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.

This could be interpreted as the ultimate teaching in predestination. That interpretation would be that these people were never given the opportunity to believe because of Isaiah's prophecies. However, the Word of God makes it clear that "whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved" (Rom. 10:13); "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Rev. 3:20); and "whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely" (Rev. 22:17). No one has ever been denied the opportunity to accept salvation (Ti. 2:11).

I HAVE WRITTEN ON THIS BEFORE BUT I DON'T BELIEVE IT CAN BE PREACHED ENOUGH. IT IS TOO IMPORTANT AND I DON'T WANT SATAN TO WIN AND HE WILL IF WE DON'T GET THESE PEOPLE SAVED. TO ALL OF YOU NON-BELIEVERS OUT THERE, I HAVE SOMETHING TO TELL YOU. IF YOU ARE LIVING A GOOD, CLEAN LIFE, NOT GETTING DRUNK, OR STEELING, OR COMMITTING ADULTERY AND YOU HAVEN'T KILLED ANYONE, IT DOESN'T MATTER ONE BIT. IF YOU HAVEN'T CONFESSED YOUR SINS AND ACCEPTED JESUS AS YOUR SAVIOR, YOU ARE GOING TO HELL. IT IS AS SIMPLE AS THAT. YOU MIGHT THINK THAT IS A LITTLE HARSH, AND YOU ARE RIGHT, BUT IT IS NOT AS HARSH AS IT IS GOING TO BE FOR YOU IN ETERNITY. IF THIS SCARES THE HELL OUT OF YOU AND MAKES YOU FEEL BAD, I AM GLAD. THIS IS WHAT I WAS TRYING TO DO.
The only reason Satan ever had any right to become a prince or rule over us was because we yielded ourselves to him through sin (Rom. 6:16). Since Jesus "bore our sins in His own body on the tree" (1 Pet. 2:24), Satan no longer has power or authority over those who accept Jesus' gift of salvation. Satan has been "cast out" -- stripped of any power he had. Now he can only deceive, and if we fall for his lies, we stop God's blessings from flowing in our lives.
The reason why a believer must live a holy life, is to avoid Satan's bondage. When we obey sin, we yield ourselves to Satan, the author of that sin.Yielding to sin is yielding to a person, Satan. God doesn't impute the sin to us but the devil does. Our actions either release the power of Satan or the power of God in us.

DO YOU KNOW WHAT THE WORD "MARVEL" MEANS? I AM GOING TO PUT THE DEFINITION HERE. MARVEL "Strong
There is still a future judgment of the world coming, where the wicked will be separated from the righteous and cast into the lake of fire. This verse refers to the sins of the world that were about to be placed on Jesus and that He would suffer our punishment.
Jesus suffered the punishment for our sins, so there is no reason why we should suffer for them too. The price for sin has already been paid by the only one who could fully pay it and that is Jesus. All Jesus asks of us to make His redemption ours, is faith in Him as our Lord.
Sin has a wage it must pay and no one can avoid payday without faith in Jesus. Anyone who does not receive the new birth will be held liable for all the wrong they committed as a result of their sinful nature. However, those who receive the new...
This is the third time recorded in the gospels that the Father spoke in an audible voice to or about Jesus (First, at Jesus' baptism in the Jordan River and second, at the transfiguration of Jesus).
This verse makes it clear that it was a voice that the Father spoke in; however, there were different reports of the same event. Some people heard a voice and thought it was an angel who spoke. Others thought it was thunder.
This illustrates "the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned" (1 Cor. 2:14). A carnal man with a hardened heart will always find some natural explanation for the supernatural even if he...
