Matthew 7:21- 22- 23 Not everyone that saith unto me Lord Lord, shall enter into the Kingdom of Heaven: but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in Heaven. Many will say to me in that Day, Lord, Lord have we not prophesied in thy name? And in thy name cast out devils? And in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

Chaplain Fellowship is about the Great Commission. Do you feel like you are being called to do something that will make a difference, but you don't know where to start? I think that maybe we have all felt that way at some time in our lives. Becoming ordained as a Chaplain and Minister will take you far beyond your wildest imagination, and it will make you a much larger person in the spirit of the Lord, than you ever dreamed you could be. As Chaplains and Ministers if we see someone in need and have the ability to help them and don't, how can we say that the love of Jesus abides in us? Never forget that what we go after here on earth, determines where we go in the hereafter. We make a living from what we get, but we make a life from what we give. Anyone can give without loving, but no one can love without giving.

Matthew 24:4-5 Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in My name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many". Jesus proclaimed that there would be many religious groups going around calling Him the Christ and, in the process leading many people astray! He also warned us of them saying, "Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves". Folks those who hurt you or condemn you for following your calling into the LORDS' ministry can not have the love of Jesus Christ within them. Remember we will know them by their fruit!

Regarding Credentials: We must never forget the history of the man who we know and love, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. He was born in a small village the child of a peasant woman. He worked as a carpenter until He was thirty years old, then for three short years He preached and taught His Fathers' word. He never wrote a book or held any type of public office. He never went to bible school, college or Seminary. The people turned against Him, His friends ran away in fear for their own lives. They nailed Him to a cross between two thieves, and His executioners gambled for the only piece of clothing He owned. He would not be accepted today because He had no credentials according to worldly and canon standards to speak or teach the gospel. Folks twenty centuries have come and gone, yet His ministry is stronger and more alive than ever. For those who really and truly believe in Him, His ministry is the very corner stone of our existence as men and women of God. Please never let anyone tell you that you are not good enough, and do not let anyone stop you from following your calling into the service of HIS ministry.

Matthew 7:15 Many have come preaching Christ for personal gain. Some have come to devour the very people they are trying to reach, all in the name of Christ! Jesus warned us all Folks!

When you begin your work as an ordained chaplain and minister you can be confident that the Lord who has already started a good work in you, will complete it. Please never let anyone tell you that you are not good enough for the Lord's ministry, or that the Lord has not called you into ministry. There is no human being on this earth who has the right to judge who has or have not been called. We all need Jesus as our Lord and Savior in our everyday lives. He is the one who can lift us above the degrading forces of evil in the world that tries to tell us we are not good enough. It is Jesus who holds all things together, including our lives. Become a member and receive your God given right to ordination and license as a legal member of the clergy. Take a leap of faith, and watch your whole world, and the way you see thing, literally transform before your very eyes.

James 2:13 For judgment is without mercy to the one who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment. Does anyone not want a merciful judgment from God, before whom all must stand?

Those Who Share In His Suffering Shall Also Share In His Glory! We believe all Christians have been given spiritual gifts to fulfill their callings. Ministry ordination is a spiritual gift and calling directly from God and is not to be taken lightly. He chooses to call who he will, or to use any instrument, to accomplish His will. Jesus said, I will build My church and the gates of hell will not prevail against it. Never let any man or woman stop you from doing what you have been called to do. When you act upon your calling, you then become a member of HIS Ministry.

As ordained Chaplains and Ministers the compassion, mercy, understanding and love we show for those in need will be the only bible many will every get a chance to see. A wise man once said that our decisions determine our direction, and our direction determines our destiny. Let your direction be true, and let your destiny be one of greatness for the glory of God's kingdom. No one knows when Jesus will return, maybe it will be today or maybe in a 1000 years. His return is something we have no control over. The only control we have in this life is this moment in time, so let us live every moment as if it is our last, for the glory of His kingdom.

John 15:15 henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.

Chaplains are ministers called to serve God's people as commissioned by the sacred Word of God. In Christian grace and duty Chaplains respond with love and compassion to people's needs in their whole existence. Chaplains embrace the understanding that human beings are created in the image of God with uniqueness and freedom to think, act and feel. When we do our best, the word of God is true, He will do the rest.

John 15:16 ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.
