100 Reasons You Must Be A Christian 7
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 Sixteen, Access To Free Gifts. It is only the Lord that gives freely. Satan also gives. He gives one item but takes not less ten instead; or gives the weakest to take the strongest. To receive every gift from God, you only need to run away from every wrongdoing. "For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance:..." "... even so by the righteousness of one (JESUS Christ) the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life." Reason Seventeen. A Friend Of God. Every man needs a sincere and faithful friend. The best friend you can have is Jesus Christ. If you become a Christian, He becomes your friend because you obey whatever He commands. He assures, "You are my friends, if you do whatever I command you. No longer do I call you not servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing, for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you." Reason Eighteen. Permanent Companionship. If you are Christ's, then you will enjoy a permanent companionship with Jesus Christ. He assures you, "Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go." Do you want more? He also assure you thus, "Fear not, for I an with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand." 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: Romans 11:29; 5::18b John 15:14-15;Joshua 1:9; Isaiah 41:10.
