Salvation Will Cost You Everything



Jesus said:"Follow Me." He never said to just believe in Him. He said we must become His disciples to have eternal life. If you believe in Jesus, you have to obey Him.

Jesus never said salvation is free. He said:“If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters— yes, even his own life— he cannot be My disciple. 27And whoever does not carry his cross and follow Me cannot be My disciple."Luke 14:26. If we love anything more than Jesus, we are not  worthy of Him.

Does it mean that you have to hate your loved ones in order to follow Jesus? No. It means that you have to love and obey Jesus MORE than them.

In order to follow Jesus you have to repent, turn from sin and from following after your selfish desires. Turn to Jesus and commit to obey and follow Him. You have to obey His words, His teachings as recorded in Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. Be baptized in water and live holy. Seek fellowship with Jesus in prayer and He will give His Holy Spirit to be in and with you to teach and guide you. Put your mind on Jesus and on pleasing Him and He will guide you, so that you can follow Him and do what He tells you to do. He will clearly guide you, speak to you in your spirit, in your heart.

He will tell you what He wants you to do. He will convict you of things that you need to stop doing, things you need to get rid of. He will send you to speak to people. He will put the words that you have to speak in your mouth and in your mind, but if you do not follow and obey Him, you cannot be pleasing to Him, you cannot be His disciple. If you care more for the reaction or feelings of others than for what Jesus commands, you cannot obey Him. If you care more for your possessions, securities and your own comforts than for obeying Jesus, you cannot be His disciples, you cannot follow Him, you cannot be pleasing to Him. You have to be willing to give up everything in order to follow Jesus and do what He commands.

Jesus does not ask for sacrifice. He wants obedience. Giving up your earthly pleasures does not please Jesus. He requires you to do what He tells you to do. In the process you will have to give up certain things. If you refuse, those things or relationships will prevent you from following Jesus and obeying Him.

Jesus will never force us to follow Him, but if we refuse to pay the price of obedience, we cannot please Him, we cannot be His disciple and we will not inherit eternal life. We need to die to self and live for Jesus, to have eternal life.

Do not be fooled into believing the lies of the easy believerism preachers, that say that you only need to believe in Jesus to have salvation. Faith without works is dead. If you do not follow and obey Jesus, and pay the price of obedience to Him, you will not have salvation.

Get serious with Jesus. Follow and obey Him until the end or you will not have salvation.

May Jesus bless you.

Your Bible is NOT God



To many people their Bible is their Alpha and their Omega, the beginning and the end of their faith. They use their Bible for everything, to prove their faith, to justify themselves, they use their Bible to comfort them, some special verses. They use it to fight with, to refute other people. They use it as a map, for direction. They take their counsel from the Bible. Their Bible is their God, it is there everything, and therefor THEY DO NOT KNOW GOD, they DO NOT KNOW JESUS CHRIST.
Jesus Christ saves and justifies, guides and provides for those who FOLLOW AND OBEY Him, not for those who cling to their Bibles and justify themselves. If your bible has become the replacement for Jesus Christ in your life then your Bible is your God, it is your IDOL, and your Bible will cause you to end up in hell because it is Jesus whom you need.
You need to be guided by the Holy Spirit, you need to get your counsel from Him, your comfort, your guidance. If Jesus Christ is not the Alpha and Omega of your life, the Beginning and the End then Jesus Christ is not part of your life. Is Jesus TRULY your LORD? Do you FOLLOW AND OBEY Him? Is Jesus YOUR GOD or is your Bible your God?

May Jesus bless you.

Everything is POSSIBLE



Everything is possible for those who follow Jesus Christ because He Himself goes ahead of them. Many so-called believers say they cannot stop sinning. It is because they are not following Jesus.
Make up your mind, deny yourself, pick up your cross every day and follow Jesus Christ and NOTHING WILL BE IMPOSSIBLE FOR YOU.

May Jesus Bless you.

Jesus Christ Is BIGGER than the Bible


God Almighty, the Creator of all things revealed Himself to mankind in the form of Jesus Christ but the world did not accept Him they rejected Him. Even today people regard the Bible higher than Jesus Christ, they seek for eternal life within the pages of the scriptures, of the Bible, but they reject Jesus Christ. They do not know Him.
When God Himself in the form of Jesus walked this earth He said to the people:”You diligently search the scriptures, in there to find eternal life but you REFUSE to come to Me and HAVE LIFE.” Jesus Christ Himself IS GOD, He is the Way the Truth and the Life, there is no other. You do not need a Book, You do not need other people's advice. All you need is Jesus Christ Himself!
If you seek Him, you will find Him. If you do not seek Him and you reject Him you will perish because He is God Almighty. HE IS GREATER THAN EVERYTHING. He is the ALMIGHTY!
Do you know Jesus Christ the ONE and ONLY TRUE GOD and DOES HE KNOW YOU? When you pass from this earth, when you leave this body, will you see Jesus as He is and will He accept you, invite you into His Eternal Kingdom? Or will He say to you:”Go away I never knew you, you worker of wickedness. You UNBELIEVER, you never believed in ME. You believed in other people, you believed in the Bible but you never ACCEPTED ME.”
Have you ACCEPTED that HE IS GOD and do you give Him the respect and reverence, do you SERVE HIM as God and Master? Are you continuously in AWE of your Master Jesus Christ OR do you not know Him?

May Jesus bless you.
