What you believe doesn't have to be right or wrong to control your life.
You are responsible for what you believe.
Man will believe anything if it sounds convincing.
If you don't define your belief, you will be living an unstable life.
When I believe something, it means I'm absolutely convinced about it and nobody can change my mind about it
What you believe is a choice,but that choice controls your life.
You believe something right now. But what you believe,is it True?
Nobody will be held responsible for what you have chosen to believe.
God will not hold anybody for what you have chosen,and a result he made TRUTH available!
John 17:17 SAYS:
Sanctify them in the truth[set them apart for Your purposes, make them holy]; Your word is truth.
Where is truth found? It is found in the Word. So get your believing from the Word.
DO YOU UNDERSTAND YOUR BELIEF ABOUT THE LAW OF MOSES?
Galatians 2:16 says:
16We Jews know that we have no advantage of birth over "non-Jewish sinners." We know very well that we are not set right with God by rule-keeping but only through personal faith in Jesus Christ. How do we know? We tried it—and we had the best system of rules the world has ever seen! Convinced that no human being can please God by self-improvement, we believed in Jesus as the Messiah so that we might be set right before God by trusting in the Messiah, not by trying to be good.
You will never be saved or accepted by the law, in fact all who are under the law are under the curse.
Galatians 3:10
For all who depend on the Law [seeking justification and salvation by obedience to the Law and the observance of rituals] are under a curse; for it is written, “Cursed(condemned to destruction) is everyone who does not abide by all things written in the book of the law, so as to practice them.”
You will never be able to FUFIL God's plan for your life without knowledge of your Bible!
If you can point to anything else as a qualification to be right with God without believe in Christ Jesus, you are already in the wrong.
Nobody deserves to go to hell, not even the worst of the bunch because Jesus tasted hell for every man,that they may not taste it!
Do you know that you are God's only physical contact to your world?
Do you know you are always in the presence of God? You are born in God's presence and you are never supposed to leave?
Hebrews 12:22-24 says:
But you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to myriads of angels [in festive gathering], 23 and to the general assembly and assembly of the firstborn who are registered [as citizens] in heaven, and to God, who is Judge of all, and to the spirits of the righteous (the redeemed in heaven) who have been made perfect [bringing them to their final glory], 24 and to Jesus, the Mediator of a new covenant [uniting God and man], and to the sprinkled blood, which speaks [of mercy], a better and nobler andmore gracious message than the blood of Abel [which cried out for vengeance].
Ephesians 2:8-9 reads
For it is by grace [God’s remarkable compassion and favor drawing you to Christ] that you have been saved [actually delivered from judgment and given eternal life] through faith. And this [salvation] is not of yourselves [not through your own effort], but it is the [undeserved, gracious] gift of God; 9 not as a result of [your] works [nor your attempts to keep the Law], so that no one will [be able to] boast or take credit in any way [for his salvation].
- God gave the law so that man will discover that he has a short coming and will then desire a saviour.The law came to reveal to men their sins.
This is the reason why every where the law is preached, the Christians are weak, because they are overwhelmed by their short comings.
- As a Christian,you are a presenter, present God's gift to the world.
Ephesians 2:8 says:
God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God
Vices and wrong doing and wrong desires are in your soul, with the word of God your soul is cleansed because the word of God is a cleanser.
Roman's 4:4-7 says
Salvation is a gift, and what is a gift?
When people work, their wages are not a gift, but something they have earned. 5 But people are counted as righteous, not because of their work, but because of their faith in God who forgives sinners
David also spoke of this when he described the happiness of those who are declared righteous without working for it:
7 “Oh, what joy for those
whose disobedience is forgiven,
whose sins are put out of sight.
8 Yes, what joy for those
whose record the Lord has cleared of sin.”
