Do you know the Lord?
The question above is the most important question that you
will answer.
"Do you know the Lord?"
Another way to phrase it is,
"Do you have a relationship with the Lord?"
Thank you for taking a few moments to reflect upon that question.
To know the Lord, means that you have:
Recognized that you are a sinner. Now that might not be a nice thing to say or make you feel warm and fuzzy inside and it certainly is not meeting the politically correctness of this world, but it is imperative that you realize that you/me/we all fall short of perfection and sin. Sin happens by what we do/our actions. Sin happens by what we don't do/our lack of action. Sin happens by what we think. (Yes, by what we think for as you think you will usually act.)
Realized
that Jesus is your only answer. He answers your need for
forgiveness of your sins. God came to this earth as Jesus who was fully
man and fully God. Jesus lived a sinless life, he suffered, died, and rose
again full body and ascended into heaven. By realizing that Jesus is your
only answer you understand that by Jesus' sacrifice on the cross cleanses you
from your sins and that his resurrection allows you to spend eternity in heaven.
Asked
Jesus to be the Lord and Savior of your life. We all have
lord's/gods in our lives - money, sex, work, television, gambling and on and on.
The creator of the heavens and the earth is the only true God. By asking
Jesus to be your Lord and Savior means that you realize that the items of this
world are useless to you and you want a better future. Your future on
earth will still have temptations, troubles and disappointments, but you will
know that you have a relationship with a God who loves you so much that He was
willing to pay your penalty for sin and provide the answer for your eternal
salvation.
