatever they want to satisfy the desires of the flesh. They walk in the pursuit of holiness, without which no one will see God.
The title of this sermon series is “How Should We Then Live?” The answer, of course, is to live “in Christ” so that others see the hope within us and be drawn to Him. This sermon will address “The Validation of Our Salvation.”
If you view the sermons on our website, www.theheritagechurch.org, you can click on the sermon title on the second page to find the sermon study guide in another format. The Sunday morning live stream starts at 10:00 AM.
We highly value your role in sharing these study guides with others. We are always eager to hear how God uses these sermons to encourage others in their spiritual growth. Please let us know how we can help you!

PASTOR WAYNE’S COMMENTS ON THE NEWS:
THE WATCHMEN’S REPORT
News Stories that Connect with Biblical Prophecy
By Wayne J. Edwards, June 22, 2024
My Fellow Watchmen,
The majority of today’s media outlets are bought and paid for by the current administration to promote their Marxist agenda. In the art of war, it is not only permissible; it is policy to lie to the enemy and make no mistake about it: those who love God and love America ARE the enemy of what has become the most corrupt government in modern history. Their goal is to replace what was once the greatest nation on the face of the earth – the envy of the world, with liberty and justice for all, with a Marxist dictatorship where we will “own nothing and be forced to be happy with it,” as it is today in Cuba, Colombia, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Honduras, Panama – where the country is operated as a private commercial enterprise for the exclusive profit of the ruling class.
I know it is hard to “keep the faith” amidst such spiritual warfare, especially when we see how the devil’s lies have infiltrated and infected every facet of our lives to the point that we are now a little “timid,” if not “terrified” to say anything about it. A nurse exposed the Texas Children’s Hospital for allegedly using Medicaid benefits to offer children free sex change operations. Instead of investigating the medical professionals who were reportedly abusing children as well as misusing Medicaid funds, FBI agents came to her home and threatened her if she continued to speak out. In other words, if the government says it’s okay to perform such radical surgeries on children who are not mature enough to comprehend the life-long consequences, it doesn’t matter what God’s Word says, and who are we to differ with that?
Having abandoned God’s Word as the only source of absolute truth, such “group-think” is the core curriculum for public education from Head Start to Harvard, the primary matter of every employment manual, and it is slowly but surely changing the biblical worldview of every major denomination. This is today’s spiritual warfare between God’s truth and Satan’s lies, i.e., “good vs. evil.” Years ago, it was alcohol, tobacco, gambling, fornication, divorce, then drugs, pornography, rock music, and casual sex. Today, it is homosexuality, lesbianism, homosexual marriage, and gender dysfunction. When a behavior the Bible says is sinful – or even outright rebellion against God, becomes widely accepted, adopted, and then endorsed through the Marxist-controlled venues of media education, and then promoted and advertised through retail marketing, as the Apostle Paul described in Roman 1:18-32, such group-think will lead a society right into the very gates of hell, and that’s where we are!
Unless God intervenes, denominations and churches will continue to fall away from the fundamental doctrines of the Christian Faith, and nominal Christians will continue to fall into unbelief and then into total apostasy, from which there is no return. The primary goal of every local church is to serve as the “Pillar and Ground of Truth,” – not group-think! Warning!!! Today’s false preachers will continue to depart from the truth of God’s Word, so pray for the spirit of discernment.
