If you happened upon this web site, rest assured, you were directed here by divine providence. Really, you say? Yes, because, believe it or not, everything you do in life is orchestrated by our Father God in Heaven. Heaven Rules! Think about your life. If you had to stand in front of God right now, what would be your reaction? Would you be ashamed of the person you are today, or would you make yourself believe that there is nothing wrong with you. That you are a good person, and you will go to Heaven because of your goodness. If that is what you think, you are wrong! We will all spend eternity somewhere. Wouldn't you rather live eternally with a loving Father God, rather than separation from God and everyone else, being alone and in torment for eternity! Let's investigate deeper to understand why you are wrong.
As you read, remember this; Christianity is not a religion. Christianity is not about the Ten Commandments and perfection, as a lot of our secular society would have you believe. Christianity is a relationship. That relationship is Jesus. Religion kills, but a relationship saves! Jesus is God who came down to earth as a man to save this earth; therefore, Christianity is a relationship with Jesus/God!
In John 14:6, Jesus said to Thomas, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
In Romans 3:10 As it is written: "There is none righteous, no not one.
In Romans 3:23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.
Truth is not subjective, open to interpretation, or does Truth change with time. There is only one Truth. That Truth is Jesus, and always will be, Jesus!
Romans 2:11 For there is no partiality with God. Romans 2:12 For as many as have sinned without law will also perish without law, and as many as have sinned in the law will be judged by the law. What is the law being mentioned here. It is the Ten Commandments.
The Ten Commandments are the laws of God. They are Holy, but no one can keep the Ten Commandments perfectly. They were given to man to allow us to see how truly flawed we are. You break one commandment you break them all. So therefore, you have negated being able to enter God's presence after you die if you break any of the ten. You are unrighteous and cannot enter into God's presence. That is where Jesus comes into the picture.
So, when you hear John 3:16, or see it written, what does it mean? In John 3:16, Jesus states, "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life."
If I give my life to Christ, then I have to be perfect and will never have any fun, because I will be with boring Christians that never have any fun in life.
I don't know what planet you have been living on, but Christians are not like the puritanical people you see in the movies. Don't get me wrong. Some still are. They are usually legalistic prune faced, religious types that tell you that you have to keep the Ten Commandments and be perfect, even as they are perfect. I have news for you. They are far from perfect, because no one is. They probably have more sin in their life than a non-Christian. The Bible would call them Pharisees. These type Christians are a sad bunch that turn people away from the church by telling you that you have to work for your salvation. The only work that you are required to do as a Christian is to believe in God's Son, Jesus, and what He did for you on the cross! Stay away from legalistic Christians. We do!!
In John 6:28 People said to Jesus, "What shall we do, that we may work the works of God?" In John 6:29 Jesus answered and said to them, "This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent."
Once you accept Jesus into your life, it is not boring. You will become an instant family member into the family of Christ. Christians have Bar-b-ques, parties, potlucks, go to concerts, go out to eat and news flash, we don't talk about Christianity and Jesus every minute of the day. We have thousands of other interests just like you do, but the difference is this; when we do anything in life, Jesus is at the center of it all as we do them! And we know it, which gives us true inner peace when we do anything in life. You don't believe it? It is true! Plus, once saved by Jesus, you can never be unsaved. You will still sin and mess up as all Christians do, and you will, the rest of your life. You will, however, naturally find yourself sinning less and less. Because you find that you do not want to do the things that you did before you were saved by Jesus. It becomes more natural not to sin, than to sin. You truly start realizing too, that this earth is not your home. The difference is, you know where you are going. How do you know?
In John 14:1-6 Jesus said, "Let not your heart be troubled: you believe in God, believe also in Me." (John 14:2) In My Father's house are many mansions;" "If it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you." (John 14:3) "And if I go and prepare a place for you. I will come again and receive you to Myself, that where I am, there you may be also. (John 14:4) "And where I go you know, and the way you know." (John 14:5) Thomas said to Him, "Lord, we do not know where You are going, and how can we know the way?" (John 14:6) Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
All religions of the world have dead people in tombs that are worshipped. All but one. Christianity. Jesus is alive today. Raised from the dead tomb to life. To give all of us eternal life. He took the punishment you and I deserve, as we deserved to be on that cross and took our punishment Himself, thereby transferring His Righteousness to you and me, taking our sins, past, present, and future on Himself. He did not have to. He could have stayed in Heaven, but He didn't. He wanted to show you and me how much God loved us by sending His Son to die for us. In John 15:13 Jesus said, "Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one's life for his friends." That is what Jesus did for us and there is no greater love than what He did for you and me!
You may be thinking, The Bible contradicts itself and has too many rules and regulations. Not true. The Bible is written to interpret itself and you can find this after you are saved. The Bible becomes a Living entity, and you understand things that you never saw before. It is like God is talking to you through the words of the Bible and you know what? He is! That part is something a secular scholar will not be able to see or understand. Many people gain so much knowledge that they lose all common sense and wisdom. Thinking they are smarter than everyone else they become fools in most people's eyes, especially God's! In Romans 1:22 Paul states, "Professing to be wise, they became fools." Unfortunately, there is a lot of over intellectual, wise fools out there. Especially most of today's college professors and unfortunately, the young minds they destroy because of their ignorance. The young minds that believe the garbage they teach help to propagate a declining society. A society being destroyed by ideology, ignorance and no morals! There are only 2 genders, male and female. The Lord God made us all!
Remember this. The New Testament negates all of the laws of the Old Testament, because Jesus fulfilled all of the law when He died on the cross. Something no one had ever done or was ever able to do. Jesus was the only one ever to die without sin!
If you hate Jesus and Christians, this is what Jesus said in John 16:18 "If the world hates you, you know that it hated Me before it hated you." And in John 16:23 Jesus said, "He who hates Me hates My Father also." Therefore, if you hate Jesus and Christians, you hate God also. I didn't say it, Jesus did!
Most people are familiar with many religions such as Astrology, Buddhism, Islam, Scientology, Hinduism, Gnosticism, etc. God doesn't send people to hell. People send themselves to hell by not accepting His Son, Jesus. This is the only unforgivable sin!
An idol is anything that replaces God and becomes your own religion in your life such as Materialism, Luxurious Lifestyle, Multiple Genders, LGBTQ+, Transgenderism, Political Ideology, Mother Earth, Saving the Planet, Climate Change, race relations, sports, trees, animals, celebrities, etc. Read the book of Revelation in the Bible for the true Global Warming that will take place in the last three- and one-half years of the 7-year Tribulation. Nothing that you worship or replace God with is satisfying and none of these things will grant you favor with God or get you into Heaven. Only filling the void in your life with Jesus will satisfy your inner being. Why are you into activism for a cause which means nothing to God nor gets you into Heaven? After you die, nothing but His Son Jesus will matter to your eternal existence and where you spend eternity. Wouldn't you rather spend it in a nice place?
This is what the Bible states about homosexuality and other sins. Romans 1:24 Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, (Romans 1:25) who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and served the creature rather than the creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. (Romans 1:26) For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. (Romans 1:27) Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men, committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due. (Romans 1:28) And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; (Romans 1:29) being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness, full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness, whisperers, (Romans 1:30) backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, (Romans 1:31) undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful; (Romans 1:32) who, knowing the righteous judgement of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.
Am I judging you? No, I am letting God judge you. As you see, there are many things that people do that go against God, that if you do, or practice, or even give your approval of, God says, that that person has a debased mind!
What you may not realize is, that all Christians, before they were saved by Jesus, did some, most, or all of the same sins shown above. Believe it or not Christians fail at times, and some may continue to do these things because the flesh is weak. The difference is, a Christian has been forgiven of his/her sins, past, present and future. You probably say, wait, Christians are not perfect? No. Christians are still tempted and fail from time-to-time. No one will ever be perfect on this earth. The only difference is; when a Christian or worse a Christian Pastor fails, it is well publicized by our secular media, who hate God and Christians!
The difference is, a Christian has an advocate in Heaven now, Jesus Christ. Once you are saved you are no longer condemned to hell by God. Jesus is the go between a Christian and God, forever! A Christian is covered by the blood that He shed on the cross for us. This does not give the Christian a license to sin. A true Christian asks forgiveness and tries not to do it again. Peter asked Jesus how many times a person should be forgiven, "Seven times?" Jesus said, no, "Seventy times seven." In other words, as many times as you ask forgiveness. When you know you are saved by Grace, you begin to sin less and less. It becomes natural, but you will never be perfect until you reach Heaven! Even though a Christian may sin from time-to-time (even Pastors/Preachers/Evangelists still sin). You will never lose your salvation once you have allowed Jesus into your heart and life! Once you are saved, you will stand amazed, knowing the truth and what you have been missing in this life! Don't believe me? Pray this prayer of salvation now and find out for yourself:
The following is your prayer of salvation
Dear God in Heaven, I come to you in the Name of Jesus. I acknowledge to you that I am a sinner, and I am sorry for my sins and the life that I have lived; Father God, I am asking you to forgive me.
I believe that your only begotten Son Jesus Christ shed His precious blood on the cross at Calvary and died for my sins, and I am now willing to turn to Jesus.
You said in your Holy Word, Romans 10:9 that if we confess to the Lord our God and believe in our hearts that God raised Jesus from the dead, we shall be saved.
Right now, I confess Jesus is my Lord and Savior. With my heart, I believe that You raised Jesus from the dead.
I accept Your Son, Jesus Christ as my personal Lord and Savior. According to Your Word, now I am saved.
Thank You Jesus for Your Unlimited Grace which has saved me from my sins. I thank You Jesus, that Your Grace never leads to license, but rather, leads to repentance.
Lord Jesus, transform my life so that I may bring Glory and Honor to You alone and not to myself. Thank You Jesus for dying for me and giving me eternal life.
