WHAT WE BELIEVE
1. We believe that the Bible contains the revealed truths necessary
for salvation, spoken by God through holy men of old who were divinely inspired by the Holy Spirit to write them. (2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:20-21) 2. We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. (Deuteronomy 6:4-5; 1 Timothy 2:5) 3. We believe that God was manifested in the flesh in the person of Jesus Christ. (1 Timothy 3:16; John 4:19; 1 John 4:1-3) 4. We believe in the deity of Jesus Christ; that he is the promised Savior of the world, in his virgin birth, his sinless life, his miracles, his vicarious and atoning death through his shed blood, his bodily resurrection, his ascension to the right hand of God the Father, and in his personal return in power and glory for all who confess faith in Him. (Matthew 1:18-23; Isaiah 9:6; John 1:1-5, 14:10-30; Hebrews 4:14-15; 1 Corinthians 15:3-4; Romans 1:3-4; Acts 1:9-11; 1 Timothy 6:14,16; Titus 2:13) 5. We believe that for the salvation of lost and sinful man, confession of faith in Jesus Christ and regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential. (John 3:16-18; Romans 10:8-13) 6. We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life. (John 16:7-15) 7. We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; those who are saved - unto the resurrection of eternal life and those who are lost unto the resurrection of eternal damnation. (John 3:16; Romans 6:23; Revelation 20:11-15) 8. We believe that all believers are vitally united, by faith, into one body - the invisible and universal church to Christ, its living Head and Sovereign Lord. (Matthew 16:18; Hebrew 12:22-24) 9. We believe that water baptism and the Lord's Supper are outward rites appointed by Christ to be administered, not as a means of salvation, but as a visible sign and seal of its reality, (Acts 8:36-38; 1 Corinthians 11:24-34) |
OUR MISSION
The Old Fashioned Gospel Broadcast, located in the Historic City of Richmond, Virginia, USA was founded by the Rev. Jymm Turner, Jr., in the month of November 2013. "Jymm", as he prefers to be called, has humbly and silently served in the Christian ministry for over 52 years as an evangelist, teacher, preacher, associate minister, pastor, and outreach ministry in the field of Juvenile Corrections.
During the summer of 2013, he became very concerned about the high rate of gun related violence among young African American males, particularly the tragic shooting death of Quinton Brown (Jymm's cousin), Trayvon Martin and later Darius Turner (Jymm' s grandson). His plea to God, through agonizing prayer was, "What can I do to help stop the violence and shootings among our youth?" God's answer, through personal meditation and inspirational reading, was the urgent need to restore the faith that was once believed and practiced by our forefathers; through "simple teaching" of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, through emerging media technologies; to those on the margins of society; the poor, those in prisons, the homeless, illiterate, sick, backslidden; all who are outside the church, living in far away and remote places, and all who are in need of salvation. Inspired by the writings of Matthew Henry, John Wesley, Jonathan Edwards, Peter Randolph and the radio ministry of Dr. Charles C. Fuller, Jymm entered "the internet mission field" to launch a weekly religious broadcast program where the old fashioned simple truth of the gospel is taught. Our "God inspired" messages, are prayerfully and thoroughly researched, reviewed for biblical and theological accuracy, to be presented in a simple, plain, and biblically based manner for instructions on what the Bible says, so that all may hear, understand, receive and believe. It is our hope that we may reach many neglected listeners who have never heard the GOOD NEWS and we may, by the commission of God, present the Word of God in its fullness---"the mystery that has been hidden for ages and generations, but is now made known to the saints ..." . You are invited to join us in this ministry with your prayerful and financial support as Jymm and the Team strive to obey the command of Christ to, "Go into all the world and preach the good news to all creation."
