WHAT MUST I DO?

By Rick Mathes

Acts 16:30 (NASB77) ³⁰  and after he brought them out, he said, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?”

Oh, how I pray that I have the privilege of leading that last soul to a saving knowledge of Jesus as Savior and Lord. Can you even imaging the sky exploding with angels and His glorious return to at last be King of His creation without Father Lucifer and his fallen demons.

It all starts with a simple belief in Him. Face it. When all the facts are considered, it takes a thousand times more relief in absurdities than a simple trust in the proven salvation or Jesus; it’s that simple. Just trust and obey Him until you can find a “plan B” that is superior. How much fairer can I get? But if your god can’t raise himself from the dean, you have a dead god. AMEN?

Once your brain finally believes your heart needs to follow. It has to be the real thing. You can’t fake being a Christian in the face of real Christians and Christ. You can’t be part pregnant any more than you can be part Christian.

So simply come to Him and be at peace. As soon as you come into His presence you will know you know. There is no doubt or fear left in you when you exchange all you are for all He is. You leave your second nature to sin and enter your original first nature of holiness.

Doubt and fear leave you and you are replaced by belief and trust. I have been a Christian for many years and I can say categorically that Jesus has never let me down. I have no ulterior motive to pen these short writings but to have you know and experience the love and joy I have in my heart.

Put your ear to the Word of God and hear His love letter to you. Listen, learn, apply and then evaluate. This will make you stand still, drop your jaw and look to Him. You can cut any page of the Bible and it will bleed His precious blood. More than loving, ponder on what you see.

Your only option at this point will be to yield to Him. When Jesus speaks through His Word you need to carefully take notes and apply His lessons to your life. You will grow and notice that it only hurts when you grow. But praise God, Jesus never steps into the same stream twice and neither should you. Even a jailer can be saved!
