(With Pastor Ronnie Lambert and Worship Leader Ray Batson - First Baptist Paducah, Texas Revival - September 2007.)
Wherever Ministries is committed to revival and renewal in the local church. Our primary aim is to assist churches, individuals, and communities in recognizing their need for spiritual awakening through the preaching of God's Word. We are ready to travel wherever to fulfill this calling - small church or big church, from Abbeville, Alabama to Zwolle, Louisiana and all points in between.
Revivalist Robert Barge believes the following:
++ Jesus Christ is God's only son, born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, died on the cross for the sins of all humanity, buried on Friday, resurrected from the dead on Sunday morning!
++ Jesus Christ is the only way to have a personal relationship with God. He said of Himself, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father accept through me." (John 14:6 - NIV - italics mine)
++ Faith in Jesus Christ is the only way to be saved. "Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved." (Acts 4:12)
++ We were created by God to enjoy eternal fellowship with Him.
++ God loves every person. He sent His Son Jesus to live so that we might see God - He sent Him to die so that we might be forgiven of our sins.
++ The Bible is God's Holy Word. It is true cover-to-cover. God's Holy Spirit speaks to us through the reading, study, teaching, and preaching of his Word. "All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work." (2 Timothy 3:16-17)
++ Jesus not only wants to be your Savior - He demands to be your Lord. We are called to follow Jesus Christ with reckless abandon. His call to discipleship is just as viable today as it was when first cast before the original twelve: "If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me." (Luke 9:23)
++ The Christian life is the greatest adventure one could ever live.
++ Every person has an eternal destination - either heaven or hell. We will all one day give an account of our lives before God - either when we die or when Christ returns.
++ Every Christian is called to be a minister of the gospel through the church. We were gifted to serve at spiritual birth. "It was (Christ) who gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers, to prepare God's people for works of service so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ." (Ephesians 4:11-13)
++ Christians are all called to be His witnesses. Christ can use your life now to make a difference for eternity.
