Are you aware of what-all is actually required to truly “accept Christ”? Believing “in the name…” means accepting “all that Jesus Christ is and does”. Have you sincerely repented and truthfully “believed” in Jesus? Are you honestly following Jesus?
Our defining affirmation of salvation is also here in 1 John
What God does to each of us when we are born again? That is what saves us – what He does to us. But He does not save the “cracked heart”, the one who holds-back anything. Did God save you, or have you deviated into what He is against?
Hating is life changing – eternal life changing. Scary thought.
It’s a scary thing to habitually hate. In 1 John 3:14 we read, “He who does not love remains in [spiritual] death.” Also 1 John 4:20 says we can’t love God if we hate our brother. Do you think you can enter Heaven — if you don’t love God?
One Human Race
We are actually all together one race. Is anyone reading the Bible – and actually trying to follow Jesus – with love for others?
Never Again
The true believer is in Christ, “reborn from above” – never to be “unborn” again. The true believer will never again be under the condemnation of God. Ever. “That act of becoming born again — is an act of God upon our life. We don’t do it — He does it! And that is why it will never be undone.”
