The Shepherd's View
FULLY PERSUADED!
Are you really sure of your eternal SALVATION ? This is a very important question and one that will have lasting eternal consequences. If you were to die today do you know for certain that you would go to heaven. Romans 14:10 says that “For we shall ALL stand before the judgement seat of Christ”.
Hebrews 9:27 says “And it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgement. Life is uncertain but eternity is for a certain”. The shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary in Connecticut shows us the uncertainty and brevity of life. “James 4:14 says “Whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even as a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away”.
Many assumptions men make about salvation contradicts what God says in His WORD. There are many doctrine and religions being taught, but compare them to what the BiBLE says and we can see the difference. There are hundreds of denominational churches and hundreds of religions and many are confused and don’t know what they believe! Mark 7:7 says “And in vain they worship ME, teaching as doctrine the commandments of men. Can we really say that all these many doctrines come from God well the bible tells us in “ICorinthians 14:13 that GOD is not the author of confusion. The confusion comes from men, not God.”
The Apostle Peter said in Acts 5:29 that ” We ought to obey God rather than men.” The word of God says in John 12:48 that “The word that I have spoken will judge him in the last day.” So if it’s not in God’s word, please, don’t believe it, your very soul is at stake, for Matthew 16:26 tells us this: “For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world and loses his own soul?”. Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul? Eternity is forever. Don’t loose your soul! Natural death is separation of the soul from the natural body which is temporary, but eternal death is separation from all mighty God forever. The stakes are too high. Come to Jesus just as you are and he will save you.
All mighty God has already made provision for the forgiveness of our sin by a Jesus suffering and death on the CROSS and we will not have to be lost in the eternal punishment of torment along with Satan (the devil).
Romans 10:9 says “That if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be SAVED!
I Peter 3:15 teaches us ” But sanctify The Lord in your hearts and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the HOPE that is in you, with MEEKNESS and FEAR”.
And finally Acts 4:12, “Neither is there salvation in any other: For there is none other name under heaven given among men whereby we must be SAVED”!
Jesus is the answer for the world yesterday, today and forever!
“JESUS”…..The sweetest name I know!
