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.

"PLEASE BE READY" BY DAVID MCMILLEN
PLEASE BE READY
A LOT OF PEOPLE NEED TO READ THIS SCRIPTURE AND REALLY TAKE IT TO HEART. Luke 13:23-24 "Then said one unto him, Lord, are there few that be saved? And he said unto them, Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able." ALTHOUGH IT IS NOT GOD'S WILL THAT ANY SHOULD PERISH, WE KNOW THAT THERE ARE GOING TO BE MORE THAT PERISH THAN NOT.
WHO IS SAVED? BEING AS GOOD AS YOU CAN BE AND GOING TO CHURCH EVERY TIME THE DOORS ARE OPEN WILL NOT DO IT. JUST BECAUSE YOUR PARENTS WERE CHRISTIANS AND EVEN MADE YOU GO TO SUNDAY SCHOOL EVERY SUNDAY (LIKE MINE DID) WILL NOT DO IT EITHER.
EVEN THAT SWEET LITTLE OLD GRANDMOTHER WHO NEVER HURT ANYONE IN HER WHOLE LIFE IS LOST IF SHE HAS NOT RECEIVED JESUS AS HER SAVIOR. BEING BORN AGAIN IS THE ONLY WAY TO BE SAVED. JESUS, HIMSELF, SAID THAT MANY WILL SEEK TO ENTER SALVATION AND WON'T BE ABLE TO. THERE ARE MANY REASONS FOR THIS BUT NOT BECAUSE GOD REFUSES SALVATION TO ANYONE.
TIMOTHY 2:11 SAYS "THE GRACE OF GOD THAT BRINGS SALVATION HAS APPEARED TO ALL MEN" AND 2ND PETER 3:9 SAYS GOD "IS NOT WILLING THAT ANY SHOULD PERISH, BUT THAT ALL SHOULD COME TO REPENTANCE". THERE IS AN EFFORT INVOLVED IN GETTING SALVATION BUT IT IS NOT TO EARN IT BECAUSE IT IS A FREE GIFT (ROMANS 5:15).
THE EFFORT IS TO FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT OF FAITH (1 TIMOTHY 6:12). FAITH IN JESUS IS WHAT SAVES US AND SATAN IS TRYING TO DESTROY OUR FAITH. RECEIVING SALVATION IS NOT RECEIVING IT IN OUR MINDS BUT RECEIVING IT WITH OUR HEARTS. IT IS THE BEST GIFT YOU WILL EVER GET AND IT KEEPS ON GIVING FOR ETERNITY.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
