My Beliefs


Someone asked me what I believe here in its simplest form is what I believe,

I believe Jesus as recorded by the apostle John when he says, 
“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, 
that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.  
For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, 
but to save the world through him.  
Whoever believes in him is not condemned, 
but whoever does not believe stands condemned already 
because he has not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son. 
                                                                                                   John 2:16-18
I believe Jesus is the only way to heaven. Jesus saying,
“Jesus answered, 
“I am the way and the truth and the life. 
No one comes to the Father except through me.” 
                                                                                              John 14:6

I believe we are saved through faith. The words of the apostle Paul stating.
“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this not from yourselves,
 it is the gift of God—  
not by works, so that no one can boast.” 
                                                                                Ephesians 2:8,9
I believe the words of the writer of Hebrews when he writes,
“And without faith it is impossible to please God, 
because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists 
and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.” 
                                                                                          Hebrews 11:6
I believe Faith is,
“Now faith is being sure of what we hope for 
and certain of what we do not see.” 
                                                                                Hebrews 11:1
I believe,
“If we confess our sins, he (Jesus) is faithful and just
         and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.” 
                                                                                                              1John 1:9
Think about it.
