Important questions to ask yourself as you begin to prepare:

Please keep the discussion board updated if you decide to leave. 

How long before landfall will you leave?  Traffic is the big consideration here.  It is highly recommended that you leave before the traffic gets so bad that you will be on the road for an extended period of time.  As a consideration, the state of Louisiana is planning to open the contra-flow sometime Sunday morning.  In any event, it would be best to avoid being trapped in heavy tracffic while the storm is making landfall.

Where do you plan to go?  Make reservations early and try to go north.  A hurricane can turn at the last minute and impact other areas along the gulf.

What will be your path?  Plan for alternates.  Avoid interstates if possible.

Do you have enough food/fuel/supplies to make the trip if you get stranded somewhere? 

If you have small children, stock up on diapers and baby food. 

What will you do with your pets?

If staying, keep fuel cans full for generators.

Keep your vehicles full of fuel.

Make sure your vehicle is in good condition early this week.  Perform any necessary maintenance.

It is very important to discuss these items with your immediate family, extended family, and anyone that you may be evacuating with.  Know where you are going and the path you will take well in advance.  The more decisions you have to make at the last minute, the more stressful the event will be.</description>

Official POM/POLR Evacuation Plan

The Pentecostals of Mandeville facility located at 625 Lotus Drive North is NOT a safe enough building during a major storm to be designated as a shelter.  Our plan is to evacuate this area. 

LA District UPC Campgrounds is our official evacuation site. (Tioga LA)
We have approximately 30 beds for males in the boys dorm and
30 beds for females in the girls dorm.  We are also attempting to secure other dorms on the campgrounds.

Pastor Paul Trentacoste is the official contact person for this location. If you evacuate to another location, please log into the web site and post your information.  The link is at the bottom of this page.  Your can leave information at the campground (318-640-9657) for pastor and staff.  Other contact information will we available when you log in.</description>

There is only one God (Deuteronomy 6:4). He is the creator of heaven and earth, and of all living beings. He has revealed Himself to humanity as the Father (Creator), in the son (Savior), and as the Holy Ghost (indwelling Spirit). </description>

God is a Spirit (John 4:24). He is the Eternal One, the Creator of all things, and the Father of all humanity by creation.
He is the First and the Last, and beside Him there is no God (Isaiah 44:6).
There was no God formed before Him; neither shall be there any after Him (Isaiah 43:10). </description>

Jesus is the Son of God according to the flesh (Romans 1:3) and the very God Himself according to the Spirit (Matthew 1:23). Jesus is the Christ (Matthew 16:16); the creator of all things (Colossians 1:16-17); God with us (Matthew 1:23); God made flesh (John 1:1-14); God manifested in the flesh (I Timothy 3:16);He which was, which is, and which is to come, the Almighty (Revelation 1:8);the mighty God, everlasting Father, and Prince of peace (Isaiah 9:6).

Jesus Himself testified of His identity as God when He said, &quot;He that hath seen me hath seen the Father&quot; (John 14:7-11) and &quot;I and my Father are one&quot; (John 10:30).

It took shedding of blood for the remission of the sins of the world (Hebrews 9:22), but God the Father was a Spirit and had no blood to shed. Thus He prepared a body of flesh and blood (Hebrews 10:5)and came to earth as a man in order to save us, for in Isaiah 43:11 He said, &quot;Beside me there is no Saviour.&quot; When He came in flesh the angels sang, &quot;For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord&quot; (Luke 2:11). </description>

The Holy Ghost is not a third person in the Godhead, but rather the Spirit of God (the Creator), the Spirit of the resurrected Christ. The Holy Ghost comes to dwell in the hearts and lives of everyone who believes and obeys the gospel, as the comforter, Sustainer, and keeper (John 14:16-26; Romans 8:9-11). </description>

Sin is the transgression of the law, or commandments of God (I John 3:4). The guilt of sin has fallen upon all humanity from Adam until now (Romans 3:23). The wages of sin is eternal death (Romans 6:23; Revelation 20:14) to all those who refuse to accept salvation as set forth in the Word of God. </description>

&quot;Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day; and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. And ye are witnesses of these things. And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high&quot; (Luke 24:46-49).

&quot;But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you; and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth&quot; (Acts 1:8). 

&quot;Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost&quot; (Acts 2:38). 

&quot;Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved&quot; (Acts 4:12) 

&quot;As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed&quot; (Galatians 1:9). 

&quot;And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone&quot; (Ephesians 2:20). 

&quot;As I besought thee to abide still at Ephesus, when I went into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge some that they teach no other doctrine&quot; (I Timothy 1:3). 

&quot;All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness&quot; (II Timothy 3:16). </description>

Salvation consists of deliverance from all sin and unrighteousness through the blood of Jesus Christ. The New Testament experience of salvation consists of repentance from sin, water baptism in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and the baptism of the Holy Ghost, after which the Christian is to live a godly life (Acts 2:36-41). </description>

<title>Water Baptism - What We Believe</title>

<description>


Water baptism is an essential part of New Testament salvation and not merely a symbolic ritual. It is part of entering into the kingdom of God (God&#39;s church, the bride of Christ), and therefore, it is not merely a part of local church membership. (See John 3:5; Galatians 3:27). </description>

<description>


Water baptism is to be administered only by immersion. Paul said, &quot;We are buried with him [Jesus Christ] by baptism (Romans 6:4; see Colossians 2:12), Jesus came up &quot;out of the water&quot; (Mark 1:10), and Philip and the eunuch went down &quot;into the water&quot; and came up &quot;out of the water&quot; (Acts 8:38-39).
Jesus&#39; death, burial, and resurrection are applied to our lives when we experience New Testament salvation: &quot;Repent [death to sin], and be baptized [burial] every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost [resurrection].&quot; (See Acts 2:38; Romans 6:1-7; 8:2).

Sprinkling, pouring, or infant baptism of any kind cannot be substantiated by the Word of God, but are only human traditions. </description>

<description>


The name in which baptism is administered is vitally important, and this name is Jesus.
Jesus&#39; last command to His disciples was, &quot;Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost&quot; (Matthew 28:19). We should notice that He said name (singular) not names. As previously explained, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost are not names of separate persons, but titles of positions held by God. An angelic announcement revealed God&#39;s saving name in the New Testament: &quot;She shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins&quot; (Matthew 1:21).

The apostles understood that Jesus was the name to use at baptism, and from the day that the church of God was established (the Day of Pentecost) until the end of their ministry, they baptized all nations (Jews--Acts 8:16; Gentiles--Acts 19:5) in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.

In fact, Jesus is the only name given for our salvation. &quot;Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved&quot; (Acts 4:12).</description>

<title>Baptism of the Holy Ghost - What We Believe</title>

<description>


The baptism of the Holy Ghost is the birth of the Spirit (John 3:5). This spiritual baptism is necessary to put someone into the kingdom of God (God&#39;s church, the bride of Christ) and is evidenced by speaking in other tongues (other languages) as the Spirit of God give utterance. 

It was prophesied by Joel (Joel 2:28-29) and Isaiah (Isaiah 28:11), foretold by John the Baptist (Matthew 3:11), purchased by the blood of Jesus, and promised by Him to His disciples (John 14:26; 15:16). The Holy Ghost was first poured out on the Day of Pentecost upon the Jews (Acts 2:1-4), then upon the Samaritans (Acts 8:17), and later upon the Gentiles (Acts 10:44-46; 19:6). &quot;The promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call&quot; (Acts 2:39). </description>

Speaking in other tongues as the Spirit of God gives utterance is the manifestation God has given as the definite, indisputable, supernatural witness or sign of the baptism of the Holy Ghost (Acts 2:4; 10:46; 19:6).

It was prophesied by the prophet Isaiah as the rest and the refreshing (Isaiah 28:11-12), foretold by Jesus as a sign that would follow believers of the gospel (Mark 16:17), and experienced by Jews and Gentiles alike.The gift of &quot;divers kinds of tongues,&quot; mentioned by Paul in I Corinthians 12:1-12 and concerning which he gave regulations in I Corinthians 14:1-40, is given by both for self-edification (I Corinthians 14:4) and for the edification of the church (I Corinthians 14:27-28).

In church meetings the gift of tongues is used to give a public message, and it is to be interpreted. Since this gift can be misused in public, it needs proper regulation (I Corinthians 14:23-28). Not all believers exercise the gift of tongues, which is different in function from tongues given by God as the initial witness of the baptism of the Holy Ghost.

Paul said, &quot;Forbid not to speak with tongues&quot; (I Corinthians 14:39) and &quot;I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all&quot; (I Corinthians 14:8). Who dares to teach or preach to the contrary?

Speaking in tongues means speaking miraculously in a language unknown to the speaker, as the Spirit gives utterance. Tongues can be classified in two ways, according to function: (1)speaking in other tongues as the initial evidence of the baptism of the Holy Ghost and (2)the gift of tongues as mentioned in I Corinthians.</description>

<title>Holiness - What We Believe</title>

After we are saved from sin, we are commanded, &quot;Go, and sin no more&quot; (John 8:11).
We are commanded to live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present world (Titus 2:12) and warned that without holiness no one shall see the Lord (Hebrews 12:14).

We must present ourselves as holy unto God (Romans 12:1), cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit (II Corinthians 7:1), and separate ourselves from all worldliness (James 4:4).
If the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear? (I Peter 4:18).

No one can live a holy life by his own power, but only through the Holy Spirit. &quot;Ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you&quot; (Acts 1:8).

<title>Divine Healing - What We Believe</title>
<link>http://pentecostalsofmandeville.ccbchurch.com/app/w_page.php?type=section&amp;id=3</link>

<description>


God has made Himself known through the ages by miraculous healings and has made special provisions in the age of grace to heal all who will come to Him in faith and obedience. Divine healing was purchased for us by the blood of Jesus Christ, especially by His stripes (Isaiah 53:5; Matthew 8:16-17; I Peter 2:24).

Jesus went everywhere healing those who were sick (Matthew 4:23-24), and He commanded His disciples to do the same (Matthew 10:8). He said concerning those who believe the gospel, &quot;They shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover&quot; (Mark 16:18). Mighty healings and miracles followed the disciples wherever the gospel was preached.
There is no sickness or disease too hard for God. Any of us, our children, or our friends can be healed by the power of God.

&quot;Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him , anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord shall raise him up: and if he have committed sins they shall be forgiven him. Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed&quot; (James 5:14-16). </description>

<title>Second Coming of Christ - What We Believe</title>

Jesus Christ is coming back to earth in bodily form, just as He went away (Acts 1:11). He will catch away a holy people (His bride, His church) who have accepted redemption through His blood, by birth of water and of the Spirit, and who are found faithful when He comes.

&quot;For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord&quot; (I Thessalonians 4:16-17).

&quot;One shall be taken and the other left&quot; (Luke 17:36). Will we be ready?

The signs of His coming are everywhere. The days of peril are here indeed, with forms of godliness void of the power of God; society and politics corrupted; and people&#39;s hearts filled with pride, blasphemies, unholiness, love of evil, and love of pleasures (II Timothy 3:1-13). These things, together with multitudes running to and fro, the increase of knowledge (Daniel 12:4), the persecution of the Jews and their return to Palestine (Luke 21:24), and scores of other things are starting signs that Jesus&#39; coming is drawing near.

Wars, rumors of wars, famines, earthquakes, storms, floods, distress of nations, perplexity, and people&#39;s hearts failing them for fear are sounding the solemn alarm that Jesus&#39; coming is at hand (Matthew 24:6; Luke 21:25-28).

&quot;Prepare to meet thy God&quot; (Amos 4:12). </description>

There will be a resurrection of all the dead, both just and unjust.

&quot;Marvel not this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in graves shall hear his voice, and shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation&quot; (John 5:28-29).

&quot;And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God . . . and the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them&quot; (Revelation 20:12-13)&gt; (See also Daniel 12:2; I Corinthians 15:13-23.) </description>

&quot;It is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment&quot; (Hebrews 9:27). For this reason there will be a resurrection for everyone. &quot;For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad&quot; (II Corinthians 5:10).

The eternal destiny of every soul shall be determined by a just God who knows the secrets of everyone&#39;s heart. &quot;And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats: and he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left. Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. . . .Then shall he also say unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels. . . . And these shall go away into everlasting punishment; but the righteous into life eternal&quot; (Matthew 25:32-34, 41, 46). </description>

The Bible is the inspired Word of God, giving a true history of the creation of heaven, earth, and humanity and containing a correct prophecy of the ages to come regarding heaven, earth, and the destiny of humanity. Moreover, there is no salvation outside of what is taught in its pages.</description>

<title>It's Time To Get The Revelation! - Weekly Devotions</title>

Greetings to each of you, the wonderful saints and friends of POM:

I pray that this has been a fantastic week for you and your families in every way imaginable!  May the joy of knowing that &quot;all things are working together for your good in Christ Jesus&quot; flood your soul.

Isn&#39;t it amazing how quickly and effortlessly we believe what others say about us - which more often than not is negative or critical, rather than positive and uplifting?  The comments, statements, and impulsive remarks that so easily flow from our lips are more powerful than we realize!  Why is it so easy for us to believe and accept the negative, harmful, and sometimes hurtful words that have been spoken into our lives rather than the positive, encouraging, edifying words?    

I want to encourage each of you this week, and down right challenge you to start believing what, and WHO, God says you are!  Force yourself if you have to!  Pray for God to give you a fresh revelation of who you are in Him!  His Word, His voice, His opinion, His thoughts, His feelings, His declarations, and His word of prophesy concerning your life, is all that matters anyway.  Once God chooses to do something in the lives of His children, He faithfully goes to work, sure to perform it!

You are a mighty man or woman of God!  You will live an abundant life!  You will be healed!  You will be an over-comer!  You will do greater things than these!  You are a child of God - heir to all His promises!  You will be blessed!  Your family will get through this valley!  Your finances will turn around because you have been faithful!  You won&#39;t always be at this level in the Spirit!  Whatever it is that God has determined  for your life, consider it done....in Jesus name!

Every scripture that God has spoken in His Word - the bible - is for you!  Any and all promises that God has ever declared are for &quot;whosoever will&quot;.  We just have to begin to believe what He has already said about us!  Our FAITH has the potential, and the power to reach out and grab them if we will simply exercise it! 

The pendulum swings both ways and is equally powerful in either direction.  Why believe and accept the negative report, when the God-report has already been issued for your life?  You have a great future, and destiny awaiting you!  It is only one small step of faith away!  I pray that we get the revelation, in Jesus name!

May you have a God moment while reading this, and may His dreams for you from the ancient past become your reality today.  

Lovingly from a shepherds heart!

Pastor Paul
