In a world where we have so much access to the truth
of God's word through the Holy Bible, internet, books, and other media, so many
people still find it so hard to believe and trust in Jesus Christ. Many need to
see in order to believe. With all this knowledge finding the reason for
existence and the answers to where did we come from? Why are we here? Where are
we going? Still eludes many, when all the answers are in God’s word. That is
why God sent His only begotten Son Jesus Christ who is God the Word manifest in
the flesh.
In the
beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
John 1:1 KJV
And the Word
was made 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.
John 1:14 KJV
God also sent holy men, prophets, and apostles to
proclaim the truth and to put the Bible's 66 books, 39 in the Old
Testament and 27 in the New Testament are written by 40 different authors over
a period of 1,500 years. These authors lived in different places and different
times with different cultures. They had
many different occupations and lifestyles but the focus of what they have
written is the same to reveal God's heart and will for mankind. Together 66
books made into one Holy Bible, inspired by the Holy Spirit, the manual for
life itself.
And this is the
will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on
him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.
John 6:40 KJV
For the
prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as
they were moved by the Holy Ghost.
2 Peter 1:21
KJV
All scripture
is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof,
for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
2 Timothy 3:16
KJV
Everything has instructions or manuals like cars, TV’s,
mobile phones, even our food etc. How to take? How to use? How to assemble? So,
it makes sense to follow the greatest and truest words of all not from man but
from our Creator, the Lord God Almighty.
But these are
written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and
that believing ye might have life through his name.
John 20:31
Can we see the wind? No, but we can see the effects
and feel the wind on our skin, just as we can see the effects and feel the
changes in our own lives.
Jesus saith
unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are
they that have not seen, and yet have believed.
John 20:29 KJV
Making the right choice (freewill to believe) is up to
the individual. To believe, repent of our sins and trust in Jesus Christ alone as
our Lord and Saviour.
That whosoever
believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
For God so
loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth
in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
For God sent
not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him
might be saved.
He that
believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned
already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of
God.
John 3:15-18 KJV
We have made our choice by God's mercy and grace, to
believe and trust in God’s word through His Son Jesus Christ, led by the Holy
Spirit.
For I am not
ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to
everyone that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
For therein is
the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The
just shall live by faith.
Romans 1:16,17
KJV
This free gift of salvation is available for all who repent,
believe, and trust in Jesus Christ alone, there is nothing more important than
your eternal destiny, Heaven or Hell. No one is guaranteed tomorrow today is
the day of Salvation.
(For he saith,
I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I
succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of
salvation.)
2 Corinthians
6:2 KJV
For whosoever
shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
Romans 10:13
KJV
Blessings in Christ.
David and Gay
