John
14 : 6
I am the way, the truth and the life.
No one comes to the Father but by me. |

The
biggest lie about
Christianity is...
God punishes us for our sins
|
|
| |
|
|
|
God does not punish us for our sins. God allows
us to particpate in sin because he gives us free
will. He wants us to come to Him and be obedient
to Him because we love Him and trust Him like
a parent. We can choose to partake in sinful activities,
but if we do he is not required to protect us
and eliminate the consequences of the activity
once we are affected. Like a young child a new
Christian might be the recipient of frequent rescue,
but one day you grow up and reach the age of accountability
and have decisions to make.
If you trace back the origins of problems in your
life and use the Bible as an instruction manual
for behavior you will find the answers to most
of your troubles. By the standard of science,
if most of your troubles are traceable by this
fashion, there is a good chance that all of them
are...you just haven't dug deep enough to find
the sin that started the cycle. Satan enjoys manipulating
people who do not know how to fight him. He particularly
enjoys taunting people in such a way that they
blame God. He is a master of human nature and
manipulation and lies are his playthings. Your
weapon and protection is the power of God and
the promises in the scriptures in the Bible. Are
you defenseless?
The word of God says that he will take all bad
and use it for good. Satan has control of any
areas of your life that are attached to sin in
your life. When sin causes you to have Satan playing
around in your daily business and he is really
making you miserable you need help. God has a
plan for you to be rescued from the power of Satan
and his evil manipulations.

Jesus is the answer... have you rejected Jesus in
the past because he doesn't fit your lifestyle...?
Do you feel if you become a Christian you have to
go sit at a church that is filled with funeral music
pounded out on an organ and sit at home waiting
for death so you can finally be happy in heaven?
Christians are not what you think they are if these
are the reasons for you to hold out. Christians
are everywhere...they are movie stars, political
leaders, sports heros... |

There
are all kinds
of churches these days. Some are
ministry
based, some have contemporary
worship, some are loud and wild and some are
quiet and prayerful... |
| |
|
|
|
Christianity is a gradual process. Some of today's
Christian leaders have set a really poor example
of how those who know Jesus should behave. Their
failings however should reinforce the power of God
and the saving power of Jesus. They have repented
of those sins and returned to ministry after a time
of reflection and counseling. God forgives these
fallen souls when they repent and change their lives.
How much more forgiving is God of those who have
never known Him or His power? God forgives sin.
He eliminated the process of sacrificing animals
to wash them away with a blood sacrifice by creating
a perfect sacrifice that would, in one act become
covering for all sin. All we have to do is accept
that sacrifice, His son Jesus, and strive to improve
our lives and come closer to the example of Jesus. |

If you are considering Christianity, then you have
done all the preparation that you need to join the
family of Christ. You cannot be saved by works...so...behaving
for awhile first so that you are a good person when
you are saved is worth nothing. When you are saved
it would not matter if you were a mass murderer
who led the local band of Satan worshippers and
performed abortions in your spare time...when you
are saved, your soul is as clean and pure as Jesus.
All that you need to do to keep it that way is to
repent of any sin that you partake in and ask forgiveness.
You do not have to start over from scratch. We live
in a fallen world and temptation is constant. There
are many loving ministries and churches that are
desperate for God to send them people who want to
learn about Him. Let their prayers be answered. |

Dear
Jesus,
I believe that you came to this world to save
me from my sins. You were born of Mary and the
Holy Spirit of God, were baptized and lived a
pure sinless life. You were crucified as a sacrifice
for my sins by the shedding of your blood on the
cross. I believe that you are the Son of God and
through you I am saved. Please forgive me from
my sins and send your Holy Spirit presence to
dwell in my soul like a new conscience to guide
me in my walk through life with you.
I
praise you and thank you for this precious gift.
In
the precious name of Jesus...Amen.
