Human Responsibility to Believe in Christ

human responsibility believe christ

We have a human responsibility to enter God’s kingdom and live in heaven forever. And that responsibility is our personal task to believe in Christ Jesus, our Lord and Savior. It is the essence of John 3:16, the most quoted Scripture: “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever BELIEVES in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.”

Real Trust is the Result of Genuine Faith

[T]rue faith produces real trust or dependence upon something or someone. In this piece, let us discuss our real trust upon Christ and our systems that form part of our daily life. What is the difference between faith and trust? Well, trust or confidence is the act of faith. You may have faith in your father’s swimming ability, for example, but you’ll never trust your life to him in the sea without a life jacket.

The following poetical snippet was originally written in my Tumblr page. It is plain and no hidden meanings from the viewpoint of the universal Christian experience.

This prayerfulness is an ABOMINATION to the Lord. Observe the first part of the verse: “The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD…” It is no surprise to us that even the priests and “pastors” of the Christian faith may have made abominable prayers to God, for God’s word in Proverbs 15:8 states that “the prayer of the upright is His delight.” Yes, you and I may have prayed unto the Father in heaven a prayer that was not pleasing to Him.
