We can do what makes us happy, and fulfill all of our worldly and fleshly desires, but we will ultimately die and go to hell if our faith isn't in Jesus. Because of the sin that we've committed, we would've had to go to hell. But Jesus died for you and I out of love for us, so we didn't have to go to hell for our sin, but so we could be forgiven, and be able to go to heaven through Jesus. My friend, I can't promise all the pleasure and happiness, that comes from doing whatever you want, and fulfilling your worldly desires, but I can promise that if you put your faith in Jesus, wherever he places you, and whatever he has for you, it ultimately is for good, and He will help you. He will NEVER forsake or leave you. And ultimately when He comes back, we will be in heaven with Him, for all eternity. We don't have the temporary pleasure that comes from sinful desires of the world, but we have everlasting joy from our God, who loves us so much.
Who is Jesus?
Jesus was a perfect man (as well as the Son of God). He came into this world, although he was in heaven and He decided to live this life that he did, so we could be saved. He showed love to others, he cared for them, he healed those who needed healing. He felt emotions, as we did. He faced temptation, although never gave into it. He never sinned. He was perfect. Yet he was crucified. He payed the penalty of death, that WE as sinners should've paid. He died, and on that cross he carried the sins of the world. But 3 days later after his death, he rose again. When he did, he defeated sin and death. He is now in heaven once more, and one day he will return. Jesus offers salvation, and we must have genuine, true faith in him to be saved.
Jesus is THE SAVIOR of the world. All Glory to God!
Romans 10:9 says "If you declare with your mouth, āJesus is Lord,ā and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
So you can see He is the way to be saved. Watching the pinned video can help as well, which I reccomend you do.
Before you do, you should know these 3 things.
1. Don't follow Jesus for some hidden motives. He isn't some "Get rich quick scheme," and he isn't obligated to give you riches, and prosperity. Jesus knows your heart, nothing is hidden from him. I follow Jesus because he died for me to live, and I want to honor him with my life, and know him! When following Jesus, have pure and genuine intentions!
2. Following Jesus is a 100% commitment. You can't have one foot in the world and one with Jesus. It's either you follow him 100%, or not at all. We make mistakes but when you truly follow Jesus, and have true faith, this true faith should be producing good works. We're not saved by works, as were saved by God's grace on us, through faith. But true faith produces these good works! If you have true faith, then you'll walk in the light. 1 John 1:7 says "But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin." Take that to heart.
3. Don't put this off for later. Time is promised to nobody. Truthfully your flesh may intervene and remove the desire to know Jesus, if you decide to put it off for later. Too much can happen. So, act now. Start living truly today! Believe Jesus died for you, and rose again, and Declare Him Lord over your life. Start living for Him today. The pinned video can also help you be saved, and you can pray the prayer to take the first steps with your relationship with God. If you put your faith in Jesus, no matter what happens, through anything and everything, God will be with you. And don't ever forget that He loves you, and in Jesus, NOTHING will ever seperate His love from you.
Prayer: Dear Lord Jesus, please forgive me of my sins. I believe you died on the cross for my sins, and I believe you rose again. I confess that you are my LORD and Savior! Come into my heart. Fill me with your Spirit. Cleanse me and make me new Jesus! Thanks, Amen!
