100 REASONS YOU MUST BE A CHRISTIAN 11
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 Twenty eight. Becoming The Righteousness Of God. On your becoming a Christian, you will become the righteousness of God. This is so because the Lord had been made to be sin for all Christians, including you. "For He (GOD) made Him (JESUS) who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him." Becoming the righteousness of the Lord will give room for your prayer to do great works by setting divine forces in motion to bring answers to your requests according to His will. Reason Twenty nine. Temple Of God. You must become a Christian because your body is not owned by you but by your Creator. He wants to occupy it by His Spirit. "...For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said: ' I will dwell in them And walk among them. I will be their God, And they shall be My people.' " That is why you must come out from among sinners to be separate. You shall not touch unclean things and the Lord will receive you. Reason Thirty. Bought At A Price. You need to become a Christian because a price has been paid for your salvation. You only receive the good (salvation) now. "For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit,which is God's" Therefore, "...be not become slaves of men....abide with God." 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.
