No other name

 ”Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.”“

‭‭Acts‬ ‭4‬:‭12‬ 

The world will try to tell you there are many ways to heaven but the Bible is clear…only Jesus can provide salvation. Make sure you and your loved ones are clear on this!

Make it a habit!

 ”I will bless the Lord at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth.“

‭‭Psalms‬ ‭34‬:‭1‬ ‭

God is worthy of continuous praise, honor, and glory. May we make it a habit to do so in our lives!

Separation

 A quote from Paul Washer that followers of Christ need to heed!

Today in our churches there is a silence on separation from the world. The Scriptures are not silent. They demand from us an answer. "Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness?" -- 2 Corinthians 6:14

We must be in the world to share the love of Christ but not to share the ways of the world!

Do you know?

 The Words of Jesus: “ ”And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent.“”

‭‭John‬ ‭17‬:‭3‬ ‭

Do you know God and Jesus? Not just believe in but know? Essential for eternal life!

Interesting!

 Satan's Beatitudes:

  1. Blessed are those who are too tired, too busy, too distracted to spend even an hour once a week with their fellow Christians - they are my best workers.
  2. Blessed are those Christians who wait to be asked and expect to be thanked -I can use them.
  3. Blessed are the touchy who stop going to church - they are my missionaries.
  4. Blessed are the troublemakers - they shall be called my children.
  5. Blessed are the complainers -I'm all ears to them.
  6. Blessed are those who are bored with the minister's mannerisms & mistakes -for they get nothing out of his sermons.
  7. Blessed is the church member who expects to be invited to his own church - for he's a problem instead of the solution.
  8. Blessed are those who gossip -for they shall cause strife and division which is pleasing to me.
  9. Blessed are those who are easily offended - for they wil soon get angry and quit.
  10. Blessed are those who do not give the offering to carry on God's work - for they are my helpers.
  11. Blessed is he who professes to love God but hates his brother & sister - for he is my friend.
  12. Blessed are you who, when you read this and think it is about other people and none of these could possibly apply to you - I've got you too!

A ransom

 ”For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many.”“

‭‭Mark‬ ‭10‬:‭45‬ ‭

Chew on this today….Jesus gave His life as a ransom for your sin! Thank you Lord Jesus!

Who ya hanging with?

  "Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness?" -- 2 Corinthians 6:14

God is very clear in scripture we need to spend the majority of our time with believers. The time we spend with unbelievers should be sharing with them the love of God and His plan of salvation. Spending much time with unbelievers may result in them pulling you away from the walk with Hod that He desires! 

Think about who you spend time with…does it match up with God’s Word? If not make some changes.
