For taking your time to study remain blessed
TOPIC: HOW TO RECEIVE ETERNAL LIFE AND PRESERVE IT. SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 16
TEXT: JOHN 3:3-21
KEY VERSE: “But if the wicked will turn from all his
sins that he hath committed, and keep all my statutes, and do that which is
lawful and right, he shall surely live, he shall not die.” (Ezekiel 18:21).
The
way of salvation from sin and hell fire is clearly revealed in the scripture.
If you follow the path of salvation shown in the scripture, you will surely be
saved. God has never predestined you to eternal damnation. He is merciful to
you. Therefore, for your salvation from sin and hell fire, firstly, you must accept
that you have sinned against God through disobeying His commandments. You have
done many evil things against God, against yourself and your fellow men. By
virtue of your sins and wicked deeds, which may be many or few, you are justly
condemned by God and are in the number of those doomed for everlasting
destruction in hell fire. “ The
wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.” Psalm
9:17.
However,
our Lord is a merciful God who freely forgives the sin of those that repent and
seek His forgiveness. Confess your sins to Him, repent of them and plead with
Him to forgive you, “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our
sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness” (1John 1:9).
Jesus
Christ is the only One that can save from sin. You cannot stop sinning by your
power without Him. Those who make New Year Resolutions will always go back to
their sin because they lack the power to transform themselves. Welcome Jesus
into your life to give you the power to overcome sin. When Jesus comes into
your life, He will save you from sin and give you the power of righteousness.
Jesus is the universal Saviour from sin. When you give your life to Jesus
Christ, your sins will be forgiven and you will be given a new life from God.
Your name will be entered into the Book of Life in heaven. Surely, you will not
want to start committing new sins and get your name removed from the Book of
Life.
After
salvation experience you must determine to continue in Christ by living a
righteous and holy life each day of your life till you are called home. Make
sure you have a good Bible. You will need to study your Bible regularly and
pray always to God for His grace to live the victorious Christian life. The
Holy Spirit will guide you into all truth, obey Him. Do not be afraid of man
and be not ashamed of following Jesus. Dissociate from evil friends,
relationships and associations. Doing these will preserve you for eternity. For
this is good and acceptable in
the sight of God our Saviour; Who will have all men to be saved, and to come
unto the knowledge of the truth. (1 Timothy 2:3-4).
Thought for the
Day: Are you saved from sin? Are you truly born
again?
Song for the
Day:
Thank you for saving me, thank you my Lord.
