I am glad to hear that De.
I have not been in a church yet that did not adhere to those same Family times as taught in scripture in a 1611 KJV Bible which was translated by a team of the best Greek and Hebrew scholars of their time from the original Hebrew and Greek to Elizabethan English.
I have many of the actual scholars who worked on this profiles and backgrounds in my Library. They were remarkable men and professed themselves unworthy to handle the copies of the manuscripts from so long ago.
People often say how do we know that the scrolls and original words were not changed?
today we have COPY machines.
In olden days they had them also.. They were called SCRIBES whose only duty was to copy every JOT and TITTLE exactly as it was written..
People from cults are often very nice like that but they are misled and do not know the scriptures plus they want to "cherry pick" some things out of context.
Unfortunately, many people will have been misled and will not have CHRIST as SAVIOR alone.
It wasn't Christ plus anyone else who came to earth in the form of a human male baby. The message and means of Salvation has never changed since HE came.
HE did not need to come at all if we believe the Mormons.
OR some other unBiblical groups.
Jesus Christ said HIMSELF "COME UNTO ME and I will give you REST (eternal life).
ONLY CHRIST has power over death and hell and Salvation.
HE yasted DEATH for EVERY single person born and HIS blood sacrifice (spilled blood) was sufficient to pay the penalty of ALL of our sins if we simply ASK HIM. GOD the FATHER accepted the offering HE MADE on our behalf and sees us through the forgiveness and cleansing blood of Christ in every one who comes to HIM and receives HIM by FAITH thru His GRACE alone.
HE alone is all sufficient for a person to have their name written in the LAMB'S BOOK OF LIFE which is kept in Heaven.. Your name will be recorded inside that book IF you have trusted The Lamb of GOD as Savior and Lord.
It is free to ALL who would believe in their hearts and confess with their mouths that HE IS LORD and SAVIOR to the glory of God the FATHER and The Son.
He will cleanse you of all your sins and you will be clothed in the righteousness of HIM who Loved you and gave Himself for you. ALL HE ASKS is that you trust HIM alone for your salvation which he made possible when HE took our sins, paid the price of them to satisfy the offenses to GOD, and make is appear in robes of white because of the Righteousness of God the SON.
NO one here on earth is perfect and sinless. No, not a single one. Christ can wash us and cleanse us by the blood HE shed and clean all that sin off of us and put on us HIS Righteousness so the FATHER SEES US as sinless and we are acceptable to be in HIS presence..
GOD Cannot tolerate nor be around SIN. HE is HOLY and that is why people who come into His presence must be HOLY and clean from all SIN. THAT can only be done thru the Blood of Christ and the GRACE of God thru faith, and not of ourselves. It is the gift of God, not of man's works or acts, lest any of us should boast. IT is ALL of GOD and NONE of man.. Its that simple..
EVERY HUMAN is asked the very same question.
WHAT HAVE YOU DONE with the very SON of GOD?
Have you repented of your sinfulness and sought HIS forgiveness ? Have you repented of your sins and confessed them to HIM alone? Have you asked HIM to come into your heart and to save you from your sins and to be your Lord and Savior?
IF SO, YOUR name will be recorded in the LAMB'S BOOK of LIFE where when you die, it will be looked up amd if it is, you will be told, 'WELL DONE, welcome into the joy of The Lord". If not, you will be cast into Hell and tormented a Thousand years, only to be removed and stood before GOD for final sentencing, and then thrown into the Eternal LAKE OF FIRE for eternity. You will not die. You will feel the flames and the stings of scorpions and other creatures. You will suffer forever and it will never end.
GOD GIVES YOU A CHOICE. Trust HIM and be a resident in the Eternal City and reign and rule with HIM all eternity.
Or, you can spend eternity in eternal torment, pain, and suffering. AND utter darkness.
We all have a choice. The Bible is clear. You can take a chance to find out if it was just kidding or you can trust in Christ and live with HIM forever..
THIS is what the JW's and Mormons do not tell you...
It is Christ plus or minus NOTHING. And it is all plainly and clearly found in your 1611 KJV Bible in Elizabethan English translated by the very best scholars of ancient Greek and Hebrew in the World.. Every word was Quadruple checked for accuracy by Four other teams before it was approved as being as correct as possible..
I rest the case of LIFE eternal in Heaven after death on earth according to The Scriptures. ALL of what I have written can be checked and looked up.
Charles H Spurgeon said the same things a long time ago as did many great Preachers called of God like DL Moody for example and Billy Graham to name only a couple.
ANYONE can come to Christ and take HIM as Savior and Lord.
God bless you,
