What YOU MUST DO to have ETERNAL LIFE


There are many false doctrines and lies
around this subject, deception that will take may believers to hell.
Many false gospels are being preached. There is only one gospel that
leads to eternal life and that is the WORDS and COMMANDMENTS of
Jesus. It is vitally important that we make sure tha4t we obey the
exact words of Jesus and do not follow one of the many false gospels
that are being preached.
Jesus Christ is the final judge of all
men and He alone will decide who will have eternal life. He
personally delivered the words of eternal life, that will save those
who obey them. The words of Jesus were recorded in the gospels,
Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, the red letter words, in some Bibles.
Those who reject Jesus and disregard His words are already judged.
The gospel of Jesus is the gospel of
the kingdom of God. Jesus said:” The Law and the Prophets were
proclaimed until John; since that time the gospel of the kingdom of
God has been preached, and everyone is forcing his way into it.”
Luke 16:16. He was referring to John the Baptist. John the Baptist
came, preaching in the wilderness of Judea, saying, 2“Repent,
for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” Matthew 3:1. Then
Jerusalem was going out to him, and all Judea and all the district
around the Jordan; 6and
they were being baptized by him in the Jordan River, as they
confessed their sins.” Matthew 3:5,6.
Not only did
Jesus preach the gospel of the kingdom. He subjected Himself to it.
He had no sin, but he was also baptized by John the Baptist. He
practiced what He preached and demonstrated how those who believe in
Him, should live. Jesus did nothing on His own initiative. He came to
do the will of the Father. After He was crucified and resurrected,
before He ascended to heaven, He also commanded His disciples to go
to Jerusalem and wait for the Holy Spirit, that was given on the day
of Pentecost, so that they would also, like Him, be led by the Holy
Spirit, to be able to do the will of the Father.
It is the same gospel that Peter
preached on the day of Pentecost as is written in Acts 2:38,39.
“Peter said to them, “Repent, and each of you be
baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your
sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39“For
the promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off,
as many as the Lord our God will call to Himself.”
Jesus said:”FOLLOW ME.” He promised
ETERNAL LIFE to those who become His sheep and follow Him. The gospel
of the kingdom of God is: RECEIVE/ACCEPT Jesus. REPENT and be
BAPTIZED. Turn from sin, sin no more, then be baptized in water, as
Jesus and His disciples were also baptized. Live your life in
obedience to the words and commandments of Jesus. For those who obey
Him, He promised the Holy Spirit, to come and dwell in them, to teach
and guide them, the very same as He was directed by the Father.
We can only FOLLOW Jesus and have
eternal life if we are BORN AGAIN of water, through water baptism,
and of Spirit, through the baptism in the Holy Spirit. Jesus said:
My sheep hear My
voice, and I know them, and they follow Me; 
28and
I give eternal life to them, and they will never perish;“ John
10:27,28. There is no talk of going to church, or reading the Bible,
or listening to other people, preachers etc. His sheep do not follow
strangers. We read in John10:
4
“When
he puts forth all his own, he goes ahead of them, and the sheep
follow him because they know his voice. 
5“A
stranger they simply will not follow, but will flee from him, because
they do not know the voice of strangers.” He gives them
eternal life because they FOLLOW HIM.
Most
professing Christians are not His sheep. They might believe in Him,
but they do not follow Him, because they are not born again, do not
know Him and therefor do not know His voice. They follow after
strangers, preachers, churches, false prophets, deceivers. They
believe they have salvation and will have eternal life, but they are
deceived, by false gospels.
Seek
Jesus for yourself. Obey the gospel of Jesus Christ. RECEIVE Him,
REPENT AND BE BAPTIZED, live according to His words and commandments.
Ask Him to baptize you in the Holy Spirit, so you can be BORN AGAIN,
KNOW HIM, HEAR HIS VOICE and follow Him. Pray, speak to Jesus. He
will speak to you, in your spirit. “Those who are being led by the
Spirit of God, they are the children of God.” Romans 8:14. They
follow Him and He gives eternal life to them.
May
Jesus bless you.
