Ok maybe you aren’t just being starry eyed. Maybe you have been living together for a while and truly believe it is time to make the union a legal and formal bond. That is absolutely wonderful! No matter what anyone says, there is something special about being married to each other and not just living together.

Now, in some countries the government will not require the couple to undergo any marriage seminars. In most religions and in countries that do not have divorce however marriage counseling is actually mandatory before couples can get married. After all in these countries or faiths, marriage truly is meant to be for life. That being the case, everyone wants to make sure that the pair goes in with their eyes wide open and not covered by rose colored glasses.

Marriage is no joke. It can be fun, exciting, sweet, passionate and absolutely wonderful. It can also be a lot of work. Keep in mind that you are adjusting your life to another person’s; someone who you love but is still different from you in a number of ways. Marriage can be a rude awakening for some. It isn’t only about the gown and the ceremony and saying, “I do”.

Face it folks, we don’t always, in fact more often than not, we don’t listen to our parents. They may or may not be good examples of how marriages work. They may or may not be together so you may not have a real picture of what is involved, just the glamorized ideal that movies and books show to the general public.

There are organizations like Worldwide Marriage Encounter (WME) that try to give couples a real look at being married. They have special courses such as the evenings for the engaged where a couple meets regularly with an affianced pair in the WME or “encountered” couples home. The WME couple will discuss various things that the affianced pair may or may not have thought about yet. For example, what is the significance of money in the relationship? Is money supposed to be pooled and shared or should it be only the male’s income that is spent since he is the breadwinner or head of the family?

How about work? Should the wife continue to work if the husband is earning well enough to support them both? Would they prefer that she stay home and become mother and wife full time? Why?

These questions may seem trivial to some but in the long run, these can be major issues that can lead to separation or divorce. It is best to discuss these matters before any vows are made not after. It can save you a lot of heartache. Why not find out what are the available marriage counseling groups in your area? What have you got to lose? They may even help to make your good relationship great.

The stress of the wedding can be like that rock in your shoe
while you’re strolling through the beautiful country,
demanding all your attention and time, and keeping the two
of you from enjoying each other and tending to your
relationship. Keep in mind to plan past the wedding, not
just up to the big day. There will certainly be more to your
life than having put this wedding together. Yes, the wedding
day is important, but more importantly, in the larger picture
of your life, the wedding is only the beginning of your life as
a married couple–it is not the main substance that creates
a long, healthy relationship. What creates a long, healthy
relationship is what you do after you say I do.

Like married couples everywhere, you may find yourself
pressured by the demands of daily life: work, children,
finances, household chores and commitments to extended
family. When the pressure is on, always remember what
brought the two of you together in the first place. This will
help you to not take each other for granted, which can often
happen after two people have been together for a long time.
This does not mean the love is fading, but it does mean that
there is lack of effort. People tend to get lazy after a while,
because they feel comfortable and safe. This problem can
be solved when both people are willing to make the time
and effort.

Nurturing your relationship, enhancing it, and keeping it
flourishing takes time, which is all too precious for many
couples. Just because something is not urgent doesn’t
mean it’s not important. So take the time to have a regular
daily chat, turn off the TV and the cell phone and sit together
for a short time, uninterrupted and face-to-face, every day to
share your thoughts and feelings. Tell each other the little
details as well as the big news. Focusing on each other for
as little as fifteen minutes a day can make a huge
difference. You will both feel appreciated and heard.

Meet at the park for a walk, treat each other to a movie, have
a bubble bath, have brunch at a cozy café, steal each other
from work and have a quiet lunch, rendezvous after work for
a drink and an appetizer before dinner, commute together if
at all possible, dance in your kitchen. Whether you’re dining
out or having a picnic dinner on the living room floor, make it
special. It doesn’t have to be expensive, just generous. The
anticipation of a planned evening or activity can be fun and
exciting, even if (especially if) you’ve been together for a long
time. By making a date, you’ll set aside the special time
your relationship deserves and consistently rediscover the
romance that started it all.

Everyone is independent in their own beliefs and ideas
about things, so don’t expect a person to always see things
your way. That’s why patience is golden to a healthy
relationship. There are times when your partner will not
respond in a way that is pleasing to you, but this does not
mean you have to take it personally. Always slow down,
take a deep breath and think of reasons why your partner
may be acting a certain way. Assuming and jumping to
conclusions is always an unhealthy step to take because it
shows your partner that they are not entitled to act freely. It
shows that you automatically assume the worst of them
and this can cause them to feel attacked. Give your partner
some time and let them know that you will be there for them
when they are ready to talk.

You are the result of the choices you’ve made so far. So
remember to appreciate each other for the fact that your past
thoughts, words and actions have led you both to one
another. You found each other to inspire one another to be
even finer and more joyful than you would have been alone.
So don’t wait till special occasions like birthdays or
Valentine’s day to get romantic–don’t stop the flowers,
surprise gifts, love notes, spontaneous adventures, hours of
talking and, you know, that other stuff. Use romance as a
way of making the “everyday” exciting. It doesn’t take a lot of
money or effort–just a willingness to commit to making your
relationship special by paying attention to it. Just because
you’re now married does not mean you have to stop dating
each other.

The first thing that you’ll want is gift sachets for all of your guests. The supplies that you’ll need for these sachets are a roll of white fabric mesh and a large roll of silver curling ribbon. Now that you have the material for the gift bag itself, you’ll want to fill the sachet. At your local gift shop you can purchase flavored mints or flavored jelly beans in bulk. Make sure that you have enough for all of your sachets. If you have 150 guests, you’ll need at least 150 sachets. One for every place setting.

Now that you’ve purchased your materials and goodies you can start making your wedding favors. Cut the mesh approximately five inches in length (you’ll be folding it in half and filling it with your candies). Put your candies into the mesh, twist it, and tie it with the silver ribbon. Once you’ve finished filling all of wedding favor gift sachets, you can curl the loose ribbons with a scissor.

In addition to the wedding favor sachets, you can purchase small containers in bulk for bubbles. If you purchase 2 extra large containers of bubbles, it should be enough to fill the small containers. Remember, this all depends on the size of your wedding. If you are expecting an enormous amount of people this may not be feasible. Instead, you could always use extra mesh and fill it with rice.

While table top decorations may not seem like wedding favors–they can easily become favors at the end of the night. Take for instance the idea of glass vases fill with water, colored marbles, and a multi-colored fish. It’s a fairly inexpensive idea, as one vase can be used per table. At the end of the night, the children can decide which fish they’d like to take home with them. Nevertheless, they add a touch of elegance and tranquility to the atmosphere all evening long.

As you can see, you can come up with a lot of great ideas that are fairly inexpensive. All you need is time and creativity. Today, wedding favors are used to express a warm “thank you” to the guests that joined together to share your special day. Whatever it is that you decide to use for wedding favors, your “thank you” will be expressed with sweet sentiments.

In today’s world, it seems that almost any topic is open for debate. While I was gathering facts for this article, I was quite surprised to find some of the issues I thought were settled are actually still being openly discussed. Snakes

The following article covers a topic that has recently moved to center stage–at least it seems that way. If you’ve been thinking you need to know more about it, here’s your opportunity.

Snakes can be great pets for anyone who’s looking for a docile animal that requires very little care. Some of the most common snakes as pets are: Boa Constrictors, Pythons, Cornsnakes, Kingsnakes, Milksnakes, Gopher Snakes, Rat Snakes, Ribbon Snakes & Garter Snakes. Snakes can be found all around the world and are commonly found in tropical locations.

Hopefully the information presented so far has been applicable. You might also want to consider the following:

It’s really a good idea to probe a little deeper into the subject of Snakes. What you learn may give you the confidence you need to venture into new areas.

Cows, monkeys and dogs are revered by some cultures yet consumed as food by others. So, too, snakes are respected in some parts of the world and despised in others. The way that people feel about snakes is heavily influenced by cultural beliefs and mythology.

Other cultures have associated snakes with medicinal powers or rebirth. In India, cobras were regarded as reincarnations of important people called Nagas. Our modern medical symbol of two snakes wrapped around a staff, or ‘caduceus,’ comes from ancient Greek mythology. According to the Greeks, the mythical figure Aesculapius discovered medicine by watching as one snake used herbs to bring another snake back to life.

So now you know a little bit about Snakes. Even if you don’t know everything, you’ve done something worthwhile: you’ve expanded your knowledge.

When word gets around about your command of Snakes facts, others who need to know about Snakes will start to actively seek you out.

However, the right wedding invitation need not cost an arm and a leg. It is not wise to spend a fortune that can be used somewhere else. The range of kinds and styles of discount wedding invitation is vast. Choosing a particular one can be very confusing. There are discount wedding invitations and if you follow the guidelines below you will definitely never go wrong in choosing one. The key is to be prudent and not letting yourself get carried away. You can even save more money if you follow these guidelines.

Choose wedding invitation style well. As mentioned earlier, your primary consideration in choosing a wedding invitation style is the theme and motif of your wedding. Is your wedding grad or simple? Will your wedding be light or formal? Other than that, it all depends on personal taste and budget. But whatever your taste or budget range is, you will definitely be able to find a good wedding invitation. If you want, you can even buy some cards and design your own invitation by buying a printing kit which is offered by some wedding service providers.

Determine the kind of wedding you’ll have. Your type of wedding invitation will largely depend on whether you will have a traditional or modern wedding. Traditional weddings would require a more formal invitation. On the other hand, a modern wedding will call for a more modern kind of wedding invitation. Traditional wedding invitations would only contain texts. It wouldn’t contain any graphics. Traditional wedding invitations are usually upright and folded with the words engraved on the right side. Cards used in traditional wedding invitations are usually white or cream and the letterings are in silver and black. If you are having a themes wedding then choose a wedding invitation that is appropriate for your chosen theme. For example, you can have a sixteenth century scrolled parchment wedding invitation if the theme of your wedding is Tudor.

Choosing a supplier. Wedding invitations can be obtained by mail order, printer, stationers and stationery designers or you can buy online. Choose a supplier hat provides value added services and features so you will get real value for your money. Some suppliers will help you right the wording in your wedding invitation. Some will even help you with wedding etiquette rules and would help you if you are confused about all the etiquette rules involved in sending out wedding invitations. It would also be nice if the supplier has trained and experienced wedding etiquette and social correctness experts. Choose a supplier that offers personalized service so you can be sure that you are not getting run of the mill wedding invitation.

A good discount wedding invitation supplier will also respond to your inquiries and requests promptly either through email or by phone. But your privacy must always be requested so make sure that any personal information you provide to them is used for the sole purpose of processing your order. Your order must be transmitted across a secure server, so your billing information is kept private.

The Old Testament is recognized by Jews and as well as Christians.
The New Testament consists of books recognized by the Christian Church from the 4th century. The Roman Catholic Bible also includes the Apocrypha.

The first English Translation of the Bible was by Miles Coverdale ( a priest) in 1535. The Authorised or King James Version followed in 1611.

The Authorised Bible was revised in 1959 by The British and Foreign Bible Society. This was named The Revised Standard version and was widely used and very popular because of the more simple written form. The language in The King James version although beautiful and poetic was at times difficult to understand especially for children. Another revision was taking place around the same time. This was to be known as The New English Bible. The New Testament part of The New English Bible first appeared in 1961 and The Old Testament and the Apocrypha was published in 1970.

Since the publication of these translations many others have appeared on the market. Amongst them are The Living Bible, The Good News Bible and The New International Version. The latter first appeared in 1973 and was later revised in 1983.
The choice of Bibles today is extensive and is very much a matter of personal choice. There are study Bibles, Children’s Bibles, Large Print Bibles, Teenage Bibles, Reference Bibles, Devotional Bibles and many others.

The members of the study group I attend use a great variety of translations. We often share readings and compare the text from them. We feel that by doing this we gain better insight and a richer understanding of the passage under discussion. We have preferences for different translations which works well in our group. My preference at this stage is The New International Version but I use other translations as well.

We study many different materials in our group. Some of our recent studies have been
“Forty Days of Purpose” by Rick Warren from the Saddleback Bible Study series. We have studied several of the Disciple Studies. I have been involved with two. “Under the Tree of Life” and “Remember who you are”. These studies have been excellent. We have also studied two books by Philip Yancey “Soul Survivor” and “What’s so amazing about Grace?” Both of these books have been stimulating and interesting to study. Another worthwhile book to study is “Praying our Goodbyes” by Joyce Rupp.
We have also done a series of studies on Intercessory Prayer.

All of these studies plus many others used over the years have produced stimulating conversations, soul searching and a greater degree of knowledge of the scriptures.

Through this I have gained strength which has enabled me to cope better through some difficult situations My faith continues to grow as we share.

A strong Christian faith can help through many difficult times in your life. Refer to http://www.bible7.com for further information regarding the Bible.

To say that governments are moving away from religion; oh, well yes it is true that most governments are moving away from their religions. Some, myself included think this is wonderful as so many of these religions are absolutely problematic. Additionally we need to discuss the civilizations laws and which religions are in place and how they conflict to adequately discuss this topic. In nations with only one religion there can be quite huge issues with civil rights, pursuit of happiness and self-determination issues.

In the United Sates we have so many religions and therefore no one has claimed power over the government. Our system of laws in the US are a somewhat good model although need refinement and perhaps other nations can learn from us as they distance themselves from the religions that previously ruled over them. We really need one set of worldwide laws as the world is getting closer together every decade. Even Bird Flu knows no boundaries. If religion left our Earth it could perhaps be a much nicer place. Consider the reasons and the value in the separation of church and state and the religious freedom in the United States.

To help explain what seems like a contradiction we can turn to a single verse of scripture for the answer. In 2Timothy 3:16 the Bible says…”All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.” This passage clearly says that all scripture, Old Testament and New Testament is inspired. It does not say that all scripture is of equal importance. Common sense would tell anyone that the genealogies of say Genesis are not as important as the words Christ spoke in the Sermon on the Mount. Most Christians get this confused. To avoid this is to understand that while all scripture is equally inspired, nowhere does the Bible say that all scripture is equally important. In fact it says the very opposite.

Let’s take a side bar and find out what this “inspiration of God” is that Timothy speaks about. We can’t look to the liberals for any understanding on this subject because they are not sure that all the scripture is equally inspired. Some think the Bible is only inspired in spots. Thus the old saying that the liberal needs to be inspired, so he or she can spot the spots. For the rest of us there are mainly two commonly held beliefs about inspiration. In the smaller of the two groups are those who believe that inspiration came to men by a means called, dynamical inspiration. In short that means that God just laid the message he had in mind on the prophet or apostle, and let each one write or speak the idea pretty much in their own way and with their own personal use of their language. The more widely accepted view is called, plenary verbal inspiration. This is that God chose every single word, every phrase, every jot and every title from and through each person he was using. Since the astounding discovery of the “Bible Codes” it is very hard for any thinking person to veer very far away from the idea of plenary verbal inspiration.

From the most learned Bible scholar to the Christian rank and file, one thing is commonly agreed upon. We all know that the Old Testament points toward the coming of the Savior and the New Testament points backwards to the same person. Wouldn’t that make him the most important person in the Bible? If so, wouldn’t it follow that his words would be the most important words in the Bible? But if any doubt yet remains let us go directly to this all important person in the Bible and see if he addresses the subject.

Jesus put his own words in a class by themselves. He said his words could produce “life” and others like Peter quite on their own agreed with him. John 6:68 KJV But that’s not all he said about his words. He bumped them up another notch when he said that his words would be the judge of every man woman and child that ever was born. He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day. John 12:48 KJV

Of the infinite number of words written or spoken in this world, including those in the Bible, his stand alone in importance. The bottom line isn’t a diatribe about how we should handle this obvious fact it is rather a single, simple but all important injunction…pay attention!

THIRD WORLD COUNTRY LEADER CREATS STRIFE

A “young dark man” will arise as a leader in a Third World country; his main goal is to unite the other Third World countries to do battle with the superpowers. The area of conflict will be in Eastern Europe and the Middle East, particularly around the Adriatic and the Caspian seas and the eastern Mediterranean. No definite winner will emerge but the strife will help set the stage for the Antichrist. Some prophecies in the Bible refer to events in this region ( Israel will be involved).

Prophet Goodnews Adolphus earlier predicted the Tsunami and the hurican disaster in his prediction of 2004 which was published in the website of Reeds Neutical Almanacs in the month of July 2004 captioned ” Message about the release of Sadaam Husain ” and a copy of the message was sent to the White House, the CNN, BBC, VOA ec for a warning of the coming global disaster in respect of the release of Sadam Husain to go back and rule the people of Iraq now with the fear of God adding that God had pardon him of all his sins and if the U.S ignored this warning message will face the anger of God.

The tsunami and the hurricane are lined together. The costal regions of Asia were affected by the Tsunami while the hurricane affected the gulf cost of the United States. In the predictions July, 2004, he indicated that, God’s nuclear weapon will explode spiritually and will manifest in the form of great earthquakes (the tsunami earthquake) and shall affect other countries around the world. There shall be great flood which shall sweep the United States and will last for several days. It was later revealed that Prophet Nutradamus had also predicted the tsunami disaster that will strike from the Indian Ocean(see Nutradamus and the Indian Ocean disaster in search engines)while prophet Goodnews Adolphus predicted of the great earthquake and the flood that will sweep the United States.

Since the prophecy of Nutradamus was shown to me in a vision as I stated in my prediction of 2004 it is now very evidence that Prophet Nutradamus had as well predicted of Prophet Goodnews Adolphus global prophetic ministries in the end times who shall come from a third world country as a “YOUNG DARK LEADER” who is to do battle with the Supper Powers; according to Nutradamus, the area of conflict will be the Eastern European and the Middle East…..no definite winner will emerge but the strife will set the stage for the antichrist and that some prophecies in the bible refer events in this regions and Israel will be involve. In the above prophecy of Nutradamus, the third world countries cannot gather themselves to do battle with the Super Powers in any manner rather the young dark leader will become their spiritual leader who shall use his prophetic office as it happened in the days of Moses when Egypt was at that time a world power.

Similarly, prophet Isaiah predicted the coming of the African Prophet who is to liberate the oppressed Egyptians which represent the entire Africa (Isa 19:20). The book of Revelation revealed the coming of the combined prophetic powers of Moses and Elijah in Africa; meaning that an end-time global prophet is to minister under the anointing of prophet Elijah and Moses clothed in sack clothed(meaning clothed) in the skin of the blacks or as a young dark man according to Nutradamus. According to the book of Revelation, this end-time global prophet is to prophesy for 1260 days but shall be killed(literally ceased to operate for a while and to be re-enforced for the final battle of Armageddon like in the days of Samson); but the antichrist shall defeat him and his dead body shall lie in the street of the great city spiritually called “SODOM AND EGYPT ” in Africa where his Lord was killed(meaning there shall be another Jerusalem in Africa in which the temple of Ezekiel shall be built since no prophet shall arise out of Israel as the Lord predicted whom they rejected and killed in Israel (Rev. 11:1-13)

Prophet Nutradamus stated that the young dark prophet shall do battle with the supper powers and prophet Goodnews Adolphus had stated this global prophetic ministries since as far back of 1986 before the discovery of the second set of nutradamus prophecies late in 2004 which contained the prediction of the dark young leader. Prophet Goodnews Deinma Adolphus was born on the 19th of May, 1960 aged 45 at the time of writing this article started his prophetic ministry at the age of 12 being the fist son of a barren mother. At the age of 21 in his in his dream he spiritually appeared in a wilderness known to him as the wilderness of John the Baptist who ministered in the spirit and power of Elijah in Israel. In that wilderness, the heaven opened and the angel of God descended to him with a scroll containing several quotations of the prophecies in the bible to interpret and re-prophesy them to the modern world in respect of their fulfillment since those ancient names and places have changed in the end-time programme as preachers of the bible still focusing their attentions in those ancient names and places mentioned and in order to be kept abbess and to follow-up of the end-time events.

Then in July, 1984, in a vision, the mantle of the prophet Elijah descended to me as a thick hairy blanket of rainbow color which dropped on the branch of a tree very lower to the ground and I picked it up. From that day I received the mantle, the vibration of the power in the mantle started affected my physical body like hot gases coming out of my eyes, ears and mouth and my eyes were opened to receiving visions from the holy bible being dramatize to me again to enable me have an indebt understanding of that particular passage of the bible which I use as a guide to teach using the modern understanding and explanations because most of those things I am hearing or seeing it for the frist time; I have not been told.

The following are some of my past international prediction I have given from the scroll which have come to pass.

THE LIBRATION OF THE OPPRESSED BLACKS IN APARTHIED SOUTH AFRICA

Following Natradamus prediction about doing battle with the supper powers; my first international assignment was to fight for the liberation of the oppressed blacks in the former apartheid South Africa. The revelation given to me from the bible was 2nd Chronicles chapter 2:14-end in respect of King Jehoram who was plagued by a severe sickness according to the word of the prophet Elijah and that similar thing will happen to the apartheid minister who shall be forced out of his throne like King Jehoram. The message of the miraculous freedom of the blacks in South Africa was published in the National Concord news paper of Nigeria of 14 April, 1986 page 7.

Similarly, prior to the then apartheid South African while minority election, P.W Pika Botha was forced to a sick bed who then unintentionally handed over to his deputy Deklerk who feed Dr Nelson Mandela from the prison and who also conducted a general election involving the black majority for the fist time in history of their country and Nelson Mandela became the President of the free democratic south Africa. The former apartheid regime was backed up by the world powers including the United States and Great Britain.

CHINA FACES DOUBLE PLAUGES

In 1986, it was reported that China being a world power, had been beating up the black students along their streets whom they accused of spreading the aid virus; many of the blacks and other Caribbean of African origin went to the their various embassies to obtain their visa back home. It was reported that china had been practicing racism against the blacks since many years ago.

Then I cried unto the Lord to save the blacks facing such humiliation in China and the Lord replied that he will not spare China that she must be punished and after that they will stop maltreating your people. Since she is a world power I will deal with her as a world power so that the whole world will know that I am the Almighty as I worked with the prophets of old so I shall work in this later days.

Then he show me a giant missiles; “I will sent this missiles to the far east Asia and shall explode and manifest in the form of great fire and tornado storm. Based on this revelation, I went to the national news paper and paid for the avert which read thus: “Strong message against South Africa and world events through John the Baptist sent as a saviour for the freedom of the blacks throughout the world..” issue of 2nd June, 1986 page 17. One year latter, The tragedy sucked; China was hit by a severe tornado and bush fire caused by lightening from the tornado which lasted for a whole month. China being the most populated country in the whole world could not quench the fire therefore called the whole world to come to their aid. The bush fire was quenched by the tornado rainfall which struck twice. This prediction came to pass on the month of May and June. The quotation given to me from the bible were Ezekiel chapter 20:45-49 and Jer. 30:23-24

THE EASTERN EUROPE FLOOD DISASTER OF 1995

According to Nutradamus, the young dark leader will do battle with the supper powers and the area of conflict will be the eastern Europe and the middle east. In 1994, France one of the world supper powers intimidated Nigeria who sent are military personnel and weapons to fight along side Cameroon during the Bakassi crisis; the whole world condemned the act including other supper powers such as U.S and Britain; .fear griped Nigerians as she was going to face serious battle with France and I prayed unto the Lord and he told me that, France will not attach Nigeria but I will fight for Nigeria; I will rain hailstorm and flood and submerged her which will affect other neighboring nations. I will remind the whole world of the flood of Noah. To proof to the whole world that I am the Almighty; this shall be her punishment The quotation given to me were Isa 28:16-29, Gen 7:11-12, 2sam 5;19-20, Joshua 10:11-13 and Deut. 29:23 The information was published in the Nigerian Tide News paper of 27 March, 1994 front page captioned, BAKASSI: PROHET WARS FRANCE. Then in February, 1995 the tragedy struck; there was three days and three nights heavy rainfall like hailstorm that lasted for three days and three nights making the Rhine river linking the countries in the eastern Europe overflowed and submerged France, Germany, Holland, Spain and Sweden all in the eastern Europe; tens of thousands of Europeans were forced out of their countries as a result of the great flood; it was the worst in the past 50 years according to press report and in other international media.

This is as good a time as any to further the controversy. So in staying with the topic of religion, I would like to state that I believe there are only two kinds of religions in the world.

First, there is the religion that teaches one must earn one’s way to heaven. Buddhism, Hinduism, Catholicism, Islam, Judaism, Mormonism, Jehovah’s Witnesses, and the Church of Christ, are just a few of the denominations that belong to the Church of Good Works. Though their doctrines differ in respect to definitions of God, faith, heaven, and salvation, they all believe that mankind is possess some goodness and strive to better themselves in order to merit heaven, via keeping God’s law, being baptized, or obtaining good karma. This, they hope, will please their deity in the end, whoever their deity may be.

The central teaching of the Good Works Church is faith plus good deeds will hopefully result in eternal life.” But one can never know.

The second religion centers itself around the person and work of Christ Jesus, who is believed by Bible-believing Christians to be God in the flesh, the Creator become man, the God-man as proclaimed in the New Testament. The clear teaching of Biblical Christianity is that we are sinful from birth and this results in our habitual breaking of God’s law. Since our Creator will not be bribed by our good deeds, all of us remain condemned before the holy God. But God, who is rich in mercy, made a way for sinners to be justified in His sight. Individuals must place their faith in the sinless life, death, and resurrection of Christ alone. Jesus did ALL the work. And He bids individuals to trust Him for their eternal state.

The central teaching of Biblical Christianity is that we are justified by faith in Christ Jesus alone. In other words, faith in Jesus plus nothing we can do results in our eternal life.

So, are you banking your eternity on your own empty works or will you you place your faith in what God says in His Word? Take your Bible and go to the Gospel of John. With a pen in hand, everytime you see the words, “eternal life” or “everlasting life,” underline those words and than ask yourself two questions. Who is eternal life for? And what must one do to receive eternal life? Ask God to show you the answers to those questions from His Word.
