100 REASONS YOU MUST BE A CHRISTIAN 6
by Olawale Ogunsola PRAYER God in Heaven, I thank You for making it possible to come across this write-up. Help me through it. Open my eyes to see the truth presented to me in it. Give me the grace and courage to accept the truth at the end of reading it. Amen. Reason Thirteen, Freedom From Satan. If you must live a free life from the enemy of your soul, satan, you must be a Christian. Confess Christ as your Lord and Savior and you will no longer be a captive of satan because "you shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free." Jesus Christ is "the way, the truth and the life." It is only Jesus Christ, the Truth, that can say to satan " Loose him and let him go" and he will obey. You cannot receive this assurance elsewhere. Be free today! Reason Fourteen. Liberation From Fear. You are living in fear because you are not yet Christ's. Become His own today and "Fear will knock at the door, faith will open it and there will be nothing there". Be free today! The Livin Manual states, "Fear not, stand still and see the salvation of the Lord, which he will show to you today... For God had not given up the spirit of fear; but of power and love and of a sound mind." If you belong to Christ, there will not be any fear in you. Be free from the bondage of fear today! Reason Fifteen. Power To Overcome Sin. After you have you have been delivered from your former sins, you must not sin again. This may be impossible or difficult without the Spirit of Christ in you as a Christian. This is because the Living Manual says, "...Fear not; for God is come to prove you and that his fear may be before your faces, that you do not sin." Note that "the scripture had concluded all under sin, that the promise of faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe." Do you know (think) of any other alternative? It is of falsehood! Have you sincerely read those points? Do you believe them indeed? CONFESSIONAL PRAYER Heavenly Father, I thank you for the grace, power and courage that you have given me to read this piece. I have now known the Truth, let the Truth set me free totally and eternally in Jesus' Name. Lord Jesus Christ, thank you for your death for my sins. I confess that you died for me and you have risen unto glory. I confess you as my Lord and Savior. Give me the grace and mercy to follow you until I am counted worthy when you come again. Thank you Jesus for saving me. Note: Scripture verses quoted from New King James Version are: John 8:32, 14:6a,11:44; Exodus 14:13; 2Timothy 1:7; Exodus 20:20.
