Wakey Wakey!

The vast majority of Christian believers are fast asleep. Many of them believe that they have salvation security but MOST of them have no relationship with Jesus Christ whatsoever. Many know the Bible, others just belong to churches and they go fellowship with church people. Many have said a sinners prayer and now they believe that they have salvation and they are saved but they have no relationship with Jesus! They are living in sin and in unrighteousness but they believe that when they die they will go to heaven. They will perish!
It is only those who walk closely with Jesus, who LISTEN to HIS VOICE and who FOLLOW Him, who OBEY Him, who live in holiness and righteousness, it is only they who will have salvation. Jesus said:”My sheep LISTEN to MY VOICE and they FOLLOW ME.” Who do you LISTEN to and who do you follow? Do you follow Jesus Christ or your own mind, your own ambitions? Do you do what YOU like, what YOU feel like and what YOU please? Or do you listen to OTHER PEOPLE? Who are you following? Are you following Jesus Christ?
It is only those who deny themselves, pick up their cross and follow Jesus EVERY DAY, it is only they who will have eternal life. It is time to WAKE UP and follow Jesus.

May Jesus bless you.

To confess or not to confess

It is important to confess our sins if we have sinned and to ask forgiveness, from God and also from the person whom we have sinned against. It is also important that we forgive others because if we do not forgive those who have sinned against us then we will not have forgiveness for our sins; because as Jesus taught us to pray, He said:”forgive us our transgressions as we have forgiven those who have transgressed against us.”

We must also ask forgiveness from those against whom we have sinned. But sometimes the other person does not even know that you have sinned against him and it is better not to confess to that person that you have sinned against him unless he knows about it. Especially in the case of adultery where one spouse has cheated on the other, if that person then confesses to his spouse or to her spouse that they have been unfaithful then it can destroy their marriage. As Jesus also said to the woman who was caught in adultery, He said:”Where are your prosecutors?” She said:”They have left.” and He said:”I do not condemn you ether, go and SIN NO MORE.”

There are some “purists” that will maintain that a person who has been unfaithful must confess to their partner that they have been unfaithful. Many people have been unfaithful without even realizing it. Many believers will tell you that they have never committed adultery, they have never cheated on a spouse but in their mind they have. In their mind they have lusted after another person and Jesus said:”If you look at a woman to lust after her then you have already committed adultery in your heart.” Then you are already guilty of adultery. So before we judge other people let us rather make sure that WE are pleasing to Jesus. Let us confess our sins to Jesus and live in utter holiness and purity because no sinners will enter the kingdom of heaven.

May Jesus bless you.

How is your most vital relationship?

Salvation is a relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ, the King of kings and the Lord of lords. He will accept us as His bride if WE COMPLY WITH HIS REQUIREMENTS. If we accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and Master, REPENT of sin, cleans ourselves of all unrighteousness, show fruit of repentance, are baptized in water then He will give us the baptism in the Holy Spirit as an engagement ring, as a token from Him of His acceptance. It is only if we ENDURE UNTIL THE END OF OUR LIVES and we remain FAITHFUL to Him, DOING what is pleasing to Him that we will have the eventual prize, our unification with Him, ETERNAL LIFE. But if we are unfaithful to Him and if we go back to sin, if we love the things of the world and we cheat on Jesus, we will GET CUT OFF, He will reject us because then we are not suitable as a bride for Christ. He is coming for a pure and clean bride. He will not accept a fornicating unfaithful bride. That is the relationship that you enter into, you attach yourself to Jesus Christ. He is faithful, He will not cheat on you but if we deny Him and we cheat on Him, He says He will certainly DENY US. You can believe that you are saved but if you do not have that confirmation of the Holy Spirit and constantly have that confirmation where He confirms to you that He is pleased with you then you are in danger of eternal hell. Jesus requires of us to be in that close relationship with Him where we are led by His Spirit all the time; where He guides us, teaches us, coaches us and prepares us to be a suitable bride. Are you in that close relationship with Jesus where you hear His voice, listen to Him, seek His approval all the time and where you keep yourself from sin, where you keep yourself holy and totally dedicated unto Him? Are you in that relationship? Are you that close to Jesus. If not, then you do not have hope of salvation. May Jesus bless you.

Faithfulness

Jesus requires of us that we be faithful to Him, that we deny ourselves, pick up our cross and follow Him every day. Our mind must always be on Jesus, seeking to please Him. Very few people are faithful to their spouses. Some do not physically cheat on their spouse but in their mind they are fornicating, they are adulterating, they are desiring another person. They are adulterers, fornicators. Jesus said that if you look at a woman to desire her, you have already committed adultery in your heart. If we allow our mind to wonder away from Jesus and we desire the world and the things of the world then we are not faithful to Him and He regards us as adulterers. Are we faithful to Jesus? Is our mind always on the Lord? Are we always occupying ourselves with Jesus? Do we deny ourselves, pick up our cross and follow Him? Are we faithful to Jesus? May Jesus bless you.

Lustful eyes - adulterers on their way to hell

In the sight of God you are an adulterer on your way to hell, if you look at a woman lustfully.  I read the Words of Jesus as written in Matthew 5:28 “but I say to you that everyone who looks on a woman to lust for her has committed adultery with her already in his heart. And if your right eye makes you stumble, tear it out and throw it from you; for it is better for you that one of the parts of your body perish, than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.” Dear friend, do you watch pornography, do you switch on the television and watch all those lustful figures, dancing with the stars and naked celebrities? Do you go into the shops and look at all those magazines with naked women? Do you allow your eyes onto women that dress like whores? You are an adulterer in the sight of God my friend. We must reserve our eyes for Jesus.  If your eye makes you stumble pluck it out dear friend.  Those are the Words of Jesus.  It is not easy to go into the Kingdom of Heaven.  If we want to go in there, we must reserve our bodies as a Temple of the Holy Spirit and not allow ourselves any sin.  We must be holy, without holiness no man shall see God.
May Jesus bless you.
