Believe it with your life..not your lips

For GOD so loved the world that HE gave HIS one and only Son, that whoever believes in HIM shall not perish but have eternal life. For GOD did not send HIS Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through HIM. Whoever believes in HIM is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of GOD’S one and only Son. This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed. But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what they have done has been done in the sight of GOD.-John 3:16-21

And John 3:16 has always been the one Bible verse that I have always known ::

FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD, THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON (JESUS) SO THAT THROUGH HIM, (BY BELIEVING IN HIM) WILL NOT PERISH, BUT BE SAVED—

It’s so much more too to just “believing”

If we that say that we believe this beautiful bible verse from GOD’S word, then we truly believe, and we that truly believe it, Strive to live by GOD’S WORD, because without Faith, it is impossible to believe, and without Faith, it’s impossible to please GOD. Without Faith, no one can be considered “Righteous” 

Faith is the real key to living for GOD—

People “of GOD” honor GOD and ALL of HIS WORD, to its entirety, —they do not “question it” but instead they absolutely honor it, and not with their lips, but with their life. 

There is nothing about a Christian that makes anyone a “Bible thumper” or holier than thou” and I really hate hearing it too..because I know without doubt that is not who I am, or who I try to profess to be. I know I am only saved by what CHRIST did for me, but I am not going to say out of my mouth that I am a Christian, take the free gift of Salvation, and go back again and live in the world again by its standards. 

LIVING FOR CHRIST means dying to self. It’s a daily walk, and sometimes we fell alot at it, but with JESUS, living in my heart, and through HIS help, we learn from our mistakes and we get back up and start again and with CHRIST and HIS way..the right way.

the conviction…

We who are Christians have surrendered our lives to JESUS CHRIST -who died for our sins. We are living with HIS HOLY SPIRIT on the inside of us, which is and should be an ever presence in our lives and so we are living from HIS LEAD. 

HIS Holy Spirit corrects and Convicts, so “there is a lot to that word believing”—

A lot of responsibility goes with BELIEVING 🙌🏼❤️
