John 1 Jesus is to give the power of God
Here is my take on the Ted Haggard thing. He is guilty and I am glad he is out of the pastorate and out of the nea. God can and will forgive because that is who God is. God is forgivering and loves to make sinners right with himself. I know the blood of Jesus has power to forgive and save Ted no matter what and if he is saved he ias going to go to heaven and not hell.
Lets go into the word and see what the Lord has tonight
John 1 10But although he made the world, the world didn’t recognize him when he came. 11-12Even in his own land and among his own people, the Jews, he was not accepted. Only a few would welcome and receive him. But to all who received him, he gave the right to become children of God. All they needed to do was to trust him to save them. 13All those who believe this are reborn!—not a physical rebirth resulting from human passion or plan—but from the will of God.I think it must be hard to be someone that does not see Jesus as their light and see who Jesus was and is. It is kind off sad that when Jesus came the world did not know him or bother to get to know Jesus. It is true as I have said the world is blind and does not know the truth unless the truth is given. Yet in the bible we are told that Jesus is going to grant light to everyone in this life to take himself. Look at this passage to see this truth that all have the light.
Rom 1 18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, 19 because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. 20 For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, 1
No one has the right to say to God he never gave them a chance to be saved. Jesus lived in the land of the Jews where the bible had been written and by the time of Jesus the bible was all pointing to his life. Jesus has the entire bible about him and said all over the Old that who he was and what he was going to be. Yet I think many knew but did not want Jesus and in turn where not chosen to go into salvation. I think the bible teaches God enables the blindness of the sinner to be fixed if it is Gods plan.
But few did take Jesus and embrace him and to the people that did came the birth into the family of God and heavens joy. All people need do to become part of the family is to ask forgiveness and embrace the Love of Jesus. Salvation is not a reward you get be being a good little person. It is not going to church and feeding the poor that gets you saved it is trusting in Jesus and making peace with God. All the other stuff comes after one is saved and going to heaven. Belive the Lord Jesus is alive from the dead and go and ask him to forgive your sins and repent or turn to Jesus and away from your sins and you are forever a child of God. It is a gift you never lose and if you take it you are his. Jesus is not going to leave you after you make him Lord. If your told that in anyway leave your pastors and the church your in and find one that teaches the truth
14And Christ became a human being and lived here on earth among us and was full of loving forgiveness and truth. And some of us have seen his glory—the glory of the only Son of the heavenly Father!
Jesus is the Loving God and is happy to forgive you. Many folks go to churchs that preach junk. They want you to reform your life and not do this and wear that and make this kind of music right and all kinds of junk that is not the bible. Jesus became a human and he enjoyus life and grew up to be 30 years old. Jesus was a man that loved people. He freely forgave sinners and invited them to himself. Jesus lived a life that made the sinner want to dwell in him. Jesus was not dwelling in church he hung with sinners and healed them. Jesus the God we serve left his glory and became one of us, he lived and saw what it was like to be human. He knows what things are like here he went to the shopping places. I think he had a job and worked in the market place, Jesus had friends that he played sports I think and he lived a normal human life.
