\"\"Let’s get something straight.\u00a0 Jesus Christ is God, is the Savior, no doubts, no ifs, no ands, and no compromises.<\/strong>\u00a0 Anyone who tells you any differently is lying to you.<\/span><\/p>\n

That having been said, you might ask, “How can you be so sure?”\u00a0 Well, Jesus was.\u00a0 So sure, that in John 11 He promised to raise the dead.\u00a0 And not only raise the dead, but He promised that those who believed in Him, trusted Him, accepted Him, embraced Him in a personal connected relationship of Savior to the one needing to be saved, that after this life, we would live. Death would not be the final note, but death would be defeated.\u00a0 The sting of death, the victory of death is gone forever for those who are in Christ.<\/span><\/p>\n

What does it say about those who aren’t in Christ?\u00a0 It means there is no hope; absolutely nothing but desolation; a future so horrible that the Bible describes it as hell.\u00a0 Now, can this be true?\u00a0 As true as the other.\u00a0 The opposites do exist.\u00a0 That’s why it is imperative for the simple gospel message to be heard<\/strong>, and people be given a choice and a chance to receive it or to reject it.<\/span><\/p>\n

As a Christian, I can accept people saying “no” to Christ.\u00a0 It’s their right.\u00a0 As a matter of fact, it’s their right between them and God; not me.\u00a0 I can’t save you.\u00a0 I can’t even save myself.\u00a0 I can’t save the world, and I don’t need to save Jesus.\u00a0 But here it is: Jesus promises the impossible.\u00a0 Life – eternal life – and though we die in this life, we awaken in a place called Heaven. A future in eternity, better and more glorious than anything we can ever imagine.\u00a0 That is something to not be missed, nor can it be compromised.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
