THANK YOU LORD FOR SALVATION!
Jesus said that wherever he goes, he'll make a place for us to be with him. He was speaking to the disciples when he said this. I just love the book of John. It's so foundational to our understanding of who Jesus really is...and that his purpose in coming to earth was for mankind to be redeemed from its fallen state.
This world is not our home, we're just passing through. I don't know about you, but I'm so thankful for this promise. Seriously, aren't you?
Throughout the scriptures we're told that those who put their trust and hope in God and in him alone, that they'll get to dwell eternally with him, where HE Himself dwells.

1 Thessalonians: 4:16-18 -- For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

Wanting to give glory and honor to GOD, I never want to post anything. that doesn't give the opportunity for those who are truly searching for God, the chance to find him.
God says all who truly seek him will find him. Jesus Christ, God's Son came into this world to save sinners and reconcile them back to God. He was crucified on a Roman cross, so that you and I could receive salvation and forgiveness of our sins, through his shed blood. Praise God that He was willing to take our sins upon himself, even though he never sinned, he paid the penalty of our sins so that we wouldn't have to be held responsible. For without the shedding of blood, there is no remission of sin (Hebrews 9:22).
If you don't know Jesus Christ as your personal Savior, I invite you to do so now. Time is short, and none of us know when we will breathe our last breath in this life. Don't make the mistake of thinking you have all the time in the world. Not to scare you, but you could die at anytime.
The ABC'S of the gospel message are as follows:
A - ADMIT you're a sinner in need of saving,
B - BELIEVE Jesus died and arose from death,
C - CONFESS him as your Lord and Savior.
See several scriptures below, that show this. READ ON.....
John 14:6 -- Jesus saith unto him I am the way, the truth, and the life: no one cometh unto the Father, but by me.
John 3:16 -- For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whoever would believe in him would have eternal life.
Romans 3:10 -- As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
Romans 3:23 -- For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
Romans 6:23 -- For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Romans 10:9 -- That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
If you've done this, you can know for certain that you're God's child. He's dependable and won't ever leave you, once you've trusted in him for salvation. There's no other name whereby you must be saved. This is TRUTH!
Acts 4:12 -- Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
Please feel free to contact me if you have trusted in Christ as a result of reading this or if you would like your questions answered about, why JESUS? I will help you any way I can, and point you in the right direction if you ask me something I don't know.
EVERYTHING in life hinges on JESUS CHRIST, who he is and what he's done for us, and in your case you...DO YOU KNOW HIM? There's no better time than right now, to make sure of your eternal destiny!
2 Corinthians 6:2 -- For He says: "In an acceptable time I have heard you, And in the day of salvation I have helped you."Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation."
Luke 15:10 -- Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth.
