The whole purpose of the Bible is to show the way to salvation. Have you found it?
Think about it. Are you on that Way of Jesus? Really on it? Or, not so much?
“…They profess
to know God,
but
by their deeds
they deny Him….“
– Titus 1:15-16

If you do not obey God,
you deny Him.
Your deeds show it.
See in one link or: John 14:15 and Romans 6:16
You deny God by your disobedience, disobeying His written Word. Your profession of faith is thus null and void. Scary thought.
God sees “obedience” in your heart at the moment of your confession for salvation. Or not. True repentance comes from a yeilded obedience. And followance follows. You do not “know” God if what you live-out contradicts Jesus (Titus 1:15-16).
“…by their deeds
they deny Him….”
– Titus 1:15-16
See: OMGjesus search “followance“
Salvation never happens without obedience. Never did, never does, never will. I’d say, “Don’t count on it!”
But true repentance and followance? Now THAT you can take to the bank. Well, I mean the bank in Heaven where our treasures are. See Matthew 6:20, Hebrews 11:6. OMGjesus search “rewards”!

Being saved involves truly following Jesus. The gist of James 2:20 tells us, Faith without resultant works — is dead. Got obedience in your life? Salvation never happens without obedience. Never did, never does, never will. I’d say, “Don’t count on it!” But true repentance and followance? Now THAT you can take to the bank. Well, I mean the bank in Heaven where our treasures are (Matthew 6:20, Hebrews 11:6, OMGjesus search “rewards“)!

Romans 6:16 Do you not know that when you continually offer yourselves to someone to do his will, you are the slaves of the one whom you obey, either [slaves] of sin, which leads to death, or of obedience, which leads to righteousness (right standing with God)?
Salvation. True version – False version
Salvation in Christ is beyond HUGE
Promises God makes about your salvation
What was it like – your confession to Jesus?
Jesus said, “I am the way….” See: John 14:6, John 5:21
Jesus said, “These Scriptures are all about me!”
“You are not of God”, Jesus said – John 8: verses 45-47
The Godman Jesus said, “Follow Me.” See Site Search for “follow me”
Jesus declares He is God in 7 “I am” Statements Excerpt: There are seven (7) “I am” statements of Jesus where He made it clear He claimed to be God – and Savior of all sinners who repent (John 14:6).
When a sinner repents…Savior of all sinners who repent (John 14:6)
Why the Bible Excerpt: The Bible is like no other book. Have you read it lately? It was put together by God to communicate Himself to us. He did this through prophets separated by hundreds of miles, over the course of hundreds of years.
Bible predictions are accurate. Many already came true, and many are “in-the-works”. Jesus alone fulfilled over 300 of them. The Bible’s end times predictions now read like current events!
What knowing the Bible does for you
What happens when you do not know what the Bible says on a matter?
“If you [really] love Me,
you will
keep and obey My commandments.”
– John 14:15
Also see: Titus 1:15-16 and Romans 6:16.
Conform or resist the pressures 1 Thessalonians 5:5 AMP
Got a rash on, or faith? Excerpt: Habakkuk 2:4 explains the difference between being “rash” and “having faith”.
4 See, the rash have no integrity;
but the just one who is righteous
because of faith
shall live.
– Habakkuk 2:4
Think like God Almighty…Think about it
Think about it. Have you strayed from the truth? Excerpt: You got it? The truth that is godly?
It takes a lot of careful thinking to keep safe the “godly truth entrusted to” us who follow Jesus. 1 Timothy 6:20-21 .
The Apostle Paul tells us 1 we must constantly be discerning, like a judge with a gavel, passing judgement right and left — upon what is said around us. Or else.
We must develop a biblical mentality – and think like God Almighty! Truly! It is that bad out there nowadays.
Make judgements all day long…we must constantly be discerning
The Progressive Nature of Evilness…It is that bad out there nowadays.
Spontaneous illogicality and double-speak
You cannot lose what God keeps secured for us
Christ secured our eternal home
Rewards in Heaven
Why will Jesus say to some “I don’t know you”?
Jesus saves and Jesus condemns
What saves you vs What does not save——-
What was it like – your confession to Jesus?
Practicing Sin, Not Following Christ
Caught up with a practice God has said not to practice?
As if your mindset is protected by God
Caught up with a practice God has said not to practice?
Pleasure and bad behaviors we love to fall for
“You are not of God”, Jesus said
It’s all okay Excerpt:
…It’s okay. It’s okay, right?
But wait: God has spoken
get it right with Him, yah?
Or don’t you care to spend
a day with Him and ever after?
