How do I know that I am one of the elect?

Let us look what the scripture says about this John 6 verses 37 in the Amplified Bible, Classic Edition “All whom My Father gives (entrusts) to Me will come to Me; and the one who comes to Me I will most certainly not cast out [I will never, no never, reject one of them who comes to Me].”   Also looking at John 6 verses 44 in the Amplified Bible, Classic Edition “No one is able to come to Me unless the Father Who sent Me attracts and draws him and gives him the desire to come to Me , and [then] I will raise him up [from the dead] at the last day.”  Still in John 6 going to verses 65 “And He said:  “This is why I told you that no one can come to Me unless it is granted him [unless he is enabled to do so] by the Father.”  Don’t loose heart carry on reading John 10 verses 6 to 29 in the Amplified Bible, Classic Edition “Jesus used this parable (illustration) with them, but they did not understand what He was talking about.  So Jesus said again, I assur...

A burning issue … to spank or not to spank your child?

Proverbs 3:12 Amplified Bible, Classic Edition 12  For whom the Lord loves He corrects, even as a father corrects the son in whom he delights. I see that in our society that we “do not spank” our children because they have rights.  The sad thing I believe is that we are cultivating a society of undisciplined spoilt brats.  I have attended a couple of school meetings and it is obvious that the children have more say than the adults or teachers.   They become rioters when they do not get their way.   Hmm, something is very wrong with this picture.  What happens to our respect for the people in authority?  What happened to the respect for our elders and parents?  The teacher doesn't even get the necessary respect. We are failing our children dismally, it is such a sad story but they have no consequences.  Tell me why don’t we step up to the plate and act righteously with our children?  Are we afraid of them?...

Are you zealous in your religion?

Acts 7: 54 – 60 English Revised Version “When those in the council meeting heard this, they became very angry.  They were so mad they were grinding their teeth at him.  But Stephen was full of the Holy Spirit.  He looked up into heaven and saw the glory of God.  And he saw Jesus standing at God’s right side.  Stephen said, “Look!I see heaven open.  And I see the Son of Man standing at God’s rights side.”  Everyone there started shouting loudly, covering their ears with their hands.  Together they all ran at Stephen.  They took him out of the city and began throwing stones at him.  The men who told lies against Stephen gave their coats to a young man named Saul.  As they were throwing the stones at him, Stephen was praying.  He said, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit!”  He fell on his knees and shouted, “Lord, don’t blame them for this sin!”  These were his last words before he died. Looking at Saul, he was very...

“Jesus is Lord”

Romans 10:9-10 (NIV) 9  If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.  10  For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. "If you confess with your mouth that “Jesus is Lord” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved." ...  How beautifully the word puts it ... confess with your mouth that “Jesus is Lord”...  and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead .... ... we will be saved. Then in verse 10: We are justified because we believe with the heart ...... and because we confess with our mouth, we are saved. Prayer:  Thank you, Lord, that we believe and confess that You are Lord. Thank you that we know that we need to believe can confess that Jesus is Lord. Thank you that our children may be brothers ...
