TO BELIEVE OR NOT TO Believe the TRUTH (John 3:16-18)?

“Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the LORD his God. Which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein is: which [KEEPETH TRUTH FOREVER]” (Psalm 146:5–6).

“Thy word is [TRUE FROM THE BEGINNING]: and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth forever” (Psalm 119:160).

“We can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth” (2 Corinthians 13:8).

“[IN HOPE OF ETERNAL LIFE, WHICH GOD, THAT CANNOT LIE, PROMISED BEFORE THE WORLD BEGAN]” (Titus 1:2).

“But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, [GLORY NOT, AND LIE NOT AGAINST THE TRUTH]. [THIS WISDOM] descendeth not from above, but [IS EARTHLY, SENSUAL, DEVILISH]. For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work” (James 3:14–16).

“[HE] was a murderer from the beginning, and [ABODE NOT IN THE TRUTH, BECAUSE THERE IS NO TRUTH IN HIM. WHEN HE SPEAKETH A LIE], he speaketh of his own: [FOR HE IS A LIAR], and the father of it” (John 8:44).

“[FOR THIS IS GOOD AND ACCEPTABLE] in the sight of God our Saviour; who will have all men to be [SAVED], and to come unto the [KNOWLEDGE OF THE TRUTH]” (1 Timothy 2:3-4).

“And ye shall [KNOW THE TRUTH], and [THE TRUTH SHALL MAKE YOU FREE]” (John 8:32).

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that [WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE]. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. [HE THAT BELIEVETH ON HIM IS NOT CONDEMNED]: but [HE THAT BELIEVETH NOT IS CONDEMNED ALREADY], because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.” (John 3:16-18).

“[HE THAT HATH THE SON HATH LIFE]; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. [IF THE SON THEREFORE SHALL MAKE YOU FREE, YE SHALL BE FREE INDEED]” (John 8:36).

“[HE THAT BELIEVETH ON THE SON HATH EVERLASTING LIFE]: and [HE THAT BELIEVETH NOT THE SON SHALL NOT SEE LIFE]; but the wrath of God abideth on him” (John 3:36).

We are unmasked FAITHFUL FOLLOWERS OF JESUS CHRIST!

Especially today, we must be reminded to DAILY take up the CROSS of JESUS CHRIST (Luke 9:23), and not be taking part in the childishness of this world! Specifically, we cannot be FOLLOWING JESUS CHRIST and at the sametime participating on this day where darkness is being celebrated.

“For the [WISDOM OF THIS WORLD IS FOOLISHNESS] with God” (1 Corinthians 3:19).

“[WHO IS AMONG YOU THAT FEARETH] the LORD, that obeyeth the voice of his servant, [THAT WALKETH IN DARKNESS, AND HATH NO LIGHT]? let him [TRUST IN THE NAME] of the LORD, and [STAY UPON HIS GOD]” (Isaiah 50:10).

“[WHOSOEVER THEREFORE WILL BE A FRIEND OF THE WORLD IS AN ENEMY OF GOD]” (James 4:4).

“[LOVE NOT THE WORLD, NEITHER THE THINGS THAT ARE IN THE WORLD]” (1 John 2:15).

“[AND BE NOT CONFORMED TO THIS WORLD]: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God” (Romans 12:2).

“If any man loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. [AND THE WORLD PASSETH AWAY, AND THE LUST THEREOF]: but he that doeth the will of God abideth forever” (1 John 2:16–17).

“For ye are all the children of God by [FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS]” (Galatians 3:24).

“[TAKE HEED, BRETHREN, LEST THERE BE IN ANY OF YOU AN EVIL HEART OF UNBELIEF, IN DEPARTING FROM THE LIVING GOD]. But exhort one another [DAILY], while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast [UNTO THE END]” (Hebrews 3:12-14).

Our Lord JESUS warns, says: “AND [TAKE HEED TO YOURSELVES, LEST AT ANY TIME] your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and [CARES OF THIS LIFE], and ]SO THAT DAY COME UPON YOU UNAWARES]. For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth.

[WATCH YE THEREFORE, AND PRAY ALWAYS], that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to [STAND] before the Son of man” (Luke 21:34–36).

 

P R A Y without CEASING (1 Thessalonians 5:17).

Whatever we are facing this day: Unemployed and looking for employment; Not enough money to pay our bills; Little or no food to eat; Just lost a family member or loved one; Lonely and would like to get married; Problems in our household; Problems at work; Suffering illness; and so on.

Whatever we are facing this day we must pray to God in the name of Jesus Christ in truth and in Spirit, and believe in our heart that our prayers will be answered.

Our Lord, Savior and King Jesus Christ says: “When ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him” (Matthew 6:7-8).

“But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth” (John 4:23–24).

“And I say unto you, ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened” (Luke 11:9–10).

The Apostle Paul remined us to “…pray without ceasing…” (1 Thessalonians 5:17) said:

“Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need” (Hebrews 4:14-16).

“Now the [GOD OF PEACE] be with you all. Amen” (Romans 15:33).

Lord JESUS when are you coming?

“And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and [WHAT SHALL BE THE SIGN OF THY COMING, AND OF THE END OF THE WORLD]? And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you” (Matthew 24:3-4).

“When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:) [THEN LET THEM WHICH BE IN JUDÆA FLEE INTO THE MOUNTAINS]” (Matthew 24:15-16).

“[FOR THEN SHALL BE GREAT TRIBULATION], such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened” (Matthew 24:21-22).

“[IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE TRIBULATION OF THOSE DAYS] shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:”(Matthew 24:29).

“[AND THEN SHALL APPEAR THE SIGN OF THE SON OF MAN IN HEAVEN]: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, [AND THEY SHALL SEE THE SON OF MAN COMING IN THE CLOUDS OF HEAVEN WITH POWER AND GREAT GLORY]” (Matthew 24:30).

“[VERILY I SAY UNTO YOU, THIS GENERATION SHALL NOT PASS, TILL ALL THESE THINGS BE FULFILLED]. Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. [BUT OF THAT DAY AND HOUR KNOWETH NO MAN, NO, NOT THE ANGELS OF HEAVEN, BUT MY FATHER ONLY]” (Matthew 24:34-36).
“[BEHOLD, I COME AS A THIEF. BLESSED IS HE THAT WATCHETH], and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame” (Revelation 16:15).

“[WATCH] therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come” (Matthew 24:42).

“Take ye heed, [WATCH AND PRAY: FOR YE KNOW NOT WHEN THE TIME IS]” (Mark 13:33).

“[WATCH] therefore, [FOR YE KNOW NEITHER THE DAY NOR THE HOUR] wherein the Son of man cometh” (Matthew 25:13).

“[WATCH] ye therefore, and [PRAY] always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man” (Luke 21:34–36).

“Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen” (Revelation 1:7).

 

EXIT on the LAST DAY.

There is only ONE DOOR to exit on the LAST DAY before this heaven and earth passes away (John 3:16-18, 10:9, 14:6).

JESUS says: “[I AM THE DOOR]: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture” (John 10:9).

“And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven. But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth” (Matthew 8:11-12).

“[I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE]: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me” (John 14:6).

“[I AM HE THAT LIVETH, AND WAS DEAD; AND, BEHOLD, I AM ALIVE FOR EVERMORE], Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death” (Revelation 1:18).

TO BELIEVE or NOT TO BELIEVE?

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that [WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE]. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. [HE THAT BELIEVETH ON HIM IS NOT CONDEMNED]: but [HE THAT BELIEVETH NOT IS CONDEMNED ALREADY], because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God” (John 3:16-18).

Do not gamble with your lifetime because the outcome WILL BE FORVER: ETERNAL LIFE or Everlasting Punishment!

BELIEVE IN JESUS CHRIST!

“[THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE ETERNAL LIFE]” (John 3:15).

“Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever” (Hebrews 13:8) says:

“LET not your heart be troubled: [YE BELIEVE IN GOD, BELIEVE ALSO IN ME].

In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.

Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?” (John 14:1-5).

“Jesus saith unto him, [I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE: NO MAN COMETH UNTO THE FATHER, BUT BY ME]” (John 14:6).

GOOD overcomes evil.

We must ALWAYS try our best to do GOOD!

“For the LORD is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations” (Psalm 100:5). “The LORD liveth, in truth, in judgment, and in righteousness” (Jeremiah 4:2).

“Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil. It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones” (Proverb 3:5-8).

Jesus, the only begotten Son of God, the LORD, the Father says: “Ye have heard that it hath been said, ‘An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth:’ But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also” (Matthew 5:38-39).

“But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust” (Matthew 5:44-45).

The Apostle Paul; said: “[BE NOT OVERCOME OF EVIL, BUT OVERCOME EVIL WITH GOOD]” (Romans 12:21).

“Do good, O LORD, unto those that be good, and to them that are upright in their hearts” (Psalm 125:4).

“Blessed be the LORD for evermore. Amen, and Amen” (Psalm 89:52).

Keep on track to ETERNAL LIFE with J E S U S C H R I S T (John 3:16-18).

JESUS says: “Search the Scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life” (John 5:39–40).

“If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me” (Matthew 16:24). “And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me” (Matthew 10:38).

“Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation; of him also shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels” (Mark 8:37-38).

“For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God” (1 Corinthians 1:19).

“[THEY THAT FOLLOWETH AFTER RIGHTEOUSNESS AND MERCY FINDETH LIFE], righteousness, and honor” (Proverbs 21:21).

“[LAYING UP IN STORE FOR THEMSELVES A GOOD FOUNDATION] against the time to come, [THAT THEY MAY LAY HOLD ON ETERNAL LIFE]” (1 Timothy 6:19).

HOME is in H E A V E N.

Home is where the Heart is because Jesus says: “Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal. But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal. [FOR WHERE YOUR TREASURE IS, THERE WILL YOUR HEART BE ALSO]” (Matthew 6:19-21).

“For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens” (2 Corinthians 5:1).

“The LORD hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom ruleth over all” (Psalm 103:19).

“Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God. Selah” (Psalm 87:3).

“The LORD is exalted; for he dwelleth on high: he hath filled Zion with judgment and righteousness. Look upon Zion, the city of our solemnities: thine eyes shall see Jerusalem a quiet habitation, a tabernacle that shall not be taken down; not one of the stakes thereof shall ever be removed, neither shall any of the cords thereof be broken” (Isaiah 33:5, 20).

“Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walketh in a perfect way, he shall serve me” (Psalm 101:6).

“And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb’s book of life: (Revelation 21:27).

“Now the God of peace be with you all. Amen” (Romans 15:33).

Do you believe the word of GOD or the world?

The world, in recent times to this day, has been stating that one day human beings will find another planet earth, and will be able to go there to establish life on this new planet.

As a forefront to this endeavour man is now planning to go once again to the Moon and then to Mars?

The word of God says: “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that [WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE]. For God [SENT NOT HIS SON INTO THE WORLD] to condemn the world; but [THAT THE WORLD THROUGH HIM MIGHT BE SAVED]” (John 3:16-17).

“God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, [BY WHOM ALSO HE MADE THE WORLDS]” (Hebrews 1:1–2).

To BELIEVE that one day man is going to go to the Moon, or to Mars or to find another planet earth is to REJECT the word of GOD.

“[GOD IS NOT A MAN, THAT HE SHOULD LIE; NEITHER THE SON OF MAN, THAT HE SHOULD REPENT]” (Numbers 23:19).

“And the times of this [IGNORANCE] God winked at; but now [COMMANDETH ALL MEN] every where to [REPENT]: Because he hath [APPOINTED A DAY], in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath [GIVEN ASSURANCE UNTO ALL MEN, IN THAT HE HATH RAISED HIM FROM THE DEAD]” (Acts 17:30-31).

“[NO MAN HATH SEEN GOD] at any time; [THE ONLY BEGOTTEN SON], which is in the bosom of the Father, h hath declared him” (John 1:18).

“For there is [ONE GOD], and [ONE MEDIATOR BETWEEN GOD AND MEN], the man [CHRIST JESUS]: who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time” (1 Timothy 2:5–6).

“Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever” (Hebrews 13:8) says: The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: [REPENT] ye, and believe the gospel” (Mark 1:15). “[EXCEPT YE REPENT, YE SHALL ALL LIKEWISE PERISH]” (Luke 13:3).

“[HEAVEN AND EARTH SHALL PASS AWAY, BUT MY WORDS SHALL NOT PASS AWAY]” (Matthew 24:35).

“[HE THAT REJECTETH ME, AND RECEIVETH NOT MY WORDS], hath one that judgeth him: [THE WORD THAT I HAVE SPOKEN, THE SAME SHALL JUDGE HIM IN THE LAST DAY]” (John 12:48).

“I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE: NO MAN COMETH UNTO THE FATHER, BUT BY ME” (John 14:6).

“[NO MAN CAN COME TO ME, EXCEPT THE FATHER WHICH HATH SENT ME DRAW HIM]: and I will raise him up at the [LAST DAY]” (John 6:44).
