Have you ever broken one of these commandments? If yes, then you’ve sinned against God, and you’re on death row. God is holy and just, and He takes sin very seriously—so seriously in fact that it can only be atoned for by death. Thankfully, in His love and mercy, He has provided a way of escape.

Jesus Christ promised that all who believe in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life. In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace and not by any merit of our own. Upon His return, all the dead will hear His voice and come to life—those who have done good to the resurrection of life, and later, those who have done evil to the resurrection of judgment. Therefore, fear God and keep His commandments, for this is the whole duty of man. For God will bring every deed into judgement, with every secret thing, whether good or evil. Making sure to be doers of the word and not hearers only, deceiving ourselves.

Today, if you hear His voice, do not harden your heart in rebellion. Whoever conceals his sins will not prosper, but he who confesses and forsakes them will obtain mercy and forgiveness. If you repent and believe in the gospel, putting your faith in Jesus Christ, you will inherit salvation, which leads to everlasting life. With this salvation comes a necessary spiritual rebirth; God will give you a new heart and His Holy Spirit, which will give you wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, put His Laws on your heart and mind, guide you into all the truth, help you, and comfort you. By the blood of Jesus, sanctifying you and cleansing you of all unrighteousness—conforming you to His image.

In an act of faith, all believers are called to be baptised in water in the name of the Father, of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. To be buried with Christ by baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, you also might walk in newness of life. Having the eyes of your heart enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which He has called you, what are the riches of His glorious inheritance in the saints, and what is the immeasurable greatness of His power towards those who believe. To be called children of God and to dwell with Him for all eternity.

Sounds like your JC is a bit of a racist bigot. TWOH.

Back in the day when he was spruiking “his word” his audience was confined to a small section of the middle east.

Think of all the good people who over the last 2000 odd years who didn’t even know JC, and what about those who didn’t know squat about the Old T fairytales because they lived in Europe, the Americas, SE Asia, Australia or whatever.

The idea that your JC & his Father/God is the only god to Offer Salvation is ludicrous.

Believe what you want but my “god” Doris the Benevolent would kick your JC’s bottom.

She may not be as Petty as your god (thankfully) but at least her followers understand the difference between reality and fiction.
