当耶稣基督死在十字架上的时候，还有其他两个人也在同一天死了。这两个人都犯了第八条诫命：“不可偷盗”。耶稣带其中一人上了天堂，而另外一人则没有。为什么会有这样的不同呢？他们二人都相信基督的存在，因为他们都和他说了话，但是他们当中只有一人为救恩相信了基督。这是一个承认自己是罪人，认为自己罪有应得的人，因为他说：“我们是应该的，因我们所受的与我们所做的相称......”他没有为自己的罪找借口，而是仰望耶稣，唯一能够赦免他的那一位，他相信基督，也求主拯救自己。“就说：‘耶稣啊，你得国降临的时候，求你记念我！’耶稣对他说：‘我实在告诉你，今日你要同我在乐园里了。’”（路加福音23：42-43）我们也当对耶稣说：“主啊，求你纪念我！我死后，我想进到你的国度里。我求你拯救我的灵魂，请赦免我一切的罪过。我愿意你在我里面，活出你的生命。”
“凡求告主名的就必得救。”（罗马书10：13）
Our Newest Book
GOD & SPIES
GM Matheny was a US Navy saturation diver on the nuclear submarine USS Halibut. Involved in "Operation Ivy Bells". America’s most important and most dangerous of the Cold War clandestine operations. If you like good old fashioned American bravado, espionage and American history, you will enjoy this book.
Based on True Events -The Mount Everest of Spy Missions
Firsthand account of history's greatest intelligence coup. Operation Ivy Bells was not a onetime intercept of foreign intelligence, but an ongoing operation of multiple Soviet military channels, twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, which lasted for years! Another reason for the high interest in our operation was the audacious nature in which it was done—with not one person risking his neck but a whole crew of a nuclear submarine.
How did I end up as a navy diver, four hundred feet down in a frigid Russian sea? After making my dad totally disgusted with me, I set out to make him happy. “Honour thy father” - I struggled with a decision to serve God. “Lord, I will give my life to you and serve you if you let me make this dive.” But I had the impression He only wanted to know one thing: “What if I do not let you? Will you serve me anyway?”
BOOK EXCERPT "The tenders in the dive chamber who are bringing in Red Diver’s umbilical cable, unexpectedly have his cable ripped out of their hands! One of the tenders says, “What’s going on?” Matheny’s fins have landed back onto the first leg of the DSRV, which keeps him from sliding back any farther. He then pulls toward him about 30 feet of his umbilical cord and makes a dash for the next leg coming down from the DSRV. He makes it, but the red light shining in Matheny’s face is reminding him he is running out of time. From his position, he can see the light shining down in the water from the entry point back into the dive chamber. He positions himself to push off the last leg of the DSRV so he can enter the dive chamber. Then unexplainably he is again jerked backward with another sharp pull! This time his face mask slams into the leg of the DSRV. Matheny hurriedly makes a grab for this leg clinging to it."

What others are saying.
Pastor Marvin McKenzie (February 7, 2018)
“Garry Matheny is a friend and a fellow preacher. Prior to his salvation he served in the Navy as an elite saturation diver. He was involved in one of America’s most important and dangerous clandestine operations."
"Garry does a marvelous job of weaving recently declassified information regarding the operation, the record of an intelligence analyst spending the rest of his life in prison for selling the details of this operation to the Russians and his own eyewitness account of the operation itself."
"If you like good old fashioned American bravado, espionage and history, you will enjoy this book.”
David Meyer (February 26, 2018)
“I could not stop reading once I started. This book is for anyone that likes stories about submarines, divers, spies and or scripture. It’s all there in this interesting book.”

“The flow of logic of the whole episode was great. Once I started reading it I couldn't stop.”
