STOP Being a SINNER



The wages of sin is death. The soul
that sins will die, it will perish in damnation, in hell. The
unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God. To sin is a
decision. We sin because we choose to sin. To stop sinning is also a
decision.
If we keep on sinning and if we keep on
following after our own desires we will perish, we will end up in
hell. The only way to have salvation is to obey Jesus Christ, to
stop sinning, to sin no more, to be righteous and holy, to be
baptized in water and to live according to the words of Jesus, in
obedience to Him but if we keep on sinning we will perish.
We have to decide to stop sinning. Many
Christian believers confess to be sinners and they say we are all
sinners. We are not all sinners. Maybe those believers are sinners
but those who follow Jesus Christ are not sinners. They have decided
to turn away from sin, to obey Jesus, to live according to His words
and they make that decision each and every day, a hundred times. They
have to choose, either to do what is right, or to sin, to do what
they know Jesus requires of them or to follow after their own
desires. We have to choose. We have to choose to follow Jesus, to
obey Him, if we want eternal life, but if we follow after our own
desires and if we keep on sinning we will perish.
We ourselves must make that decision to
stop sinning. We must make that decision every day to deny ourselves,
in other words, not do what I want to do but to pick up my cross and
follow Jesus, in other words: to take up that burden of obedience to
Jesus, and I have to carry that cross every day. I have to follow
Him. I have to obey what I know what is right. The Holy Spirit
convicts each and every one of us, of sin and righteousness and
judgment. God has given us a conscience. His laws are written in our
hearts. We all know right from wrong, but we choose. We choose to do
right or to do wrong. If we choose wrong, in other words: if we
choose to sin, if we choose to disobey Jesus, to disregard Him, we
will perish. To sin is a choice. It's a decision. To follow Jesus
Christ and obey Him is a choice, it is a decision. We've got to make
that choice. If we choose wrong we will perish. We have to keep on
choosing right every day for the rest of our lives, we have to keep
on following Jesus every day of our lives until the very end if we
want to find the entrance into the kingdom of heaven, but if we
choose to go our own way, if we choose to sin, we will perish.
Many people have been deceived to
believe that if you only believe in Jesus Christ you will have
salvation. That is a lie from satan. If you believe in Jesus you will
believe His words, you will believe His warnings and you will live
according to His words as they are also recorded in the Gospels
Matthew Mark Luke and John. Nobody will have any excuse when we stand
before Him in judgment. If we sin, if we disobey Jesus we are already
judged, we are already condemned. Those who stop sinning, who follow
and obey Jesus do not get into judgment because they do not sin.
The only way to be pleasing to Jesus
and to enter the kingdom of heaven is to stop sinning and to obey
Jesus. The wages of sin is death. If you sin you will certainly
perish, but you must decide. What is your choice today? Do you want
to keep on being a sinner? Because, if you lie you're a liar, if you
sin you the sinner, if you fornicate you are a fornicator, you are a
sinner. If you don't stop sinning you will perish.
What is your choice today? Will you
choose to stop sinning, choose to stop being a sinner and choose to
follow and obey Jesus, and follow and obey Him until the very end?
That is the only way to have eternal life.
We have to choose before it is too
late, because if we stay on the wrong road we will end up at the
wrong place. If we want to enter the kingdom of heaven we've got to
choose to obey Jesus, stop sinning, obey Jesus; repent and be
baptized, live holy and righteous, follow the guidance of the Holy
Spirit that Jesus will give in you if you choose to follow Him, and
then you will have eternal life, but you must endure until the very
end.
Will you choose today to stop being a
sinner and start being a follower and a disciple of Jesus Christ?
The choice is yours.
May Jesus bless you.
