Must I Go To Church?
June 8, 2021
As someone who just started his journey in the Lord, the first step is getting to know Him and Pastor Chris explains in detail
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved (Romans 10:9).
To be born again, the first requirement is to affirm the Lordship of Jesus Christ. “Lord” means master, controller, instructor, caretaker, and leader. Jesus Christ being Lord of your life means He’s your master and controller; He guides your actions, your thinking, and everything about your life; howbeit, in love.
When He becomes Lord of one’s life, everything changes; your life is transformed completely. Those of us who’ve been in this awesome fellowship and love- relationship with Jesus can testify accordingly. He’s all love; all He ever does and wants to do is love you. He holds nothing, and will never hold anything against you. He loves you more than you love yourself, and He’s more passionate about your success than you could ever be.
Some people have difficulty accepting Jesus Christ as Lord of their lives, because they don’t know Him and how much He loves them. Some Jews, for instance, find it hard to confess His lordship as it is in Scriptures because that would mean that Jesus is “Jehovah,” “Adonai,” or “Yahweh” of the Bible.
The Jews understand that to confess Jesus Christ as Lord is to confess that He was the One that appeared to Moses in the burning bush; He was the One that fed them with manna in the wilderness and the One that gave the Ten Commandments to Moses. That’s too much for the Jewish mind to comprehend, for it means Jesus is Himself, God. But He is for sure! He said, in John 14:9, “…he that has seen me has seen the Father….”
Colossians 2:9 says in Him dwells the totality (fullness) of the Godhead bodily. He’s more than a great Teacher, Rabbi, or Prophet; He’s Lord of all (Acts 10:36). And He came to save you.
If you haven’t yet made Jesus the Lord of your life, kindly say the “Prayer Of Salvation” below and mean the words with all your heart, and God will hear you, and instantly, eternal life will be imparted to your spirit. Glory to God! (Culled from the Rhapsody of Realities)
CONFESSION
I believe with my heart and confess with my mouth that Jesus Christ, the embodiment and fullest revelation of God’s love is Lord of my Life! I’m awakened to the fatherhood of God, having put on the new man, which after God, is created in righteousness and true holiness. I keep my roots deep in Him, waxing stronger in faith. Blessed be God!
