AN INVITATION

THE MORALES FAMILY

Hi there! I am Kelvin Morales, born and raised in Puerto Rico. I am the youngest of three sons born to Manuel and Josefina Morales. My maternal grandfather, Rev. Jose Espada Marrero, was a United Methodist Minister/Pastor for many years and I want to share how I was born again. If you have visited a church or heard Billy Graham preach you must of heard for sure some one explaining how they came out of drugs, alcoholism or from a suicide attempt to accept Jesus as their savior.

"So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God." Rom 14:12

My story is different in that I came from a christian family. My grandfather, a minister, and both of my parents became believers when they were in their teens. You would think that I would be a believer because my parents were believers, but from G_d's perspective that is not how we establish a relationship with Him. One does not inherit a relationship with Him. One must come to Him by grace through faith and not by our own works. 

For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.  Ephesians 2:8-10

As a young boy I recognized my need for forgiveness and a savior who truly has the  power or authority to forgive me. I came to this understanding by the loving kindness of my parents and my pastor Max and Elaine Brenneman and the teachings from the scripture. 

    For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;  Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus. Rom 3:23-26

With this understanding I acknowledged G_d and, Yeshua [Jesus] our Messiah, whom He had sent for the forgiveness of my sin.


Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God? Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent. John 6:28-29

I prayed thanking G_d for providing His sacrifice for the remission of my sin on the cross. If you would believe G_d and accept His sacrifice on the cross for your sin you will be born again like I was as a young boy. Your age does not matter as long as your are conscious of the decision that you are making.

And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. Act 16:30-31

If you make that simple prayer recognizing G_d and the sacrifice He made on the cross, Jesus the Christ / Yeshua HaMasiach, for your sin, you shall be born again.

John 3:3  Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. 

If you don't have a church to go to I invite you to attend my church ...
