Greetings JMR! One of the things that seperates Christianity from every other religion in the world is that we can be certain of our position with God. Consider the following Scriptures: 1) John 3:16 - ‘‘For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." 2) John 3:36 - "Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God’s wrath remains on him.” 3) John 5:24 - "I tell you the truth, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed over from death to life." 4) John 10:9 - "I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved. He will come in and go out, and find pasture. 5) John 6:40 - "For my Father’s will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.” 6) Acts 2:21 - "And everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." 7) Romans 10:13 - for, ‘‘Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” Friend, I'm not trying to overwhelm you with verses, but I just wanted to show you from Scripture the promise of God. It says, "Everyone will." It says, "Whosoever will." It never says, Whosoever might." The "Good News" of the Gospel is that we can have absolute assurance of our salvation because it was paid for by Christ Himself and not earned by us. I don't know where you are spiritually, but if you have prayed and asked God to forgive you, He has. At that point, you can be 100 percent certain where you will spend eternity. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

Interesting. I don't have the time that you have to cite biblical verses, nor am I that familiar with the Bible, but I did come across this verse, Gal. 1:3, which states, Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who gave Himself for our sins, that He MIGHT deliver us out of this present evil age, according to the WILL of our God and Father, to whom be the glory forevermore. Amen. How do you explain this? |

Dear JMR, The "Might" is that we 'might' be forgiven by accepting Christ as Lord and Savior, and by accepting Him "who gave Himself for our sins.." If we accept him as Lord and His sacrifice on the cross, then he will "deliver us out of this present evil age". This deliverance from evil is "according to the WILL of our God and Father". The only thing that we must do is to accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior by faith and we can rest assured that He will forgive us of our sins. No resources needed, Nolan |
