Apologetics
Believe In Myself?
Sure, you know who you are, and what you believe in, and you know that you are a part of life here on this earth, right? But what else?
What else is there?
What do you believe your future holds? Do you believe that through your own power you’re going to live beyond death on this earth? Does it matter to you? I hope it does!
Familiarity of the Words and Principles that are written in the Bible are becoming more and more scarce in this world. Many don’t even know if the Bible contains truth or not.
What do you say? How do you know the Bible can be trusted and accepted as truth? Well, if you don’t read it, then you don’t know, do you? You can’t save yourself from death, but read the Bible and seek true life, and if you come to know and love God, then you will indeed live. Read the New Testament, start today and live.
Trust In Myself?
Are you trusting in yourself, because you know your own abilities, and believe that you, and you alone control your own destiny?
What if tomorrow on your way to work or shopping you were involved in an accident, by no fault of your own, and you are killed?
Do you have control of the situation then? What’s next? Do you know that your own personal beliefs and how you live your life now are the deciding factor for whether or not you go to heaven or hell?
So, truly, you do decide your future, but you don’t decide when you are going to change destinations.
So, are you ready for what is yet to come? There is only one way to know for sure. Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth and the life, no one comes to the Father except through me.” (John 14:6) Have you found the life Jesus offers? Jesus shows us heaven.
Seeing Beyond Myself?
Who do you live to please? Everything in our culture tells us it’s all about me, and my own happiness. Is it truly about pleasing myself, or is there more to life? Do you have a purpose? If we have no purpose, then our efforts on earth are futile. Romans 2:8 ‘But for those who are self-seeking and who reject the truth and follow evil, there will be wrath and anger.’ Read all of Romans chapter 1 and 2. God has a purpose for you, and it is to come to know and love the Lord God, through Jesus Christ and to share His Love with others. God’s wrath is going to come upon all those who remain Godless, upon the one who’s god is not the one true God.(i.e. money, job, sex, drugs, family, the world) Where does God rate in your life? Do you live to please yourself or God? It matters! ‘Seek first the kingdom of God, and all things shall be given unto you.’
The Backside has the following:
Spring is a time of refreshment, a time of new beginnings, a time to reflect on all that God has given us, and all that He has done in our lives.
A time for thankfulness for everything. For the birds of the air that sing so sweetly, and the seeds of the ground which produce our food and nourish our bodies, for the love of family, which He manifested, and for the gift of life, which comes from Him alone.
A time to reflect too on our own relationship with Him (God). Easter and spring is the time when we are reminded each year of the price that was paid for our sins, that Jesus came to pay, so that we can be made right with God. Have you accepted in your heart what Jesus did for you?
If you have, then have you been thankful lately for what He did on the Cross for you? Have you been thankful for your Blessings?
If you haven't accepted Jesus, and the price He paid, then isn't it about time you did?
It's all about love! It's about God's love for us, and His desire that
we should love Him in return.
Do you love God? Does He know it by the life you live?
Do you know if you will indeed live eternal life in heaven one day? If you dont know for sure, then isn't it about time you found out?
It is said that over 80% of the people in our nation believe there is a God. But believing there is a God won't get you into heaven. Not even going to church guarantees your home to be found one day in heaven.
You Must believe in your heart, and confess with your mouth that Jesus Christ is your Lord and Savior. You must confess and repent of your sins. Until you do this, you cannot have a relationship with our Holy God, and you cannot be called a child of God.
Then, put God first in your life and see what changes. Be obedient and apply in your life the principles found in the Bible. Then be thankful, for God so loved you, that He gave His Son for you, and Jesus has risen, conquering death, and Hades to give you life.(John 3:16)
Believe, Repent, Accept, and Live!

Ephesians 3:16-21 (NIV) I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge-- that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.
