The Forgiven


Everything that has a soul is under judgment!
There is not one person who will not be judged by Almighty God!
He is our Creator and has given us commands to follow.
But in His mercy toward us, He gave us eternal life through Christ Jesus for all who will believe on Him alone for salvation.
An eternal gift, not based on our merit but on the power of Christ, being wholly God, wholly man.
Christ, being the only acceptable blood sacrifice substitute, paid our debt before God, accepting the whole wrath of God, sealing us by His blood!
Our mission here on Earth is to preach the saving gospel of Jesus!

Mark 4:12
so that "they may indeed see but not perceive, and may indeed hear but not understand, lest they should turn and be forgiven." 

2 Cor.4:4-6
4 In their case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.
5 For what we proclaim is not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, with ourselves as your servants for Jesus' sake.
6 For God, who said, "Let light shine out of darkness," has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

Who are you in Christ?

Mark 4:13-20
13 And he said to them, "Do you not understand this parable? How then will you understand all the parables?
14 The sower sows the word.
15 And these are the ones along the path, where the word is sown: when they hear, Satan immediately comes and takes away the word that is sown in them.
16 And these are the ones sown on rocky ground: the ones who, when they hear the word, immediately receive it with joy.
17 And they have no root in themselves, but endure for a while; then, when tribulation or persecution arises on account of the word, immediately they fall away.
18 And others are the ones sown among thorns. They are those who hear the word,
19 but the cares of the world and the deceitfulness of riches and the desires for other things enter in and choke the word, and it proves unfruitful.
20 But those that were sown on the good soil are the ones who hear the word and accept it and bear fruit, thirtyfold and sixtyfold and a hundredfold."

Christ and the gospel....
