THERE IS ONLY ONE WAY TO GOD
1 John 4: 1-3, 14-15 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world. Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God.
1 John 5:10-13, 20 He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son. And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God. And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.
I am writing this blog because of some recent encounters I had with individuals who, unfortunately, do not believe the above scriptures. These individuals say they believe in God; however, they question the validity of Jesus being the Son of God and our Redeemer. They have accepted the philosophy, words, and false teachings of those who, according to the Word, have the spirit of the antichrist and spirit of error. Jesus, Peter, and Paul warned believers about false prophets and teachers who would arise and deceive individuals, particularly as the time of the rapture draws closer, and this is what I am presently witnessing.
As of today, most scholars estimate that there are about 4,000 to 4,300 religions worldwide, with the major religions being Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, and Buddhism. Each religion has its own doctrines, which it believes are correct. Unfortunately, at the time of the rapture and the white throne judgment, many will come to realize they were indoctrinated incorrectly. It is my prayer that, if you are reading this blog, you are not one of the individuals who have been deceived. If perchance you are allow me to share a synopsis of the above scriptures.
Simply put, it is through the acceptance of the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, the son of God who was sent into the world as our Redeemer, that we are able to be part of the kingdom of God and spend eternity with Jesus. God designed it so that the only way we can approach and gain access to Him is through His Son, Jesus. Furthermore, if you deny Jesus’s heritage, His father will deny you.
In Genesis 3, God revealed to the serpent that there would be a redeemer, and other Old Testament writers prophesied the birth of Jesus hundreds of years before His birth. Moreover, Jesus stated his purpose in John 3: God loved the world; God sent Him; and whosoever believed in Him would have eternal life.
There are individuals who acknowledge God and accept portions of the Bible; however, we must eat the whole loaf, as the saying goes. We can’t pick and choose certain parts of the Bible to believe and other parts to reject. There is a divine connection between God and Jesus that man cannot sever, and it is the only way men can come to God (John 14:6).
