Why Bible lovers reject Jesus



Religious people love the Bible because they think that salvation, eternal life, is in the Bible, in doing what is written in the Bible BUT doing so according to their own interpretation. They can choose verses as it suits them, they can interpret it to their liking, the way that they see it, their opinion. They can use it to manipulate other people and they can use it to “prove” their own salvation. BUT what they do not realize is that THE BIBLE IS NOT GOD, the Bible is not Jesus Christ!
You will stand before Jesus on judgment day and before Jesus Christ we are all naked (bare), nothing is hidden before Him. He knows every thought, He knows every intention and He knows those who love Him and who fear Him. He knows those who follow Him who LISTEN TO HIS VOICE. He knows those who serve Him as Lord and Master. Jesus Christ is the WAY, the TRUTH and the LIFE, He is the NARROW WAY, He is the STRAIGHT GATE, the DOOR through which we must enter into the Kingdom of Heaven and HE IS STANDING IN YOUR WAY! The sooner you face Jesus and get to KNOW Him, DO what is pleasing to Him, the better for you because if you do not face Jesus and serve Him as Lord HE WILL TURN YOU AWAY! He will say to you on that day:”GO AWAY I never knew you.” You will not be able to justify yourself, you will not be able to quote Him Bible verses. He will just say:”I don't know you where you are from.”
Do you KNOW Jesus Christ? Do you stand before Him all the time, every day, and plead your case, and make sure that you are pleasing to Him? If you don't you will be sorely disappointed. Get to KNOW Jesus. Follow Him, stay with Him or He will turn you away.

May Jesus bless you.

Follow JESUS Not the Bible



Following the Bible will not save you. It is only FOLLOWING and OBEYING Jesus Christ, that will save you. It is easy to follow the Bible because there is a version and a translation for every taste but that does not lead you to Jesus Christ. It is easy to follow the Bible because you can pick verses that suit you and you can interpret them in the way that suits you also, it is tailor made for you (the version of your choice). You can also CLOSE the Bible when it pleases you. You can apply whatever you wish in the Bible according to your preference and justify yourself.
You can even use it to manipulate people. You can even build a church and gather a congregation around your “interpretation” of the Bible but none of you will know Jesus.
The Bible cannot save you. Knowing the Bible, studying the Bible cannot save you. It is FOLLOWING Jesus Christ, KNOWING the LIVING God, being led by His Holy Spirit that will save you IF you OBEY Jesus Christ. Many read the Bible and they know about Jesus but they don't know Jesus. Jesus will say to many Bible believers:”Go away I never knew you, you workers of wickedness.”
Do you follow the Bible or do you know Jesus Christ? Do you follow Jesus every day? Are you living to please Jesus Christ? Are you asking Him for HIS GUIDANCE, HIS APPROVAL and are you living according to HIS DIRECTION, what He tells you in your spirit?
Are you following Jesus or do you believe that your Bible can save you?

May Jesus bless you.

Knowledge AND Understanding


Many people have KNOWLEDGE. They have knowledge about Jesus, about God, about the Bible but THEY LACK UNDERSTANDING. They want others to explain to them, to interpret for them what they are reading. The reason why they lack understanding is because they do not know Jesus Christ.
If we KNOW Jesus then He GIVES us UNDERSTANDING. We don't need anything but Jesus Christ. He guides His sheep and He teaches them, He gives them insight and understanding, He shares His secret counsel with them. They are not in darkness because they WALK IN THE LIGHT, they follow Him.
Many seek knowledge and they seek understanding but they stay in darkness because they refuse to follow Jesus Christ, they refuse to bend their knees and go to Him and just say:”Lord, please show me. Please give me wisdom, please give me understanding.” Jesus is WAITING for you and me. Those who follow Jesus are never in darkness because He guides them and He shares His secrets with them, they have UNDERSTANDING, they have THE MIND OF CHRIST.
Do you have knowledge without understanding? Then go to Jesus and He will give you understanding. Stay WITH HIM and He will guide you all the way until the very end.

May Jesus bless you.

Educated into IGNORANCE

Knowledge makes puffed up. The more people study, the more ignorant and arrogant they become because they think that they know everything. That also goes for Bible students, they think that they know more than anybody else they even think that they know more than God but they do not know God.
You can only KNOW God through a relationship with Jesus Christ. You cannot know what will happen next from interpreting the prophecies, you can only know what will happen next IF you walk with Jesus and He reveals Himself to you. Jesus shares His secret counsel with those who live close to Him, who love Him, who follow Him and who DO His will.
Do YOU know Jesus Christ intimately? Do you LISTEN to His voice and follow Him or do you think that you know more that Jesus Christ because you know your Bible?
If we need wisdom we must ask of God who gives to all men freely. Jesus sent the Holy Spirit to guide us into all truth. Those who ignore the Holy Spirit and refuse to LISTEN and be guided by Him will remain in darkness because they are ignorant.

May Jesus bless you

Write your own Bible

You can write your own version of the Bible according to your own interpretation and you can attach to it doctrines according to your own liking. That is what many churches and denominations do, they print their own Bible according to their own liking. You can make up in your mind a Jesus Christ to your own liking as well but when you die you will stand before Jesus Christ and you will be judged by the words that He spoke AS THEY WERE RECORDED IN THE GOSPELS Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. The WORDS OF JESUS AS HE SPOKE THEM WILL JUDGE US IN THE LAST DAY. If we have changed them or disregarded them then we will not enter into His kingdom. He will say to us:”Go away I never knew you.” You can change the Bible to your liking, you can have your own doctrines but if you do not know Jesus Christ and He does not know you, you will PERISH. The Bible cannot save you. Jesus Christ gives eternal life to those who KNOW Him, who LISTEN to Him, who OBEY Him. He will give His Holy Spirit in you and His Holy Spirit will remind you of the WORDS THAT HE SPOKE. Obey those words, OBEY His Spirit and you will live, disobey Him and you will perish. May Jesus bless you.

Correct Interpretation of the Bible


Churches differentiate themselves from each other by the way that they interpret the one and very self same Bible. Many churches and teachers have their own Bibles with their own side notes, their own flavor that they add to the words written in scripture.
There is only ONE God and one Savior, Jesus Christ. There is only ONE GOSPEL THAT CAN SAVE and that is THE WORDS OF JESUS as reported by four different people in the four gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. Those words are clear and simple, they need no interpretation. They need to be obeyed IF YOU WANT ETERNAL LIFE.
Jesus sent His Holy Spirit, His very own Spirit to live in those who accept Him and His Spirit, the Holy Spirit will remind us of the words of Jesus. There is no interpretation of deviation required. Those words of Jesus as recorded in the gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, will judge the world. It does not matter how you interpret it or how you try to twist it to fit your brand of religion, those words AS IS, will judge you. Those words, the words that Jesus spoke, will judge us. If we obey them, we will live. If we reject them, we will perish.
The truth needs no interpretation. It is plain and simple. Accept it and live or reject it and perish.
May Jesus bless you.
