Subject: Invite Jesus into you LIFE, not HEART... |
Bible Note: CDBJ, All I know sir is that we are commanded to Love God with all our Heart and our Soul and our Mind and all of our strength. The Bible may not express that we have to say these exact words "please come into my heart" but many passages in the Bible state that God, Jesus, the Word must be believed in our Heart, with all of our heart, and must enter our heart. It’s pretty clear that we need to Believe in our Heart (not the organ as Centurian nonsensically talks about) and confess with our mouth. 1 cor 2:8-9 says "....the wisdom which none of the rulers of this age has understood; for if they had understood it they would not have crucified the Lord of glory; 9 but just as it is written, "THINGS WHICH EYE HAS NOT SEEN AND EAR HAS NOT HEARD, AND which HAVE NOT ENTERED THE HEART OF MAN, ALL THAT GOD HAS PREPARED FOR THOSE WHO LOVE HIM." We are told in 1 Pet 3:15 "but sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts, always being ready to make a defense to everyone who asks you to give an account for the hope that is in you, yet with gentleness and reverence" Col 3:15 " let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts..." Rom 10 8-9 which was mentioned in a previous post “But what does it say? "THE WORD IS NEAR YOU, IN YOUR MOUTH AND IN YOUR HEART"--that is, the word of faith which we are preaching 9 that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved; we must also have a repentant heart as in Rom 2:5 Acts 8:37 "And Philip said, "If you believe with all your heart, you may." And he answered and said, "I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God."] Rom 10:10 for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation.
