I just want you to read this and tell me what you think


I wanted to share this with you. Is Jesus the only way to get to God? We did not invent the claim of Jesus being the only way. This is not our claim; it is His. Jesus said, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father, but through Me” (John 14:6, NASB) and, “For unless you believe that I am He, you shall die in your sins” (John 8:24, NASB). The apostle Peter echoed these words, “Neither is their salvation in any other: for there is no other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved” (Acts 4:12, KJV). Paul said, “There is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus”(I Timothy 2:5, KJV). It is therefore the united testimony of the New Testament that no one can know God the Father except through Jesus Christ.
The bond between man and nature was broken, with the ground producing thorns and thistles and the animal world no longer being benevolent (Genesis 3:17, 18). Man also became separated from himself, with a feeling of emptiness and incompleteness, something he had not experienced before the fall. However, God promised to make all these things right and gave His word that He would send a Saviour, or Messiah, who would deliver the entire creation from the bondage of sin (Genesis 3:15). The Old Testament kept repeating the theme that someday this person would come into the world and set mankind free.
God’s Word did come true. God became a man in the person of Jesus Christ (John 1:14, 29). Jesus eventually died in our place in order that we could enjoy again a right relationship with God. The Bible says, “God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself” and “he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him” (II Corinthians 5:19, 21, KJV).
Jesus has paved the way for you! God has done it all, and our responsibility is to accept that fact. We can do nothing to add to the work of Jesus; it has all been done for us. How do you become a Christian? Believe that you are loved and accepted by God. Admit that you are a sinner. Acknowledge your sins. It’s not enough to admit that you have sinned. You must regret those sins and then turn away from them. Repenting is asking God to forgive your sins and turning away from them. Commit your life to Christ.
When I was six years old my dad died so, I accepted God as my savior because my mom said that it's better to do life with God. You could say I loved praying and talking to God when I was six, but I didn't really know what it meant. When I was nine years old I started to realize who God was and that I needed Him. A couple of days before my brother died in the hospital, I remember that my siblings and I were over at a friend's house because we needed someone to watch us while our parents were at the hospital, and we had school the next day. I was so tired of crying and worrying about my brother, so I asked God to give me rest and help clear my mind. That next day I slept in, and the daughter of my parent's friend woke me up and said, "It's a snow day", (it was dry the day before) (December). I knew that God was giving me rest and all my school worries went away. When my brother died on December 20th a week before Christmas, I did not get mad at God instead, I thanked Him for the time I had with my brother and knowing that I'll see him soon. I knew that God was a morning with me. Even though God gets to have my brother, He knows that I still have to go through the pain.
People blame God for the things that happen to them because they can and because it's someone to blame. God lets things happen for a reason. That reason is to grow other people. I learned that at the age of nine. I would not be the person I am today if that didn't happen. Many people say they don't believe in God, then they say "it's God's fault, why did God do this? I hate him". Why are you blaming Him when you don't believe in him? It's not fair. When someone dies in a person's life we get mad instead of realizing it's a part of life, we live in a fallen world. I remember this story where there was a pastor that was going to die because of cancer and he kept saying that he was going to be healed. Soon he died. His kids were confused and frustrated. They became mad at God. They didn't realize that God did heal him, he is now in heaven and has no pain. Today his kids don't want anything to do with God. I met one of his kids and we are good friends today but, I can never talk about the thing that is most important to me, which is God.
God wants you to be a part of His movement, whether you accept Him or not just remember He is in your DNA. If you are an atheist you are saying that life has no creator, that is like saying that a book can create its self there is not an author and there is no planning or thought behind the words or how many pages there are.
