YOU must make up YOUR mind to STOP SINNING

To follow Jesus Christ, is a decision that YOU need to make. Jesus gives eternal life to those who accept Him as Lord and who serve Him and who obey Him, but He never begged anybody to follow Him. You must count the cost before you decide to follow Jesus. Jesus said:”If any man wishes to come after Me. Let Him deny Himself, pick up his cross every day and come here, follow Me.” Jesus was very clear about the requirements of discipleship – they are all written in the gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, but it is YOUR DECISION, dear friend, whether you will, accept Jesus as Lord, whether you will obey Him. IT'S ENTIRELY UP TO YOU, WHETHER YOU WILL STOP SINNING, whether you will follow Jesus and serve Him as Lord. The only way that you can have eternal life is IF you accept Jesus as your Lord.
You turn away from doing what you want to do and you obey Him, until the very end. YOU need to decide to STOP SINNING. Nobody forces you to sin, nobody, it is your decision. Nobody forces you to follow Jesus, that is your decision, and you can stop following Him at any time. He will never leave you but if you turn your back on Him then YOU are the one who deserted Him. They asked Jesus whether those who are being saved are few and He said to them:”Strive HARD to enter the narrow gate because MANY, I tell you. Will try and not be able.” It's not an easy road, dear friend, you must decide to follow Jesus. It must be a firm decision and you must do it every day. You must seek to be PLEASING TO HIM ALL THE TIME. You must seek to HEAR HIS VOICE. You must OBEY His words, if you want to please Him, if you want to go into heaven. If you don't, decision is yours, but the rules are written in the gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. If you want to go into heaven, you must OBEY those rules. Jesus said, as John wrote in John 12:47 “the words that I spoke will judge you in the last day.” Those are the rules, dear friends. If we want to go into heaven we must COMPLY WITH THE WORDS OF JESUS and there will be NO EXCEPTION. If we decide to follow Jesus and we fall on our knees and we cry out to Him and say;”Lord I want You!” then Him and His Father will come and live with us and He will reveal Himself to me, IF I obey Him, if I truly seek Him, if I DO what He told me to do. But if I am not interested in Him, I will not enter heaven.
If you don't LOVE Jesus, you will not follow Him and you WILL NOT HAVE SALVATION and He will say to many believers, he will say:”Go away I never knew you” because they never loved Him, they never truly obeyed Him, they never followed Him. His sheep LISTEN to His voice. He reveals Himself to them, speaks to you, in your heart, in your spirit. If you obey Him He gives you His Holy Spirit to be with you, to guide you every moment, but you need to follow, you need to listen. If you turn away, then YOU have turned your back on Him and on salvation.
We must endure until the very end if we want to be saved. Don't let anybody tell you anything different dear friend. Go and read the words of Jesus in the gospels and see whether I am speaking the truth, because I am telling you the truth. Go on your knees and pray and ask Jesus whether what I said is the truth and He will confirm it to you. Dear friend, you have got to make up your mind and YOU must stop sinning and follow Jesus. YOU need to decide, nobody else.
May Jesus bless you.
