JESUS gave us all free will. HE didn’t want a bunch of Christian robots. HE wants us to love HIM and obey HIM and follow HIM from our hearts because then you know it’s real. I chose drugs and alcohol over ever wanting to know JESUS until it was almost too late.
People choose to obey and follow the devil. Their choice. People do anything the devil wants them to do because they choose to be under his command. We have to choose who we want to follow.
Joshua 24:15
“15 And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.”
GOD created everyone with a free will to choose between good and evil. JESUS did show everyone how to live, how to pick between right and wrong. HE gave us HIS Word to read and study and live by it. We all have the responsibility to tell everyone we know and everyone we meet about JESUS and how Awesome HE is. How much HE loves everybody.
We need to get people to church, to home group, to a Bible study so they can make the right decision to follow JESUS.
John 14:6
“Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”
It’s okay to let JESUS run your life and lead you in all things and all your decisions. You can never go wrong following JESUS. The more you obey JESUS you’ll see the Truth. Everything boils down to the choices we make. The choices we make here on earth will determine where we end up forever. Follow JESUS, listen to HIM and you’ll find yourself wanting to be more like HIM.
Matthew 7:21
“ Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.”
We still have choices to make every day of our lives. You can do whatever you wanna do or are you gonna do what JESUS wants us to do to get to heaven. Follow Acts 2:38. HE’S calling us to be HIS. I belong to JESUS and I already won every battle. I’ve defeated the enemy because of what JESUS did for me.
It’s because of JESUS that we love people. That we reach the lost. That we forgive those who done us wrong. That we work for HIM. That we build up treasures in Heaven. That we have Faith as a child and believe every Word that’s written in the Bible.
You can do whatever you wanna do but I’m trusting in JESUS. I’m going to Heaven to be with HIM forever and ever. No more pain no more suffering no more hatred no more hurting no more sadness no more anger no more drama no more negativity.
John 3:3
“Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”
John 3:5
“ Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.”
