His Way Is The Only Way!

We can not be moved by this world. The Devil is fighting us every single day. The Devil wants to keep us busy, distracted, confused, anything but following and keeping our focus on God. His way is the only way. This life is not ours. Jesus bought us, paid the price and we belong to Him-for those who choose. Sure it's easy to just go along w/ the world and live life the way we think we should live it. Figure it all out on our own. That's not the way that it works. This life is a battle and a war between good and evil, Jesus vs. Satan. Which side are you on!? You can't straddle the fence. You can't be double minded. We have to stop the backsliding. Time is winding down. When that time comes for the Lord to come and rapture his Bride out of this world, will you be left behind!? I do not want to be here for that, I can tell you that now! The Bible is real. I don't want to see my friends and family who might get left behind go through the tribulation. It's not going to be good people. We are here for one purpose and that purpose is to make a decision. Whether we make it because we are on our death bed or because we want to be obedient to God's Word and live according to His word and reap the reward now. It saddens me greatly to think of my friends and family who are lost, dark, alone and not saved. They don't know about what's to come. Nor are they even moved or feel convicted! How can you not be convicted!? It must be our prayer. A prayer w/ anguish for our loved ones to get saved now! Tomorrow might be too late. You say, "how do you know this is real?" Why take the chance and go to hell if we are right!? Well, in your shoes then if all of the Christians on this earth are wrong (which I know we aren't) then, you have nothing to lose. What's so wrong w/ following the bible anyways?! It just makes you a better person and character. Oh, you don't believe everything that it says, right? It makes us feel uncomfortable, uneasy, ruffed up your feathers, step on your toes, makes you think about all the sin your willing committing each day, you can't figure it out on your own, in your own little mind. Let me tell you something, no body here on Earth has a brain big enough or smart enough to figure it out, prove it or prove it wrong! So, stop trying. This is the way it is. We don't have to sit here and try to figure it out and wonder why or this or that. Just take it and go. We don't need to know everything. Don't we have enough to know about. There is so much more the Bible has to offer us than this junky world can ever think about. God gives up free will and we do not have to choose his way. We can go to hell if we want. Jesus was beaten, battered, bruised, neglected, abused, betrayed, whipped, chastised, every possible pain you can endure, he did it for us. He was nailed to a cross, hung on the cross and chose to die for us. So, we didn't have to. He died so our sins can be forgiven. We were born sinners and there was a price that had to be paid. He paid it for us. He gave us a gift. How do you feel when someone rejects, stomps on, doesn't even acknowledge your gift, when you died to give it to them! Oh, how God must feel! He gave His only Son so we can have salvation, freedom, eternal life in Heaven! Well, we are one of three ways: Devils way- worldly way, our own way...., God's way: those who do believe, saved, baptized, holy ghost, true believers.... both- are the ones like I used to be: believes there is God but still lives for themselves or the world. Still out there committing sin intentionally, but then goes home at night to lay down in your bed and pray to God to save your soul. Thank God, He didn't give up on me. He kept knocking on my heart, tugging on me, tapping on me shoulder, letting me never to forget. The ones that don't know it's real and pray, but yet you aren't saved, don't go to church, don't read your bible, forget about God until you need something. Oh, how we have it wrong. What about the future leaders, our coming generations to come! How much more afar are they going to be!? We are to be about our father's work and business. It's crunch time! We are to be reading our bible every single day, praying everyday, praising and worshipping every single day, attending church! I'm talking to myself here too. We need to prioritize our time, works, money, life, activities, t.v., Internet time. Are we really just going to sit here and let our kids grow up sitting on the couch watching TV and let them go to Hell!? Because living according to the Bible, isn't easy. It's hard and very few will enter through the narrow gate. Your going to have to resist the devil, resist the flesh, ignore your own selfish desires, follow instructions, rules and a book! That's the reality of it. Heaven or Hell. When time is up, then you will know the truth. One day every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus is Lord. Don't be the one that when we are face to face w/ Jesus and he tells you, "depart from me. I do not know you!"  Not only does God give us eternal life in Heaven, but look what He does for us now?! He heals our sickness and disease. Yes, He still does heal. Deliver us, loves us-so we can truly love others, gives us: peace, joy, contentment. Makes us better characters w/ self-control, discipline. He gives us strength, protects us, provides for us. He goes through the storms with us. He gives us patience. Leads, guides and direct our paths. Fills us w/ His sweet Holy Spirit. Forgive us-hello! Even we have trouble forgiving ourselves, better yet, how about forgiving others!? He helps us! How can we not need him! Those who do not turn to him and those who do still have time, I believe God is going to send some stuff their way to make them realize they do need Him. I think a lot of the trials, tribulations and storms we go through now, is to make us hit our knees (or keep us there) and turn to Him. Sometimes we have to become prideless, weak, vulnerable to see that we aren't all that, we don't know it all, we can't fix it all, and that we need Him. I pray that it does happen and conviction does get a hold of the sinners and they turn to Him. Well, this definitely didn't go the way I thought it would and I'm sure I repeated myself and jumped all over, but it's what's on my heart. SALVATION.
