How to Be Saved



Here is Proof of the Existence of Absolute Truth

The fact that Absolute Truth exists has come under attack by people trying to claim that all view points are equally true this claim is particularly made a bout religion in attack on the Christian doctrine that Jesus is the only way to God. However the fact is that Absolute Truth exists regardless of what it is can be easily proven on two basic points.

1. The claim that there is no Absolute Truth is self refuting since it is itself a absolute claim about truth and there it is self disproving.

2. There are many points of view that are polar opposites of each other such that both can not be true. As a result all positions on any topic can not be equally true unless they are all equally false.

As a result some possible view point on every must be the truth even if no one holds the true point of view so there for Absolute Truth must exist.

Introducing the Bible

The Christian cannon of scripture is called the Bibles. The Bible’s Old Testament is also the cannon of Jewish scripture. The Bible is a collection of 66 books. The Old Testament consists of 39 books and the New Testament consists of 27 books. The Bible is most printed widely distributed book ever both on and off line and it has been translated into more languages than any other book.

 The Bible is more than a collection of religious writings. It is not a collection of myths nor a mixture of myth and history. The Bible is consists of history, law, poetry, prophecy, wisdom, doctrine and theology. No other ancient historical document is as well persevered as the Bible since it has been carefully copied from the originals and carefully translated into many languages. The Bible’s historical accounts are unusually honest for ancient historical accounts since it lacks the flattering distortions of leaders found in other cultures. The Bible openly depicts the failings of even the godliest of kings such as David.

The Bible is the most beloved loved book ever written being cherished by millions of Christians who read and live by the Bible. Ironically the Bible is the most heated book ever written since those who hate Christians also tend to hate the Bible. It contuses to exist despite numerous efforts to destroy it by burning it, banning it and attaching its legitimacy

The Bible is the Word of God written by God through human authors through divine inspiration of their vary words making it infallible. God’s preservation of his word explains why it is so well preserved.

The Hope of Resurrection

The eternal hope of the Christian is not being a disembodied spirit floating around heaven. The real Blessed Hope of the Christian is the resurrection of our physical bodies from the dead in glorified form; like that of Jesus Christ; that will be free of pain and death. When this happens in what is known as the Rapture those the bodies Christians alive at the time will be instantly transformed glorified form with dieing.

This wonderful reunion of all Christians in our glorified physical is what the Christian longs for. Particularly those of us with believing loved ones that have died.

How Sin Entered God’s Creation.

As states in the previous post sin is essentially another term for evil. When God created both man and angels, God gave both us and them free will. God did want a bunch of robots that just behave them selves because they had no choice. He wanted being that would love, worship, and serve Him of our own free will.

Evil entered God’s creation when the chief angel called Lucifer decided that wanted to be God and Now called Satan he has been causing trouble ever since. Fist he recruited a third of the angels into his rebellion and the enlisted man kind.

When God placed Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, He basically gave them one rule. Don’t eat the fruit of one of the trees called the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, and that violation that rule would bring death. At first glance this may seem rather severe but there are two points that need to be made.

1.      Adam and Eve had little opportunity to sin and by eating that fruit they were rebelling against God as much as they had opportunity to do.

2.      In the Garden of Eden Adam and Eve knew good and so when they eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil they were deliberately seeking evil.

Some time after God placed Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden and Lucifer rebelled Satan approached Eve using a snake. He successfully got her to eat the fruit of the trees called the tree of the knowledge of good and evil and then used her to get Adam to eat it.

This is how evil came into the world and once it was present God had to deal with it.

What is Sin.

Sin is disobedience to God. This is not just a list of do’s and don’ts it is a heart attitude. That does not mean that there are not specific acts that are sinful, the Bible makes it clear that there are sinful acts but there are acts God has specifically told us not to do. Sin however is in essence of evil, and both the heart attitude and actions are evil. Even those sinful acts often considered small or not so bad are evil on a small scale but still evil.

What is a Christian?

Being a Christian is not about following a set of rules or going to Church. It is about a relationship with Jesus Christ.  

To be a real Christian one needs to accept Jesus Christ as you personal Savior. This is done by accepting Christ/s death on the cross as payment for our sin and repenting of tour sin in prayer. This can be done by any one at any place any time.
