Conduct Code For Christians

For the Scriptures say, "If you want to enjoy life and see many happy days, keep your tongue from speaking evil and your lips from telling lies. Turn away from evil and do good.  Search for peace, and work to maintain it.  The eyes of the Lord watch over those who do right, and His ears are open to their prayers.  But the Lord turns His face against those who do evil.------1 Peter 3:10-12

These verses gives the believer a very clear picture of what is expected of them.  I have heard, from those, who profess to be a Christian, language that made me cringe with disbelief, and if it had that affect on me, I wonder what it must have done to the very heart of ALMIGHTY GOD.  The very mouth that one moment is offering up PRAISE, SONGS, and PRAYERS are now taking the VERY name of the ONE, they were just PRAISING, SINGING AND PRAYING to, in VAIN, using it in a NOT so good context, with words that it should NEVER be used with.

These verses tell us to KEEP our tongues from such vulgarity and to KEEP our lips from telling lies, by which, is something that a LOT of people cannot do, because their lives are built on NOTHING BUT LIES, and that is ALL they seem to know, but as God's children we are to REFRAIN from telling lies, because we belong to God and He is TRUTH!  So as Children of TRUTH, WE  MUST NOT engage in telling lies.

We are to conduct ourselves, with HELP from the Holy Spirit, in a manner conducive to being a Child of the ALMIGHTY GOD and FLEE, RUN, SKADADDLE from EVIL.  But DO those things that, we know, in our HEARTS are GOOD, PLEASING AND ACCEPTABLE to HIM. Then we are to SEARCH for PEACE. This word "SEARCH" gives us an indication that PEACE is not ALWAYS available, but it is worth looking DILIGENTLY for and once we FIND it we must WORK DILIGENTLY to MAINTAIN or KEEP it.

And when we have done ALL of the above, we are told what He will do for us.  It says that His EYES watch over those who do RIGHT, and NEITHER does He SLUMBER nor SLEEP!! Now, this word "SLUMBER" can mean "INACTIVE", so we KNOW that He is neither, INACTIVE or SLEEPING, but VERY well AWARE of EVERYTHING we say or do.
And His ears are OPEN to our PRAYERS.  He is WAITING and WILLING for US to come to Him.  That SPECIAL time when we are ALL ALONE with our HEAVENLY FATHER and can without reservation POUR OUT our HEARTS to the ONLY ONE who can make the CHANGES in our lives that we desperately NEED.

Then we are told  that the Lord turns His face AGAINST those who do evil.  They do NOT belong to Him and they do NOT RECEIVE any of His blessings or protection in this life, unless they come to Him with a REPENTANT HEART, turning AWAY and FLEEING from the EVIL that was once a part of their lives.  They can do that by:  CONFESSING their sins to God, then asking for God's FORGIVENESS, BELIEVING, with ALL their HEARTS, that Jesus died for THEM, and is ALIVE, in Heaven, making intercession for them, before God, then ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION. Do it NOW, while they STILL can.  He's waiting!!!

Spiritual Abortion

Humans can reproduce only human life, but the Holy Spirit gives birth to spiritual life.------John 3:6


These are the words that Jesus spoke to Nicodemus when he came to Jesus to ask, what must one do to obtain eternal life?

Jesus told Nicodemus that he MUST be BORN AGAIN!  Nicodemus didn't understand what Jesus meant by this STRANGE concept of being BORN AGAIN, so Jesus explains that humans can only reproduce HUMAN LIFE, which is known as the "first birth," and ALMIGHTY GOD, through the MIRACULOUS AND POWERFUL HOLY SPIRIT produces or gives birth to SPIRITUAL life, known as the "second birth." Thus the concept of being 'BORN AGAIN."

So when WE experienced human birth, WE did not have a choice whether we would live or die.  Some one else made that choice for us.

To be "BORN AGAIN" WE MUST make the CHOICE of eternal LIFE or eternal DEATH which we could call a SPIRITUAL ABORTION.  the Holy Spirit gives us that ABILITY to CHOOSE.

If you have not made that CHOICE, you need to do it NOW, while you STILL have the option to CHOOSE.  God says that He will not ALWAYS strive with mankind, in other words, there is coming a time when God will remove the option of YOU CHOOSING and He will make the CHOICE and it will NOT be for eternal LIFE as ONE of His CHILDREN, instead it will be for an ETERNITY of SUFFERING, the likes of which has never been known to mankind.

However, you have at least ONE more opportunity to CHANGE your Life COURSE by:  CONFESSING your sins to God and asking for His FORGIVENESS, BELIEVING, with ALL your HEART, that Jesus died for YOU and is ALIVE, in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God, then ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION.  Do it NOW, while you STILL can.  He's waiting!!!

The Strong and Mighty Tower

It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in man.------Psalm 118:8

The day in which we live isvfull of UNCERTAINTIES, and our lives are filled with ANXIETIES, FEARS and FRUSTRATIONS.  We turn from one thing to another trying to get some RELIEF from these PRESSURES that so easily and quickly besets us.

I am here to tell you that there is HOPE and RELIEF from life's PRESSURES.  It's not from a BOTTLE of PILLS or a BOTTLE of ALCOHOL, or even from a FRIEND or RELATIVE.  But the HOPE and RELIEF needed comes from the ONLY ONE who knows ALL about your troubles, even some that you haven't even encountered yet.  That ONE is WAITING for you to come to Him.  He will TRULY be your REFUGE and STRENGTH through any STORM that you are experiencing.  And as the scripture says it's BETTER to come to Him than to TRUST in man.

If you are struggling through life's RAGING STORMS, RUN to the REFUGE of a STRONG and MIGHTY TOWER, Father God, He will see you ALL the way through.

If you are NOT familiar with the ONLY ONE who knows ALL about YOU.  You can come to Him NOW by:  CONFESSING your sins to God and asking for His FORGIVENESS, BELIEVING, with ALL your HEART, that Jesus died for YOU, and is ALIVE, in Heaven, making intercession for you before God, then ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION.  Do it NOW, while you STILL can.  He's waiting!!!

People of Light

Let there be no sexual immorality, impurity, or greed among you.  Such sins have no place among God's people.  Don't be fooled by those who try to excuse these sins, for the anger of God will fall on all who disobey Him.  Don't participate in the things these people do.  For once you were full of darkness, but now you have light from the Lord.  So live as people of light!  For this light with in you produces only what is good and right and true.------Ephesians 5: 3, 6-9


How can we live in such a WICKED and PERVERTED world where WRONG is presented as RIGHT and RIGHT is presented as WRONG?

The Apostle Paul gives us CLEAR and CONCISE directions as HOW we should live our lives at this point in time and place.  He says that we are NOT to take ANY part in sexual immorality, impurity, or greed, because such sins have NO place in the lives of God's people.

We are NOT to be FOOLED by the excuses that are used to CONDONE these acts because the ANGER of the RIGHTEOUS GOD will fall on ALL who are DISOBEDIENT to Him by practicing these sins. And I don't know about you, but I'm smart enough to know that I SURE don't wan God's ANGER to fall on me!!

Before we came to the Father, we lived in darkness, the scripture says we were FULL of darkness, BUT when we came to the Lord Jesus Christ with a REPENTANT HEART we became PEOPLE OF LIGHT, because we LIVE in the LIGHT and we are now FULL of the LIGHT that produces ONLY what is GOOD, and RIGHT, and TRUE.

So according to the Apostle Paul we SHOULD live as people of LIGHT, being OBEDIENT to God and SEEKING to bring His GOOD PLEASURE upon us INSTEAD of His ANGER.

If you are FULL of DARKNESS because you are practicing these sins you can CHANGE the DARKNESS to LIGHT BY:  CONFESSING your sins to God and asking for His FORGIVENESS, BELIEVING, with ALL your HEART that Jesus died for YOU and is ALIVE, in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God, then ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION.  Do it NOW, while you STILL can.  He's waiting!!!

A Servant's Heart

,,,"If I don't wash you," Jesus told him, "you don't belong to me."  "I have set the example, and you should do for each other exactly what I have done for you."------John 13:8, 15

In the first part of the scriptures, Jesus was speaking to Peter, in the last part He was speaking to ALL of His disciples (followers).  Yet this is a STRONG and POWERFUL message that is APPLICABLE to those of us who are His followers, and also for those who are being led by the Spirit to come to Him and to TRULY be one of His followers.

Jesus told Peter, that unless Peter was willing to be washed by Him than Peter didn't belong to Him.  If we are NOT willing to be WASHED and CLEANSED by the PRECIOUS, SOUL-CLEANSING BLOOD of our Lord Jesus Christ, then we too do NOT belong to Him.

We CANNOT come to Him any other way.  If we desire to belong to Him.  This is the ONLY WAY!! I know I have said this MANY times, but I feel led to say it again.  YOU MUST COME TO THE FATHER THROUGH THE BLOOD OF THE SPOTLESS LAMB OF GOD, the Lord Jesus Christ!!

In the last part of our scripture, Jesus is speaking to ALL of His disciples, telling them that NOW that He had set the EXAMPLE they SHOULD follow it.  And DO what He had just DONE, NOT just wash some DIRTY, SMELLY FEET, but to have a  SERVANT'S HEART, and to SERVE EACH OTHER, so lies the MESSAGE for each of God's BLOOD-BOUGHT, SOUL-CLEANSED CHILDREN, whether you like it or not WE are to be SERVANTS and not EXPECT to be SERVED, but with a JOYFUL and WILLING HEART, SERVE others.

If you are NOT a follower of Jesus, you can be by being WASHED  in the SOUL-CLEANSING blood of the SPOTLESS LAMB OF GOD BY:  CONFESSING your sins to God and asking for His FORGIVENESS, BELIEVING, with ALL your HEART, that Jesus died for YOU and is ALIVE, in Heaven making intercession for you, before God, then ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION.  Do it NOW, while you STILL can.

Living Stones

As you come to Him, a living stone rejected by men but in the sight of God chosen and precious, you yourselves like living stones are being built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.------1 Peter 2:4-5

When we come to Him, Jesus Christ, who is the CHIEF LIVING CORNERSTONE that was and STILL is being REJECTED by mankind, we become like LIVING STONES that are laid upon the CHIEF LIVING STONE in the building of a STRONG spiritual house that cannot be destroyed.

When we are a part of HIS spiritual house, we also become a part of a HOLY PRIESTHOOD that is ABLE TO OFFER spiritual sacrifices to God.  Something that we are NOT ABLE to do apart from Jesus Christ.

So in order to be a LIVING STONE in the spiritual house, that is presently under construction, and to be a part of His HOLY PRIESTHOOD, that is the ONLY ones ABLE to come to HOLY GOD with spiritual sacrifices, you must FIRST ACCEPT the CHIEF LIVING CORNERSTONE and be WILLING to be used as a LIVING STONE in the building of His spiritual house or holy temple.

You can become one of His LIVING STONES by first:  CONFESSING your sins to God and asking for His FORGIVENESS, BELIEVING, with ALL your HEART, that Jesus died for YOU and is ALIVE in Heaven making intercession for you before God, then ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION.  Do it NOW, while you STILL can.  He's waiting!!!

The Only Way!

Jesus told him,(Thomas), "I am the way, the truth, and the life.  No one can come to the Father except through Me.------John 14:6

It's AMAZING how many ways people believe are possible to be able to come into the very presence of ALMIGHTY GOD.

Some believe that you can BUY your way through, some believe that you can go through on the coat tails of another person.  Some believe you can make it through on one's OWN merits.  While still others believe one can make it through on CHURCH MEMBERSHIP.  This is the reason we have so MANY LOST church members.  And there is always those who believe they can make it through on the LIES OF FALSE TEACHERS.

However, we see CLEARLY, that Jesus said to Thomas, "I am the WAY, the TRUTH, and the LIFE.  NO ONE can COME TO THE FATHER, except by ME."  Meaning that there is NO OTHER WAY for mankind to be SAVED from their sins,  EXCEPT through the ONE AND ONLY SACRIFICE of Jesus Christ.  He IS the GATE by which we MUST enter to be able to come to FATHER GOD and receive FORGIVENESS for our sins.

If you have NEVER come through the GATE, (Jesus Christ), you have NOT yet made it through to the Father, but you have the opportunity NOW to come through the RIGHT GATE by:  CONFESSING your SINS to God and asking for His FORGIVENESS, BELIEVING, with ALL your HEART, that Jesus died for YOU and is ALIVE, in Heaven, making intercession for you before God, then ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION.  Do it NOW, while you STILL can.  He's waiting!!!

Be Exalted, O God!

I will thank You, Lord, among all the people.  I will sing Your praises among the nations.  For Your unfailing love is higher than the heavens.  Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.  Be exalted, O God, above the highest heavens.  May Your glory shine over all the earth.------Psalm 108:3-5

I believe that this should be a prayer and commitment on the lips and deep in the heart of EVERY child of the LIVING GOD.  Oh, that we would do, what the psalmist claims he will do.  If we would wake up EVERY day with the intentions to THANK the Lord among ALL the people that we come in contact with.

If we would awaken with songs of praise in our hearts, that would burst through our lips, because of His UNFAILING LOVE and FAITHFULNESS that has NO boundaries or limitations.

If we would EXALT God above the HIGHEST heavens, so that His GLORY would shine over ALL the earth, what a message that would send to this OLD, CORRUPT, SINFUL WORLD:  GOD IS ALIVE AND WELL, AND HIS MERCIES ENDURE FOREVER!!!  COME TO HIM NOW!  CONFESSING YOUR SINS TO HIM ASKING FOR HIS FORGIVENESS, BELIEVING, WITH ALL YOUR HEART, THAT JESUS DIED FOR YOU AND IS ALIVE, IN HEAVEN, MAKING INTERCESSION FOR YOU BEFORE GOD, THEN ACCEPT HIS GIFT OF SALVATION.  HE'S WAITING!!!

One Way To the Father

There is only one God, and He makes people right with Himself only by faith, whether they are Jews or Gentiles.  Well, then, if we emphasize faith, does this mean that we can forget about the law?  Of course not!  In fact, only when we have faith do we truly fulfill the law.------Romans 3:30-31

There is only ONE WAY by which mankind might be saved, and that WAY is through the ONLY sacrifice that is able to atone for ALL the sins of mankind, that ULTIMATE SACRIFICE is the SHED BLOOD of our REDEEMER, the Lord Jesus Christ.

When we come to Him by FAITH, not out of curiosity or because someone else has come by FAITH, or because we think we are getting "fire insurance," (a way to avoid going to hell), but when we come to Him based on OUR TRUE, GENUINE FAITH, then we are made RIGHT with God, regardless of who we are.
So does this mean that we can just forget about the law?  Definitely NOT!  ONLY by FAITH in the ONE who gave the law, ALMIGHTY GOD, can the law be fulfilled.  Jesus said that He came NOT to abolish the law, but that the law through Him, might be fulfilled.  So when we put our FAITH in JESUS CHRIST we are fulfilling the law.

If you are NOT right with God, you are wasting your FAITH, by putting it in something that will NOT secure your eternity in Heaven, but there is a WAY, that has been provided for YOU.  All you have to do is come to God by FAITH, and you do that by: CONFESSING your sins to God and asking FORGIVENESS, BELIEVING, with ALL your HEART, that Jesus died for YOU and is ALIVE, making intercession for you before God, then ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION!  Do it NOW, while you STILL can.  He's waiting!!!

Undeserved Grace

Once we were also ruled by the selfish desires of our bodies and minds.  We had made God angry, and we were going to be punished like everyone else.  But God was merciful!  We were dead because of our sins, but God loved us so much He made us alive with Christ, and God's gift of undeserved grace is what saves you.------ Ephesians 2:3-5

I think that every now and then EVERY TRUE CHILD of the LIVING GOD needs to reflect on our past, before we WERE DRAWN to the Lord Jesus for the SALVATION of our souls.

We need to UNDERSTAND that our past was like any other sinner, we were RULED by the selfish DESIRES of the flesh, which made us enemies of God, and we were DESTINED to be PUNISHED, like all other sinners, because of our sins.

But that is NOT the END of the story.  God was MERCIFUL!  He loved US SO MUCH that He made a plan for US to be able to AVOID the PUNISHMENT, through the DEATH, BURIAL and RESURRECTION of His ONE and ONLY SON, the Lord Jesus Christ, He brought us from a spiritual DEATH to EVERLASTING LIFE, in other words He made us ALIVE with Christ.  This was accomplished ONLY through God's gift of UNDESERVED GRACE.  It was not by ANYTHING we have done, other than ACCEPT that gift of UNDESERVED GRACE, in order to be SAVED.

If you are NOT a Child of the Living God, and you have NEVER ACCEPTED His gift of UNDESERVED GRACE, you are an enemy of God and will receive His PUNISHMENT.  You can come to Him NOW and receive His gift of UNDESERVED GRACE instead by:  CONFESSING your sins to God and asking for His FORGIVENESS, BELIEVING, with ALL your HEART, that Jesus died for YOU and is ALIVE, in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God, then ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION (undeserved grace).  Do it NOW, while you STILL can.  He's waiting!!!

Your Real Life

Think about the things of Heaven, not the things of earth.  For you died to this life, and your real life is hidden with Christ in God.  And when Christ, who is your life, is revealed to the world, you will share in all His glory.------Colossians 3:2-4


As Children of the Living God, our minds need to be set on the things that are in Heaven and NOT on the things of this world.  We should be SEPARATED from the desires and ways of this world because when we gave our HEARTS and LIVES to Jesus we DIED to this old, sinful life and ACCEPTED our NEW LIFE in Christ Jesus.

Our MINDS and HEARTS should reflect on the THINGS OF HEAVEN and we SHOULD LIVE our lives as God would have us to.  Then when Christ, who indwells us, by the POWER and PRESENCE of the Holy Spirit, is revealed to this world we, who are faithful, will share in His GLORY!!!

If you have NEVER given your HEART and LIFE to Jesus and will not be able to share in His glory, you can change that NOW by:  CONFESSING your sins to God and asking for His FORGIVENESS, BELIEVING, with ALL your HEART, that Jesus died for YOU and is ALIVE, in HEAVEN, making intercession for you before God, then ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION.  Do it NOW, while you STILL can.  He's waiting!!!

Walk the Talk and Talk the Walk!

I will walk before the Lord in the land of the living.  I will lift up the cup of salvation and call on the name of the Lord, I will offer to you the sacrifice of thanksgiving and call on the name of the Lord.------Psalm 116:9, 13, 17

In this day and time in which we live, we are being coerced to be tolerant of other religions and faiths, while shunning the Christian faith.  We as Christians are not allowed to let our children pray in schools, yet there are some schools that cater to another religion and allows them to bring their prayer rugs and provide for their children to have designated prayer times.

We are told NOT to express our Christian beliefs because we might OFFEND someone of another faith.

Well, I believe these verses gives us DIVINE guidance as to how we should conduct ourselves, as believers of the ONE AND ONLY TRUE AND LIVING GOD!  We SHOULD live our lives in this world like the BLOOD-BOUGHT, SANCTIFIED, GLORIFIED, CHILDREN OF THE ONE AND ONLY GOD OF THIS UNIVERSE!!!  And we SHOULD lift up our SALVATION and NOT be ashamed to let this SINFUL, SICK, OLD, CORRUPT WORLD know to whom we belong.

We SHOULD WILLINGLY offer up to the ONE and ONLY TRUE, LIVING GOD our SACRIFICE OF THANKSGIVING, not just once, but DAILY for He ALONE is WORTHY!

If you are NOT a believer of the ONE and ONLY TRUE and LIVING GOD, you can be by:  CONFESSING your sins to God and asking for His FORGIVENESS, BELIEVING, with ALL your HEART, that Jesus died for YOU and Is ALIVE, in Heaven, making intercession for you before God, then ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION, and offer up to HIM your sacrifice of thanksgiving.  Do it NOW, while you STILL can.  He's waiting!!!

Coming Into the Presence of Almighty God

We are made right with God by placing our faith in Jesus Christ.  And this is true for everyone who believes, no matter who we are.------Romans 3:22

Our righteousness is to God, as filthy, putrid, stinky rags.   We cannot come into the presence of HOLY, RIGHTEOUS God on our OWN MERITS, but ONLY through the SACRIFICIAL merits of the HOLY, RIGHTEOUS LAMB of the ALMIGHTY God.  Who is the one, who has provided the PERFECT PLAN for mankind to be able to come into His presence.

We can ONLY obtain this entrance to the ALMIGHTY through our FAITH in Jesus Christ, who is the HOLY, RIGHTEOUS LAMB, that was sacrificed for the sins of ALL mankind.

This is TRUE for EVERYONE, who believes, no matter who we are or what we have, we cannot INFLUENCE, PERSUADE OR BUY our way into the very presence of Almighty God.

So if you are searching for a way to come into His presence, and please, KNOW THAT HOLY, RIGHTEOUS God ONLY hears and answers the prayers of His OWN.  The Only prayer of an unbeliever that He hears is the prayer of REPENTANCE, YOU MUST be a BELIEVER to be able to come into His presence.  The way for you to become a BELIEVER is to:  CONFESS your sins to God and ask for His FORGIVENESS, BELIEVING, with ALL your HEART, that Jesus died for YOU and is ALIVE, in Heaven, making intercession for you before God, then ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION.  Do it NOW, while you STILL can.  He's waiting!!!

Follow the Leader

With all your heart you must trust the Lord and not your own judgment.  Always let Him lead you, and He will clear the road for you to follow. Don't ever think you are wise enough, but respect the Lord and stay away from evil.------Proverbs 3:5-7

Daily we are faced with decisions that we must make.  Some are hard and some are easy, but in EVERY situation we, who are God's children, NEED to put our TRUST in His judgment and not solely in our own.

We NEED to let Him be our GUIDE, and FOLLOW His guidance, because He has ALREADY gone before us and knows quite well the path we MUST take.

Therefore, we MUST NOT assume that we are wise enough to make these decisions on our OWN judgments, but we MUST TRUST the Lord and RELY on His WISDOM.

To be ABLE to do this we need to have a HEALTHY respect for our Lord and STAY AWAY from the evil things that are all around us, and would have an influence in our decision making.

If you are NOT a child of God, and are STRUGGLING with making decisions on your own, you can change your path by:  CONFESSING your sins to God and asking for His FORGIVENESS, BELIEVING  with ALL your HEART, that Jesus died for YOU, and is ALIVE, in Heaven, making intercession for you before God, then ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION. Do it NOW, while you STILL can.  He's waiting!!!

God's Building Plan

You are like a building with the apostles and prophets as the foundation and with Christ as the most important stone.  Christ is the one who holds the building together and makes it grow into a holy temple for the Lord.  And you are part of that building Christ has built as a place for God's own Spirit to live.------Ephesians 2:20-22

Christ is in a building program and as Christians we are a part of His building.  Every building NEEDS a SURE foundation, which in Christ's building that SURE foundation consists of the apostles and prophets of old.

Christ is the MOST IMPORTANT stone.  He is the CHIEF CORNERSTONE and is what holds the building together and what all the other stones are laid upon.  He is what makes it grow into a HOLY TEMPLE for the Lord God Almighty.  We, who have given our hearts and lives to Him are a part of the building which Christ has built.

This should humble us to know that we are a part of the very building that houses the very SPIRIT of the LIVING, HOLY, ALMIGHTY GOD. It should evoke us to STRENGTHEN our spiritual beings to be a STRONG, CAPABLE stone in the HOLY TEMPLE of the ALMIGHTY.

If you are not a part of this VERY IMPORTANT building, you can be, by: CONFESSING your sins to God and asking for His FORGIVENESS, BELIEVING, with ALL your HEART, that Jesus died for YOU and is alive in Heaven, making intercession for you before God, then ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION.  Do it NOW, while you STILL can.  He's waiting!!!

The Worst Disease Known to Man

And Isaiah said about the people of Israel, "All day long the Lord has reached out to people who are stubborn and refuse to obey."------Romans 10:21

We are living in a world that is DYING because of a DEADLY disease that over the ages has been DEVASTATING to ALL of God's creation.  It's affects are much more DANGEROUS than the DREADED Ebola virus and much more DEADLY.

The DEADLY, DEVASTATING, DANGEROUS AND DREADED DISEASE is called SIN!  SIN can wipe out ENTIRE civilizations.  SIN effects EVERYBODY and if not TREATED it will bring misery, heartache, troubles, despair, hatred, strife, and DEATH, not just a PHYSICAL DEATH but a SPIRITUAL DEATH from which your will NEVER RECOVER and most definitely be TORMENTED with PAIN and AGONY through ALL of ETERNITY, with NO way of ESCAPE.

There is a CURE for this HORRIBLE, DEADLY disease, and you must take it IMMEDIATELY, before time runs out.  It is the ONE and ONLY cure, there is NOTHING that can be taken in place of this CURE. It MUST be administered EVERYDAY, because SIN is inevitable and will affect even God's own Children.

The CURE is:  THE SHED BLOOD of the LORD JESUS CHRIST.  The only way to receive the CURE is to come to the foot of the cross and: CONFESS your SINS to Almighty God, asking for His FORGIVENESS, BELIEVING, with ALL your HEART that Jesus died for YOU and is ALIVE, in Heaven, making intercession for you before God, then ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION.  Do it NOW, while you STILL can.  He's waiting!!!

WARNING:  Don't be STUBBORN and REFUSE to take the CURE.  For your SPIRITUAL WELL-BEING and your ETERNITY depends on it!!

An Eternal Sacrifice Made in Heaven and Carried Out On Earth!

But Christ was sinless, and He offered Himself as an eternal and Spiritual sacrifice to God.  This is why His blood is much more powerful and makes our consciences clear.  Now we can serve the living God and no longer do things that lead to death.------Hebrews 9:14

Praise God!  for the ETERNAL SACRIFICE of Jesus Christ, whose blood is more POWERFUL,  than the MOST PERFECT animal, to take away the HORRIBLE, WRETCHED SINS of ALL mankind.

We can have confidence in HIS blood, because it is from the ONE and ONLY ONE who is WORTHY and ABLE to provide a ONCE FOR ALL SACRIFICE for the Crown of Almighty God's creation.  And has the POWER to clear our consciences from the guilt of our transgressions, and to PROVIDE us with the ONLY WAY we can come before ALMIGHTY GOD with a CLEAN and CONTRITE HEART.  And makes us ABLE TO SERVE Him.

If you have never ACCEPTED that ONE AND ONLY SACRIFICE you can do it NOW by:  CONFESSING your sins to God and asking for His FORGIVENESS, BELIEVING with ALL your HEART that Jesus died for YOU and is ALIVE, in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God, then ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION!!!  Do it NOW, while you STILL can.  He's waiting

The Bridge

God wants everyone to be saved and to know the whole truth, which is, There is only one God, and Christ Jesus is the only one who can bring us to God.  Jesus was truly human, and He gave Himself to rescue all of us.  God showed us this at the right time. -------1 Timothy 2:4-6

"For God so LOVED the WORLD that He GAVE His ONLY begotten Son, that WHOEVER BELIEVES in Him shall NOT perish, but have ETERNAL LIFE."  This IS God's plan for the SALVATION of ALL mankind, and He has PROVIDED a WAY for it to be carried out.

That WAY is the ONLY WAY!!  The BRIDGE that connects mankind to Almighty God is JESUS CHRIST.  Jesus who was/is God in the flesh, TRULY HUMAN, in EVERY aspect of humanity, but STILL EVERY bit GOD in EVERY aspect of Godliness, gave HIMSELF to RESCUE or SAVE mankind from the CONDEMNATION that awaits ALL who do not come to God, by way of the BRIDGE, Jesus Christ, for the SALVATION of their souls.

Have you come to God, the Father, for the SALVATION of your soul, by way of the BRIDGE, Jesus Christ, the ONE and ONLY WAY?  You can do it NOW by:  CONFESSING your sins to God and asking for His FORGIVENESS, BELIEVING with ALL your HEART that Jesus died for YOU and is ALIVE, in Heaven, making intercession for you before God, then ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION. Do it NOW, while you STILL can.  He's waiting!!!

A Legacy Worth Living For

I will declare wise sayings, I will speak mysteries from the past-----things we have heard and known that our fathers have passed down to us.  We must not hide them from their children, but must tell a future generation the praises of the Lord, His might and the wonderful works He has performed.  So that they might put their confidence in God and not forget God's works, but keep His commands.-----Psalm 78:2-4,7

As I read this portion of Scriptures, my mind took me back to a time when God was a huge part of the family unit.  A time when we taught our children about a loving, compassionate God that loves and cares SO very much about them that He gave His ONE and ONLY Son to die on a cross for their sins, providing a WAY for them to go to Heaven for all eternity, these teachings were not just done in Church, but carried out within the homes and conducted mostly by the dad.

Children were taught and encouraged to live godly lives by practicing high moral standards, those characteristics that would be pleasing to Holy God and would make them HONORABLE and TRUSTWORTHY adults in every aspect of their being.

Society had some problems to deal with, NOTHING like we have today.  There were NO shootings in schools, and VERY few if any in the workplaces.  In some places, the people could lay down at night and peacefully sleep with their doors unlocked.  Children could walk to school or ride their bikes to a friend's house without fear of being abducted by somebody with a sick, perverted mind.

I have said all of this to lead to these VERY IMPORTANT questions.  What are we teaching our children today?  What kind of example are we setting for them?  What kind of legacy are we leaving for them?  What kind of  ETERNITY are we preparing them for?

Are they being exposed to the LOVE of God and encouraged to live for the ONE who died for them? to be able to live HONORABLE and TRUSTWORTHY LIVES?

If you can't provide that type of environment, because you have NOT been exposed to it, you can be, by:  CONFESSING your sins to God and asking for His FORGIVENESS, BELIEVING, with ALL your HEART that Jesus died for YOU and is ALIVE, in HEAVEN, making intercession for you, before God, then ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION.  Do it NOW, while you STILL can.  He's waiting!!!

Departure From the Faith

Now the Spirit explicitly says that in later times some will depart from the faith, paying attention to deceitful spirits and the teachings of demons.-----1 Timothy 4:1

We are living in those LATER TIMES, our world is consumed with EVERYTHING and ANYTHING that is contrary to God.

We see it EVERYDAY in EVERY PART of our lives from the world of ENTERTAINMENT to the world of EDUCATION, and all that is in between.

Many, who have professed to believe in the ONE TRUE GOD have been "taken in" by the influences of the god of this world, and have left the influences of the RIGHTEOUS AND HOLY GOD of this UNIVERSE.  They are FOLLOWING and LIVING in the DARKNESS of a FALLEN and PERVERTED WORLD.  Allowing the deceitful spirits and demons to have control over their minds and hearts and their eternity.

If you are one of those who are being influenced by the god of this world, and are living in darkness, you can change that, by either turning or returning, to Almighty God, which ever the case might be, by:  CONFESSING your sins to God and asking for His FORGIVENESS, BELIEVING, with ALL your HEART that Jesus died for YOU and is Alive, in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God, then ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION. Do it NOW, while you STILL can.  He's waiting!!!
