Children of Faith Stand Up!
© 2007
By Frances Loftiss Carroll
Here is a common sense truth that many people stumble over on the road of life; not all who claim to be Christians are Christians! Let’s look at some of the things that must be challenged about statements of faith that the illegitimate children make so that we might identify them and know that what they say directly denies the diety of the Lord.
A popular religious leader says, “The virgin birth is unimportant and does not matter. A religion claiming to be Christian says that those of their faith will rule other worlds and that they have an additional revelation from God given the founder of their cause a “new revelation” from God. Further more they teach that the men in their religion will are gods and that they will rule other worlds. Another person expounds, “God’s wants all to prosper and have wealth.” Still another claims, “God isn’t mad at anyone and that all will go to on to eternal bliss only good things for everyone and nobody has judgment passed on them by God for living outside of God’s way.”
One guy recently said on his tv show that he was a god like GOD. Over and over again false believers and liars pull people in with teachings that strive to place people on the same plain as God. The truth is their lives are filled with lies. They fool people with lies that people want to believe and their teachings are directing multitudes of people towards hell. Their destiny will be eternal damnation and a judgment from God that none can deny if they do not change.
The Bible is true! God has given it to us to show us the importance of following His laws, His truth, and His direction. People wake up! God has shown us how those who have live before us have sinned and done wrong against God and His laws and the price that must be paid for breaking His laws. There is no compromise. There is no changing God, regardless of what you decide “you want”, God will not be changed nor will He be compromised. This is the truth and God does not lie! God is in control of the universe and everything in it, like it or not, God is God and will not be changed. We must believe that God has a purpose for our lives and that purpose is to know Him, believe Him, and worship Him.
The reality of hell is a terrible fate for the lost and droves of persons willing march through the doors of unbelief thinking hell is a joke. It is not! Nor is God to be mocked by the foolishness of mankind and man’s desire to have everything “his or her” way. God’s justice will prevail despite our opinions and distortion of God’s principles. We were created by and for God, not for our own selfish and foolish pursuits.
We are engaged in a spiritual conflict and a battle for our souls. We battle not with flesh and blood but with the devil, the one we call Satan and many people have already lost their hope! They people do not long to be rescued from the enemy who attacks and seeks their soul for they know nothing of the Prince of Peace, the gift of salvation, the sacrifice that Christ has made for those who will believe and submit themselves to God as Lord of their life. Thy are the spiritually dead walking among and they struggle with hidden insecurities, desires of grandeur and hopes of something better than what they have now. They are never satisfied and always planning to get rich, have lots of stuff, and be recognized by people who are just as spiritually dead as they. Their spirit is dead and they are blinded by “living for self and self-gain”. They consider their lives more important than any other thing and having the things of this world as their “trophies and treasures.” They laugh at those of faith and mock our lifestyle because they are blind spiritual zombies who have nothing to live for other than “today”. And, they do not care, and many don’t realize, that there is a life beyond what we presently see.
So, what are you waiting for? Aren’t you weary of seeing your family and friends slip and slide on the road of eternal destruction? Do you truly want those people you love so dearly to perish without the Lord you love? It’s time to speak up Christian! This is no time to me timid or afraid for the Lord stands as the Commander of His army and He is bold and will not run from the devil. He confronted the devil with Scriptures and the devil found no room to extinguish the flame of forgiveness that Christ offers. The devil turned from him and sought other souls to destroy, aren’t you going to do something?
So how do you start talking to the faithless and those who do not believe? I have found “the Way of the Master” as presented by Ray Comfort to give me the courage and understanding of God’s decrees to show me how to say what’s been on my heart for years in sharing Christ.
For more information on this easy approach you will want to check out a great site, www.genesis-group.net and discover Ray Comfort’s “everyday” approach to sharing your faith. It will change your life and will show others a stress free way to understand God’s grace.
