About
I AM AN 80 YEAR OLD MALE, BORN AGAIN, CHRISTIAN WITH A LOVE FOR JESUS. I DO NOT GET OUT MUCH ANYMORE BUT FIND THAT TELLING PEOPLE ABOUT THE LOVE JESUS HAS FOR THEM IS NOT ONLY WHAT WE ARE SUPPOSED TO DO BUT SOMETHING THAT THE WORLD NEEDS.

SALVATION, NOW AND FOREVER
SALVATION, NOW AND FOREVER
I HAVE HEARD ALL MY ADULT LIFE, "ONCE SAVED, ALWAYS SAVED", AND I HAVE HEARD A LOT OF MINISTERS AND PEOPLE SAY THAT IT WAS NOT TRUE. WELL, WHEN I WAS NOT REALLY STUDYING THE BIBLE, MANY YEARS AGO, I REALLY DID NOT KNOW EITHER. I ALWAYS HOPED IT WAS TRUE THAT I WOULD ALWAYS BE SAVED BUT NO ONE COULD TELL ME FOR SURE.
FINALLY I GOT SMART AND WENT TO THE BIBLE AND STARTED STUDYING FOR MYSELF. GUESS WHAT I FOUND......THE ANSWER, RIGHT IN GOD'S WORD. READ IT FOR YOURSELF, "ROMANS 8:37-39 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus ourLord."
I THINK THAT PASSAGE PRETTY MUCH TELLS IT THE WAY IT IS...NOTHING CAN SEPARATE US FROM GOD. I AM GLAD IT INCLUDED "WHICH IS IN CHRIST JESUS OUR LORD" BECAUSE WE, WHO ARE BORN AGAIN, ARE IN JESUS. JESUS SAID THIS HIMSELF IN JOHN 14:19-20 Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also. At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in Me, and I in you. YOU MIGHT ASK "WHAT IF SOMEONE DENOUNCES JESUS"? THAT IS A DIFFERENT STORY. HE GAVE US A FREE WILL AND IF SOMEONE DOES NOT WANT THEIR SALVATION ANYMORE, HE WILL NOT GO AGAINST THEIR WILL.
SO, IF ANYONE EVER ASKS YOU IF YOU CAN LOSE YOUR SALVATION, YOU CAN TELL THEM NO. THIS SHOULD MAKE A LOT OF YOU FEEL MUCH BETTER. WE HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH JESUS LOVES US. I GUESS THE BEST EXPLANATION IS THAT "HE IS LOVE". LET'S MAKE IT OUR GOAL THIS WEEK TO GO OUT AND TELL SOMEONE ABOUT HOW MUCH JESUS LOVES THEM. HOW ELSE WILL THEY KNOW IF WE DON'T TELL THEM. GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
