I couldn’t claim any impressive record of material success. I am nothing and continue to be so until my departure from this realm. I led my family to Christ, and I’m proud of that. It is my greatest achievement: to meet my family in heaven forever!

Powerful Faith in God

How powerful is your faith in God? For the Bible says that your faith, if it is scriptural, is confident that God knows and hears you. Observe 1 John 5:13-15 NASB:These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life. This is the confidence which we have before Him, that, if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests which we have asked from Him.” Your faith therefore is more precious than anything else here on earth, for by it you will “know that you have eternal life” and that God “hears us in whatever we ask,” according to His will. From these great truths, you can have only one conclusion: your faith in God is replete with power! You are therefore nothing more than a bundle of divine power.

Jesus Christ said that He is the Giver of life, for He is the Life. That is the meaning of Christian life. Jesus our Lord is the Life, He is our Life. Observe John 10:27-28: “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow Me; and I give eternal life to them, and they shall never perish; and no one shall snatch them out of My hand.” We are complete in Christ in this life and beyond. (cf. John 15:5) A Christian life is a life of hope and victory; a life of divine peace and joy. The Bible contains true life stories of a prostitute who got changed or of a resurrected dead man.

Salvation Through Faith in Christ

In her lifetime, Gadaria had all the opportunities to know Christ and His offer of free eternal life through faith in His atoning blood. But Gadaria did not seek the face of Christ in a way Mary Magdalene searched and waited for the risen Jesus at His tomb. Gadaria didn’t have the love of the truth; her deception by the devil had strengthened her grip on a false doctrine until her death—a doctrine that the money given to the Church through the priest can buy salvation and eternal life!

Second Birth Needed for Salvation

March 22, 2020November 25, 2012 by Jun P. Espina

The term born again is prone to wild misuse. Its meaning is almost always clothed with mockery. Our Lord Jesus, seeing its future distortion by His enemies, spent eighteen long verses with Nicodemus in John chapter three in order that His teaching concerning man’s salvation through the second birth be made crystal clear.

The Lord’s church needs Spirit-appointed, Spirit-filled, and “poured-out” leaders who are considered faithful and more interested in Christ than in “Greek.”
