1 John 4:1-6(TMSG)
1My dear friends, don’t believe everything you hear. Carefully weigh and examine what people tell you. Not everyone who talks about God comes from God. There are a lot of lying preachers loose in the world.
2Here’s how you test for the genuine Spirit of God. Everyone who confesses openly his faith in Jesus Christ—the Son of God, who came as an actual flesh-and-blood person—comes from God and belongs to God.
3And everyone who refuses to confess faith in Jesus has nothing in common with God. This is the spirit of antichrist that you heard was coming. Well, here it is, sooner than we thought!
4My dear children, you come from God and belong to God. You have already won a big Victory over those false teachers, for the Spirit in you is far stronger than anything in the world.
5These people belong to the Christ-denying world. They talk the world’s language and the world eats it up.
6But we come from God and belong to God. Anyone who knows God understands us and listens. The person who has nothing to do with God will, of course, not listen to us. This is another test for telling the Spirit of Truth from the spirit of deception. God Is Love
Have you wondered why others can play at being saved but you can't? Jesus came and made his home in you! that's why! A lot of times people see the gospel as a way to make a profit. So they give it lip service.It's really not a living Gospel to them, they look at it as a book of words and not a book of lives. I've even had conversations with people that say it's no more than a fable, mythology or a made up story. It really saddens me people can look around at all of creation and think it just happened. take some time today, revisit your decision and see if the the words in Revelation or John apply to you
Revelation 3:15-16(TMSG)
15“I know you inside and out, and find little to my liking. You’re not cold, you’re not hot—far better to be either cold or hot!
16You’re stale. You’re stagnant. You make me want to vomit.
John 15:9-10(TMSG)
9“I’ve loved you the way my Father has loved me. Make yourselves at home in my love.
10If you keep my commands, you’ll remain intimately at home in my love. That’s what I’ve done—kept my Father’s commands and made myself at home in his love.
When you invited Jesus into your life, the strongest force ever came and made His home in You! Live in victory today and be a blessing, Sir Gregory
