The life of a disciple of Jesus is lived in harmony with Heaven, so it’s quite natural for them to pass over into Heaven when it is their time.

……

We are not waiting till Judgment Day to find out whether our name is in the Book of Life if indeed, “The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God,” (Rom. 8:16)

……

Jesus said the majority of people are on the road to Hell.

And salvation is only through Him.

……

In Christianity, what makes a song great is the greatness of the truth it conveys.

……

Other people’s sins can affect our lives dramatically, however, those things can’t change the fact that God still “works all things together for good, for those who love the Lord and who are called according to His purpose”.

……

You can’t get anything better than to be led by the Spirit. Nothing can surpass this.

……

Hallelujah is a word which needs to be reclaimed and restored to its rightful place.

Hallelujah!!

…..

“One person esteems one day above another; another esteems every day alike. Let each be fully convinced in his own mind.” (Rom. 14:5)

I’m one who esteems every day alike.

…..

When God reveals Jesus to a person it doesn’t imply He is forcing their will.

So, in such cases, He chose to reveal Himself to that person, yet without forcing their will.

If they respond to that revelation it’s not because they are forced to respond.

It has to be our decision.

As marriage is a picture of salvation, the Bridegroom calling His Bride, then in natural marriage, the bridegroom only wants to marry the bride who wants to be married to him. He wouldn’t want to marry a bride who didnt want to be married to him.

The woman has to have a choice in the matter.

We can also say, that when an amazing gift is offered to us, it kind of makes up our mind for us.

With the marriage analogy, the bride doesn’t earn her place as a bride because the man has already chosen her, and therefore there is nothing she needs to do to get him to marry her if he has already decided and chosen her. All that is there for her to do is to accept the proposal.

So, this is a picture of our salvation.

Jesus died for all, the scrioture says, so if anyone believes on Him, and accepts Him, His promises, and all He has done, then that act of acceptance is not a “work” as in trying to be saved by good works. She can’t boast that she accepted the proposal.

If I won a million dollars in the lottery and then went down to the bank and signed for it, accepting it, I can’t boast that by accepting it I earned it or achieved it, or deserved it.

I’ve heard people say that if people have a free will to choose then that means they have earned their salvation, which is not true.

…….

The wonder of God’s absolute Sovereignty is that He can work His will without violating or taking away man’s freewill.

That’s what He does. No one can figure out how He does it, but He does it anyway. It is beyond the capacity of the human mind.

Generally, people don’t like things beyond the capacity of their mind.

…..

A funny thing about social media is people voluntarily make their own private business everyone else’s business.

…..

If a person knows who Jesus Christ really is, how could they support anything which denies who He is, such as Ecumenical prayer? That would be treason.

……

Here in India we daily hear of people known to us dying. Day after day it goes on. Today, five people known to us have died.

All this because a lab in China, funded by Obama, was purposely creating new viruses more deadly than previous ones. They say it was for research, but can China be trusted that it wasn’t part of their bio weapons program?

What blind trust Obama put in the Chinese regime? He trusted a totally barbaric, inhumane government, which has a long list of atrocities to its name.

Or, was Obama part of a nefarious plan?

Innocent until proven guilty.

……

Nothing we invest in the Kingdom is ever wasted: to the contrary, the returns are more than we can imagine.

……

False teaching is not to openly turn people away from God, but to make them feel close to God while not truly repentant in their heart of their sin and pride. So it offers a substitute for God.

……

Money preachers twist scripture to make covetousness appear as if it’s not a sin, but a virtue.

……

“But he, wanting to justify himself, said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”” (Luke 10:29)

See how this man wanted to justify his lack of love for people and still think himself righteous?

To do this he had to invent a doctrine which says, my neighbor doesn’t actually mean my neighbor.

And Jesus straightens him out.

Jesus exposes and removes the doctrinal loophole the man was trying to create in order to justify his own sin.

……

The essence of false teaching is to justify wrong action. This has been true from the very first false teaching, “you shall not die” , which satan preached to Adam and Eve.

Anyone drawn to false teaching is drawn by his own sinful nature to it.

It can simply be a matter of the false teaching bolstering ones pride or elitist superiority, or it can be a loophole to justify any kind of sin, and still feel spiritual and blessed by God.

……

What is your role in the Kingdom of Heaven?

……

“Whoever therefore breaks one of the least of these commandments, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.”

(Matthew 5:19)

So, a lot of people are going to be “the least” in the Kingdom of Heaven.

Then, the next verse qualifies whether they will be in or out.

……

Don’t be worried about anything God’s not worried about.

……

It takes time for things to grow, it takes time for people to grow, so time is a good thing.

……

“…On that day all the fountains of the great deep were broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened. And the rain was on the earth forty days and forty nights.” (Gen. 7:11b-12)

Some people question how forty days of rainfall can cover mountains?

a. It wasn’t just rain, it says subterranean water came up.

b. The pre-flood world was very different. There was no rain, but only dew, scripture says. So there obviously was a lot of water vapor held in the atmosphere, but it didn’t rain.

c. The earth was originally all ocean. Then God made dry land appear. Then, only part of the planet was land, and the rest ocean.

d. If the “fountains” under the earth were opened up, then that’s describing a global cataclysm. It “could” be that the modern scientific theory of an ancient super-continent, called Pangaea or Gondwana, is true, and before the flood there was one land mass, and, therefore, the flood was specifically concentrated on this land mass, and these cataclysmic events, as well as the changes in the earth’s crust by all the water coming out, were the catalyst which split this single land mass into the tectonic continental plates we know today. Geologists know that vast sections of the earth were once under water.

e. This would also explain how the animals came into the Ship, because it was a single land mass with no sea barriers, and perhaps not as big as we think.

…..

Jesus warned a lot about seeking popularity.

He didn’t seek popularity, and yet He is the greatest person in history.

Even in the movies His name is frequently mentioned.

…..

I don’t need to know what the future holds, but I do need to trust and obey the Lord today.

…….

The fact that you have the Holy Spirit in you doesn’t presuppose that you’re filled with the Holy Spirit.

…..

“Justification by faith alone apart from works always seems scandalous to those trying to earn Heaven.

That is until you come face to face with the cross.

There you see that redemption has been paid in full.”

• @grcastleberry

Amen.

And people can believe this and still be reprobate when they use this truth as a license for sin.

In fact, most money prophets today would totally agree with your post.

Progressives also would cheer you on. They believe exactly the same, only they redefine what sin is.

……

This generation is very confused about the difference between right and wrong.
