TO BELIEVE OR NOT TO Believe the TRUTH (John 3:16-18)?

Image
“Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the LORD his God. Which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein is: which [KEEPETH TRUTH FOREVER]” (Psalm 146:5–6). “Thy word is [TRUE FROM THE BEGINNING]: and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth forever” (Psalm 119:160).   “We can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth” (2 Corinthians 13:8). “[IN HOPE OF ETERNAL LIFE, WHICH GOD, THAT CANNOT LIE, PROMISED BEFORE THE WORLD BEGAN]” (Titus 1:2). “But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, [GLORY NOT, AND LIE NOT AGAINST THE TRUTH]. [THIS WISDOM] descendeth not from above, but [IS EARTHLY, SENSUAL, DEVILISH]. For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work” (James 3:14–16). “[HE] was a murderer from the beginning, and [ABODE NOT IN THE TRUTH, BECAUSE THERE IS NO TRUTH IN HIM. WHEN HE SPEAKETH A LIE], he speaketh of his own: [FOR HE IS A LIAR], and the father of it” (John 8:44)....

We are unmasked FAITHFUL FOLLOWERS OF JESUS CHRIST!

Image
Especially today, we must be reminded to DAILY take up the CROSS of JESUS CHRIST (Luke 9:23), and not be taking part in the childishness of this world! Specifically, we cannot be FOLLOWING JESUS CHRIST and at the sametime participating on this day where darkness is being celebrated. “For the [WISDOM OF THIS WORLD IS FOOLISHNESS] with God” (1 Corinthians 3:19). “[WHO IS AMONG YOU THAT FEARETH] the LORD, that obeyeth the voice of his servant, [THAT WALKETH IN DARKNESS, AND HATH NO LIGHT]? let him [TRUST IN THE NAME] of the LORD, and [STAY UPON HIS GOD]” (Isaiah 50:10). “[WHOSOEVER THEREFORE WILL BE A FRIEND OF THE WORLD IS AN ENEMY OF GOD]” (James 4:4). “[LOVE NOT THE WORLD, NEITHER THE THINGS THAT ARE IN THE WORLD]” (1 John 2:15). “[AND BE NOT CONFORMED TO THIS WORLD]: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God” (Romans 12:2). “If any man loves the world, the love of the Father i...

P R A Y without CEASING (1 Thessalonians 5:17).

Whatever we are facing this day: Unemployed and looking for employment; Not enough money to pay our bills; Little or no food to eat; Just lost a family member or loved one; Lonely and would like to get married; Problems in our household; Problems at work; Suffering illness; and so on. Whatever we are facing this day we must pray to God in the name of Jesus Christ in truth and in Spirit, and believe in our heart that our prayers will be answered. Our Lord, Savior and King Jesus Christ says: “When ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him” (Matthew 6:7-8). “But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth” (John...

Lord JESUS when are you coming?

Image
“And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and [WHAT SHALL BE THE SIGN OF THY COMING, AND OF THE END OF THE WORLD]? And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you” (Matthew 24:3-4). “When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:) [THEN LET THEM WHICH BE IN JUDÆA FLEE INTO THE MOUNTAINS]” (Matthew 24:15-16). “[FOR THEN SHALL BE GREAT TRIBULATION], such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened” (Matthew 24:21-22). “[IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE TRIBULATION OF THOSE DAYS] shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens s...

EXIT on the LAST DAY.

Image
There is only ONE DOOR to exit on the LAST DAY before this heaven and earth passes away (John 3:16-18, 10:9, 14:6). JESUS says: “[I AM THE DOOR]: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture” (John 10:9). “And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven. But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth” (Matthew 8:11-12). “[I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE]: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me” (John 14:6). “[I AM HE THAT LIVETH, AND WAS DEAD; AND, BEHOLD, I AM ALIVE FOR EVERMORE], Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death” (Revelation 1:18).

TO BELIEVE or NOT TO BELIEVE?

Image
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that [WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE]. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. [HE THAT BELIEVETH ON HIM IS NOT CONDEMNED]: but [HE THAT BELIEVETH NOT IS CONDEMNED ALREADY], because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God” (John 3:16-18). Do not gamble with your lifetime because the outcome WILL BE FORVER: ETERNAL LIFE or Everlasting Punishment! BELIEVE IN JESUS CHRIST! “[THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE ETERNAL LIFE]” (John 3:15). “Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever” (Hebrews 13:8) says:   “LET not your heart be troubled: [YE BELIEVE IN GOD, BELIEVE ALSO IN ME]. In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, ...

GOOD overcomes evil.

Image
We must ALWAYS try our best to do GOOD! “For the LORD is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations” (Psalm 100:5). “The LORD liveth, in truth, in judgment, and in righteousness” (Jeremiah 4:2). “Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.   In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil. It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones” (Proverb 3:5-8). Jesus, the only begotten Son of God, the LORD, the Father says: “Ye have heard that it hath been said, ‘An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth:’ But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also” (Matthew 5:38-39). “But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That y...

Keep on track to ETERNAL LIFE with J E S U S C H R I S T (John 3:16-18).

JESUS says: “Search the Scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life” (John 5:39–40). “If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me” (Matthew 16:24). “And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me” (Matthew 10:38). “Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation; of him also shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels” (Mark 8:37-38). “For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God” (1 Corinthians 1:19). “[THEY THAT FOLLOWETH AFTER RIGHTEOUSNESS AND MERCY FINDETH LIFE], righteousness, and honor” (Proverbs 21:21).   “[LAYING UP IN STORE FOR THEMSELVES A GOOD FOUNDATION] against the time to come, [THAT THEY MAY LAY HOL...

HOME is in H E A V E N.

Image
Home is where the Heart is because Jesus says: “Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal. But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal. [FOR WHERE YOUR TREASURE IS, THERE WILL YOUR HEART BE ALSO]” (Matthew 6:19-21). “For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens” (2 Corinthians 5:1). “The LORD hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom ruleth over all” (Psalm 103:19). “Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God. Selah” (Psalm 87:3). “The LORD is exalted; for he dwelleth on high: he hath filled Zion with judgment and righteousness. Look upon Zion, the city of our solemnities: thine eyes shall see Jerusalem a quiet habitation, a tabernacle that shall not be taken down; not...

Do you believe the word of GOD or the world?

Image
The world, in recent times to this day, has been stating that one day human beings will find another planet earth, and will be able to go there to establish life on this new planet. As a forefront to this endeavour man is now planning to go once again to the Moon and then to Mars? The word of God says: “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that [WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE]. For God [SENT NOT HIS SON INTO THE WORLD] to condemn the world; but [THAT THE WORLD THROUGH HIM MIGHT BE SAVED]” (John 3:16-17). “God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, [BY WHOM ALSO HE MADE THE WORLDS]” (Hebrews 1:1–2). To BELIEVE that one day man is going to go to the Moon, or to Mars or to find another planet earth is to REJECT the word of GOD. “[GOD IS NOT A MAN, THAT HE SH...

HOME FOREVER is in H E A V E N (Matthew 6:19-21) (John 3:16-18).

Image
This heaven and earth will pass away (1 Peter 21:33) (Mark 13:31) (2 Peter 3:10)! “For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens” (2 Corinthians 5:1). Before he left this earth, our Lord Jesus very clearly told his disciples, saying: “Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away” (Matthew 24:35). “In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you” (John 14:2). He also told his disciples, “[I GO TO PREPARE A PLACE FOR YOU]. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also” (John 14:2–3). Jesus is in the heavens where there is already NEW HEAVENS AND A NEW EARTH where there is the NEW JERUSALEM. In the Book of Revelation John said: “[AND I SAW A GREAT WHITE THRONE, AND HIM THAT SAT ON IT, FROM WHOSE FACE THE EARTH AND THE HEAVEN FLED AW...

This earth is NOT home!

This heaven and earth will pass away (1 Peter 21:33) (Mark 13:31) (2 Peter 3:10)! Jesus says: “Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away” (Matthew 24:35). Before he left this earth, Jesus very clearly told his disciples, “In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you” (John 14:2). He also told his disciples, “[I GO TO PREPARE A PLACE FOR YOU]. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also” (John 14:2–3). Jesus is in the heavens where there is already NEW HEAVENS AND A NEW EARTH where there is the NEW JERUSALEM. In the Book of Revelation John said: “[AND I SAW A GREAT WHITE THRONE, AND HIM THAT SAT ON IT, FROM WHOSE FACE THE EARTH AND THE HEAVEN FLED AWAY; AND THERE WAS FOUND NO PLACE FOR THEM]” (Revelation 20:11). “And I saw a [NEW HEAVEN AND A NEW EARTH]: [FOR THE FIRST HEAVEN AND THE FIRST EARTH WERE PASSED AWAY]; and there was ...

“Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever” (Hebrews 13:8) says: “‘It is more blessed to [GIVE] than to receive’” (Acts 20:35).

We live in a world where too often the it is exclaimed “I want this, I want that and so on”. However, we must all take a moment and ponder JOHN 3:16! Yes; take a moment today and read slowly every word, and we soon come to realize the paramount significance to the word “Gave” because JESUS CHRIST GAVE HIS LIFE FOR THE SINS OF THE WORLD! “For God so loved the world, that he [GAVE] his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life” (John 3:16). “[FOR SCARCELY FOR A RIGHTEOUS MAN WILL ONE DIE]: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. But God [COMMENDETH HIS LOVE TOWARD US, IN THAT, WHILE WE WERE YET SINNERS, CHRIST DIED FOR US]” (Romans 5:7-8) “[FOR ALL HAVE SINNED, AND COME SHORT OF THE GLORY OF GOD]; Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus” (Romans 3:23-24). “[SO CHRIST WAS ONCE OFFERED TO BEAR THE SINS OF MANY]; and [UNTO THEM THAT LOOK FOR HIM SHALL HE A...

There will be ONLY RIGHTEOUSNESS in the world without end in the New Heavens and New Earth. “For the righteous LORD loveth righteousness; his countenance doth behold the upright” (Psalm 11:7). “The LORD liveth, in truth, in judgment, and in righteousness” (Jeremiah 4:2). “Seek ye out of the book of the LORD, and read” (Isaiah 34:16). “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in [RIGHTEOUSNESS]” (2 Timothy 3:16). Jesus says: “Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away” (Matthew 24:35). “Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth [RIGHTEOUSNESS]” (2 Peter 3:13). “For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven” (Psalm 119:89).

Do you have the SAVIOR (John 3:16-18)?

Image
His name is JESUS CHRIST. “Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever” (Hebrews 13:8). “[I AM HE THAT LIVETH, AND WAS DEAD; AND, BEHOLD, I AM ALIVE FOR EVERMORE], Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death” (Revelation 1:18). “[I AM THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD]: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life” (John 8:12). “[I AM THE DOOR]: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture” (John 10:9). “[I AM THAT BREAD OF LIFE]. This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die” (John 6:48, 51). “[I AM THE VINE], ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me” (John 15:5, 4). “[I AM THE GOOD SHEPHERD]: the good shepherd giveth...

SAVED BY GRACE THROUH FAITH OF JESUS CHRIST.

Image
Many hold to beliefs and there are doctrines which preach along the lines, saying: “Once saved always saved”. However, our Lord Jesus Christ says: “No man, having put his hand to the plough, and [LOOKING BACK], is fit for the Kingdom of God” (Luke 9:62).   “But he that shall [ENDURE UNTO THE END, THE SAME SHALL BE SAVED]” (Matthew 24:13). “Remember Lot’s wife” (Luke 17:32)? Lot, his wife and two daughters were elected to be saved form the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah. The angels of God told them, saying: “Escape for thy life; [LOOK NOT BEHIND THEE], neither stay thou in all the plain; escape to the mountain, lest thou be consumed” (Genesis 19:17). However, Lot’s wife loved life so much in Sodom and Gomorrah that she had to have one last look, but it was not to be, because she turned into a pillar of salt (Genesis 19:26). Lot’s wife did not believe the word of God as spoken by the angels of God. Lot’s wife did not endure to the end, and lost her life. When Jesus...

A Lifetime of suffering in RIGHTEOUSNESS and then an ETERNITY OF PEACE or A Lifetime of Pleasures in UNRIGHTEOUSNESS and then an ETERNITY OF PUNISHMENT?

Image
CHOOSE WISELY. The Apostle Paul well said: “For I reckon that the [SUFFERINGS OF THIS PRESENT TIME ARE NOT WORTHY TO BE COMPARED WITH THE GLORY] which shall be revealed in us” (Romans 8:18). On the the LAST DAY, the DAY OF JUDGMENT at the END OF THE WORLD, we will ALL know our destination: ETERNAL LIFE or EVERLASTING PUNISHMENT? “[FOR WE MUST ALL APPEAR BEFORE THE JUDGMENT SEAT OF CHRIST]; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad” (2 Corinthians 5:10). JESUS CHRIST explains the events of that DAY, saying: “When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall [HE SIT UPON THE THRONE OF HIS GLORY; AND BEFORE HIM SHALL BE GATHERED ALL NATIONS]: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats; and [HE SHALL SET THE SHEEP ON HIS RIGHT HAND, BUT THE GOATS ON THE LEFT]. Then shall the King say unto them on his [RIGHT HAND...

‘666’.

Image
DO NOT FEAR THE NUMBER ‘666’! WHEN THE DAY COMES, AND IT IS COMING when there will rise to power one ruler over this whole world, the seventh and last world kingdom (Daniel 8:23–24). THIS RULER IS A KING: not a president; prime minister or other world leader in power today. “[HERE IS WISDOM. LET HIM THAT HATH UNDERSTANDING] count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six” (Revelation 13:18). It is important for us to keep in our hearts that these words are written by GOD. “For the LORD giveth [WISDOM: OUT OF HIS MOUTH COMETH KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING]” (Proverbs 2:6). The number ‘666’   IS THE KEY TO UNLOCKING THE NAME OF THE NAME OF THIS WORLD RULER, THE SEVENTH KING. Therefore, there is no need to FEAR! “The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. Is there any thing whereof it may be said, S...

Are you in the KINGDOM OF GOD?

Image
“Yes; “I FOLLOW JESUS CHRIST”! “[FOR I AM NOT ASHAMED OF THE GOSPEL OF CHRIST]: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek” (Romans 1:16). “BELOVED, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: [EVERY SPIRIT THAT CONFESSETH THAT JESUS CHRIST IS COME IN THE FLESH IS OF GOD: And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world” (1 John 4:1-3). “Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them. We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. He...

DAY OF THE LORD:

Image
“Be ye also [PATIENT; STABLISH YOUR HEART: FOR THE COMING] of the Lord draweth nigh” (James 5:8). “But the [DAY OF THE LORD] will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness, Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness” (2 Peter 3:10-13). “Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, [BE DILIGENT THAT YE MAY BE FOUND OF HIM IN PEACE, WITHOUT SPOT], and blameless” (2 Peter 3:14). “Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever” (Hebrew...

Be wise and Be SAVED!

Image
“Look unto me, and be ye [SAVED], all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else” (Isaiah 45:22). “No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him” (John 1:18). “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be [SAVED]" (John 3:16-17). “For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are [SAVED] it is the power of God. For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to [SAVE THEM THAT BELIEVE]” (1 Corinthians 1:19, 21). “He that [BELIEVETH ON HIM IS NOT CONDEMNED]: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God” (J...

The CROSS OF JESUS is LOVE is the POWER OF GOD.

Image
To be SAVED, RESCUED OR REDEEMED from this earth on the LAST DAY, human beings must have the SPIRIT OF LOVE or the SPIRIT OF GOD or the SPIRIT OF JESUS CHRIST. “For God [SO LOVED THE WORLD, THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE]. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved” (John 3:16-18). “For the [PREACHING OF THE CROSS] is [TO THEM THAT PERISH FOOLISHNESS]; but [UNTO US WHICH ARE SAVED] it is the [POWER OF GOD]” (1 Corinthians 1:19). “He that [BELIEVETH ON THE SON HATH EVERLASTING LIFE]: and he that [BELIEVETH NOT THE SON SHALL NOT SEE LIFE]; but the wrath of God abideth on him” (John 3:36). “Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever” (Hebrews 13:8) says: “It is the [SPIRIT THAT QUICKENETH]; the flesh profiteth nothing: the [WORDS THAT I SPEAK] unto you, [THEY ARE SPIRIT, AND THEY ARE LIFE]” (John 6:63). “For as t...
