OUR VIEW OF SALVATION

GREETINGS IN  THE NAME OF JESUS:


BE OF GOOD CHEER!  We all consider ourselves to be a part of the body of Christ DON'T WE?   Or is that only when we are standing in a large group of people who may not understand if we spoke the truth?

I wonder if we might talk openly for just a moment about the huge elephant in the room called TRUE CHRISTIANITY?  There becomes a giant problem when we no longer follow the simple truth about God's word about living out the Christian life after having confessed Jesus as Lord and Savior.  Please don't look around the room at others while I am directly talking to you!
  I know deep in your heart you want to live as close as you can to the things that Jesus came to teach, so why are you constantly following around the ideas and principals of someone other than God?  I am having to ask that question of many different people today because as long as we cling to the traditions of the men...no matter who those men maybe we are in direct danger of being deceived either by others or by ourselves.  That causes me to ask the question When are we in the most danger of being deceived? The answer is when we can no longer go to Christ as a little child!

   When we can no longer trust God or be a part of His plans for our lives we cannot share in that wide-eyed joy of discovery in Christ that allows us to be a part of one another without fear. That does not mean we have to act like small children or approach God in an immature way, we already do that by the ways we fight over the things that mean nothing at all to God.  The distractions are never-ending when it comes to this worlds interference in our attempt to understand the truth about salvation because if we did we would not spend our time and efforts in pleasing this temporary life.

 The guilty finger of this world is pointed at the spiritual life saying" IT CANNOT BE REAL" when all along it is the things that are coming that are the most real you will ever know because they are eternal.  It is our childlike faith in what God tells us is true that He looks for in us; not our empty child-like wisdom that is fostered by this world.

  Paul said that our view currently of the truth is like looking through a mirror that is dirty and dark. We can not see clearly what the truth is by the ways it is presented to us by this world. Someday soon, however, we will be face to face with our creator, and we will know in the same way as we are known.  I hope this helps you to rethink your personal view of Salvation. May you richlly bless God through your life in Him.
