To those passing through and may be confused as to what TM is and stands for, a few highlights pulled from prior mod and admin posts;

Tentmaker Ministries' goal is to be a witness to the Ultimate Victory of Jesus Christ to the world, and a respect for the scriptures, which testify to His sacrificial life, death, and glorious resurrection, are a vital part of that message.


Tentmaker is a Biblical, Christian, Victorious Gospel of Jesus Christ, Ultimate Reconciliation Site and Discussion Forum.  We believe some come to faith in Christ in this lifetime, the rest through whatever means necessary in the next age, as "every knee will bow and every tongue confess Jesus as Lord."

We recognize there are translational issues in the scriptures, as well as many different viewpoints, levels of understanding, and varying degrees of levels of Spirit-revelation.  There is MUCH room given for those things to be explored and discussed.  However, our focus is WITHIN THE SCRIPTURES.   Accurately translated (as much as is currently possible), and the Spirit within the letters having been revealed to us, they are reliable - and to be believed.  This is the "default" position for discussion and posting.

There are plenty of other places in the world today that are accepting to the deceit that the scriptures are either not reliable, not necessary, or that don't understand (or care) that the Father and Son, the Spirit, and the written scriptures work in tandem - that they don't cancel each other out, nor one make the other unnecessary - or that one may be believed but the other rejected/questioned/cast doubt upon.   TM is not one of those places. 


Salvation is a Gift from God:

Salvation then, is a gift from God. He offers the gift through Jesus, his Son. By laying down his life on the cross, Christ took our place and paid the ultimate price, the penalty for our sin — death. Jesus is our only way to God.

John 14:6 —  "Jesus told him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me."

The only thing we must do is respond to God's call. 

Admit you are a sinner in need of a Savior.  Turn away from your sin and to Jesus Christ.

Believe Jesus Christ died on the cross to save you from your sins and give you eternal life.
John 3:16 says: "For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life."

Come to him by the faith He provides, believing and trusting in Jesus Christ as Savior.

You may pray a simple prayer to God.  Prayer is simply communicating with God. Pray using your own words. There is no special formula. Just pray from your heart to God, and believe that he has saved you.

Salvation is by grace, through faith. There's nothing you did, or ever can do, to deserve it. It's a free gift from God. All you have to do is receive it!

Ephesians 2:8 says: "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith — and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God."

Romans 10:9-10 says, "If you confess with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

Thank you for viewing at Tentmaker, and if you think it would be beneficial to you and/or the body of Christ, welcome.
