I know this is a hard and direct question.
But it is critical that you feel the urgency of your predicament, And the consequences if you reject JESUS CHRIST'S offer of Salvation!
The DEVIL will lie and lead you to believe, That you have plenty of time.
But do you really?
So, if you DIED today where would you go?
Heaven?
Hell?
Not Sure?
The Truth is:
YOU DON'T HAVE PLENTY OF TIME... Today could be the day that you die. Are you ready to meet GOD?
I pray that TODAY will be your day to START a relationship with JESUS CHRIST.
Take a look below and read what GOD has done for you to have eternal life.
GOD'S PLAN FOR YOU TO BE WITH HIM:
The Bible says there is only one way to Heaven;
Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." (John 14:6)
"And there is salvation in and through no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by and in which we must be saved." (Acts 4:12)
"For there is only one God and one Mediator who can reconcile God and people. He is the man Christ Jesus. He gave his life to purchase freedom for everyone."
(1 Timothy 2:5,6)
Good works cannot save you;
"For by grace are you saved through faith,not of yourselves.It is the gift of God. Not of works, lest any man should boast"(Ephesians 2:8-9)
Here's what you must do:
Admit you are a sinner;
"For all have sinned; all fall short of God's glory." (Romans 3:23)
"When Adam sinned, sin entered the entire human race. Adam's sin brought death, so death spread to everyone, for everyone has sinned." (Romans 5:12)
"If we say we have no sin, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us" (1 John 1:10)
..
"I tell you, but unless you repent,you will all likewise perish." (Luke 13:5)
"God overlooked it as long as you were ignorant, but that time is past. The unknown is now known, and he's calling all men to repent." (Acts 17:30)
"For God so loved the world that He gave his only begotten son. That WHOEVER beleive on Him, shall not perish, but have everlasting life." (John 3:16)
"But God proved His love to us, that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." (Romans 5:8)
"that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved." (Romans 10:9)
"For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." (Romans 10:10)
"For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." (Romans 10:13)
WHAT TO PRAY:
Dear GOD, I am a sinner and need your forgiveness. I believe that JESUS CHRIST shed His precious blood and died for my sin,and raised again on the third day. I am willing to turn from sin. Please forgive me for all the sins I have committed against you. I now invite JESUS CHRIST to control my life as my personal LORD and Saviour. From this day forward I will live my life for you GOD and not for myself. Thank you JESUS for taking my place I love you. In your name, JESUS, I pray. Amen.
"But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:" (John 1:12)
"Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new." (2 Corinthians 5:17)
If you have received JESUS CHRIST as your personal LORD and Saviour, as a Christian you should:
Read your Bible every day to get to know JESUS CHRIST better:
"Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." (2 Timothy 2:15)
"Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path." (Psalms 119:105)
Talk to GOD in prayer every day:
"And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive." (Matthew 21:22)
"Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God." (Philippians 4:6)
Be baptized, worship, fellowship, and serve with other Christians:
"Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:" (Matthew 28:19)
"Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching." (Hebrews 10:25)
"All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:" (2 Timothy 3:16)
Tell others about JESUS CHRIST:,
"And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature." (Mark 16:15)
"For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!" (1 Corinthians 9:16)
"For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek." (Romans 1:16)

Jesus loved you enough to die for you, can't you live for Him??

You are the book of 2 Timothy. Firm in your faith, you believe in making sure the veracity of the Word of God is adhered to and aren't afraid to "tell it like it is"! Others view you as strong-willed, and inclined to being opionated, but they respect your vast array of knowledge and information, not only about the Bible, but life in general! Take this quiz!
Various Christian like: Casting Crowns...Todd Agnew,New Song,Jeremy Camp,Overflow...Oldies like: Air Supply, R.E.O Speedwagon, The Beach Boys,Chicago..... and some Jazz like:Kenny G.

Jesus and my Mom
My daughters Miranda and Miriah for being such an awesome girls... when so many are turning to the world and the ways of the lost, they are staying true to the Lord and His ways.
MY MISSION:
Isaiah 61:1-4
The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon Me, because the LORD hath anointed Me to preach good tidings unto the meek. He hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound,
To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn,
To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness, that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that He might be glorified."
And they shall build the wastes of old, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the waste cities, the desolations of many generations.
I love reaching out to all people, and leading them to a wonderful salvation of grace through faith, offered by the sacrifice of Jesus. I love teaching and seeing people grow in the knowledge of the Word of God.
I love writing and directing Holy Spirit inspired dramas and skits.
I also have a passion for *purity* and the teens I lead know to expect a Purity Conference every year,and any other time or place that I'm asked to teach on the subject. I long to see teens (and adults)living a pure life for the Lord.
I'm very involved in ministry. Right now I teach two Bible Studies each week (Tuesday and Sunday Nights)as well as a class on Purity once a week.(Wednesday afternoon)
I'm tired of religion and its little boxes that it tries to place my BIG God into. I'm tired of seeing things of God, done in mans prideful way instead of God's way. He WON'T fit in our little boxes, He's too big for that! I pray that I will always stay conformed to HIS will for ministry and building HIS kingdom... not my own or any man's.
I long to see people truly fall in love with God and live in an abundant,joyful life,pleasing to HIM.
I'm wife to Kenny.(haha, that sounds like something from the Bible "begots") At the present time Kenny is a youth pastor/co- pastor. We have been in the ministry together for all of our married life. We've done all kinds of stuff, from running bus routes, to packing up and moving 800 miles from home to Pastor a church that we started with only our family of 4 and God. If it's ministry.. we've probably done it!
It has honestly been an honor to serve My Lord!
Kenny and I have been married 13 years and have 2 awesome kids by birth as well as two more that are already enjoying the wonders of heaven. We have several more awesome kids by "adoption".
I've homeschooled the kids for the past 11 years.
I stay really busy with all the hats I wear in life, but I'm thankful that God has given me opportunities and gifts to reach out and serve Him in so many different ways.
I pray I will raise my kids to love and serve God above all that this crazy world has to offer. I'm not a perfect parent by any means, but it's really cool that God is the perfect parent and when I fail, He fills in the missing pieces.
I pray that God will work through me to teach this generation that there are sooo many blessings in serving God. I want everyone to know that God has called all Christians to live a holy life and His plans for our life and love will far surpass any temporal pleasures we may indulge in while following our own will and desires.
I pray that I will be remembered, not for the great lessons I teach, the funny jokes I tell(ok, we all know it won't be that!), how much wisdom they thought I had, or even that I was a great mom (well,that would be great too! *grins*) but I really want to be remembered as a lady that truly loves~ and lives for her God in such a real way, that others can see Him in and through me and because of that, they will be drawn to know and serve this One True God that I serve.
I want you to know that I love you, because God loves me,and I hate sin, because God does and we both love you enough to want God's best for you.
I do stand, without apology, on what God says in His word. His Word is THE absolute Truth and answer for all of our lives.
Friend, come out of the darkness, into HIS marvelous light!
FELLOWSHIP OF THE UNASHAMED
I am a part of the "Fellowship of the Unashamed"
I have Holy Spirit Power. The die has been cast. I've stepped over the line. The decision has been made. I am a disciple of Christ. I won't look back,let up,slow down or back away. My past is redeemed, my present makes sense and my future is secure. I renounce low living,sight walking, small planning,colorless dreams,tame visions,mundane talking,chincy giving and dwarfed goals.
I don't need pre-eminence,position,plaudits or popularity. I don't have to be first,tops,recognized,praised, regarded,or rewarded by man. I live in God's presence,lean by faith,love with patience,lift in prayer and labor with power.
My face is set,my gait is fast,my goal is Heaven, my road is narrow,my way may be rough,my companions few,but my Guide is reliable and my mission clear. I can not be bought, my standards won't be compromised. I refuse to be detoured,lured away,turned back,diluted or delayed. I will not hesitate in the face of adversity, negotiate at the table of the enemy, ponder at the pool of popularity, nor meander in the maze of mediocrity.
I won't give up,shut up,let up or burn out till I've preached up,prayed up,paid up,stored up and stayed up for the cause of Christ.
I am a daughter of the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. As such, I refuse to live a life as a common peasant and proudly accept my place as royality.
I am a blood bought disciple of Jesus Christ.I must preach till He comes and proclaim till all have heard. When He comes to get His own,He will recognize me. My colors are clear.
Hey girl! We are doing fine! How are you?? Church is insanely awesome, and we are conquering territory in Jesus Name! I'm going to Florida in a couple days with Franklin, so that will be fun, This will be his first time flying! But maybe we can grab lunch together some time when I get back. I think about you a lot....pray for you always. ~Tammy
The modern Christian understanding of the birth of Jesus comes largely from extra-biblical works and traditions imported into the Gospels, rather than the biblical record itself.
We thought you would be blessed to read this Bible-based research article that shows the actual biblical events surrounding the birth of Christ.
