Salvation is NOT a commodity - Does Jesus know YOU?

Salvation is not a commodity like it is presented by so many churches and individuals, who themselves, do not have salvation. They present salvation as a package, certain steps that you go through, you say the sinners prayer and then you do certain things and now you are “saved” - now you have salvation, you are going to heaven. THAT IS A LIE, FRIENDS!

Salvation is knowing Jesus Christ. It is a relationship, like a relationship between a man and a woman. The woman first gets to know the man and then she makes a commitment to that man. There is an engagement and then hopefully IF THE RELATIONSHIP LASTS, there will be a wedding. When we accept Jesus Christ as Lord, as Master, then we COMMIT TO HIM that we will follow Him and be faithful to Him and then we accept Him as our LORD and MASTER. We do everything to please Him. We withhold ourselves from all other, we do not live to please ourselves any more, we live to please Him. We seek His approval in everything. It is not just about sin, REPENTANCE is turning away from the things of the world, turning away from the lusts of the flesh and DOING that which is pleasing to Jesus. You OBEY Him, you are baptized in water. He said:”He who believes and is baptized will be saved.” If you don't go through those steps of obedience, you are not interested in pleasing Jesus. And then, if you have shown your commitment, by obeying Him, He gives you the baptism in the Holy Spirit, with speaking in tongues, which is the ENGAGEMENT RING, He gives you a TOKEN that He has accepted you. But then you HAVE GOT TO ENDURE, dear friend, the marriage has not taken place yet! You don't have eternal life yet! You have the HOPE OF ETERNAL LIFE, IF YOU ENDURE with that relationship until the very, very end, until you die. Then you have the hope of eternal life.

When you die, then either, Jesus will welcome you in or He will say to you:”I do not know you.” friend. It's not a commodity, friend, it's a relationship, by His Spirit. If you don't know Jesus and if you do not seek to be pleasing to Him every day, YOU DON'T HAVE SALVATION. He gives you the Holy Spirit, the token, He communicates to you through the Holy Spirit. If you don't have that communication, you have no relationship! You can read the Bible, you can go to church but if you don't have a relationship with Jesus, that is REAL, YOU DON'T KNOW HIM! And He will say to you:”Go away I never knew you.”

Dear friend, is Jesus real to you? Did you REPENT, did you commit to Jesus, to follow Him? Were you baptized in water, as a sign to the world and to everybody:”I am taken! I belong to Jesus!” Did He give you the baptism in the Holy Spirit as a sign, as a token? Does He communicate to you through the Holy Spirit? Do you hear His voice? Do you LISTEN to Him? Do you follow Him every day? Are you seeking to be pleasing to Him? Are you maintaining the HOPE of final salvation, of ETERNAL LIFE when you die?

Or have you bought a package? Dear friend, that PACKAGE IS EMPTY! THERE IS NOTHING INSIDE! You have been fooled! You need to know Jesus, friend, for real, you need to know His voice, you need to have a real relationship with Jesus, every day. You must get to know Him better all the time. He will guide you by His Spirit, He will teach you and coach you, and IF you ENDURE, until the very end, then there will be a marriage, then you will have eternal life. Most people don't get there. They only bought a package! Did you buy a package? Or do you know the Savior? Are you living in a real relationship with the Savior every day and are you maintaining the HOPE OF THE WEDDING FEAST?

May Jesus bless you.
