Why I Believe

Hi

First of all, what is faith ?. Faith is believing in something you cannot see, cannot touch but you know it is real. Who imparts this faith ?. You can put your faith in people, but are you sure that faith is sound? Will they let you down ? they could do.

There is only one thing, one certainty that man can have faith in. That is faith in believing and knowing that Jesus Christ lives !. By this faith in the only begotten Son of God you will have eternal life.Who says so ? none other then God the Father Himself. I am a weak person, physically I am a wreck. I have a  tear in my shoulder, arthritis of the spine, no teeth, bad vision and deafness. Yet I know by faith that one day my body will be perfect in every way, without blemish, without any defect at all. Not just my body though, my spirit as well will be renewed, made perfect by God`s mighty hand. God does not lie, He cannot lie, it`s not in His character. In God is perfect love, not the love of this world for that is a pale shadow of love.God wants you to experience this perfect love now before it is too late, as well as in everlasting fellowship with Him in eternal life.

God has said that not everybody will believe. That He has blinded the minds of those who live to gain riches, through corruption and deceit. Also all those who choose to live by their own rules or the devil`s. God hates vanity, and any form of evil. Anybody who does not accept what God has given through the blood of His only begotten Son will be judged for everything they have done during their lifetime. Are you ready to face the judgment of Almighty God ?.

There is one way, and only one way by which you can escape this judgment. That is by truly believing and accepting what Jesus Christ has done for you through His death and resurrection.

Hi, I have tried to explain why I believe. Now I will try to explain WHAT I believe and why.

First of all , I believe in the creation story in the Bible. Why I believe is because it makes more sense then the story of evolution. If man evolved from apes why are chimpanzees so dumb ? Yes, you can teach them how to USE a computer, but you could never teach them how to read and write to the extent that they could compose a simple letter to Santa Claus ! or teach them how to build a computer, no matter how much time it takes. Also chimps will never be able to talk as we do, they have no voice box or vocal chords, the noises a chimp makes comes through inhaling and exhaling air.

I could be here writing for ever telling you what I believe and why. If you want to know why I believe, please ask me any questions, and by the power of God`s Spirit in me, not by my own thinking but His I will answer you but God will supply my words.

God will not lie or distort the truth, for He wants YOU to know the truth, He wants YOU to be saved so YOU can fellowship with Him for ever in His perfect love. Not that You loved Him, but that He loves YOU more then you could ever know. He has proved this by letting His only Son die for YOU so you can have this perfect relationship with Him, our perfect Creator....To God be the Glory ,for ever and ever ....Amen.

 Doesn`t it make more sense that mankind was perfect in the first place, created by a Divine being who loves and cares for us so much that He created a perfect plan in order for us to see how much He truly loves us. By showing us His perfect character in His Son Jesus Christ, by proving to us, who doesn`t deserve to live let alone fellowship with Him for ever, that perfect way by which we can be with Him and know everything that He knows, for God has said in the person of Jesus Christ that He is the way, the truth and the life, there is no other way.

 Pilate said "what is truth ? "... The truth is , Jesus, God the Father and the Holy Spirit are THE one and only true God there has ever been or will be, man has invented the rest either through his ignorance or his unbelief in the Son of God by believing the devil`s lies, and the only way that leads to salvation.

 

  God has chosen those that He wants in His Kingdom, long before the world was even created. He doesn`t want slaves that need to obey Him. He wants people to obey Him because they want to obey Him, those that know and love Him and realize how great and wonderful and loving He truly is. Are you one those chosen ones ?. Is God calling you ?. Ask Jesus to open the door to your heart and let Him in. He is the only way to eternal life, there is no other way....Believe and be saved. Amen

Give us our daily bread

Hi,

What I am going to talk about today is very controversial, and many people will disagree with me on this subject.

 I do believe when you have that revelation, that true joy and fire in your heart, that you confess your sins to Almighty God and believe truly that Jesus died for you, taking all your sin upon Himself so that you may have eternal life, and that He rose from the grave and now sits at the right hand of the Father in Heaven. If you truly believe this then you are saved, you are in God`s hands, and nothing here on earth or nothing here below or above the earth can alter that fact.

 There are many Christians today who believe that you must carry on as a disciple in order to be saved, that you must read your Bible every day and pray constantly and do good works in the church. This is false doctrine, nothing else is needed then to truly believe in your heart what Jesus has done for you on the cross and at His resurrection. I am not saying that it is not good to read the Bible every day, or to do good works for people every day, because it is. But if you believe you have to do this then you are wrong.

 Surely this is undermining the reason why Jesus came to the earth, He came to bring salvation not a doctrine, not everybody will be saved who cry out lord, lord. What did Jesus mean by this statement, did He mean that those who truly believe in Him would be turned away ? of course not ! What He meant was that there will be many people who support and follow a religion that believes in one God but does not accept Jesus Christ as the only begotten Son of God.

Satan has blinded and confused mankind by raising up many religions, these religions contradict each other, and distort the true word of God which is the Holy Bible, the gospel of Jesus Christ. 

There are many religions today that believe Jesus Christ was just a prophet sent by God, a mortal man who now lies in a grave somewhere. This is so wrong, they believe in God but do not believe in the Trinity of God, There are three parts that make up our awesome, wonderful God and they are all equal, all one.

Also, there are many religions that worship a man or woman or some created object, such as the sun or the virgin Mary. God looks at this and sees them worshiping idols and not Him. There are those that have made their religion a football team or a pop idol, but still believe in a god, but not the Trinity.

These are the people, and there are many millions of them who cry out lord, and will not be heard by God because they have not believed in their heart that Jesus is the Son of God, and not confessed their sins and received redemption for them by Jesus`s death and resurrection. These are the people that will be left behind at the time of the Rapture, these are the people that will have to go through the Great Tribulation and then they will see the truth, but many will follow the new religion in fear of their lives, instead of trusting in God and believing in Jesus to save them.

There are billions of people who follow a religion which does not include the only way to salvation, the death and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. The devil is responsible for this, he has done this deliberately so that mankind would be confused and bewildered and not believe in Jesus. Christianity is not a religion, it is a way of life. A way that leads to eternal life, by believing the Bible instead of the devil`s lies and false teaching. It is a way laid down by God to show us the best way to live by believing in His Word and not the lies of man or the devil. Living this way is good and with God`s help we can overcome the power and the hold that the devil has over us, but God has made it crystal clear. There is only one way we can be saved, not by living as a Christian but by believing as a Christian.  ......Believe and be saved....Thank You Jesus, Amen

How I Was Saved

Hi,

I was a weak young man, spiritually as well as physically. I didn`t believe in anything God, the devil, I just wanted to have a good time ; never mind the consequences.

  I had no self confidence whatsoever, although when I started work, my confidence did improve, but not by much. I was thin, very thin and used to wear jumpers under my shirt to make my self look bigger. No, I did not like myself very much, in fact I would say that I hated myself. No self esteem at all, I found it hard to make friends and form relationships, because I was so shy and without confidence. I became a heavy smoker and gambler, I played the fruit machines, sometimes I lost all my wages, including my keep. Then I had to borrow money off work colleagues so I could give my parents my keep, it was a vicious circle, sometimes I would win the jackpot and then proceed to put it all back in. I did not know why I did this,I was hopelessly addicted to those machines, and because of this and the smoking never had any money.

This all drove me to the brink of suicide, I tried to cut my wrists but never even had the " courage " to do that. I used to cry myself to sleep, feeling inadequate and alone in my suffering. I couldn`t see any way out, any way in which I could go on living.

What I didn`t know was that this was all part of God`s plan for my life. Sometimes you have to be in a position like this to hear what God is saying to you. God used a young man where I worked called Clive, to bring me to Him. This young man saw the state I was in ,as I was unshaven and hadn`t had a decent night`s sleep for weeks. He asked me if I was o.k. and I said no and began to tell him all about my life, the addictions and the attempted suicides also how I was crying myself to sleep.

He listened to me, here I was pouring out my life to a person whom I hardly knew.I knew Clive was a Christian, but didn`t really know what a Christian was. I thought, as many people thought, that he was just a "bible puncher" pushing his religion at people and annoying them.

Clive listened attentively, listening to every word I said. He never interrupted me, just waited for to finish what I was saying. Then he asked me if I have ever heard of Jesus. I said I knew of Him, because I won religious knowledge prizes at school,so I knew He was a prophet or something and He died on a cross. Clive then proceeded to tell me who Jesus was and what He did for me through His death and resurrection. I didn`t really take what he said in, and he could see I was confused, so, he wrote down a few Bible verses for me to read when I got home.

 To cut a long story short, I found my old Bible, the one I had won for a peek prize many years ago, I do not think that I ever opened it. I went to bed early, which in itself was unusual, as most times I used to stay up watching t.v. until the national anthem came on at the end of the broadcast.

  I started to read the gospel verses that Clive had wrote down, nothing made much sense, then I  came to the part where Jesus healed the man with the withered hand, it was like suddenly I was there, standing beside this poor man, I saw the man`s hand being healed. I saw the bones forming ,then the veins and sinews and the skin stretching over the bones as Jesus touched him, and then I had a revelation, if this Jesus could do this then HE MUST BE THE SON OF GOD  Suddenly my room was filled with light, so bright I had to shield my eyes. Then I heard a voice, this voice said one word " Colin" my name. I knew then I was saved, I knew then I had changed, in an instant Jesus had called my name, and I was filled with so much joy it was overwhelming. 

 The following Sunday I couldn`t wait to get to a church and tell everybody I was saved. I sang, and as I sang tears were rolling down my cheeks. I knew that God was softening my heart, giving me His love and His truth, the truth of the gospel of Jesus, God`s only begotten Son.

 Within a short space of time the addiction to gambling was gone.I was no longer held by the devil in this area. God had taken this addiction from me .

There are still lots of things in my life that need to be dealt with, I will always be a sinner while I am in this body, and will continue to sin although I will try  not to. For I love Jesus and know what He has done for me, because He loves me and chose to die for me, I will try not to sin, but seek the way out that God has provided for me.

  . I have learned many thing now, but still have lots to learn about the way God uses people to do His work,to destroy the plans of the devil. The devil is defeated, Jesus achieved victory at the cross and His resurrection, the problem is the devil does not know that he is defeated, and there is nothing he can do to avert his fate that awaits him and those that follow him. Which is eternal damnation in the lake of fire.

Now I am free from the addiction of tobacco, again, I give God all the glory. I just want to move forward in Christ now, to know Him more to be more like Him, and to Praise and Glorify His wonderful name, for there is no other name under heaven by which you can be saved.....Believe and be Saved..
