Steve Haycraft Jesus Teaches at the Feast. Jesus answered. My teaching is not my own it comes from him who sent me. If anyone chooses to do Gods will he will find out whether my teaching comes from God or whether I speak on my own. John 7:16-17 Jesus is saying. Ask the Father if his teachings were spoken through Jesus. If anyone hears and believes has eternal life.

@@chrisstevens1156 There is a huge difference between dying for all and those who are saved. The Bible does not teach that all are saved: You MUST be born again. "10 Whoever believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself. Whoever does not believe God has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has borne concerning his Son. 11 And this is the testimony, that God gave us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 12 Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life." Jesus Himself divides people into "sheep" and "goats" and is very clear about what will happen to them.

No, it means to change your mind about Sin BY turning from it. What did JESUS say? Go & SIN NO MORE (meaning Turn away & STOP) a change of direction & a change of lifestyle which comes directly from the change in spirit by REBIRTH & Indwelling of the Holy Spirit. Ephesians 1:13-14 KJV [13] In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, [14] Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.

Seek our Father and his understanding. Ask that his Wisdom lead us in his path of righteousness. Pray that our flight will not come in winter or on the sabbath. Ask the Father if his teachings were spoken through Jesus. Knock bless you Father for blessing us with your Son and name Jesus. Anyone who seeks will find. Anyone who asks will be given. Anyone who prays the plank will be taken from there eyes. Anyone who asks and hears have eternal life. Anyone who knocks the door will be open, in the name Jesus. So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the law and the Prophets. Matthew 7:12 Matthew 24:20 John 7:16-17 John 5:24 Jesus Teaches at the Feast Jesus answered. My teaching is not my own. It comes from him who sent me. If anyone chooses to do Gods will, he will find out whether my teaching comes from God or whether I speak on my own. Life Through the Son Jesus gave them this answer. I tell you the truth, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed over from death to life.

It all comes down to the saving grace of Jesus Christ. Repent of your sins, receive Jesus as your Lord and Savior, and believe he was raised from the dead signifying His deity. If works could get you into Heaven, then Jesus died for nothing. The devil will always try and deceive you about your salvation. Resist the devil and he will flee. Put Christ first in all that you do, and your works will be a result of the gratitude to show for the grace and love Jesus has given you, which is eternal life.

If you and your spouse were separated, and your spouse was ready to take you back...How do you think your spouse would receive you if you showed up at the door with me behind you telling you what to say? If a sinner is truly convicted and has godly sorrow the sinner will tell God in their own words with no prompting from us.

The pastor is right that the concept of praying a prayer or "asking Jesus into your heart" is not what gives true salvation.True salvation takes place once a person "believes" in the finished work of Jesus Christ in death, burial and resurrection of our sins. It is much better to base our assurance on the finished work of Jesus Christ and His trustworthy promises of eternal life. Jesus promises that whoever believes in him has everlasting life (John 3:16; 5;24; 6:47). This is the simplicity of the gospel.

This pastor has got it right. There's not many pastors preaching this message today. Asking Jesus into your heart has nothing to do with salvation. The true gospel for us today is clearly stated by the apostle Paul in 1 Corinthians 15 v 1 - 4. The death burial and resurrection of the lord Jesus Christ is what we need to believe in for salvation today. Not asking Jesus into your heart nor giving Jesus your heart nor making a commitment to Christ saves you. Salvation is a gift. You can't give God anything for his free gift of salvation.

Do not listen to this man. He is a calvinist. If you want to be saved, confess Jesus as your Savior and trust in Him for your righteousness and salvation. This man is a roadblock for many. He can't know for sure because he had nothing to do with his salvation. He believes that only a few elect people were chosen by God to believe. Since he had nothing to do with it including believing, for all he knows he is a reprobate who God ordained to believe and fall away. This man preaches a false gospel. Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved Look up this man's name with Leighton flowers. Do not listen to this man anymore. 1 john i indeed written to know that you have eternal life. The Spirit testifies you are His and the only way you can know for certain that you can be saved, is if Jesus died for everyone. This man does not believe that. He is a calvinist.

Salvation is simple. I'ts not found in the book of the Gospel of John where they were still under the law. It is found in the epistles of our apostle Paul. Rom. chapters 3-4, Cor 15:1-4 The gospel is believing that Jesus died on the cross for your sins, was buried and rose for our justification. Believing this and putting your trust in this gospel is what saves you. It's not accepting Jesus, or asking him into your heart. These are made up sayings for kids to try to make it simple but is not found in the bible. You want Jesus to accept you by putting your trust in His finished work on the cross. Not by accepting Him. The gospel during this age of grace is only found in Paul's' epistles. Eph 2:8,9; Titus 3:5-6. Read the whole bible but start in the book of Roman's where we see our selves as sinner in need of a Savior without works of any kind. That is way it is called grace.

If I may say so, as a Christian, you may "stop asking Jesus into your heart", because there is no such thing in the Holy Bible, or in the gospel of Christ. According to the Bible, the gospel of Christ is the power of God unto salvation, but those who preach another gospel are accursed. This is how to obey the gospel of Christ, according to the Bible: "Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost." Acts 2:38

Mr. Greear, the reason for your constant doubt concerning your salvation, is due in whole to seeking salvation in a way that is not supported by scripture, there is not a "sinners pray" anywhere in scripture, and there is not even a concept of a prayer that will lead a person to salvation. You sir make the claim that you do not want to get this wrong, I agree, this is the most important step that anyone will ever take. I encourage you sir to seek further of how a person can can be saved and what Paul is speaking of in 2 Thessalonians 1:8. What sir is the gospel that Paul is speaking of, and how can a person obey it?

Repent and believe the gospel does not save anyone. Those who are saved are also the ones that God has added to His church Acts 2;47. The ones who are saved, are the ones who believe that Jesus died and rose again and were then baptized Mark 16:16. Exact obedience has always been required of God's people, exact obedience to the gospel will give a person the assurance that they need and want for their salvation.
