"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
[ Jeremiah 29:11 ]

CHRISTIAN! =)

Something VERY IMPORTANT
i almost forgot. This morning, ZM and i were MSN-ing about the End Of The World.

Just a thought: What will happen if the world ends tomorrow? What if Christ returns tomorrow? What if it happens in 10 minutes? (Leave your comments please!)
Haha.

Honestly, i'm feeling a wee bit scared. Not for myself because of the assurance of everlasting life i have from God's Word,

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
-- John 3:16 (KJV)

More so, i'm feeling slightly scared for my many loved ones. i don't wanna think about what would happen to them =x
But it is a fact. It is real.

However, all is not lost yet. By God's grace, the assurance of salvation is open to all.

- In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Genesis 1:1
- So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. Genesis 1:27
- However, "all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" Romans 3:23
- Sin: generally defined as rebellion against God. (a thorough explanation of sin will take quite some time)
- Because God is holy, sin is incompatible with His kingdom.
- For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 6:23
- "death" does not refer to physical death but spiritual death.
- If anyone's name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire. Revelations 20:15
- God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16
- Jesus was a perfect man -- without sin. And He was God
- Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. John 14:6
- But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8
- Jesus died and was raised from the dead 3 days later. "He is not here; he has risen, just as he said." Matthew 28:6a

Friends, it is not enough to know the above.
- We have to believe
Confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Romans 10:9
- We have to confess
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. 1 John 1:9
- We have to repent
Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord, Acts 3:19
- We have to follow Christ

Feel free to approach me if you would like to know more (or if you have made that important decision!) =)
Friends, my wish for you is to be able to experience this wonderful love, love beyond all the words in the world can describe =)
