Jesus
says, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father
except through me.” (John 14:6)
Jesus
is the only Way to have relationship with God, the Father in Heaven. He is the
Truth and the Life. To know Jesus means knowing the Truth about everything. To
have Jesus is to have Life. Not having Jesus means not knowing the Truth, not
having Life and not having God in Heaven.
Jesus
died on the Cross for our salvation, that we may have relation with God in
Heaven. This is the love of God display by Jesus Christ.
“But
God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners,
Christ died for us.” (Romans 5:8)
To
have life in God, you have to received Jesus Christ for your Saviour and Lord
of your life. His disciples have received Him and passed on the good news to us
that we may also have life in God. The Apostle Paul says,
“For what I received I passed on to you as of
first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures,
that he was buried ,that he was raised on the third day according to the
Scriptures, and that he appeared to Peter, and then to the Twelve. After that,
he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers at the same time, most of
whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep. Then he appeared to
James, then to all the apostles, and last of all he appeared to me also, as to
one abnormally born.” (1 Corinthians 15:3-6)
We
Must Receive Jesus Christ As Savior and Lord, so that we may enjoy the fruit of
God’s love in Jesus Christ. God promised to receive for His children all who
received Jesus Christ. The Bible clearly says,
“Yet
to all who received Him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right
to become children of God”.( John 1:12)
Doing
good work and living good life will not give salvation. The best work and the
best way man can effort is nothing in the sight of the Holy and righteous God. But
when we believe and receive Jesus, God consider us acceptable by grace. “For it is by grace you have been saved,
through faith and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God not by works,
so that no one can boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9)
Hope
you have already personally received Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. If not, receive Him now. Pray the following
prayer to make this all important decision right now!
“Lord
Jesus, I am a sinner only to perish without You. Please forgive me of all my
sin against you. I Thank You for dying on the cross in my place for my sins. Please,
take your throne in my life. Be my Lord and saviour. I entrust you to control
and direct my life as my Lord and Savior. Help me live a godly life through the
Holy Spirit. I pray in Your Holy name. Amen.”
If
you earnestly pray this prayer with full faith in Jesus Christ, God will
forgive you and make you His child. So, start living a new life pleasing to
God. Study the Bible daily and pray continuously.
God
bless you.
