The God I know!

God takes a personal interest in all of us. He died once for all, for each of us.

We all felt like we’re a lost cause at one time, we let people down including ourselves, we have failed miserably, but Christ never gave up on us, the Bible says He came to seek and save those who are lost. Of which I was,once.

Right now you need to know that if your reading this there is hope, all is not lost, no one is beyond the reach of God.

No one!

We have a King who values us enough, that He laid down His life for us, He patiently waits on us to hear His voice and come answer His call on our life.

Most people who don't believe in God really don't want to believe in a God who is angry, always waiting to catch them doing something wrong, and who delights in punishing people and sending them to hell.

That is not who God is,

God is not an angry God, He is holy, righteous, He is just, merciful and mighty, long-suffering, patient and loving. His holiness holds us to a standard, and there are consequences for our choices, God gives us the grace to fail, more importantly, He gives us the grace to repent get back up and walk with Him.

This is what I know from my life as a child of God. If God would strike anyone down for their sins, I would be first, but He gives grace upon grace to each of us. The same grace God gives me through Christ, He is extending to you. Every Christian lives in the grace of God, we can not live without it.

This is why Jesus came He has done what no-one else could do, He reached through the darkness and snatched me from the fringe of Hell, more importantly, He has His hands stretched out to rescue you. He has done everything needed to take our judgment, our punishment, we must simply grab His hand, and come to Him as our Lord and Savior.

My Heavenly Father loved the world so much that He was willing to send His Son, Jesus, to die for us. I believe in a God who loves you more than you could ever imagine.

As a matter of fact, He loved us first, He loves us most, that while we were His enemies Christ died for us.

Jesus judges righteously, and He does not condemn man, man condemns Himself by rejecting Him.

Our enemy deceived mankind and man still believes the enemy, therefore mankind deceives themselves and condemns himself, see there is only one way to get to my Father, and He waits and beckons you now to come through Jesus Christ.

That is my God, my Heavenly Father, that is Jesus, not the lie many have believed.

God’s word says this :

“For God loved the world in this way: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. Anyone who believes in him is not condemned, but anyone who does not believe is already condemned, because he has not believed in the name of the one and only Son of God. This is the judgment: The light has come into the world, and people loved darkness rather than the light because their deeds were evil. For everyone who does evil hates the light and avoids it, so that his deeds may not be exposed. But anyone who lives by the truth comes to the light, so that his works may be shown to be accomplished by God.” John‬ ‭3:16-21‬ ‭CSB‬‬

“What should we say then? Should we continue in sin so that grace may multiply? Absolutely not! How can we who died to sin still live in it? Or are you unaware that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? Therefore we were buried with him by baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, so we too may walk in newness of life. For if we have been united with him in the likeness of his death, we will certainly also be in the likeness of his resurrection. For we know that our old self was crucified with him so that the body ruled by sin might be rendered powerless so that we may no longer be enslaved to sin, since a person who has died is freed from sin. Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him, because we know that Christ, having been raised from the dead, will not die again. Death no longer rules over him. For the death he died, he died to sin once for all time; but the life he lives, he lives to God. So, you too consider yourselves dead to sin and alive to God in Christ Jesus. Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, so that you obey its desires. And do not offer any parts of it to sin as weapons for unrighteousness. But as those who are alive from the dead, offer yourselves to God, and all the parts of yourselves to God as weapons for righteousness. For sin will not rule over you, because you are not under the law but under grace. What then? Should we sin because we are not under the law but under grace? Absolutely not! Don’t you know that if you offer yourselves to someone as obedient slaves, you are slaves of that one you obey — either of sin leading to death or of obedience leading to righteousness? But thank God that, although you used to be slaves of sin, you obeyed from the heart that pattern of teaching to which you were handed over, and having been set free from sin, you became enslaved to righteousness.

But now, since you have been set free from sin and have become enslaved to God, you have your fruit, which results in sanctification — and the outcome is eternal life! For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”Romans‬ ‭6:1-18, 22-23‬ ‭CSB‬‬

“And you were dead in your trespasses and sins in which you previously lived according to the ways of this world, according to the ruler of the power of the air, the spirit now working in the disobedient. We too all previously lived among them in our fleshly desires, carrying out the inclinations of our flesh and thoughts, and we were by nature children under wrath as the others were also. But God, who is rich in mercy, because of his great love that he had for us, made us alive with Christ even though we were dead in trespasses. You are saved by grace! He also raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavens in Christ Jesus, so that in the coming ages he might display the immeasurable riches of his grace through his kindness to us in Christ Jesus. For you are saved by grace through faith, and this is not from yourselves; it is God’s gift — not from works, so that no one can boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared ahead of time for us to do.” Ephesians‬ ‭2:1-10‬ ‭CSB‬‬

“Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God, and everyone who loves the Father also loves the one born of him. This is how we know that we love God’s children: when we love God and obey his commands. For this is what love for God is: to keep his commands. And his commands are not a burden, because everyone who has been born of God conquers the world. This is the victory that has conquered the world: our faith. Who is the one who conquers the world but the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God? Jesus Christ — he is the one who came by water and blood, not by water only, but by water and by blood. And the Spirit is the one who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth. For there are three that testify: the Spirit, the water, and the blood — and these three are in agreement. If we accept human testimony, God’s testimony is greater, because it is God’s testimony that he has given about his Son. The one who believes in the Son of God has this testimony within himself. The one who does not believe God has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony God has given about his Son. And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. The one who has the Son has life. The one who does not have the Son of God does not have life. I have written these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life.” 1 John‬ ‭5:1-13‬ ‭CSB‬‬​

“But you, dear friends, remember what was predicted by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ. They told you, “In the end time there will be scoffers living according to their own ungodly desires.” These people create divisions and are worldly, not having the Spirit. But you, dear friends, as you build yourselves up in your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves in the love of God, waiting expectantly for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ for eternal life. Have mercy on those who waver; save others by snatching them from the fire; have mercy on others but with fear, hating even the garment defiled by the flesh. Now to him who is able to protect you from stumbling and to make you stand in the presence of his glory, without blemish and with great joy, to the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, power, and authority before all time, now and forever. Amen.” Jude‬ ‭1:17-25‬ ‭CSB‬‬
