Have you ever felt like something was missing in your life? Have you felt fear, but didn’t know why? Are you successful yet you feel empty inside? I was once like you, craving a desire that was never filled, searching but never finding. I would try to fill the void in my heart with things, pleasures, food, drugs, alcohol, success and friendships, which only lead me to more frustration. My searching ended when I found Jesus Christ. Many of us know Jesus Christ, the Messiah, the only begotten Son of God and that He died for the sin of the world. But do we know Him and have a personnel relationship with Lord Jesus Christ. Lord God is the Divine Creator of Heaven Earth. In the beginning, Lord God formed Adam from the dust of the earth and breathed into Adam’s nostrils the breathe of life; and Adam became a living soul. The Lord God placed Adam in the Garden of Eden. And out of the ground Lord God made to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; and the Lord God commanded the man saying of every tree of the garden you may freely eat; but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, you shall not eat of it: for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die. Eve ate of the tree of knowledge of good and evil and gave some to Adam to eat. When they were first created they knew only good, but once they ate the fruit, they knew both good and evil. Their disobedience to God caused Adam and all of mankind to live in a cursed world, under the lordship of Satan. This original sin of mankind, changed man’s heart to be rebellious towards God, but God didn’t give up on mankind. Because God is a merciful and gracious God, He has made a way for you to eat from the tree of life and live forever. God sent Lord Jesus Christ into the world to save mankind and bring mankind back into fellowship with God. God loves you and desires to fellowship with you and to forgive all of your sins. If you are partaking of the “good fruit” of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, you are still eating from Satan’s tree. You may be good and do good, hoping that your “good” will out weigh your “bad” and God will have mercy on you and allow you into His heaven. Even being good and belonging to a church will not save you from hell. God has one plan of salvation and that is faith in His Son, Jesus Christ. God said that the wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus. For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. God sent His Son into the world, not to condemn the world, but that the world through Him – Jesus- might be saved.
Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me, (Jesus). Jesus Christ died fro the sins of the world, and made peace with God be shedding Hid blood for all sins. By faith in Jesus Christ, we are eating from the tree of life and have eternal life. We are not our own gods, free to do what we want. We are no longer operating in the knowledge of good and evil. We are loving and obeying God and living in Christ Jesus, partaking of His flesh. We are not free to sin, but to live holy lives dedicated to Lord God through Jesus Christ. God has given us eternal life; and that life is in His Son, Jesus Christ. He that has the Son has life. Almighty God, the Father, gave each one of us a free will so that we could choose to serve Him or Satan. Hell has created for Satan and not for man, but each day Satan deceives God’s creation into following him into the depths of the earth – Hell. Don’t let Satan deceive you; call upon the mercy of God today. Heaven is a real and beautiful place with an overflowing atmosphere of love, peace, joy, and hope. Hell is a real and terrible place with an overflowing atmosphere of despair, pain, hopelessness, fear, and torture. God sent Jesus to the world to save people, who were already lost because of Adams’ sin. By the Spirit of God: “I loved man and wanted him to fellowship with me and enjoy the fruits of the earth. I was grieved after man sinned, but could not turn my face from my creation. I chose a people, trained a nation, yet sin was among them. Though I desired to bring men closer to me, the sin and pride was repelling Me away from man. My firstborn Son, Jesus Christ, went into the earth to proclaim salvation through Him. My everlasting covenant was established with Him. I greet my children with such great joy once they accepted my Son, Jesus. I sent part of my very self to them to direct and guide them. I have done my part. Oh my children why do you not listen to the cries of your hearts and obey my commands? Is it too hard to love one another? Can you love each as I love you? Ask me, ask Jesus to help guide you. He is faithful. If you could be good by your own merits the crucifixion of Jesus was unnecessary, welcome Jesus into your hearts. Ask Him to help you to be pleasing to the Father. For this is His job to bring salvation and bring you closer to me (God). I need a people who can stand up for what is right and good to defend against the attack of evil, a holy people chosen by God.” Lord God Almighty wishes for all people to come to faith in Jesus Christ and turn from their sins and accept Jesus Christ as their Lord. Jesus said to his disciples, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me. For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for Jesus’ sake will find it. For what profit is it for a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul? Lord God Almighty loves you and wants to forgive your sins. Accept Jesus Christ into your heart, confess with your mouth Jesus Christ is Lord, and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead and you will be saved. Do not die before accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior; once you die it will be too late.
Are you willing to regret your past sins and stop sinning? Welcome Jesus into your life and start a new life, one of love and devotion to God, the Father. Jesus said, “Most solemnly I tell you, that unless a person is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God” Ask Jesus to be your Lord or supreme authority of your life by saying the following prayer from your heart: “Heavenly Father, I know that I have sinned and need your forgiveness. I believe Jesus died for my sins. I want to stop sinning, but I need help. I ask Jesus to be the Lord over my life. I believe in my heart, so I say it with my mouth: Jesus is the son of the Most High God and has been raised from the dead by the power of Almighty God. Jesus come into my life. I want to trust and follow you, Jesus be my lord and savior. I am a Christian. I am a child of Almighty God. This is only the first step in a long journey that will last forever. God said, “I will never leave you or forsake you.” Jesus Christ is now your Savior. Satan will try to make you give up on your new life and go back into the world and forget about God. Satan might try to stop your progress in Christ. Trust Jesus, sty close to Him, truly abiding in Him. Jesus came to give you abundant life full of love and joy, while Satan will try to harm you and blame it on God. Satan will try to drive you away from Jesus, but don’t be separated from Jesus. Satan will do everything in his power to deceive, disappoint, discourage, and disillusion you into giving up on your new birth and life in Jesus. But don’t give up on your salvation, never let the devil win in your life. You are too precious to God to be lost again. The devil can’t hurt God, so he hurts God’s children and blames it on God. It is easier to kill a baby Christian before they become a might warrior in Christ Jesus.
The fear of hell convinced me to accept Jesus into my life, but it was the love of God that allows me to serve and obey Him. Your relationship with God the Father and the Lord Jesus will enable you to obey both the written word, Bible, and the spoken word of God. This will give you His victory in your life. How to grow in the Lord is the next teaching.
Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely; and may your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
