| Paid in full. PAID IN FULL What wonderful words. Paid in FULL.... MY sins were NAILED TO THE CROSS and I bear them NO MORE... all because of three simple words....IT IS FINISHED. MY friend, is it finished for YOU? Have you accepted this payment for YOUR sin? If not.. DO IT NOW, TODAY We are not promised a tomorrow and look at what God says in His word about this: And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: Heb 9:27 If it is not finished for YOU... please read post 530 to hear those wonderful words...IT IS FINISHED! Just as I am without one Plea but that Thy blood was shed for me and that Thou bidd'st me come to Thee O lamb of God, I come. I come. Just as I am and waiting not, to rid my soul of one dark blot, to Thee whose Blood can clease each spot. O Lamb of God. I come. I come Just as I am tho' tossed about, with many a conflict many a doubt, fightings within and fears without O Lamb of God I come, I come. Just as I am Thou wilt receive, wilt welcome pardon clease relieve because Thy promise I believe O Lamb of God I come, I come Just as I am Thy love unknown Hath broken every barrier down Now to Thine Yea Thine alone O Lamb of God I come. I come. As you read these words...think... really think how AWESOME these words are.... JUST AS I AM HE does not want us to clean ourselves up first. We can NEVER do a good enough job. My friend, If you are soiled with the stains of sin come JUST AS YOU ARE and HE shall make you WHITER THEN SNOW! Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. Isaiah 1:18 |

| I would like to ask you a question now Are you really sure of being saved? I don’t mean what your church or traditions says. We all have an obligation towards ourselves to seek the truth for ourselves. Our most precious possession is our “inner being” and we do have to take care of eternal life. While there is still time for us to consider lets look at scriptures what we need to be saved. Jesus paid the price for everybody who believes in Him. Its for up to us if we want it or not. John 3:16 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. The world that God loved is not the “world” but the people inside the world. The next sentence clear this with WHOSOEVER, meaning any one – no matter your colour, your size, your language or your state of sin. You can be the worst of the most horrible sinners, and then you still will be classified as WHOSOEVER. BUT YOU have to believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God Almighty. We have to believe that God send His only Son to die for our sins. Acts 16:31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. To believe in something calls for action. If we do believe that Jesus is the Son of God, we will repent from our sin. The change of the mind produces a change of the way. WE HAVE TO STOP DOING THE WRONGS. There is a great deal to be done, TO MAKE WAY FOR CHRIST INTO OUR SOUL, and nothing is more needful than the discovery of sin, and a conviction that we cannot be saved by our own righteousness. The way of sin and Satan is a crooked way THAT LEADS TO DESTRUCTION AND DEATH; but to prepare a way for Christ, the paths must be made straight; it’s a life of self-denial, and contempt of the world. Acts 2:38. Then Peter said unto them; Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the me of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. Mark 16:16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. Repentance calls for obedience: - You cannot repent from your wrong ways without believing that Jesus Christ, Son of God, died for your sins. You have to believe in Jesus Christ. When believe in something you will do the works that goes with the believe. To believe in Christ the Savior you have to be baptized – not as a baby but as an adult. People always ask when is the right time to be baptized: - As soon as you hear the word:- That God send His Son Jesus Christ to die for YOUR sins: - understand it and believe the Word, then its time for you to be baptized. We need to be immerging in water ONCE – IN THE NAME OF JESUS. Neither God nor the Holy Spirit died for our sins and with being immerged in water, we symbolized that we are one with His death on the cross and one in His resurrection. After repentance and the baptism, God gives us a gift – The Holy Spirit. We need the Holy Spirit to teach and guide us through life. Whoever you are, I do care for you and would love you to accepted Christ as your Savior. If you want to write to me , just click on the link "Do you need help" - Alta van den Berg |
