Eternal Security



Can You Be Sure?

"For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ" Romans 14:10.

There are more than 600 different denominational churches all with different doctrines, beliefs, and teachings. There is so much confusion in the world in regards to religious beliefs that is a result of the ignorance of God’s word. People are conflicted by the many different doctrines of religion, and they are so confused, they don’t know what to believe. My advice is to believe God, seek the truth. “For God is not a God of confusion, but of peace.” (1 Corinthians 14:33). It is the will of God for you to be wise, sound minded. Any person who is serious about salvation cannot afford to follow any of the many false doctrines that are being taught. But what is the truth? Who to believe? Which way to go? Our Lord Jesus Christ, who is our Savior, has already answered all of our questions by His suffering and death on the cross. He is the only truth. Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” (John 14:6)He is the One to follow and the truth is found in the Bible.

Why is it so important to know the truth about eternal security? Because one day, we shall all stand before Christ giving account to our time here on earth. Judgment comes with a verdict and some people will get to be with Christ in heaven and some will be forever separated from Him. Forever is a long time to be without God, wouldn’t you say? You must know, without a doubt, where you are going to spend eternity. You cannot afford not to know. YOU CAN BE SURE. It is so simple. Just say yes to Christ. Believe that He is the Son of God who died, resurrected and ascended to heaven where is preparing a place for you. You need to start living for Christ. He believes you are worth dying for; therefore, living for Him shouldn’t be a problem. Your soul is worth more than the whole world and everything in it. Jesus says in Matthew 16:26, "For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?" Your soul is the part of you that is going to continue to live on forever throughout all eternity. You cannot afford to lose our soul and be eternally punished. You have got to make sure that you spend eternity in the loving arm of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Friend, you need to get ready. You need to be sure. You have got to put your affairs together today because “yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes.” (James 4:14) You must not make an error concerning your salvation in following what "seems right" to us, or that we "feel in our heart that we are saved" The Bible warns us about that in Proverbs 14:12, "There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death". Our feelings are not a safe guide, but only the Bible is. My dear friend today is the day of salvation. Come to Christ and be sure.

Praise the Lord!
