Greetings my friends, grace and peace to you in the name of God our Father and the Son and The Holy Spirit. God is so wonderful that He gives us the opportunity to share in the work of sharing the good news. The good news is that the salvation that God gives us is permanent because it is a work of God. One of my professors once said creating us was easy to God, but to save us He had to roll up His sleeves. Lord help me to share your word with your people and those who are seeking to know you. I pray that this will encourage my brothers and sister in their faith, and help others to accept your invitation for salvation in Jesus Christ. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.

One Tuesday morning bible study I taught a few years ago, a couple of the ladies there that day was concerned about their husbands, who had both went home to be with the Lord. I could sense that they were deeply concerned and truly didn’t know if their husbands were in Heaven or Hell. The reason they were troubled is because from bad information they had picked up through the years from people that in most cases has done the same thing. Their question was, If my husband died before he prayed would he go to heaven. The answer is contingent on whether or not He believed and trusted in Christ before he died. Now if he trusted in Christ before his death then God forgave him for all his sins. God know all the sins you will commit in your life. When God forgive you for your sins , He forgive you for all of your sins, Amen praise God. It would be very difficult for most people to ask for forgiveness before they die. Many people die without warning, it would be virtually impossible for them to pray before they die. Scripture doesn’t support this idea.

The good news is salvation is a work of God. Salvation places you into the hands of God. This is what Jesus Christ said, “And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand” (John 10:28). This is a great verse showing the security of the believer. Christ goes on to say, “My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand” (John 10:29). Our salvation is secure in the hands of The Father and The Son, Amen. Praise God, because He didn’t leave it up to us to secure our salvation. Thank you Lord, Amen. Let us rejoice in the Lord, for his mercy extends into infinity.

My Friends if you don’t know Jesus concerning the forgiveness of your sin, you are walking on very dangerous ground. Don’t gamble on your being able to believe and be save when you approach your time of departure, anything can go wrong at that time and you won’t be able. Take this opportunity now while you can. If you believe contact me, or tell somebody. God bless you, Amen!

There Is None Greater Than God

Greetings my friend, grace and peace to you in the name of the Father, The Son and the Holy Spirit. Thank you Father for give me this wonderful opportunity to share your word on the subject of eternal security. Lord guide me as I ommunicate what your word says concerning the permanence of being saved. thank you Lord in Jesus name. Amen!

In the eyes of God we have already been glorified and we are seated in heaven along side of Christ. And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified” (Romans 8:28-30). (italics added) Eyes of God have already been glorified.

God see us as we are already glorified, God sees us as we have left this body of sin, containing within sicknesses and disease. God see us as having left these sinful bodies and our sin nature and the consequences that we suffer in our live as a result. When God looks at us He don’t see us, God see His Son who died for us. Thank you Jesus. God sees it as an accomplished fact.If God see it as an accomplished fact in the past then it is going to happen in the future, then we are going to experience it in the future. Our salvation is permanent because in the eyes of God we are already glorified. There is no possibility that we will not experience this glorification, other wise God could not be God, Amen. My friend you don’t want to deny yourself such a great Salvation. It cost you nothing, it cost God His Son. God is willing to give it to you as a free gift. All you have to do is believe in His Son Jesus Christ. I hope this short message help you to make up your mind for Christ.

Contact me, tell me what you think

God bless you

Salvation Is Permanent Part 5

Salvation is permanent because the eternal God does not give birth to illegitimate temporary children. Greeting my friend’s in the name of God our Father the Son and the Holy Spirit. I thank God For This Wonderful opportunity to share His word with His People and those who are not. Lord help me to encourage them all concerning the permanence of your gift.

“But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God” (John 1:12-13).

Jesus had an interesting encounter with a Pharisee by the name of Nicodemus. The first thing Jesus said to Him was, you must be born again. This truth caused Nicodemus to realize that this is an impossible suggestion. Humanly speaking once a person is born into this life he can’t be unborn. Just the same you can’t be born into the human race again. From the Human prospective this is true. However Jesus explained to Nicodemus that you can’t go to heaven unless you come from heaven. You were born on earth so you are earthly. In order for you to be heavenly you must be born from heaven. Amen. You must be born again of the spirit. In order for you to be born again you must believe in Jesus Christ, you must believe that He is the Son of God, that he died for your sin, and mine. When you believe in Jesus, the moment you believe God gives you a new spirit you are born again. Praise God. Not by man not by human will but by God, Amen. Alleluia Glory be to God in the highest.

Salvation is Permanent because of God. God want you to have eternal life, trust in Jesus today. Thank you my friends,

God Bless you

My friends’ grace and peace I you in the name of God our Father the Son, and the. Holy Spirit. I thank God for this Opportunity to share with you His word concerning the permanence of the salvation He gives us. Lord guide me and direct me in Jesus name Amen.

God promises never to lose anyone who places their trust in His Son. What could be more assuring than this? God promises that whoever comes to Him in faith He will never lose them and He will never cast them out. Praise God the sin issue has been settle.

My friend let us just stop and thank God right now for He has taken care of everything we need to secure or salvation to the extent that we never have to concern ourselves over the issue again. God promises never to loose anyone who trust in Jesus Christ. Jesus said ”all that the Father has given shall come to me, him that come to me I shall in no way cast out” Amen. It’s done, it’s finish. The result of sin being paid for is that God gives to everyone who believes, forgiveness of their sin, membership into His family, a host of other gifts and rights, but to top it all off, God gives the gift of a precious jewel, eternal life. Amen Amen, thank-you Jesus.

It is God’s will that we are saved, therefore God sent His Son whom Here Love More than anyone to die on the cross for our sins. There you have it, God did it all. He sent His Son who is the only person He could totally depend on to carry out His Will even if it meant His death which it did. The Lord said that all He has given me I will in no way cast them out. Anyone who calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved ( Romans 10:13).

My friend if you don’t know the Lord as it concerns your sin issue, you are doing yourself senseless irreparable harm, if you remain unforgiven by God because you didn’t believe in Jesus Christ. Friends God’s word says that ” If you confess with your mouth, Jesus Christ is Lord and believe in your heart God raised Him from the dead, thou shall be saved.(Romans 10:9).

Take the time to deal with your sin issue, trust in Jesus, He will save you. Call on Him today. God Bless you. Let me know.

Greetings my Friends, Grace and peace to you in the name of God our Father and The Son And The Holy Spirit. I thank God for the exposing to us the treasure that was hidden from us until it pleased Him to make it known to us. I thank God for this opportunity to share His word with you to increase your understanding and strengthen your faith making you a powerful witness for Christ. Thank you Lord, Lead me and guide me so that I communicate your word in a way that is acceptable to you.

This is truly good news, salvation is permanent, it can’t be revoked. God is so great that there is no one greater,God love us with a love that has no Equal, a love that is infinite in nature. God is all powerful and able to accomplish anything He wants at any time He wants limited only by Himself. God’s love is Holy, spiritually pure. God is infinitely righteous, and just and He is the Justifier. He is the Judge of the universe in its entirety, Amen. The very thought of Him makes you tremble. There is no one like Him anywhere at all. It is Him, God who offers us eternal life which is in His Son, all God ask us to do is believe in Him.

Salvation in Jesus is permanent because Christ paid for all sin. Salvation is permanent because believers have been declared righteous. Salvation is permanent because everlasting is everlasting, Salvation is permanent because God promise to never lose one who trust in Christ, Salvation is permanent because God do not give birth to temporary children. Salvation is permanent because We are already Glorified in the eyes of God. Salvation is permanent because when you believe you are in God’s hand, and not your own. Salvation is permanent because a believer is sealed by the Holy Spirit. Salvation is permanent because when you trusted Christ you became part of the body. Salvation is permanent because eternal salvation is a gift not a reward. Salvation is permanent because it is God who keeps us saved.Salvation is permanent because God can not Lie. Thank you Lord God, Amen. My friends don’t take Salvation lightly because it is free. It is free to you and me, but make no mistake a terrible price had to be paid, the life of God’s only begotten Son.

My Friends I know how difficult t is to make a decision when you don’t have the information to base it on. Well here it is my friends, Don’t continue putting off your salvation. God has taken care of everything for you, trust God, He made the way for you, believe in Jess Christ, Amen.

God Bless You

Greetings my friends Grace and peace to you in the name of God our Father The Son and the Holy Spirit. Thank you Lord for giving me this’s opportunity to share your word concerning eternal security.Lord I ask that you lead and guide me so that I will be able to edify my brothers and sisters and so that I will be able to equip someone that has not come to Jesus because of lack of knowledge. Thank you Lord in Jesus name, Amen.

Salvation is Perminent because everlasting is everlasting. Everlasting means eternal, timeless, dateless, forever, endless, ageless, perpetual, infinite, and ceaseless. When referring to eternal life, it is referring to the life which is God’s and therefore it is not affected by the limitations of time. In the book of John 3:16 Jesus said “God so love the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believe in Him shall not perish but shall have everlasting life. In John 6:47 Jesus said “Verily,verily, I say onto you, He that believe on me has everlasting life. In John 5:24 Jesus said “ Verily verily I say onto you, He that hear my word and believe on Him that sent me, has everlasting life and shall not come into condemnation, but shall pass from death unto life. My friends now you have it, everlasting life is not everlasting life if it does not last for ever. God want to give you everlasting life, all you have to do is believe in the work His Son did on the cross for your sin. Do you believe ask Jesus to forgive you for your sin. Thank you Lord Amen. If you believe and you don’t know what to do blog me, share with me your thoughts.

God bless you all

Greetings my friends, grace, and peace to you in the name of God our father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. I thank God for the opportunity to share His word with you. Hopefully, we are able to bring one another to a higher understanding of the great love that God has bestowed upon us by the sacrifice of His son for the payment of our sin. Lord guide my thoughts so that I may express exactly what needs to be said to help someone receive the overwhelming desire to come to Jesus for the forgiveness of their sin, and receive from you the gift of eternal life, and much, much, more. Thank You, Lord, in Jesus name, Amen.

As soon as Jesus was nailed to the cross He asked God to forgive those who crucified Him. The great sacrifice He made to purchase and procure for us, the forgiveness of sin, this He prayed for. Jesus was crucified between two thieves, one whose heart was hardened to the end, the other thief heart was softened at the last, and he was snatched up, like out of a burning furnace. It is dangerous for anyone to wait until the time of their death beds to repent and think that they will find mercy. No one can be sure that they will have time to repent when they are about to die. One thing we can all be sure of is this thief was in a position of advantage being right there besides the Lord. He knew that the Lord did not do anything to deserve the vicious brutality which was being inflicted upon Him, as he reproved the other thief that was railing against Christ. He owned up to deserving what he was receiving and that Jesus had suffered wrongfully. In His prayer Christ was in the depth of disgrace, suffering as a deceiver, forsaken by His Father. Jesus made this profession when He said, My God, My God why have thou forsaken me? Startling the centurion who stood by.

The thief believed in the life to come and desired to be happy in that Life. Not like the other thief who only wanted to be saved from the cross. In his humility, he prayed, Lord remember me when you come into your kingdom. He was Humbled in true repentance, and show all its fruit. Christ on the cross is like Christ on the throne. He was in the greatest struggle and agony and He had pity on the penitent thief. By this act of grace, we understand that Jesus Christ died to open the Kingdom of Heaven to all penitent, obedient believers. This is a single instant in scripture that should teach us to despair none and that none should despair of themselves. One does not what to be in the awful state of the other thief who died hardened in unbelief although the crucified savior was near him. You can be sure that men die as they live.

The good news is that God offers you eternal life and that life is in belief in His Son and the suffering He did on the cross for you and for me, and the world. For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believe in Him shall not perish but shall have everlasting life (John 3:16). Do you believe? Let me know, blog me, give me a like, tell me what you think. Amen, God bless you.

Greetings Brothers and sisters, grace and peace to you in the name of God our Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. I thank God for giving me this opportunity to share with you the reason you should believe that Salvation is permanent. The more we know about the depth of our salvation, the more confident we can be in our walk and testimony for and before our great God. Lord God, I ask that you guide me as I delineate your word concerning the permanence of your gift of life, thank you in Jesus name, Amen.

Romans 3:21-26 (ASV)
²¹ But now apart from the law a righteousness of God hath been manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;
²² even the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ unto all them that believe; for there is no distinction;
²³ for all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God;
²⁴ being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:
²⁵ whom God set forth to be a propitiation, through faith, in his blood, to show his righteousness because of the passing over of the sins done aforetime, in the forbearance of God;
²⁶ for the showing, I say, of his righteousness at this present season: that he might himself be just, and the justifier of him that hath faith in Jesus.

God is the one who determines who goes to Heaven and who does not. God is the Judge of the entire universe. Salvation is permanent because believers have been declared righteous. God has ordained that all who trust in Jesus Christ as their savior are justified. Justified is a term referred to in a court of law, whereas the judge declares a person to be not guilty. God has judged us to be not guilty, we have been justified, and declared righteous. God on the basis of his promise, has taken our sin and imputed it upon Jesus Christ, and He took Jesus righteousness and imputed it upon us who placed their trust in Jesus for salvation. Based upon that confession of faith Jesus redeemed us, by the grace afforded by His blood shed on the cross as payment for our sin and God justified us and declared us to be righteous. Not because we were righteous and earn it, we have no righteousness of our own. The righteousness that God declared us is the righteousness of Christ. God took our unrighteousness and imputed it on Jesus Christ on the cross.

Romans 8:31-34 (ASV)
³¹ What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who is against us?
³² He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not also with him freely give us all things?
³³ Who shall lay anything to the charge of God’s elect? It is God that justifieth;
³⁴ who is he that condemneth? It is Christ Jesus that died, yea rather, that was raised from the dead, who is at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.

My friends, it is settled, the Judge of the universe has spoken! The verdict is in, it is settled, His verdict is clear if you trusted in Jesus and the work He did on the cross, God’s verdict for you is not guilty. You have received eternal life. Do you believe? Trust Jesus Christ now tomorrow might be too late. Amen.

God Bless You

Greetings Brothers and Sisters, Grace and peace to you in the name of God our Father, The Son and the Holy Spirit. I thank God for this opportunity to share with you concerning our permanent State of eternal security. Lord lead me and guide as I share your word with your people in which I am one, thank you Lord in Jesus Name Amen.

When Jesus, therefore, received the vinegar, He said, it is finished: and He bowed His head and gave up the ghost (John 19:30). When Jesus died on the cross He paid for all past sins, He paid for all sins that were being committed while He was being curcified, and He paid for all future sins, even for those of ours who had not even been born and even those who are still to be born. Christ paid for all sins, all meaning 100% of of all there is.

The payment required for our redemption from the slave market of sin were paid in full there is no more left to be paid for. It was this one time perfect payment of our Lord Jesus Christ that provides for us eternal redemption. Eternal means forever. Once we have it it is forever. Neither by the blood of goats or calves, but by His own blood He entered in once into the Holy place, having obtained redemption for us (Heb 9:12).

Jesus died on the cross for the sins of the world, He is the only person qualified to make the payment necessary to redeem us. Jesus did this because He Love us. You can only receive the salvation provided by Jesus death by believing that He died for your sin. Meaning that He died in your place, the death He endured was rightfully yours. God so love the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that who ever believe in Him Shall not perish but shall have ever lasting life ( John 3:16). Once you believe in Jesus you will receive eternal life, Salvation is permanent because Jesus Paid for it in full, and you can receive it, all you have to do is believe and ask Jesus to forgive you. Once you believe in Jesus you never have to worry about your salvation again. If you are saved and you read this God Bless you, we serve a awesome God, hallelujah. If you are not and you don’t know what to do contact me blog me, tell me what you think. God bless you all. Amen.
