Salvation - Part 2


How is salvation?

SALVATION is a JOURNEY. Colossians 1:13 – 14

This is a journey from the Carnal Nature into the Nature of God. This is a journey from confusion into the knowledge of God’s plan for your life. This is a journey from fear to confidence. This is a journey from worries to the understanding of God’s plan. This is a journey from doubts to the wisdom of Christ at work in you. This is a journey from the law of sin and death to the law of Spirit and Life. This is the journey from the image of sin into the image of God. This is the journey from ignorance into the discovering of God’s plan and purpose for your life. This is the journey of Grace and Truth. This has nothing to do with THE LAW – BUT the GRACE OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST IS EVERY THING.  – JOHN 1:17

SALVATION is not all about you looking for God. This is a journey where God will locate you and come down to your level to reveal his intention or plan for your life. This is a journey from faith to faith. This is a journey where the word of God will deal with the pride of life, lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes in your life. This is the journey where the word of God will deal with any thing that is not of God at work in your life. This is the journey of God accepting you and loving you. This is not a journey of God punishing you, judging you and condemning you – but a journey of God accepting you, nurturing you, training you and relating with you as your Father. 2 CORINTHIANS 5:18 - 20.

SALVATION is not all about going to Church alone – it’s also about you maintaining a personal relationship with the Holy Spirit through the studying of God’s word. This is a journey of you studying your bible with the search to know the plan and purpose behind why Jesus redeemed you. This is the journey of you relating with the Holy Spirit with the search to discover, understand, and operate in your purpose for existence. JEREMIAH 33:3 – MATTHEW 7:7 - 8

SALVATION is not a religion but an experience with the Holy Spirit with the quest of knowing your purpose for existence. RELIGION is you trying to REACH GOD and SERVE GOD but SALVATION is all about God’s kingdom. God’s kingdom is about the God reaching out to you and fellowshipping with you as your Father. This is a FAMILY where God will come down to your level and a place where He choose you for himself. JOHN 15:16

This is a family where we don’t serve God as salves but fellowship and relate with Him as Father and son/daughter. This is a family where God will come down to your level and imperfect state, to accept you, nurture you and training you through the Holy Spirit and His Word, for you to become who He created you to be (Why Jesus Redeem you). This is not the platform of the Law (Judgment). This is the place of Grace (Acceptance) – JOHN 1:17

When can you experience this salvation?

When You Choose To Believe the Word (Jesus) and Confess the Word (Jesus) you believe. ROMANS 10:9

Shalom!

Teenagers, Finding Purpose through Christ

Hey there, teens! School's out, the sun's shining, and summer's calling your name. But beyond the fun and freedom, there's a golden opportunity waiting for you: the chance to dive into self-discovery and uncover your unique purpose. You might wonder, "Why now?" Well, because you were created for a specific reason, as a solution to a specific problem, and through the knowledge of Christ, you can start to uncover that purpose.

Self-discovery helps you understand your strengths, passions, and values. It's about figuring out what makes you tick and what brings you joy. When you know yourself better, you can make choices that align with your true self, leading to a more fulfilling and purposeful life. Created for a Reason Ephesians 2:10 says, "For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, whi...

Teenagers, Prayer Is A Lifestyle

Prayer is not just a religious routine—it’s a personal conversation with God, your Father, who cares deeply about every detail of your life. For teenagers navigating school, friendships, emotions, and choices, daily prayer can become a safe place to process it all. It’s more than asking God for things; it’s about sharing your thoughts, listening for His guidance, and allowing His peace to fill your heart. Think of it like talking to your best friend—honest, real, and consistent. Even five to ten minutes each morning can reset your mood, shift your focus, and help you start your day with a clear mind and a peaceful heart. You don’t need fancy words. Just be real. Whether you're praying silently, whispering, or writing your thoughts in a journal like a letter to God, what matters is your heart. Over time, prayer becomes a habit that helps you stay calm in pressure, kind when it's hard, and strong when you're tempted to quit. If you're wondering how to grow in this, start ...

10 Assessment for Discovering Your God-Given Talents and Passions as Teenagers

1. Reflect on the activities that make you lose track of time because you enjoy them so much. How do these activities align with what you believe God has placed in your heart? Consider Ecclesiastes 3:11, which says, “He has made everything beautiful in its time.” How can you use these passions to serve others? 2. Identify a talent or skill you have that others often compliment or seek your help with. How does this talent reflect God’s purpose for your life? In 1 Peter 4:10, we are reminded to use our gifts to serve others. How can you use this talent to make a positive impact? 3. Think about a time when you felt particularly fulfilled or proud of an accomplishment. What strengths or skills did you use in that moment? Reflect on how these might be part of God’s plan for you, as stated in Philippians 2:13, “For it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose.” 4. Consider your dreams and aspirations. What do you dream of achieving, and how m...
