#Change,#Turn,#Truth,#Holiness,#Salvation,#Jesus,#thechurch

There is a lot going on in the United States and the world right now.  The weather is different.  There is unrest in some of our cities.  A whole university closed down over night leaving students in limbo.
Earth quakes in divers places.  The Bible speaks to all of this.

It is time to seek the Lord and be saved!

I know some get tired of hearing it.  "the same thing over and over and over again."  I know.  But, ETERNITY IS A LONG TIME!!!! WHERE WILL YOU SPEND IT?

When a person dies, the only way their soul will rest is if they die saved.  If they are not saved when they die, hell will be the final resting place.

What is saved?  Being saved is not going to Church.  Being saved is not reading the Bible.  Being saved is not quoting scriptures.

"Jesus answered, verily, verily I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God (John 3:5).  "He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved." ( Mark 16:16).   "Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost (Acts 2:38).  Being saved is repenting (turning away) from a life of sin, seeking the Lord for forgiveness for the sins, getting baptized in Jesus Name for the remission (payment) of those sins, and then getting filled with the Holy Ghost so that you have the power to stay away from a life of sin.  When Jesus frees a soul from sin, love and joy fill that soul.  That soul falls in love with Jesus and wants to serve Him.  Then going to Church becomes like breathing.....you have to be there.   Reading the Bible becomes like breathing.....you want to spend time with Jesus.  Even in the natural, a person finds time for the things  he or she loves.  Jesus said in John 14:15  "if you love me, keep my commandments."

Once the will changes, the mind will follow ("For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he" - Proverbs 23:7)

Some will not go to Church unless it is a 'special occasion'.  They do not go to Bible study to learn about Jesus.  They do not go to pray meeting to seek the face of God.  They do not attend worship services.  Still drinking alcohol.  Still smoking.  Still chasing men or women or both.  Refusing to come out of a life of sin.   How can one still drink and with the same mouth offer to pray for someone?  And, it has nothing to do with one sin being bigger or smaller than the other.  In the eyes of the Lord, sin is sin.  And, all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God.  Therefore, all if mankind needs Jesus Christ, the Saviour of the world.

Before time runs out on you, repent and get saved.  Eternity is a long time.

"Blessed are they that do His commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city (Revelation 22:14).

#Call Jesus,#Cry out,#Jesus, Deliverer

If you call Jesus right, he will hear you and come see about you.  Ask blind Bartimaeus. The scriptures says in St. Mark 10:46-52 that Jesus, His disciples and a great number of people were leaving Jericho.  Blind Bartimaeus heard that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by.  Blind Bartimaeus could not see.  He did not know what Jesus looked like.  He only knew what he heard. Blind Bartimaeus began to cry out to Jesus, "Jesus, thou son of David have mercy on me".  When the people tried to stop him, he cried out the more so, "Thou son of David, have mercy on me".  He did no let people keep him from calling on the Lord.  He must have heard about the miracles, healing, deliverance that took place at the hand of the Lord. Jesus heard the cry of Blind Bartimaeus.  It was the sound of the cry that revealed to the Lord that Blind Bartimaeus was calling out in a blind state, but yet believing something would happen if he could get the attention of Jesus of Nazareth. .  He w

#A Lot of Singing,#Shouting,#Tongue Talking,#Playing

Music was one of the things that drew me to want to go to Church when I was not saved.   I use to love to hear and 'feel' the spirit of the songs.  Back then, the singers would sing unto the Lord.  They were not paid to sing.  They were not seeking recording contracts.  They would sing unto the Lord.  The would sing about the Lord.  So, when one went to hear the singers, your soul got touched whether you wanted it to or not. I can remember going to the Holiness Churches.  The praise was different too.  When the Saints praised God back then, it was real.  When the Saints did dance 'in the Spirit', it was real.  You could feel it.  There was always this 'presence' in the Holiness Church that I could not explain....then.  But that presence kind of held you captive, whether you wanted it o or not.  And, sometimes Church would go on for hours, but no one cared.  And, if one of the Saints said something to you that the Lord gave them for you, you knew it and felt it

#Bible,#Word of God,#Leave It Alone

"For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book."   Revelations 22:18-19 The scriptures are plain.  The Bible is not to be played with.  The words written in it are to be taught and preached unto the soul of men.  To add to the what the Lord has already said will bring plagues upon man kind.  To take away from what the word says, will cause a person's part in the holy city (Heaven) to be removed.  So, why would anyone try and change what the Bible says?  Cute sayings do not lead a soul to salvation.  It takes the Word preached and taught.  The Bible says specifically that the word is God ( John 1:1 ).   The Bible says specifical
