Are you a professing Christian or a carnal Christian? Or are you truly saved and witnessing about Jesus to others? Are you actually born again and thereby connected with God? Do you commune with the Lord daily in prayer and "hear" Him speak as you daily read His Holy Word?
Christianity is not only a religion, but first and foremost it is a relationship with the Creator. In the following video (38 minutes long) Dr. Michael Lake discusses about what it means to be a Christian, as well as other topics ...such as the mark of the beast. The video is titled "Are You a Christian or just saved? Dr. Michael Lake says what the Church won't!"
Dr. Lake says we need to understand what it means to walk in Biblical holiness.... to live a life so that the Holy Spirit is not grieved whereby He pulls back and away from you. He also states that being connected to the throne of God is the only way you will know true peace.
Now is the time to turn to the Lord with all your heart, and soul, and mind and strength in love for Him; to come to a saving knowledge that Jesus is the Messiah, the promised Savior and to surrender your entire being, your whole life, to Him and to repent of your sins and begin to lead a godly life. He will help you to do just that if you believe in Him and in His resurrection.
Time is short. Jesus will return soon to take true believers to be in heaven with Him, before the seven-year Tribulation begins. You do not want to be left behind to face the wrath of God on the unrepentant and ungodly people during the Tribulation !
Repent.
Confess your sins.
Admit you are a sinner.
Ask for forgiveness.
Believe in your heart that Jesus Christ is your Savior and Lord and Master.
Believe in His resurrection.
Be totally surrendered to the Lord.
"(9) That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. (10) For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. (13) For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." - Romans 10: 9,10,13
Remember what Jesus said at John 6:37 , "All that the Father giveth Me shall come to Me, and him that cometh to Me I will in no wise cast out."
"And ye shall seek Me, and find Me, when ye shall seek for Me with all your heart." - Jeremiah 29:13
In these perilous end times we are now living in, you need a firm Anchor to keep you grounded in the Lord's truth and in His loving arms. Some people, even professing Christians, are fearful of all the chaos and violence and turmoil happening right now and are in dread of what the future may hold. Read your Bible and pray without ceasing, and you will find the peace only God can give you. Remember, the Bible tells us the glorious end of all things:
GOD WINS ! !
A wise choice is what Isaiah 55:6 tells us:
"Seek ye the LORD while He may be found, call ye upon Him while He is near:"
