    John C. Fenn

    John and Barbara Fenn were born in Kokomo, Indiana and grew up just a few miles from each other. They attended the same kindergarten, went to many of the same neighborhood birthday parties growing up, and had mutual friends. Barb even attended John's confirmation in the Episcopal Church when they were twelve years old. They began dating as teenagers and were born again together and baptized with the Holy Spirit at age sixteen. Each attended Indiana University after graduating high school and were then married in 1978. In early 2002 John and Barb founded the Church Without Walls International of Tulsa (CWOWI), a house church network, emphasizing relationship-based Christianity. The seeds of CWOWI were planted in 1992 during a time of prayer. The Lord Jesus appeared to John in a visitation and shared some of what He would be doing in the future. Part of the Lord's plan was an exodus from many of the "para-church" organizations that were raised up after the Charismatic renewal of the 1960s and 70s. This would produce a movement of more "para-church" organizations, home prayer meetings, and also home-based churches. On November 4, 2001, during an evening church meeting in Edmonton, Alberta, Jesus appeared again to John. As both John and the host pastor fell to their knees, Jesus laid hands on John and told him to start a home church network "based on my Word and the things you've learned through the people I've brought across your path this year." The Lord said He wanted it to be called The Church Without Walls International. The next month, CWOWI began meeting in the Fenn home, and is growing and gaining affiliate house churches as relationships develop. Known for teaching with anointing and by revelation and flowing with the gifts of the spirit, his heart's desire is to make known the ways of the Father God. Church Without Walls International (CWOWI) is dedicated to making disciples of Jesus Christ through the establishment of a network of related house churches around the world.

      When Christians Die with Unrepented Sin

      Part 1

      Hi all,

      A pastor told his congregation that if the speed limit was 55 miles per hour (90 kph) and you were driving at 56 miles per hour (91 kph) and had a wreck and died, you’d go to hell. Is that true?

      A lady came to me very concerned about her mother who had died. The mom expressed faith in Christ before she died, but due to a very abusive marriage years earlier, was still bitter towards her ex-husband. She wanted to know if her mom was in heaven.

      A man addicted to porn who also had a heart condition, was worried he would be sitting in front of his computer one day watching porn and have a heart attack and die. He wanted to know if he would still go to heaven if that happened.

      A single lady I knew in church, who was active in church, one day committed suicide. Is she in heaven?

      When Christians die with unrepented sin

      Answering these questions touch on several ‘hot buttons’ for many: once saved always saved, the unpardonable sin, the judgement of God to name three, but let me start by saying something that may sound rather radical:

      It isn’t the forgiveness of your sins that gets you into heaven.

      That is a shocker to many, yet it is the truth. What gets you into heaven isn’t the forgiveness of your sins. Your ‘ticket’ to heaven is something more than that. Your ‘ticket’ to heaven is that your spirit has been recreated by the Holy Spirit.

      The Father has legally forgiven all people who have ever lived or ever will live, charging their sins to Christ on the cross instead of them. Yet Jesus said to get to heaven you must be ‘born again’ by the Holy Spirit, and then you will have Life (2 Corinthians 5:19, John 3:6).

      So it is more than merely Jesus purchasing the forgiveness of everyone’s sins who has ever lived or ever will live. That just presented the legal opportunity for people to become born again. Unfortunately some in the modern ‘grace’ teaching only see the sins paid for on the cross and think all therefore will end up in heaven, neglecting the fact that like anything done for another person, that person must of their own will take advantage of what was done for them.

      If I put money in your bank account, that is a legal transaction, but it does you no good, it doesn’t become living until you make use of the provision. Noah was a preacher of righteousness, there was room on the boat, but only the eight in his family survived. He couldn’t make everyone get into the Ark, which is a type of Christ we are told by Peter. All he could do was give them the opportunity, the legal thing. As it was with the type, so it is with the True (1 Peter 3:20–22).

      Say it another way

      The only people in heaven are family of the King. Barb and I have three sons, and there is a little of us in each of them. That is natural family. The Father has children too, and to be part of
