One of the steps in order to be Saved is
to believe Jesus is the Christ.
- I
JOHN 5:1: Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ
is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him
also
that is begotten of him.
So what is being Born of God?
- I
JOHN 4:7: Beloved, let us love one another: for love
is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.
So if you love one another and you believe Jesus is the Christ, then
you
are Born of God. So then it sounds logical to say if a person is Saved
than
that person is Born of God.
- I
JOHN 3:9: Whosoever is born of God DOES NOT COMMIT
SIN; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin,
because he is
born of God.
Whoever has been Born of God
does not knowingly and willingly sin. If you
believe Jesus is the Christ you are Born of God and if your Born of God
you
do not knowingly and willingly sin. So we can truthfully say, If you
believe
in Christ you do not knowingly and willingly sin.
- I
JOHN 3:6: Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever
sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.
- I
JOHN 5:18: We know that whosoever is born of God
sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that
wicked
one toucheth him not.
- JOHN
8:34: Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say
unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.
Arn't we to be servants to Jesus and not
to sin?
- ROMANS
6:6: Knowing this, that our old man is crucified
with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not
serve sin.
Lets see if
i got that right. John
8:34
says
if you sin
your a slave of sin, and Romans
6:6 says we should no longer be slaves of sin.
So in other words,
we are to no longer sin.
- ROMANS
6:20: For when ye were the servants of sin,
ye were free from righteousness. or when you were yet in
your sins
you were not righteous.
- ROMANS
6:17: But God be thanked, that ye were
the servants of sin, but ye have OBEYED from the heart that form of
doctrine
(Bible) which
was delivered you.18: Being then made free from sin, ye became the
servants
of righteousness.
You are freed from sin, when
you first OBEY the Word of God, Once you have
OBEYED the Word of God then you are free from sin, thus being under
GRACE
(see Chapter on
Grace)
- ROMANS
6:16: Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves
servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin
unto
death, or of obedience unto righteousness?
If you continue
to sin,
your wages will be death (Hell). But if you continue in obedience,
your
wages will be life eternal (Heaven)
How do you know if you know
Jesus Christ, and how do you know if someone
else knows Jesus Christ?
- I
JOHN 2:3: And hereby we do know that we know him,
if we keep his commandments. 4: He that saith, I know him, and keepeth
not
his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
Anyone who says I am Saved
and keepeth not His commandments is a liar and
the truth is not in that person. Whosoever saith with their lips, I am
Saved
and I am going to Heaven and yet do not which is written in the Word of
God,
is a liar and will not see Heaven. Only those who obey the Word of God
will
enter into Heaven. People, i do not say this, But the Word of God says
this,
Do you not believe God ?
Those who keep His Commandments, Know Jesus Christ. Those who say they
know Jesus Christ and do not keep His Commandments are LIARS, they
claim they know Him, but their deeds are evil and wicked. What are His
Commandments? To believe on Jesus and to Love One Another. Woe to this
generation which are quick to say with their mouths "I know Jesus" yet
they fail to Love One Another, these are LIARS and do not know the
TRUTH.
- LUKE
6:46: And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not
the things which I say?
- MATTHEW
7:22: Many will say to me in that day, Lord,
Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out
devils?
and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23: And then will I profess
unto
them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.(sin)
Woe
to this generation indeed, for who does not call Jesus "Lord" and yet
still continues to knowingly and willingly commit iniquity, and they
know full well it is sinful but freely chooses to commit the sin
anyways.
Who according to Scriptures are the children of the devil?
- 1Jn_3:10
In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the
devil: whosoever doeth not righteousness is not of God, neither he that
loveth not his brother.
Anyone, who does
not do that which is Righteous, is according to this Inspired by God
Scritpure is a child of the devil. Easy really, those who do
righteousness are children of God, those who willingly do
unrighteousness are children of the devil. Which the following verse
confirms this teaching:
- 1Jn_3:8
He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the
beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he
might destroy the works of the devil.
So
if a person looks to Jesus for His Strength and Power against every
temptation, Jesus can help a person destroy sin out of that persons
life. Tell me. What sin do you do that you can't cease from? YOU CAN
cease from it, look to Jesus to help you.
Those who believe
Jesus is the Son of God are Born of God. Scriptures teaches this. Those
who are Born of God does not knowingly and willingly commit sins.
Scriptures teaches that as well. Now it is not to hard to understand
why Jesus said narrow and difficult is the path that leads to life
everlasting and a very few will actually find it. Too many people say
this path is impossible. But True Christians know that with Jesus, all
things are possible.
