WHO DO YOU SAY I AM?
Jesus Christ is my savior. He is the name above all names, the King of Kings and the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world.
He came into the world to save us. All we need to do is realize that, confess our sins, accept Jesus into our heart and begin living for the King.
STATEMENT OF FAITH
- I believe in God the Father, Jesus the Son and the Holy Spirit as one.
- I believe that the Bible is the inspired, flawless, authoritative Word of God.
- God the Son, Jesus Christ, came down to Earth via a virgin birth, performed miracles, taught, was tempted, remained sinless and was crucified for our sins. He rose out of the grave and ascended to Heaven. Without the Lamb of God taking our sins away, we would have no path to Heaven.
- We (male and female) are made in God's image.
- I believe in the resurrection of the dead.
- I believe in Heaven and hell. There will be judgement & eternal torment for unbelievers.
GETTING INTO HEAVEN
While many people try to reason about many ways to get into Heaven ("I'm a good person", "I give to charity", "I'm one with nature", etc), there is only 1 (one) way into the Kingdom. And that way is Jesus Christ.
THE KING RETURNS
Jesus Christ is coming again and those of us who are His will be caught up with Him. It's going to be glorious.
When is He coming you ask? While I believe we are nearing that time. I don't know. No one does. It could be tonight or 20 years from now.
I do know that it will be a surprise to all as only the Father knows the time. Until then, we look up and await our King's arrival while being busy about our Father's work.
Are you ready for His coming?
OUR GOD IS MIGHTY TO SAVE!
Are you saved?
If not, now is a great time to do it.
We've all sinned and fall short of the glory of God.
The best part is that Jesus Christ is knocking at your door and is ready to forgive you and accept you into the Kingdom!
Maybe you were saved at some point in your life, but you're just going through the motions or you've left God completely. It's not too late.
The worst thing you can do is straddle the fence and continue in your sin. It's a great time to make things right with our Father in Heaven.
LET'S PRAY!
Pray this prayer to begin your journey with Jesus Christ.
Jesus,
I'm a sinner. I've been living a life for myself and I can't go on this way.
You are the Lamb of God who takes away my sin and I need you Lord.
Please forgive me of my sins. I open up my heart, my life and my soul to you Jesus.
Please come in and change my life.
I don't want to take another breath without you as my Lord and savior.
I need you Jesus.
You are Lord. You are my King.
Please fill me with your Holy Spirit and help me get my life right with you Lord.
I'm yours Lord.
In the name of Jesus Christ,
AMEN!
LET'S WALK!
Did you pray that prayer? If so, you've taken the first step into the Kingdom of God!
What now?
Focus your thoughts on Jesus Christ as often as possible daily.
I encourage you to go to the CHRISTIAN ARMORY and get some (or all) of those things going in your life, especially a Bible resource.
The more your life becomes CHRIST-CENTERED, the better you will be.
Most importantly, read the Word of God (aka your Bible) daily.
Don't know where to start? Open up the Gospel of John and read it. In fact, read it multiple times.
Our life here isn't perfect, but we need to strive to do our best, to withstand the testing and to prepare ourselves to stand before our mighty King.
We need to rely on Jesus Christ, not our own strength.
God Bless You,
