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!

Teenager, Who Are You Really?

Have you ever felt like you’re trying to be someone you’re not? Maybe you feel pressured to fit in, to look a certain way, or to meet expectations that don’t align with who you truly are. The world is loud, constantly telling you who you should be, how you should act, and what you should believe. But have you ever stopped to ask, Who does God say I am? 2 Corinthians 5:17 says, “If anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!” You are not defined by your past mistakes, your insecurities, or the labels people place on you. In Christ, you are made new. Your worth isn’t found in popularity, achievements, or how many people approve of you. Your worth is found in the One who created you. Psalm 139:14 reminds you, “I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made.” Think about that for a moment. You are not an accident. You are not a mistake. Every part of you—your personality, your gifts, your dreams—was intentionally designed by God....

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?"

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...
