Many people use the word "BELIEVE" generically and tell people they will go to heaven if they "just" believe. What if we say it differently and tell people if they do not "BELIEVE" correctly, they will not make it to heaven? Will that make them think? How do you know YOU are believing correctly? Whether you are a baptist, catholic, pentecostal, JW, mormon, hindu, muslim, or "CHRISTIAN" YOU ALL THINK YOU GOT THE TRUTH?
All the Christians within their denominations ALL think they are going to heaven. They pretty much have been told all to "Believe" But sadly most have not been discipled.
Proverbs 21:2 (Amplified Bible) - Every way of a man is right in his own eyes, but the Lord weighs and tries the hearts.
So the real question is who is speaking the TRUTH and what is TRUTH? From all these denominations and groups such as JW or Mormons, they can wheel and deal out chiche of verses and point out their views. Who has Truth? How do you know what you are being taught is Truth?
Proverbs 14:12 12There is a way which seems right to a man and appears straight before him, but at the end of it is the way of death. HOW DO YOU KNOW YOU GOT TRUTH? Three years ago, my wife and I was sent to deliver a message to a preacher. The main message entailed the following. God basically said, "STOP PREACHING NONSENSE AND TEACH MY PEOPLE TO FOLLOW MY COMMANDMENTS!!!" IT IS NOT THAT EASY TO ENTER INTO HEAVEN! TEACH THEM TO FOLLOW MY COMMANDMENTS!!"
You see many people think entering heaven is a simple formula; "think and so you are." God has told me THREE times in the last 4 years that IT IS NOT THAT EASY TO ENTER HEAVEN. Why? Because it is very easy to be deceived and we can be led a strayed. If you read scripture, Paul and the other Apostles continued to warn their brother/sisters of the wolves. Scripture warns us not to go the way of Balaam and Cain. Have you read the book of Jude yet? How many times did Jesus warn us not to be deceived.
Jude 1:4-5 (Amplified Bible)
4 For certain men have crept in stealthily [[a]gaining entrance secretly by a side door]. Their doom was predicted long ago, ungodly (impious, profane) persons who pervert the grace (the spiritual blessing and favor) of our God into lawlessness and wantonness and immorality, and disown and deny our sole Master and Lord, Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One).
5 Now I want to remind you, though you were fully informed once for all, that though the Lord [at one time] delivered a people out of the land of Egypt, He subsequently destroyed those [of them] who did not believe [who refused to adhere to, trust in, and rely upon Him]
How do you know that you are not deceived? You see, it is very easy just to tell people to "Believe." And many of us in fear of losing friends or our congregation will not speak Truth. We are so afraid to tell people that if they do not believe correctly, they will basically end up in HELL. Truth will hurt. Truth will pierce you through your bones. Truth will awaken your eyes. Truth will not let you can go back and sit on the couch and go back to watching TV. Truth makes you react. Truth will start to make you pray unceasingly!
There is only one Truth and a million lies. A half a Truth is a Life. You must look for the needle in the hay stack. You must FULLY Follow God. How do we know we are in His Truth?
Do not depend on people to the point you are idolizing man or a program where your relationship is with them or things. But make sure you are COMPLETELY as a little Child TOTALLY dependent on the LORD. I see too many dependent and having a relationship with their pastors, man, programs, "church", other Christians and NOT GOD. CARE FOR THE THINGS OF GOD AND NOT OF MAN. Get that straight and the things of man get taken care of through God, not you.
Always ask the Holy Spirit to show you His Truth. Ask Him to put you in agreement with Him. Ask Him to help you NOT become deceived, corrupted, or be led a stray. Is is ALL or NONE with God. Scripture says, you can not enter heaven unless you have a faith like a child. Scripture says, ONLY THOSE WHO DO THE WILL OF THE FATHER WILL ENTER HEAVEN. YOU BETTER FIGURE OUT WHAT THAT MEANS. IF YOUR FAITH IS NOT ENOUGH TO GET YOUR HEALING OR PROVISIONS, THEN HOW WILL IT GET YOU INTO HEAVEN WHICH GREATER FAITH IS REQUIRED?
THEREFORE BRETHREN, YOU HAVE GRACE NOW TO LEARN WHAT "BELIEVE" AND "FAITH" ARE TO BE IN CHRIST, NOT by WHAT WEBSTER DICTIONARY STATES. LIFE IS GIVEN TO YOU AS A TEST TO TEST YOUR FAITH TO SEE IF IT IS GENUINE. BECAUSE ONCE YOU DIE, YOU WILL NOT HAVE ANOTHER CHANCE TO TEST IF YOUR FAITH IN JESUS IS GENUINE. SEEK TRUTH, SEEK HIM NOW WHILE HE MAY BE FOUND.
