OK today Im going to skip the Genesis study - just for today :) I think its very important to study the bible so you will know for yourself first hand - THE TRUTH. I say just for today, but if it ends up being a lot then it may be for a couple of days.
Last night I watched Lost & it was showing Richards past. He has accidentally killed a man and went to prison for it. He was in his cell reading the Bible when a priest walked in. Richard asked the Priest to pray for his forgiveness for him???? If he was really reading the Bible then he should know we don't need a priest or Mary to pray for our sins. Ok ok - so the priest tells him that he can do nothing to earn forgiveness for his sins & went on to tell him that the Devil was waiting in hell for him!! WOW - what at contradiction to the truth about Gods forgiveness! This just makes me angry because so many people actually believe these types of things when they hear them. This was national television telling a straight out LIE !
The truth is the God loves us so much that he took a part of himself and manifested into a man (JESUS) He grew up on this earth to teach us the truth. He then took all of our sins apon himself and died for us. You see by him giving his life and making the final most important blood sacrifice. He is able to forgive us for our sins (PAST, PRESENT & FUTURE) The rules changed when Christ died on the cross. You no longer have to make blood sacrifices for forgiveness.
You simply have to realize that you are a sinner. You have to repent of your sins. (Does this mean you can't sin again ? No!) We will always sin and fall short of Gods perfect glory, but we have to get off our high horse and admit that we are sinners. We have to accept him as our Lord & Savior and let him lead our lives. Does this mean we have to all be preachers & teachers? No. But it does mean we all need to trust in him and his promises. If we accept him he will love us unconditionally and have a place for us in Heaven.
I Don't care what kind of life you live. I don't care what you have done. You can be part of Gods family.
All Richard had to do was ask God to forgive him of his sins and ask god to come into his heart & put his trust in God and he would have been saved. What Richard did was listen to another man & believed that God would not forgive him.
Don't be a Richard - Don't take what others say as the truth just because they seem to be an authority figure. Read the Bible for your self and get the GOOD TRUTH. God loves us and we can be saved just by asking.
You can't work your way into Heaven - So if you are a Jehovah Witness or other organization that thinks you can work your way then you are listening to the wrong one. You need to Read the HOLY BIBLE - It is a complete work and if you read Revelation you will see that it is wrong to take away or add to this book.
Revelation 22:18-19 “For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: 19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.”
So don't listen to any church or organization that teaches or preaches from an added Bible. If your church doesn't specifically teach from the Holy Bible and only the Holy Bible then you are more than likely in a Occult.
Im not trying to say anything bad about anybody, but if you are being taught anything different than - You get saved by asking Jesus into your heart - then you are being taught wrong. Nobody can work there way into heaven - Its not about work, but it is about LOVE !! Love God first then one another :)
God made it simple for us to be Saved and go to Heaven. Its not hard - He did this so we could all be saved and we simply have to accept him.
John 3:16
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
