Nobody goes to hell because of sin


     This might sound like a contradiction to what you used to hear but it is the gospel truth. The problem of sin is over whosoever that is sinning doing so because of his nature. In Romans 5:12 “…by one man sin entered into the world and death by sin and so death passed upon all men for that all have sinned.”  So, sin is an inherit nature from Adam, it does not matter if you are born into a Christian family or non- Christian family all have sinned. Let see what Romans 5:14 says, “Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam’s transgression,…”  so the same sin of Adam was what made everyone on earth sinners so the sin you commit daily is because of that nature in you. Nobody can be free from the problem of sin on their own so everybody is a sinner.
                                                       The redemption work of Jesus Christ
    God saw that man can’t help himself or free himself from sin and He brought Jesus Christ. John 3:16, “for God so love the world that He gave His only begotten son…” He gave His son to destroy the works of darkness, to destroy the power of sin in the world and the lives of men, to destroy sickness. Jesus did not come to make us religious. Jesus came to make us righteous, He gave us His life so can be righteous of God in Him. Romans 5:15 “…for if through the offence of one many be dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift of grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many.” Christ brought the grace of God to man.
     So, rejecting the work of Christ in the cross of Calvary will cost you your life. Heb. 2:3, “How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation…” it is accepting Christ in your life that can take you to heaven. It is not self-righteous which has never pleased God from the beginning and will never today. Knowing Jesus as your Lord and saviour is what matters to God. If you are reading this message and you don’t know Jesus as Lord and savior, you are out of phase and you are going to find it hot in hell.  Romans 5:17, “For as by man’s offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.

How to follow Jesus

                  Following Jesus is not going to church always, it is not praying always, it is not reading the bible always etc. although, all these activities are good but they do not make one a follower of Christ Jesus. Matthew 19:16-21, the rich young ruler was perfect in all of them yet something was missing which was the most important one. In the book of John 3:1 Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jew, was disqualified in spite of his knowledge of the law.              What is following Jesus? So, what is following Jesus? Following Jesus Christ is living by the word of God. Luke 4:4 and Jesus answered him saying man shall not live by bread alone, by every word of God. This is living your life according to the direction of the Word of God. It is abiding in the word of God or Jesus. John 15:4-5.     Steps to follow  ·          You must believe in Jesus Christ, John 3:16   ·          You must be born again John 3:3 ·          You must have faith in God. Heb 11:1-6 ·

Salvation is for the Living

     Some people have asked if Christians could intercede on behalf of a person who died without receiving Christ, so such a person could go to heaven instead of hell. The answer is No. “For the grave cannot praise thee, death cannot celebrate thee: they that go down into the pit cannot hope for thy truth. The living, the living, he shall praise thee, as I do this day: the father to the children shall make known thy truth” Isaiah 38:18-19. Anyone who didn’t receive Christ while on earth stands condemned. In John 3:18, Jesus said, “… but he that believeth not is condemned already….”   So, the one who dies without knowing Christ, died in condemnation, and it would be of no use praying for such a one to go to heaven because the choice of whether to make heaven or not is personal one.   It’s important to realize that the salvation message is for the living and not the dead. You can only receive Christ as Lord and Saviour in response to the Gospel while you’re still in the earth. Jesus

Keys to Effectual Prayers

  And it came to pass, that, as he was praying in a certain place, when he ceased, one of his disciples said unto him. Lord, teach us to pray… (Lake 11:1)   When you study the lives of the early prophets and the apostles, even the Lord Jesus Christ, you’d find they were very effective in their prayer lives. In our opening verse, disciples asked Him to teach them how to pray because they observed His prayers' effectiveness. So, it’s not just enough to pray; it’s the effectual, fervent prayer of the righteous man that produces results.   There’re scriptural rules and guidelines for effectual prayers. There are some things you have to pray about continually, you intercede continually; and there’re things that you pray for only once because if you keep praying about them, you’re getting into unbelief, rather than applying faith.    Meanwhile, there’re things you’re not even supposed to pray for, because no matter how long you pray about them, God is not going to respond becaus
