KNOWING THE PURPOSE OF OUR EXISTENCE

 


Happiness is not the meaning of our existence. Your meaning is much greater than this.

Your Reality

Is your life simply to be born, grow up, find a job, have a family, enjoy your life, and then die? Is that all there is? Definitely not. We’re made for so much more. Your purpose of existence is to know God.

John 17:3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.

After we die, the Bible says we’ll face God as our Judge. Have you ever rebelled (sinned) against God?

Examine yourself by God’s Law the Ten Commandments.

You shall have no other gods before me. (Have you kept God first in your life?)

Deuteronomy 5:7 Thou shalt have none other gods before me.

You shall not lie. (Have you lied even once?)

Proverbs 12:22 Lying lips are abomination to the Lord:

You shall not steal. (Have you ever stolen anything irrelevant of the value?)

Exodus 20:15 Thou shalt not steal.

You shall not take God’s name in vain. (Have you ever used God’s holy name as a cuss word (“Jesus Christ” or Oh my God”)? It’s called blasphemy.

Exodus 20:7 Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.

You shall not commit adultery. (Have you lusted after someone or had sex before marriage?) 

Matthew 5: 27-28 Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery: But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.

You shall not murder. (Have you hated someone which is murder of the heart?)

1 John 3:15 Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him.

In God’s courtroom, our sins are very serious crimes. He will even judge our words and thoughts. This how serious sin is to God. If you have violated any of God’s laws, you will be guilty on Judgement Day. The penalty of sin is death and you will end up in a terrible place called Hell.

1 Corinthians 6:9-10 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,

Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

Revelation 20:15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

Your Hope

However, the Bible says God is rich in mercy and in His great kindness He provided a Saviour.

Jesus Christ took the punishment for the sin of the world. He died on the cross so that we could be forgiven, then He rose from the dead three days later and defeated death. Hundreds saw Him after His resurrection. It's no fairy tale. Jesus fulfilled all the prophecies about the promised Saviour, which are written in the Holy Scriptures hundreds of years before His birth.

Romans 5:8,9 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.

1 Corinthians 15:3-4 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

Your Destiny

All religions are man’s attempt to rid themselves of sin through religious rites, traditions, and good works. Attending church can’t save you; only a relationship with God through Jesus Christ. God doesn’t want you to go to hell. Neither do you want to go there. To receive everlasting life, believe, repent and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ alone to save you. God will forgive your sins and grant you everlasting life. God will give you a new nature (Born-Again) and He will walk with you through the Holy Spirit. Eternal life is a free gift. You can’t earn it by doing anything. Then read the Bible daily and ask God to help you obey what you read.

Ephesians 2:8-9 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.

John 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:  

Blessing in Christ.

HOW CAN A SINNER BE JUSTIFIED IN THE SIGHT OF GOD?

 


A sinner can only be made right with God through faith in the substitutionary atonement through the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The sinless Saviour laid down His life willingly, endured suffering, and died a horrendous death on the cross for the forgiveness of the sins of the whole world, but only those who would believe the gospel would be justified. Justification is when God makes sinners right in His sight when they believe and trust in Jesus Christ alone as their Lord and Saviour Romans 3:21-28.

Justification means that a believer is justified as if he or she never sinned in the sight of God. God doesn't just forgive you; He does more than that; He justifies you as though the sin has never been committed and that it was done by the precious blood of Jesus Christ shed on the cross through faith alone in Him.

Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. Romans 5:9 

Justification is the imputation of the righteousness of Christ to the repentant sinner. The sinless Saviour went to the cross as a substitute for all of us by taking the punishment of all of our sins, and only those who have appropriated the atonement are made righteous or not guilty in God's sight.

For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him. 2 Corinthians 5:21 

Justification is having peace with God through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ alone.

Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: Romans 5:1 

Justification is when a condemned sinner who deserves eternal death is declared righteous in God's sight.

Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:

That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord. Romans 5:12,21 

The apostle Paul teaches that believers in Christ are not justified by their works but by God's grace and mercy.

Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; Titus 3:5 

Justification means that when you believe and trust in Jesus Christ alone as Lord and Saviour, you are sealed with the Holy Spirit and baptised into the body of Christ.

For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit. 1 Corinthians 12:13 

In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, Ephesians 1:13 

Jesus Christ completed the work required for our justification on the cross. He said, "It is finished." the last words He spoke before He died on the cross, meaning the debt of our sins has already been paid.

When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost. John 19:30

The moment you humble yourself, believe, repent (change of mind from unbelief to belief) in what Jesus Christ has done for you on the cross, He laid down His life willingly so that you could be forgiven and defeated sin and death by His glorious resurrection. Only then are you justified, declared righteous or not guilty, and receive the free gift of salvation. You will then be filled with the Holy Spirit and born again (God will change you from within), and your place in heaven is prepared.

That being justified by his grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life. Titus 3:7

We can only be justified by Grace Alone, through Faith Alone, in Christ Alone, Scripture Alone, for the glory of God alone!

 

Blessings in Christ.

SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT

 



Everything you hold dear is going to be torn from your hands by death. Whether we like it or not, we are all part of the ultimate statistic: Ten out of ten die.

And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: Hebrews 9:27 

Death happens because we have sinned and violated the moral laws of God. The Ten commandments.

For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Romans 3:23 

With a tender conscience ask yourself if you have obeyed the following:

You shall have no other gods before Me.

(Have you always kept God first in your life?)

Thou shalt have no other gods before me. Exodus 20:3 

Thou shall not lie. (Have you lied even once? Including answering these questions).

A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall not escape.

Proverbs 19:5 

You shall not steal. (Have you ever stolen anything irrelevant of the value?)

Thou shalt not steal. Exodus 20:15 

You shall not take God’s name in vain. (Have you ever used God’s name as a cuss word? “Jesus Christ or Oh my God”?)

Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain. Exodus 20:7 

You shall not commit adultery. (Have you lusted after someone or had sex before marriage?)

Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:

But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart. Matthew 5:27-28 

You shall not murder. (Have you hated someone? Which is murder of the heart.)

Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him. 1 John 3:15 

If you have answered Yes to any of these questions, by your own admission you’re a lying, thieving, blasphemer, adulterer, idolater and murderer at heart. That’s how God sees you: nothing is hidden from His Holy eyes.

For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil. Ecclesiastes 12:14 

The Bible says that if we have broken even one of God’s commandments, we are guilty of breaking all His laws.

For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.

James 2:10 

God is holy, just and righteous and will even judge our thoughts, word and deeds. This is how serious sin is to God. If you have violated any of God’s laws, you will be guilty on Judgement Day. The penalty of sin is death, and you will end up in a terrible place called Hell.

But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. Revelation 21:8 

It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. Hebrews 10:31

However, the Bible says God is rich in mercy, and in His great kindness, He provided a Saviour, Jesus, who took the punishment for the sin of the world. He died on the cross so that we could be forgiven, then rose from the dead and defeated death. God doesn’t want you to go to Hell. Neither do you want to go there. To receive everlasting life as a free gift, believe, repent, trust, and have faith in the Lord Jesus Christ alone and the sacrifice made through His precious blood shed on the cross through His death, burial, and resurrection.

But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. Romans 5:8,9 

God will forgive your sins and grant you everlasting life. God will give you a new nature (born-again), and He will walk with you through the Holy Spirit. Eternal life is a free gift. You can’t earn it by doing anything. Then read the Holy Bible daily and ask God to help you obey what you read.

For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

Not of works, lest any man should boast. Ephesians 2:8,9 

Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.

John 5:24 

Blessings in Christ.

THE DECEPTION OF THE THEORY OF EVOLUTION

 



Charles Darwin, in full Charles Robert Darwin (born February 12, 1809, Shrewsbury, Shropshire, England—died April 19, 1882, Downe, Kent), was an English naturalist whose scientific theory of evolution by natural selection (process that results in the adaptation of an organism to its environment) became the foundation of modern evolutionary studies (Encyclopaedia Britannica).

Paul Lemoine, a French geologist (scientist who studies the Earth, nature, materials, and processes), quoted, "Evolution is a fairy tale for adults".

The theory of evolution is not scientific. To be scientific, it must be observable and testable. You cannot observe or test something that supposedly happened millions of years ago. Evolution is not proven and cannot be proven. It has to be accepted by blind faith.

Evolution does not make any provision for male or female. In the pictures of evolution, from ape to man standing up slowly, there is no female. It is misogynistic; there is no reproduction without a female. God destroys the theory of evolution in the following verses.

So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. Genesis 1:27 

But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female. Mark 10:6 

God reveals Himself in His creation. People have no excuse for not believing that God created all things.

For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Romans 1:18-20 

Most people who believe in evolution are atheists. The Bible says anyone who denies the existence of God is a fool.

The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good. Psalms 14:1 

They professed to be wise, yet they became fools. It is an issue of the human heart (sin).

Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, Romans 1:21,22 

The theory of evolution is a form of idolatry. Those who believe in evolution focus more on creation than the Creator. It is portrayed as science when it is not. Paul the Apostle says, "Avoid profane, vain babbling, and opposition of science falsely so called". Do not be caught up in the argument of evolution.

Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. Romans 1:25 

O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called: 1 Timothy 6:20

When God created Adam, He breathed into His nostrils the breath of life, unlike when God created the heavens, earth, light, animals, and plants, etc. He spoke and they came into existence. Human beings were created in the image and likeness of God. We have dominion over the animals.

And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. Genesis 2:7 

And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. Genesis 1:26

Many people are deceived into believing that the theory of evolution is true because it gets rid of moral responsibility, meaning there would be no sin, no judgement day, and no hell. They believe that they are just primates or that they came from animals. There is a massive difference. People believe in justice, truth, and righteousness; they set up court systems and send people to jail for doing wrong; none of the animals do that. One day we will die. It is an appointment that cannot be rescheduled or cancelled. Whether we believe it or not, all of us are waiting for the judgement to come.

And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: Hebrews 9:27
 
If you tell a lie, you're a liar.
Lying lips are abomination to the Lord: but they that deal truly are his delight.
Proverbs 12:22
 
If you steal anything, regardless of its value, you're a thief.
Thou shalt not steal. Exodus 20:15

If you use God's name in vain, you’re a blasphemer.

Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the
Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain. Exodus 20:7

If you look at someone with lust, you’re an adulterer at heart.

Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart. Matthew 5:27-28

If you're angry with anyone without a cause, you're in danger of judgement.

But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire. Matthew 5:22

If you violate any of the commandments above (James 2:10), you will be guilty on judgement day and will go to God's eternal prison a place called hell.

In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power; 2 Thessalonians 1:8,9 

Jesus Christ died on the cross so that your sins could be forgiven and defeated sin and death that you may have everlasting life with Him. His precious blood shed on the cross is sufficient to cleanse you from all sins (Ephesians 1:7).

Believe, repent and trust in Jesus Christ alone to save you from the wrath of God. You will be born again and filled with the Holy Spirit. Read the Holy Bible daily and ask God to help you obey what you read.

I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. Luke 13:3 

He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him. John 3:36 

Blessings in Christ.

THE MOST PRECIOUS GIFT

 



As we enter the Christmas season, when many people are focused on giving and receiving gifts, we would like to tell you about the most precious gift anyone could ever receive because of its eternal value. The Bible says a virgin shall be with child, and He shall be called Jesus, for He shall save His people from their sins.

And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins. Matthew 1:21 

What does this really mean? Are we not good people? Do we really need someone to save us from our sins? To clearly understand what Christmas is about, we must try to look at ourselves the way God sees us, and the way we do that is examine ourselves by His Laws (Ten Commandments).

Have you ever lied? Have you ever stolen anything, regardless of its value? Have you ever used God's name in vain (as a cuss word)? Have you ever hated someone? Have you ever looked at someone with lust?

If you tell a lie, that makes you a liar (Revelation 21:8). If you've stolen anything, regardless of its value, that makes you a thief (Exodus 20:15). If you've used God's name in vain, you're a blasphemer (Exodus 20:7). If you hate someone, you're a murderer at heart (1 John 3:15). If you've looked at a person with lust, you're committing adultery in your heart (Matthew 5:27,28).

If you've answered yes to these five questions, by your own admission, you're a liar, thief, blasphemer, murderer, and adulterer at heart. We've only looked at five of the Ten Commandments; that's how God sees you; nothing is hidden from His holy eyes.

For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil. Ecclesiastes 12:14

If God judges you by His standard, will you be innocent or guilty of breaking His laws (Ten Commandments)? Many people will admit to being guilty, but they may believe that God is good, that He forgives, and that He will overlook their sins. God is good, and because He is good, He will give a righteous judgment, or else He will be a corrupt judge.

Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. 1 Corinthians 6:9,10 

You and I will be guilty when we stand before God, but God did something wonderful for us so that we wouldn’t have to go to hell. Do you know what that was? He sent His Son, Jesus Christ born of a virgin, perfect and sinless, to die for the payment of our sins on the cross, buried then He rose on the third day and defeated sin and death so that we could have everlasting life.

Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us. Matthew 1:23 

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. John 3:16 

That’s why Jesus Christ was born—"to save his people from their sins" (Matthew 1:21) and suffer punishment in your place. If you believe, repent, put your faith and trust in Jesus Christ as the only one who can save you, then God will forgive you because Jesus precious blood shed on the cross is more than enough to cleanse you from all of your sins.

I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance. Luke 15:7 

In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace; Ephesians 1:7 

Please don’t refuse this heavenly free gift of salvation from God, which is available to anyone: a love story written in blood on the cross over than 2000 years ago. All glory to God for His incredible gift of eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour. Those who receive this incredible gift of salvation through God’s love, mercy, and grace will never suffer the eternal punishment in hell that they deserved.

Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. Acts 4:12 

May you find the true meaning of Christmas because it always begins with Christ.

Merry Christmas!


Blessings in Christ,

THE DECEPTION OF CALVINISM

 


Calvinism is a system of theology that attempts to explain the relationship between God's sovereignty and man's responsibility in the matter of salvation. Calvinism is named after John Calvin a French theologian who live from 1509-1564. John Calvin got this doctrine of Calvinism from Augustine.

The teaching of Calvinism (TULIP, 5 points) which is usually:

Total Depravity - Means that you're so deprived and dead in your sin, you don't even have the ability to come to God on your own accord. This is not true.

For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved Romans 10:13

Unconditional Election - Is the view that God elect individuals to salvation based entirely on His will. Some believe that you have been predestined to hell and others believe that you have been predestined to heaven. We reject that completely. God does not predestine anyone to hell.

The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance 2 Peter 3:9

Limited atonement - The most controversial of the 5 points. It is the belief that Jesus only died for the elect. This is not true because Jesus died for all but that His death is not effectual until a person repents, believes, and trust in Lord Jesus Christ alone.

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 John 3:16

And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel Mark 1:15

Irresistible Grace - Calvinist believe God calls a person to salvation, that a person will inevitably comes to salvation. This is not true; God calls all to salvation but many people resist and reject His call.

And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead. Acts 17:30,31

Perseverance of the Saints - Refers to the concept that a person who is elected by God will persevere in faith and will not permanently deny Christ.

The work has been already been done at the cross of calvary. Jesus said "It is finished."

When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost John 19:30

We hold to eternal security, once saved always saved.

And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand John 10:28

Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ: Philippians 1:6

Ultimately it is our view that this system fails in their attempt to explain the unexplainable. How do you know you've been chosen by God? Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and you just confirmed you've been chosen by God, because God gives you a choice in the matter.

That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation Romans 10:9,10


Blessings

CHRISTIAN VIEW OF CLIMATE CHANGE

 



Some scientists believe that greenhouse gas emissions are damaging to the environment and are causing climate change. Some environmentalists are so worried about protecting the earth. Others promote climate change for financial gain.

 As Bible-believing born-again Christians, we are not denying that we should care for creation and our environment as God commands us.

 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. Genesis 1:28

 What does the Bible say about climate change? Not much. The Bible prophesied of what could be considered climate change would be the end times of disaster. Yet these prophecies which are yet to happen have nothing to do with greenhouse gas emissions as these are the result of man’s doing which we are all a part of.

 One day God’s wrath shall pour out justice on an increasingly wicked world.

And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire. And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory. Revelation 16:8,9

There is nothing wrong with going green, trying to reduce carbon footprint, solar panels, windmills, and other energy sources but we must remember what saves mankind is the Christian gospel which needs to be heard, especially with the united voice of the world that seems like climate change is the issue above all others. That is a lie from Satan. The Bible tells us that this whole world lieth in wickedness.

And we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness. 1 John 5:19

We remember that God is Sovereign and this world is not our home. God will one day destroy this present earth in which there will be fervent heat and the earth will be burned and replaced with the New Heaven and New Earth.

But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. 2 Peter 3:10

And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. Revelation 21:1

Many people nowadays are so worried about climate change and its effects, which lead to environmental challenges such as images of droughts, melting glaciers, floods, wildfires, etc are heart-breaking but how much more terrifying fire awaits people who die without Jesus Christ, there is no second chance, for those whose names are not written in the Book of Life.

But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men. 2 Peter 3:7

And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. Revelation 20:15

However, we should not let environmental changes consume our thoughts, where things that God created are held in higher esteem than God (which is idolatry). The most urgent need for people throughout the world is to get priorities right. Instead of glorifying climate change, it is time to repent (to be sorry for who you are and what you are. To change your mind from unbelief to belief in Jesus Christ). Jesus says,

 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. Luke 13:3

When people believe, trust, and have faith in the finished work of Jesus Christ alone to save them, through His death, burial, and resurrection, His precious divine blood then cleanses them from all of their sins, then you are born again. God will fill you with the Holy Spirit and change you inwardly. Please read the Holy Bible and ask God to help you obey what you read.

Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. John 5:24

Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. John 3:3

The message of hope we proclaim is not a hope in human endeavour, nor hope in this world but the hope of the eternal world to come. There is only one name whereby we must be saved Jesus Christ alone!

Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. Acts 4:12 

  

Blessings in Christ,
