Those Who Chose
by Tonja Taylor
8/06/2024 / Salvation
"Why would a God of love send anyone to hell?"
A well-known minister was asked this, and he was not sure what to say, so he asked the LORD about it.
"Tell them it is not My choice," said the LORD.
Indeed, we must choose life, as the Word says!
Jesus came to give His life as a ransom for many (the whole world; for all who would choose Him)--for the ones whom, at the fast-approaching end of the age--would be those who chose Him, and thus would receive eternal life after their bodies die!
Hallelujah
Are you one of those who chose the eternal help of our ultra-gracious LORD Jesus, the Christ, the Anointed One, the perfect and holy Son of God--Who gave us His diety to become as one of us humans, so that, by repenting of our sins and believing in His sacrifice for us, that we could become like Him?
Or, are you one who will refuse to choose?
We all need to be born again; regenerated in our spirits, because all people, since Adam and Eve (the first people, hand-made by God) betrayed God and gave the enemy authority in the earth, and all he wants to do is kill, steal, and destroy, because he is mad at God.
Romans 3:23 says, All have sinned (by birth; by default; without being able to help it!) and fallen short of the glory of God (Who is pure and holy; Who is Himself perfection; perfect Light); emphasis mine.
Romans 6:23 says the wages of sin is death.
However, Romans 10:13 says, All who call upon the Name of the LORD shall be saved. Hallelujah!
As crazy, dark, depressed, and destructive as this world is, the LORD Jesus Christ is the only true Light, and He is calling you right now to repent of all wrongs, and let Him cleanse you by His blood, so you can have that most glorious and sublime, close relationship with Him now, and then forever in Heaven, after your body dies and your spirit separates from that body!
(No human spirit and soul ever just dissolves, disappears, or just ceases to exist; it either goes to live up in Heaven with the LORD, in perfect bliss and harmony, or down to hell (which was created for the devil and the fallen angels, not for people, but they have to go there if they refuse to choose Jesus; there are only two choices!), in eternal agony, fear, and torment!)
King Jesus is coming soon, to gather all who truly believe in Him (and only the LORD knows the hearts of all men, for He created all life and sustains us every breath!), to escape this horrid mess on earth, and be transported with Him to enjoy Heavenly life!
Hallelujah!
God is good and all good. His mercy endures forever! That is why you are alive and reading this today! He is drawing you to Himself, before it is too late!
Today, you can choose to receive Christ Jesus as your wonderful Savior, LORD, and Best Friend Forever! He loves you so much He died for you; He was broken in every way, so you can be whole in every way! Hallelujah!
Let me just share that, if you "refuse to choose", that is still a choice--but for death.
Jesus Christ is Life. He is the Author and Finisher of our faith, and faith in Him, the Living God, the true and only Savior of the world, is life!
He came that we might have life, and have it to the full, till it overflows with good things; Zoe life!
The thief’s purpose is to steal and kill and destroy. My purpose is to give them a rich and satisfying life.--John 10:10, NLT
When you breathe your last breath (and who but the LORD your Creator knows when that will be?), or King Jesus returns (in the twinkling of an eye), will you be counted among those who chose correctly?
Will you be one of the wise ones who chose the true life that only Christ Jesus the LORD, Who is Love (I John 4:8)?
You have nothing to lose (except all the bad dark stuff the enemy has used to mess up your life! Ask me how I know!), and more love and peace and joy and abundance and protection and satisfaction than you can realize, to gain!
This is the message we heard from Jesus and now declare to you: God is light, and there is no darkness in him at all. So we are lying if we say we have fellowship with God but go on living in spiritual darkness; we are not practicing the truth. But if we are living in the light, as God is in the light, then we have fellowship with each other, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, cleanses us from all sin.If we claim we have no sin, we are only fooling ourselves and not living in the truth. But if we confess our sins to him, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all wickedness. -- I John 1:5-9, NLT
If you want to receive the LORD Jesus right now, it's easy! He did all the hard work, so all you and I have to do is just agree! Hallelujah! How wonderful is that?!
You have the power to choose. Choose right now to believe in Jesus Christ as your Savior and LORD (Tell your mind to shut up. It will fight you, for the Word of God says the carnal mind is an enemy of God.), and say this simple prayer out loud (for He knows every word on your tongue before you speak it; every thought before you think it! He truly IS the AWESOME GOD!!!):
Dear Jesus, I choose to believe You are real, and You are drawing me right now to Yourself, because You love me, and want to save me from this horrible world! I ask You to forgive me of all my sins; everything I've done wrong against You. Please cleanse me with Your blood, and come into my life and be my Savior and LORD and Best Friend Forever. I receive You and thank You! In Your Name, amen!
Now, Hallelujah! You have become one of the wise; one of those who chose to do the right thing; one of those who chose to make the most excellent choice in your entire life--to receive Christ Jesus as your Savior and LORD! Hallelujah!
Now, you have the Spirit of God with you and living in your heart always! You can talk to Him any time, anywhere, about anything--because He has now become your Heavenly Father; your adopted Daddy God!
But to all who believed him and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God.--John 1:12, NLT
He loves you! He wants you to get to know Him, for He knows everything about you, and created you in your mother's womb!
So you have not received a spirit that makes you fearful slaves. Instead, you received God's Spirit when he adopted you as his own children. Now we call him, “Abba, Father.” --Romans 8:15, NLT
Ask God (now your Father, and the One Who leads you always in right paths!) to help you get to know Him, through reading His eternal Book, the Holy Bible. Everything you need to know to live the life you've always wanted is in there!
Ask Him to lead you to a Bible-believing church, and to help you be connected to people who will love you, pray for you, inspire you to live the God-life, and enjoy the blessings God has and will give you!
He is faithful and good forever. His love and mercy and grace know no bounds!
Psalm 118 and Psalm 136 are excellent to read, especially out loud, to help you know more specifically about how merciful the LORD is!
Congratulations on being one of those who chose the LORD!
(If you didn't, that's all right too. Ask God to reveal Himself to you and show you this is real; that HE is real. He will!)
Oh, give thanks to the God of heaven! For His mercy endures forever. - Psalm 136:26, NLT
