"The Protection of the TRUE Child of God"

 

“The Protection of the TRUE Child of God”

 

We know that God’s Children do not make a practice of sinning, for God’s Son holds them securely, and the evil one cannot touch them.  We know that we are Children of God and that the world around us is under the control of the evil one.      1 John 5:18-19

 

It is the CHARACTER of the TRUE CHILD of GOD, to NOT CONTINUE or to NOT PRACTICE sinning.  We, who are the TRUE CHILDREN of GOD, are NOT TOTALLY SINLESS, but it SHOULD be the DESIRE of EVERY TRUE CHILD of GOD to be OBEDIENT to GOD and His Laws.  And to PLEASE Him with our life-style.  This means that we SHOULD be DILIGENT in LIVING BY FAITH and NOT by the FLESH.  And we are ABLE to NOT CONTINUALLY PRACTICE SINNING, because of Jesus Christ, the Son of God, who PROTECTS and SECURELY HOLDS us, and the evil one CANNOT touch us.  We are PROTECTED by JESUS.

 

It is DIFFICULT to live a NEW LIFE, in this WICKED, PERVERTED, CORRUPT WORLD, that is controlled by Satan.  But it is NOT IMPOSSIBLE, because Jesus has sent the HOLY SPIRIT to be our COUNSELOR and our GUIDE.  All we need to do is SURRENDER to Him and allow Him to WORK through us.  By the POWER of the ALMIGHTY GOD, we can be MORE than CONQUERORS, because we belong to Him.  And being BORN of GOD, gives us the PROTECTION of His POWER, and those who are NOT BORN of GOD are under the POWER of the evil one, who will lead the UNBELIEVER to an ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE, after they are there. 

 

To PROCLAIM you are of the FAMILY of GOD, doesn’t necessarily mean that you actually are.  You must TRULY POSSESS the TRUE CHARACTER of a CHILD of GOD, through your LOVE and PERSERVANCE.  And STRIVING to LIVE by FAITH, under the PROTECTION of the LORD JESUS CHRIST.  In John 17:12, 15, Jesus was speaking to God concerning His Disciples: “While I was with them, I protected them and kept them safe by that name you gave Me.  None has been lost except the one doomed to destruction so that Scripture would be fulfilled.  My prayer is not that you take them out of the world, but that you protect them from the evil one.”   Jesus loves us SO MUCH that He GAVE His Life, so that MANKIND might have EVERLASTING LIFE in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS.  And by His SACRIFICE we are brought into the FAMILY of GOD, as His CHILDREN, who are PROTECTED by the BLOOD of JESUS and to be with the FATHER GOD and HIS SON in HEAVEN, our ETERNAL HOME.  Do you have this PROTECTION?

 

If you have NOT given your HEART and LIFE to GOD, and are LIVING by the FLESH, under the INFLUENCE of the evil one, who is leading you to an ETERNITY in HELL and NO WAY to ESCAPE, once you are there, you do NOT have the PROTECTION of The ALMIGHTY GOD.  But it is His desire that you would be able to POSSESS His PROTECTION, by WILLINGLY TURNING AWAY FROM your sinful life-style, and TURNING TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  CONFESSING your sins to Him, and asking Him for His FORGIVENESS.  And BELIEVING, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God.  You MUST ACCEPT His Gift of SALVATION and His PROTECTION against the evil one, and spend your ETERNITY in HEAVEN, with ALL its BLESSINGS.  So, do this NOW, while you still can.  He’s WAITING and COMING SOON!!!
