You are predetermined or predestined to become a Christian in order to be saved…

 

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places (the current spiritual heaven and the new heaven) in Christ: even as He (God) chose us in Him before the foundation of the world (predetermined by the time period we (you and I) were born in…after the cross or the death burial and resurrection of Jesus from the dead or before the cross), that we should be holy and without blemish before him in love: having foreordained (predetermined those of us after the cross) us unto adoption as sons through Jesus Christ unto Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will, to the praise of the glory of His grace, which He freely bestowed on us in the Beloved: in whom we have our redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace (un-earned favor)…and you, being in time past alienated and enemies in your mind in your evil works, yet now hath He reconciled in the body of His flesh through death, to present you holy and without blemish and unreproveable before Him: if so be that you continue in the faith, grounded and steadfast, and not moved away from the hope of the gospel which you (all) heard, which was preached in all creation under heaven… Wherefore also we make it our aim, whether at home or absent, to be well-pleasing unto Him. For we must all be made manifest before the judgment-seat of Christ; that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he hath done, whether it be good or bad. (we were born after the cross of Jesus meaning after He died and was raised from the dead…therefore if you want to be saved from the sins of the past you must become a Christian…there is no other way to be saved from the evil deeds you and I have done…ben) (Eph 1:3-7 ASV Col 1:21-23 ASV 2Co 5:9-10 ASV)

 

We are all just children in dirty diapers before Jesus the God of gods…


(Jesus)…said, Verily I say unto you, Except you turn (forsake evil), and become as little children, you shall in no wise (no wise way) enter into the kingdom of heaven. Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receives Me: but whoso shall cause one of these little ones that believe on Me to stumble, (tempt no believer in Christ) it is profitable for him that a great millstone should be hanged about his neck, and that he should be sunk in the depth of the sea. (better off dead than to cause a Christian to error)… Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except one be born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God… (this is how you become a child of God being born of the water (baptism and then receive the promise of the Holy Spirit)… Now when they (the ones which had a part in Jesus death or knew Jesus was already raised and ascended into heaven) heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and the rest of the apostles, Brethren, what shall we do? (to be saved He is no longer here)…And Peter said unto them, Repent you (forsake everything created and surrender to Jesus Christ’s will only), and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ unto the remission of your sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. For to you is the promise, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call unto Him. For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you (all) forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses. (some people you have to forgive because they exist like satan) (Mat 18:3-6 ASV Joh 3:5 ASV Act 2:37-39 ASV Mat 6:14-15 ASV)

 

Do you have the witness of the blood (forgiveness from Jesus) water (baptized into Christ Gal 3:27) and the Spirit (faithfully given at baptism as a promise unless rejected)?

 

For God so loved the world, that He gave his only begotten Son (the only Human who was Fathered by God so no man could say he was greater), that whosoever believes on Him should (not will not but should obey the teachings of Jesus) not perish, but have eternal life. For God sent not the Son into the world to judge the world; but that the world should be saved through Him… This is He that came by water (Jesus baptism) and blood (shed His blood on the cross), even Jesus Christ; not with the water only, but with the water and with the blood. And it is the Spirit that bears witness, because the Spirit is the truth. For there are three who bear witness, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and the three agree in one… He that believes and is baptized shall be saved; but he that disbelieves (acts as if Jesus did not exist or died for them)  shall be condemned (into the lake of fire). And these signs shall accompany them that believe: in my name shall they cast out demons; they shall speak with new tongues; they shall take up serpents, and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall in no wise hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. So then the Lord Jesus, after He had spoken unto them, was received up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God. And they went forth, and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word by the signs that followed. Amen. (do you need confirmation that Jesus died and rose from the dead? Yes or no?) Mar 16:16-20 ASV Joh 3:16-17 ASV 1Jn 5:6-8 ASV

 

Prayer…

Father please keep us faithful and confirm this truth to us so we can know the truth and be set free from all the false witnesses which pretend to be the Way of Salvation…please provide for all our needs spiritual, physical, and emotional in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.

Have you ever made a commitment to Jesus before? I have and I am glad I did, becoming a Christian is the best thing I ever done. Being a Christian makes me have a purpose to become like my Creator, the Father of all things. Did you know Jesus will never ask you to do a wrong thing and will show you how to do right by God and your fellow man? It is written, Mat 5:6, blessed are they who hunger and thirst for righteousness for they will be filled.


Do you want to be right with God? and your neighbors? and your family? and everyone else?

Yes or No?


Will you work a plan of reconcilliation with God and your fellow man? Will you work a plan of redemption and salvation for yourself and others?

Would this hunger and thirst for being right give you a plan and purpose and when your done you could shake everyone's hand and look them in the eye. Jesus said I am the way the truth and the life, in John 14:6. Jesus said in John 8:31-32, if you continue in my word then you are my disciples indeed and you will know the truth and the truth will set you free. Jesus said, if you love me then keep my commandments John 14:15.

The inpsired record as it is written, 2Jn 1:9 KJV Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.


Heb 5:8-9 KJV Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered; (9) And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him;



Are you fulfilling a plan and a purpose? Jesus of Nazareth can give you a righteous plan and purpose. Jesus will never ask you to do a wrong thing and Jesus died and was raised on the third day, so all your wrongs can be forgiven. Jesus died so you would never have to do a wrong thing again. Do you hunger and thirst after being righteous? Then call on Him?


Act 22:7-8 KJV And I fell unto the ground, and heard a voice saying unto me, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? (8) And I answered, Who art thou, Lord? And he said unto me, I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom thou persecutest.



Father, please help us to be wise unto salvation for ourselves and others, please meet our souls' deepest needs, and forgive us our sins, we forgive those who done us wrong and ask you would heal our souls' deepest wounds and cover us in grace, mercy, peace, joy, and love in Jesus of Nazareth's name amen.
