THE QUESTION THAT WE AS AMERICANS MUST ASK OURSELVES, IS, WHY IS IT SO HARD FOR US TO DESIRE TO ASK OURSELVES WHETHER OR NOT WE ARE A TRUE CHRISTIAN OR JUST A PROFESSING CHRISTIAN, WHEN, IF THE BIBLE IS TRUE, THEN OUR SOUL IS AT STAKE? WOULDN’T ALL OF US AMERICANS WANT TO KNOW “FOR SURE” IF WE ARE GOING TO HEAVEN OR NOT? BUT WE ASK OUR FELLOW AMERICANS THIS QUESTION, THEY ALREADY HAVE THEIR SECURITY BLANKET ON, AND THUS THE CONVERSATION DROPS DEAD. SO WE ASK THE QUESTION, WHY IS IT, WE ARE SO COMFORTABLE THAT WE ARE FIT FOR HEAVEN WHEN THERE ARE SO MANY SCRIPTURES WARNING US THAT STRAIT IS THE GATE AND NARROW IS THE WAY. SO WHAT IF WE HAPPEN TO BE ONE OF THE FEW THAT IS CONCERNED THAT WE MIGHT BE UNFIT FOR HEAVEN AND ARE ACTUALLY CONCERNED THAT WE MIGHT BE UNFIT FOR HEAVEN, IS IT TRUE THAT IT IS NOT US THAT IS DRAWING US TO FIND OUT BUT OUR FATHER IN HEAVEN. Jn. 6: 44] NO MAN can COME to ME, EXCEPT the Father which hath sent me DRAW HIM: and I will raise him up at the last day. [65] And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me(JESUS) except it were GIVEN unto him of my Father(BEFORE THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD). SO IT APPEARS THAT IF WE ARE CONCERNED OF THE STATE OF OUR SOULS IT IS BECAUSE WE ARE BEING DRAWN TO THE TRUE JESUS AND NOT THE FAKE JESUS, WE SHOULD BE VERY THANKFUL. BUT HOW DO WE KNOW IF WE ARE BEING DRAWN TO THE TRUE JESUS AND NOT THE FAKE JESUS. JONATHON EDWARDS IN HIS BOOK, WHICH THE NARRATOR IS READING FROM IN THIS PODCAST GIVES US AN EXHAUSTIVE INSIGHT INTO WHETHER OR NOT WE ARE BEING DRAWN TO A FAKE JESUS OR THE TRUE JESUS. EVERY ONE OF US AMERICANS THAT IS INTERESTED IN THE STATE OF HIS SOUL SHOULD READ JONATHON EDWARDS BOOK ‘RELUGIOUS AFFECTIONS’ THOROUGHLY TO MAKE SURE WE HAVE NOT DECEIVED OURSELVES. BOTH JESUS AND FORMER MR. MORALITY WARN US ALSO TO EXAMINE OURSELVES, THAT IS THE STATE OF OUR SOUL.
FORMER MR. MORALITY WRITES:
2Cor. 11: [13] For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.
[14] And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
[15] Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.
2Cor. 13: [5] Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?
Heb. 6:[4] For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost,
[5] And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come,
[6] If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.
JESUS COMMANDS:
MATTHEW 7: [21] Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
[22] Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
[23] And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
[15] Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
[16] Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
[17] Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
[18] A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
[19] Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
[20] Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
FISHERMAN PETER WARNS US:
2Pet.2 1] But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, denying the Lord
