Good morning! How are we faithing? Snowmageddon part II! Wow man!
Sometimes the basics of salvation must be preached because some have not ever heard the gospel. I know it blows me away that in this country people have never heard more than blips on the radio and euphemisms. God so loved us that in order for him to be able to dwell with us and our sinful nature, he sent his son to pay for yours and my infractions. He loved us so much that HE endured for our sake. Man, that's a love deeper than I can understand. We are taught by his Word that faith is all we must have. Faith to believe the simple concept that salvation is by grace and not works less anyone can say,"look at me, I am perfect". No one is perfect. No one can earn salvation because grace, by definition, is free. Jesus came to seek and save the lost, you and me. Jesus came to be the carrier of sin for you and me. Jesus loved so perfectly that he gave his life for you and me. Stop with all those ,"you must do this or that to be saved" because faith is all we need and the behavior changes come because of grace and not to earn grace. Have you come to a saving knowledge of Jesus? Is your fate sealed in heaven or have you chosen hell? Your choice but make it now because today is the day of salvation, tomorrow may or may not come.
Pro 30:5-6
Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him. Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.

Joh 3:15-19
That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
Mat 9:13
But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
remember the road crews and emergency workers today...
