Let me give you a little background about myself because I want to teach you in love and not with your guard up.
I grew up and am still technically a "member" of my local Presbyterian church. My Grandparents and family attended this church and I was granted membership upon graduation of high school. My Grandmother still attends this church and many people I know go there and they could be considered 'good people'. But the church is not biblical. And I am not trying to say that with any hate-it is the truth. And the church today is far less biblical than it was when I was 18 some 20 years ago. I love the people there-but it is not a Christ serving church. The last time I sat in those pews-the reverend denied the deity of Christ by saying He did not "really perform miracles".
I never really heard the Gospel in the church-I knew the story-but I did not KNOW the Gospel message. The Presbyterian church would have you believe that YOU can somehow-or might-get into heaven by learning to be a 'nice person'. This is not biblical. The Presbyterian church would now see me as fool who actually believes what the Bible says about getting into heaven and the afterlife. They will tell you that I do not understand the "true meaning" behind the Bible-but they somehow do.
Here's the thing-I don't want you to believe me- believe what the Bible says-that is what we call "Faith". Believe what Jesus Christ says-not me-not a "church"-not a 'doctor'-but the Son of God who is God in the flesh. KNOW the Gospel-which means "Good News". You can know TODAY! that if you died you would be on your way to heaven:
...God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them... And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.
Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God....Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
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. And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
I am the way, the truth and the life.
Love
Jesus the Christ-Son of the Living God
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.
For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.
For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
But God commandeth His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
With Love,
Paul-Apostle to the Gentiles
