IN JESUS' OWN WORDS "Blessed are the merciful for you shall obtain mercy." (Matt:5:7) "Not everyone who says, "Lord Lord" shall enter Heaven but those who do My Father's will in Heaven". (Matt:7:21). "If you do not forgive others for their sins, your heavenly Father will not forgive you for your sins." (Matt:6:15) "He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me." "And he who does not take up his cross and follow Me is not worthy of Me." (Matt:10:37-38) "Judge not and you will not be judged. Condemn not and you will not be condemned. Forgive and you shall be forgiven". (Lu:6:37). "My sheep hear my voice, and I know them and they follow Me. "And I give them eternal life and they shall never perish, neither shall anyone snatch them from My Father's Hand". (Jn:10:27-28), "He who loves his life will lose it; and who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternity". (Jn:12:25). "A new command I give you, that you love one another as I have loved you; that you also love one another." "So by this all men will know you are My disciples, if you have love for one another." (Jn:13:34-35) All of these sayings of Jesus instruct us to use our faith to follow him-- a call to actions, not to just "believe" as so many churches today claim. We can accept the words of Jesus or the twisted dogma of man. Home ALL RIGHTS RESERVED |
