We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

For the Christian, it’s all about understanding God’s amazing grace and then responding with an eternal attitude of gratitude. It’s God’s grace that motivates us and it’s God’s grace that empowers us to obey Him – obedience not to earn His grace, but obedience that flows from His grace and demonstrates His grace to ourselves and others.

Narrow-minded Christians or is Jesus Christ the ONLY way to heaven? 1. Our fundamental problem with God is our sin. It separates us from His love. In His holiness He is obligated to judge it - now and eternally. ONLY Christ died for the removal of our sin and subsequent forgiveness. 2. Jesus taught it - 'Jesus said to him, ';I am the way, and the truth, and the life; NO ONE comes to the Father, but through ME'' (Jn. 14:6). 3. Of every religious figure, ONLY Christ rose from the dead in the Resurrection and proved His victory over death, the devil and sin. 4. If there were any other way to heaven, why would God send His only Son to die an excruciating death on a cross? 'I do not nullify the grace of God; for if righteousness comes through the Law [doing good works], then Christ died needlessly' (Gal. 2:21). 5. The Bible teaches it - 'And there is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men, by which we must be saved' (Ac. 4:12). Is The ONLY Savior YOUR Savior - evidenced by your confession and lifestyle (Lk. 8:21)?
