Believe it or Not.
The apostle John writes,
“Many deceivers, who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh, have gone out into the world. Any such person is the deceiver and the antichrist.
Watch out that you do not lose what you have worked for, but that you may be rewarded fully.” 2 John 1:7,8.
Watching out for “deceivers” is a constant theme of the New Testament writers. The reason is simple we as believers in Christ must preach the pure word of God at all times. The result for not doing so has the potential for eternal consequences.
Upon the believer in Christ Jesus shines a great light. If we truly believe what Jesus said about himself in John 3:16-18,
“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 3:16-18.
Then we have an obligation to tell this to the world.
The message of the Gospel of Jesus Christ is black and white. Either you believe that Jesus is the one and only Son of God, the Saviour of mankind, God incarnate, or you do not. There is no middle ground.
The choice is yours.
Please think about it.
