Meet Yeshua
(Jesus Christ)
For the benefit of our
Jewish readership and those who would like to broaden their understanding of
God, I have added this section, Old Testament recommended
reading.
Because I am a
Messianic believer (Jewish believer) it is very important
to me that my Jewish readers know that Jesus, Greek for His real name in
Hebrew Yeshua (Joshua or Salvation) is found all throughout the OLD
testament. Just a footnote...My personal relationship with GOD (Yeshua) did
not come without a cost. For a long time my family shunned me, my
Grandmother sat shiver (ritual for the dead) on my behalf and considered me dead. Our relationship
never really survived the trauma of my decision.
So, it is with GREAT
and HEART felt compassion and LOVE for my people that I
share these scriptures with you, not to offend you, only to provoke your
thinking. It is NOT my job to force you to listen. God ONLY asks me
to share with you Yeshua revealed in Scripture. It is his job to change the
heart of man! May the GOD of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob Bless YOU in
your journey for the TRUTH!

God
has a "Pardon" in Heaven with YOUR name on it...
Is Yeshua (Jusus Christ) your God-Savior today? If not, first
believe in your heart that God did send Yeshua (Jesus Christ) to
earth to take our sins upon himself by dieing on the cross and that
after 3 days He was raised from the dead by the Father to
everlasting life. Yeshua became a living sacrifice, God's provided
sacrifice, the Sacrificial Lamb of God for you and me. Now ask him
to forgive you your trespasses and sins and confess him as LORD in
Faith and decide to follow and serve HIM COMPLETELY. Now you do
have Eternal Life! It's PROMISED and HE does have a "Pardon" in
Heaven with YOUR name on it. If you put your Faith in Him today,
welcome to the family!
John 3:16-17
Remember, "God so LOVED the World that he GAVE HIS ONLY begotten SON,
that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have Eternal Life.
God did NOT send His son into the World to Condemn it, but through HIM
the World might be Saved!
1 John 1:9
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
Proverbs 3:5-8
Trust in the LORD with all your heart; and lean not to your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will direct your paths. Be not wise in your own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart
from evil. It shall be health to your navel, and marrow to your
bones.
1 Peter 5:6-7
Humble yourself under the mighty hand of GOD, that HE may exalt
you in due time, casting ALL your Care upon HIM, for HE cares for YOU!
Romans 6:20-23
For when you were the servants of sin, you were free from
righteousness. What fruit had you then in those things of which you
are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death. But now being
made free from sin, and having become servants to God, you have your
fruit to holiness, and the end everlasting life. For the wages of sin
is death: but the gift of God is eternal life, through
Jesus Christ our Lord.
Romans 10:8-13
But what does it say? "THE WORD IS NEAR YOU, in your mouth and in your
heart"--that is, the word of faith which we are preaching, that if you
confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your
heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved; for with
the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the
mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation. For the Scripture says,
"WHOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED." For there is no
distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of
all, abounding in riches for all who call on Him; for "WHOEVER WILL
CALL ON THE NAME OF THE LORD WILL BE SAVED."
To be forgiven of your
sins and have Eternal Life is as simple as praying, "Father I am a
sinner, I agree with you, I have sinned, I believe with all my heart
that Yeshua (Jesus Christ) died for me on the cross, please forgive me
of my sin, I chose to turn away from my sin and old life and chose to
follow Jesus Christ now. I accept Yeshua's (Jesus Christ) death,
burial, and resurrection for me now. Thank you for saving my soul!
In the name of Jesus Christ Amen...
If you prayed this
and meant it
CONGRATULATIONS you are now saved from the penalty of sin
(separation from GOD), and now you will live forever with GOD!
Remember to
read the Bible start with the Gospel of John, talk with GOD (pray),
cultivate your new relationship with Him, ask GOD to help you to
not sin. If you do sin just remember Yeshua (Christ) died for your
sin and forgives you. The penalty of sin (death) is not upon you any
longer. Now find people of like mind
in your area to help you on your new quest...I should put some emphasis on this, when you asked Yeshua
into your life, you are making a life long commitment/promise
that you have chosen to change the course of your life with HIS help and to stop
doing those things that you know disappoint GOD. GOD'S Spirit now
lives in you and HE will let you know when you have disappointed him.
When you sense this has happened, stop, ask GOD for forgiveness
1 John 1:9 and HE WILL forgive you!
