SALVATION NOT EN EVENT IT IS A JOURNEY



Salvation is not just the once off event

where you believe in Jesus but then you

are saved.

Salvation is a journey with Jesus , the

Living God'

Jesus said:"Follow Me and I will give you

eternal life." Jesus gives eternal life to

those who. believe in Him, who receive Him

and then obey and follow Him.

Jesus has requirements for those who

follow Him and you have to be willing to

submit to those requirements, be willing

to live the way that Jesus wants you to

live. If you want eternal life you have

to turn away from sin from your previous

lifestyle of self-gratification, submit

your life to Jesus and live in

fellowship with Him but you first have

to meet Him. You meet Him on your knees

when you bow down before Him and you

humble yourself before Him. You ask

forgiveness for your past sins, you

invite Him into your life and you commit

to obey and follow Him, commit to live

according to His words as they were also

recorded in Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.

You have to repent, stop sinning and be

baptized in water. You have to live holy

and righteously. You have to work your

relationship with Jesus in prayer and He

will reveal Himself to you if you take

Him seriously.

If you obey His words then He promised

to give His Holy Spirit in you to come

and be with you, to guide you and teach

you. Jesus Himself will come and dwell in

you He is Immanue,l God with us. We have

to stay with Him listen, to His Holy

Spirit and live in obedience to His

words

and He will guide us every step of the

way, all of our life but if we turn away

from Jesus, then we have deserted Him. He

will never leave us. Iif we do not stay

with Him until the very end.

we will not enter the kingdom of heaven.

He said that those who endure until the

end with Him, they will have eternal life.

Those who follow Jesus obey His words,

those which he taught and they listen to

the Holy Spirit, they are led by the Holy

Spirit. They do what Jesus tells them to

do, by His Spirit that lives in them and

that is how they follow Him. We do not

follow Jesus by reading a Bible

practicing, religion or going to a church.

We follow Jesus by a close relationship

with Him in prayer, always having him on

our mind, listening to His Holy Spirit

that is given in us, obeying Him

following Him, living holy and

righteously and submitting ourselves to

Him living the way that he wants us to

live, that He guides us to live. We have

to follow Jesus until the end to have

eternal life. It is a journey, it is a way

of living, a new way of living living. for

the kingdom of God not for yourself

anymore but in obedience to Jesus, fully

submitted to him as a disciple. Jjust to

believe in Jesus is not enough, that does

not change anything.

If we believe in Jesus we receive Him,

follow Him and obey Him until the very

end and that his how you will have

eternal life. There is no other way. Jesus

is the way.

Accept Him, receive Him, obey Him. Stay

with Him until the end and you will

have eternal life. May Jesus bless you
