Do you know Him?
If I were to let sin reign in my body, then — what a mess. But I don’t let it. I am not “these things”. I am strong in Him. Only in Him.
In that moment in time when you repented and accepted Jesus as Lord and Savior – your spirit was made perfect. It has to be perfect to enter the Kingdom of our Perfect God. You were saved through grace and sheer mercy. And now your name is written in The Book of Life.
God does not save the unlucky person, even by His marvelous grace, who does not follow Him in obedience. You don’t just waltz in, say “Okay God. Looks good”, then walk out and do your own thing. The Godman Jesus said “Follow Me”. The concept of getting saved without then obeying and following Jesus is not in the Bible.
Jesus taught the true version of salvation. I got my version from God Himself! Where on earth are you getting your version?
I am surprised that the majority of humans reject Jesus, leaving Jesus aside, choosing some other alternative belief or unbeliefism. For so, so many – Jesus is Savior no more.
The two doctrines are true: He chooses us (1 Peter 2:9), and we have a choice to make: “Whosoever will may come”. Have you chosen Him for yourself? Only God is Good. Choose to make that “eternal divide” permanent – for goodness sake.
