Immanuel Baptist Church
is a local chapter of the
Reformers Unanimous Addictions Program

Reformers Unanimous is a dynamic ministry that gives those addicted by "anything" hope and power to be set free.  There is a RU Meeting once every week at Immanuel Church, and a weekly outreach that goes into the local Detention Center.  God is blessing and using this local body of believers to spread the good news of JESUS CHRIST to the world around us.

Are you born again?  Are you saved?  If this temporary physical life should end today, where would your immortal soul go?  For "answers" to these questions, then click here.

WHAT IS “BEING BORN" AGAIN?
 
 Everyone is concerned about their physical life, but few think about their life once they leave this earth! There are only two destinations once we die, heaven or hell. If we would avoid hell, we must do what Jesus said in John 3:7, “Ye must be born again.”

 When a person is born again, his body becomes the temple of the Holy Spirit of God. "What? Know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own” (1 Cor 6:19)?"   
 

The Temple had three parts consisting of the outer court where external worship took place.  The new temple, the body of believers, also has three parts. "And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ" (1 Thessalonians 5:23). Our body corresponds to the outer court of the Temple where the physical sacrifice is made. Romans 12:1-2 says to those who are “born again” to present their bodies as a living sacrifice.

The soul is the mind, will, and emotion which corresponds to the inner court of the Temple. The soul directs the body. Since sin has affected our mind, will, and emotion, it leads the body in wrong behavior. This is why a “born again” person must "renew their mind" by the Word of God so we can discern God’s will.
