In reply to my previous post you mentioned RELIGION...
I'm in no way supporting RELIGION as the way.
Trusting and Believing in Jesus Christ sits outside of religion.
Religion is MAN'S WAY of trying to look Holy, either to God or to humanity.
True Christianity is not religion.
True Christianity is simply trusting and believing in Jesus Christ.
True Christianity is having a one on one relationship with Jesus Christ.
All one needs to do is to do everything Jesus tells one to do; simple as that!
Religions state that you have to do what they tell you to do to please God.
Since Jesus is God, then you have a direct link with Him who we should Follow.
And, Jesus will lead the way if one will let Him; simple as that.
For all you antichristian conspirators:
The only reason you question the reality of Jesus is because Jesus is not in you.
The reason why you do not understand why one could trust in Jesus is because He is not in you.
Jesus must be IN you for you to KNOW Him! Without HIM you are not only AT A LOST but you are COMPLETELY LOST.
And, you can't just give Jesus a try and expect to know and understand the existence of Jesus Christ. Many give Jesus a TRY, but one cannot just TRY
Jesus, they MUST COMPLETELY CHOOSE JESUS. This is a very serious decision, and Jesus knows the difference!
If you think you can accept Jesus halfheartedly you are mistaken.
YOU MUST ACCEPT JESUS WITH YOUR WHOLE BEING!!!
Any other way, such as just reading or listening to scriptures, will never satisfy any need to know or understand the TRUTH of Jesus.
I've met many that say, "I was a Christian...blah....blah...".
There is not one person who gives all that they are to Jesus, and Jesus comes to live inside them, that can ever, or would ever want to, leave Jesus
Christ.
Jesus is more than powerful enough to change ANYONE in such a way that one would never want to leave Jesus.
The only people who claim to have been a Christian were NEVER a TRUE CHRISTIAN to begin with, because Jesus changes a new Christian in such a way that
they will NEVER want to leave Jesus!
Only liars who NEVER gave themselves to Jesus in TRUTH will say they WERE CHRISTIANS, but there is not one true Christian that has ever left Jesus
saying Jesus is not real, or Jesus is not true, or Jesus is not good.
And, once again, I must say, Having Jesus IN YOUR HEART is not anything like the religions of the world, because Jesus does not expect ANYTHING from
you that you are not capable of being able to do. Religions on the other hand expect everything from you, and when you cannot achieve their idea of
Holiness they will brand you a sinner incapable of pleasing God!
Jesus is not so cruel! JESUS IS NEVER THAT CRUEL!
Even if you were asked by Jesus to give your life, Jesus would make it possible to achieve that WITHOUT DIFFICULTY!!!
NO ONE ELSE IS AS LOVING!!!
So, don't place Christianity with the rest of the religions of the world. Just watch out for Christians who try to tell you what they think Jesus
wants you to do! Because, many who are not Christians like to look like Christians, and they love trying to put other people in some form of bondage,
or they do things they say is right, when it is completely wrong!
I personally do not put my trust or faith in any person on this earth, whether they say they are Christians or not, because ALL OF US are capable of
being wrong! The only one not capable of doing anything wrong is Jesus Christ, and that is because HE is The Lord God Almighty, and God can NEVER do
wrong!
