In The Beginning was The Word, and
The Word was with God, and The Word was God. He was in The Beginning with God. All Things were Made through Him, and without
Him, nothing was Made that was Made. In
Him was Life, and The Life was The Light of Men. And The Light shines in the darkness, and the
darkness did NOT Comprehend it. And
The Word became flesh and dwelt among Us, and We Beheld His Glory, The Glory as
of The Only Begotten of The Father, Full of Grace and Truth.
The
Lord Jesus Christ, lived a sin-free Life, and willingly went to His death upon
The Cross, why? Well, because He knew
this was, The Reason, He had taken human form (flesh), which was, to die upon
The Cross. The Word, became flesh, and
was given The Name, Jesus, just as God Almighty had Commanded. Jesus Christ was, fully God and fully Man. When sin entered the World, it (sin)
separated Man (and Woman), from God Almighty.
God Almighty requires a Blood Sacrifice, for The Remission (or
cleansing) of sin. For the wages
(payment) of sin, is death (an Eternal Separation from God Almighty), but The
Gift of God Almighty, is Eternal Life (in God’s Immediate Presence, for
Eternity), through Jesus Christ, Our Lord.
In other words, someone has to pay the Sin Debt, for Our sin. If We do, We will be separated from God
Almighty, for Eternity, but if someone else pays this Sin Debt, for Us, then
it’s paid. Our Lord Jesus Christ,
willingly, went to The Cross, taking upon Himself, All the sins of Mankind,
paying the Sin Debt, Once for All!
That’s right, the Sin Debt, which is required for each of Us to pay,
because of Our sin, was PAID IN FULL, Once for ALL, by Our Lord Jesus Christ,
upon The Cross (His Crucifixion). Then,
on The Third Day, God Almighty Raised Jesus Christ, Alive, from the grave (His
Resurrection). That’s right, Jesus
Christ defeated death, by The Hand of God Almighty, and was Raised from the
grave, Alive! And because Our Lord Jesus
Christ, defeated death, He broke the chains of Our bondage to sin, and it’s
Ultimate Payment, death (an Eternal Separation from God Almighty). Meaning, through Our Lord Jesus Christ, We
can have Redemption, and can be in God’s Immediate Presence, for Eternity. God’s Amazing Saving Grace, through God’s
Free Gift of Salvation. So, what must
each of Us do, to accept God’s Free Gift of Salvation, YOU ask?
Well,
YOU must admit, that YOU are a sinner, and that YOU do NOT deserve, to enter
God’s Immediate Presence. YOU must
acknowledge, Our Lord Jesus Christ’s Life, that He died upon The Cross for Your
sins (His Crucifixion), He was Raised, Alive, by God Almighty’s Hand, on The
Third Day (His Resurrection), and forty days after His Resurrection, Our Lord
Jesus Christ, was taken on a Cloud into Heaven, Alive (His Ascension). YOU must also admit, there is absolutely
nothing YOU can do, to earn Your Way, into God’s Immediate Presence. YOU must admit, that YOU are a sinner, but
that YOU Repent (that’s turn away from sin, and back towards God Almighty), and
ask God Almighty, for Forgiveness, for All of Your sin. YOU must give Your Life, over to Our Lord
Jesus Christ, placing Your Life and Your Faith, completely, in Our Lord Jesus
Christ, giving Jesus Christ control over Your Life. YOU must make God Almighty, Your First
Priority.
If
YOU Believe these things, in your heart, and YOU say a prayer to God Almighty,
acknowledging them and asking for Forgiveness, YOU will be Saved, and YOU will
Receive God’s Free Gift of Salvation.
YOU will Receive The Holy Spirit, and Our Lord Jesus Christ will come to
Abide within YOU, through The Holy Spirit.
That’s right, Our Lord Jesus Christ, comes to Abide within YOU, meaning
Jesus Christ is with YOU every single moment of every single day. This alone, should be a deterrent NOT to sin,
because if YOU do sin, who sees YOU, Our Lord Jesus Christ sees YOU. But this also means, Jesus is with YOU,
Always! Jesus walks with YOU, He sits
down beside YOU, and YOU can talk to Him, as easily, as YOU can talk to
me. Yes, God Almighty sees and knows everything! God Almighty will begin to mold and change
YOU, from the inside out. Next, YOU
should Follow Our Lord Jesus Christ, in obedience, through Believers
Baptism. Believers Baptism, is an
outward expression of your inward decision.
Meaning, YOU have privately accepted Jesus Christ, as your Lord and
Savior, and now YOU want to announce it, with a public display of Obedience, to
the World.
Now, YOU are like a newborn baby,
YOU must set aside the ways of the World, and learn the ways of God
Almighty. Our Lord Jesus Christ will
teach YOU, through The Helper, The Holy Spirit.
YOU will learn about God Almighty’s Commandments and Statutes, and those
from Our Lord Jesus Christ’s, as well.
YOU will begin setting time aside to commune (that’s pray) with God
Almighty and Our Lord Jesus Christ. YOU
will begin reading God’s Word, The Holy Bible.
YOU will not only learn, by the words YOU read, but also, God Almighty
will speak to your heart, as YOU read, revealing things He wants YOU to know,
and revealing Himself, to YOU. YOU will
learn the importance of Fellowship, with other Believers, by attending a Bible
Study or a Church, but hopefully both.
Fellowship with other Believers, helps YOU to learn more about God
Almighty, Jesus Christ, and The Holy Spirit.
Fellowship with other Believers, brings each of Us, closer to God
Almighty, because We can learn from each other, pray for each other, and
strengthen each other, etc. Remember,
when YOU accept God’s Free Gift of Salvation, YOU become a Follower of Our Lord
Jesus Christ, His Disciple. YOU are now,
Jesus Christ’s Light upon The World. As
Jesus Christ’s Disciple, your task is to share The Gospel of Jesus Christ, to
help people to understand, how much they need God Almighty in their Life, as
YOU have come to understand. The “Great
Commission” simply means, sharing The Gospel of Jesus Christ, to make more
Disciples of Jesus Christ, for The Kingdom of God Almighty! Your goal should be, that Jesus Christ’s Light
shines so brightly, in YOU, that others see, Him, instead of YOU. Also, and this is very important, YOU are to
Give God Almighty, The Glory, for everything He does through YOU and for YOU,
Always! Meaning, when God Almighty
answers your prayers or when good things happen, in your Life, Praise God, and
give God The Glory, Always! When YOU use
your Spiritual Gifts, to Preach The Gospel of Our Lord Jesus Christ, Praise
God, and give God The Glory, Always! Our
Lord Jesus Christ, through The Holy Spirit, will give YOU the words to say, and
the things to do, at the time YOU need it, so don’t worry. God Almighty has a specific Path, a path He
Created, just for YOU to walk. Will YOU
always walk His Path, no, YOU will stray, but He will always guide YOU back,
through The Holy Spirit.
Now, just
because YOU accept God's Free Gift of Salvation, it does NOT mean, YOU will no
longer sin. Will YOU still sin,
absolutely (it’s human nature, your sinful nature), but YOU will ask God
Almighty for Forgiveness, and He will Forgive and Forget, each and every time. When We acknowledge God's Amazing Saving
Grace, and We accept God's Free Gift of Salvation, We willingly do God's Prepared
Good Works, to further His Kingdom.
Remember, NO amount of Good Works, paves the way, nor earns Our way into
Heaven (God's Immediate Presence). Jesus
Christ's death upon The Cross, and consequently, His Resurrection, paid Our sin
debt, in FULL, for All (Jesus Christ died, Once for ALL). God Almighty requires
a Blood Sacrifice for the Remission, the cleansing, of sin, and Jesus Christ
paid this payment, with His Own Blood, upon The Cross, Once for ALL.
