The Tragic Story Of Catholicism's Mother Teresa

Matthew 15:7-9, “Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying, This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me. But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.”

One of Catholicism's most beloved nuns, Mother Teresa (1910-1997), might be the most famous and most widely admired Catholic personality of the 20th century. And in 2016, she was canonized by Pope Francis. I read an intriguing article today about the sad story of Mother Teresa. In the article you will learn that Mother teresa had a weird habit of baptizing dead people. Yes, you read right, DEAD PEOPLE! These are the bizarre and unscriptural Satanic rituals of Catholics in third world areas like Calcutta, India. There is not a more dangerous, demonic and bigger CULT than Roman Catholicism (and its whorish diabolical twin sister in Russia, the Orthodox Catholic religion based out of Moscow).

I found the following helpful article which highlights the disturbing lack of God's presence in Mother Teresa. ...
By Tyler Arnold

Washington, D.C. Newsroom - September 10, 2024

The “spiritual darkness” that Mother Teresa describes in her writings can be difficult to comprehend, but this feeling of emptiness was not caused by either depression or a loss of faith, according to a lecturer at an academic conference organized by the Mother Teresa Institute.

St. Teresa of Calcutta’s “dark night of the soul” was a distinct charism that helped her build her faith and serve others rather than a mere chemical imbalance that induces depression or an abandonment of the Catholic faith, said Loyola University Maryland philosophy professor Derek McAllister at a Sept. 6 symposium held at The Catholic University of America in Washington, D.C., one day after the saint’s feast day.

“If it’s a mental emotional problem, they do not of themselves promote virtue or increase depth of relationship with God,” McAllister said. “Whereas we know with the dark night, the nights do of themselves greatly increase love, humility, patience, and the like. And they decidedly prepare one for deeper prayer.”

The lecture focused on some of Mother Teresa’s letters, which describe an emptiness and a spiritual darkness — essentially an inability to feel the presence of God. St. Teresa, who founded the Missionaries of Charity, was an Albanian sister who spent most of her life serving the poor in Calcutta, India. She was canonized in 2016.

“The darkness is so dark, and I am alone,” St. Teresa wrote. “Unwanted, forsaken. The loneliness of the heart that wants love is unbearable. Where is my faith? Even deep down, there is nothing but emptiness and darkness. My God, how painful is this unknown pain? It pains without ceasing.”

St. Teresa wrote that “the place of God in my soul is blank, there is no God in me” and “I just long and long for God and then it is that I feel he does not want me — he is not there.” READ THE WHOLE STORY
So sad and tragic, but dear reader this is the expected fruit of a false religion like Roman Catholicism. You see, Jesus plainly said that to enter into God's Kingdom you MUST BE BORN AGAIN (John 3:1-7). The new birth is not optional if you desire to escape God's wrath in Hell for your sins, and to go to Heaven instead. I was gratefully born again at the tender age of 13. It was in an old-fashioned Baptist church. Before that day all I remember in hindsight is darkness in my life. There is no awareness of God's presence in my life. So it doesn't surprise me one bit that Mother Teresa felt the same darkness throughout her life, entagled in the spider's web of Roman Catholicism, a merciless prisonhouse of religion.

As you just read for yourself in Mother Teresa's writings, she said: “the place of God in my soul is blank, there is no God in me.” She didn't know how right she was when she penned that. What saith the Scripture? Matthew 6:23, “But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!” The light that was in Teresa was darkness, that is, a lie. She thought she'd found the truth, but that perceived truth was a falsehood. Over one billion Catholics think they have found the truth, but it is really a pack of lies!

I watched a video the other day by a Catholic priest. YouTube randomly plays another video after the one you wanted to watch ends, and that is what happened. I was shocked when the priest said that you cannot be right with God unless you first go to the priest, and get his blessing. He cited the Scripture from Luke 5:14, “And he charged him to tell no man: but go, and shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing, according as Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.” Based on that one Bible verse alone, the wicked Vatican have concocted a false doctrine of going to your priest to have your sins absolved.

As usual, Roman Catholics wrest the Scripture to their own destruction (2nd Peter 3:16-17), perverting the truth. The Bible plainly tells us in verse 14 the reason why Jesus told the leper to go to the priets, "for a testimony unto them." It was to testify of the power of Jesus, that He had the authority of His heavenly Father to perform miracles; and it verified that He was indeed the only begotten Son of God, the promised Messiah. Nowhere does the Bible even remotely hint that the priests forgave or healed the man in any way.Please RUN away from the Roman Catholic prisonhouse cult of religion!

To “Repent” Doesn't Mean To Forsake Sins, It Means “A Change Of Mind”

Mark 1:14-15, “Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God, And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.”

Here in Mark 1:15, the verb 'REPENT' means (Greek: metanoeo, “to think differently”) and BELIEVE THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST. That is how you get to Heaven—you simply come to a holy God as a guilty sinner, and by faith (trusting what God has written in His Word) you believe the Good News (Jesus' crucifixtion, burial and resurrection). 1st Thessalonians 4:14, “For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.”

Nothing is mentioned in the Bible about “
repent of all your sins, which is not possible. Nothing is said about reforming yourself. Nothing is said that you must have a visible manifestation of something (e.g., speak in tongues or cry and weep or be mournful) to prove to others that you are saved.

No, the Bible just says to think differently (repent) and believe the Good News. That's all salvation is. Simply believe that Jesus did it all for you! Getting saved (born again) has nothing to do with keeping the sacraments of the church in order to be saved. Receiving God's free gift of eternal life has nothing at all to do with your willingness to clean up your life of sin, to reform yourself, or to follow Jesus as His disciple. These are strictly matters of SERVICE, not SALVATION. They are matters of DISCIPLESHIP, not SONSHIP. When you get saved you become an adopted son of God (John 1:12; Romans 8:15).

I cannot warn you enough not to use the Devil's modern Bible revisions. Let's compare the trustworthy inspired King James Bible, to one of the new popular modern Bible versions, in this case the English Standard Version (ESV)...
KING JAMES BIBLE (KJB) - 1st Corinthians 1:18, “For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.

ENGLISH STANDARD VERSION (ESV) - 1st Corinthians 1:18, “For the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.”
Do you see the big difference in wording? Any corrupt Bible translation that says believers “are being saved” instead of “are saved in 1st Corinthians 1:18 is flat out wrong. The KING JAMES BIBLE makes it clear that either you BELIEVE, and thus you ARE SAVED; or else you don't BELIEVE, and thus ARE NOT SAVED. There is no in BETWEEN. There is NO PROCESS! The new birth is instantaneous, not a prolonged lifetime process. Becoming Christlike requires a process of growing in grace, which is entirely a matter of service (discipleship). But coming to Christ by faith to be saved is a one time instant event. The new birth is a supernatural miracle of God in respnse to one's faith in Jesus Christ.

Getting saved (born again) happens in an instant, the very moment you trust Jesus as your personal Savior, receiving His sacrifice on the cross as full payment for your sins, believing that He was buried but then physically resurrected from the dead three days later. This is “the Gospel” according to 1st Corinthians 15:1-4...
1st Corinthians 15:1-5, “Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:”
The Apostle Paul said that he received this Gospel directly from Jesus (Galatians 1:12). Some people foolishly claim that Paul and Jesus preached a different Gospel, but that is NOT true. 

Neither was there a different plan of salvation under Mosaic law in the Old Testament. Acts 10:43 plainly says that people have always been saved by faith alone in Christ. Acts 10:43, “To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins.” People in the Old Testament were saved by looking foward to Calvary; we are saved by looking back to Calvary.

Romans 4:4 plainly teaches that if salvation had ever been by works (as Pastor Peter S. Ruckman (1921-2016), Dr. WIlliam P. Grady and other heretics falsely preach), then salvation would have been a DEBT OWED by God, and not freely given by God's merciful GRACE. Romans 4:3-4, “For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness. Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.” For anyone to foolishly say that people were saved by doing WORKS in the Old Testament is to go totally contrary to the inspired written Scriptures.

Please don't let anyone deceive you dear reader, Jesus came into the world to die on a cross for your sins (John 3:17), He doesn't demand that you first be willing to forsake sinful bad habits to get to Heaven, which would be works of self-righteousness (Jonah 3:10). Salvation is not doing your best, it is having Christ's best put to your account through receiving Him by faith. Turning away from sinful ways would be a work. Faith puts all of the merit where it belongs, on the object of our faith, Jesus and His work.

The true Gospel always points you to CHRIST; a false gospel always points to YOU. Salvation is not a reward for the righteous, it is a gift for the guilty! We must stay true to the simplicity of the Gospel!! Repentance regarding salvation is a change of mind from unbelief to belief. We must earnestly contend for the faith (Jude 1:3). Thank you for reading my ministry blog. To God alone be the praise, credit and glory.

Why Very Few People Are Going To Heaven

Luke 13:23-24, “Then said one unto him, Lord, are there few that be saved? And he said unto them, Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.”

We are living in the “perilous times” foretold in the inspired Holy Bible in 2nd Timothy 3:1-7. There has never been more corrupt Bible revisions than there is today in America. There has never been more false religion in the United States than there is today. Satan is pulling out all the stops, reltnlessl working to kill, steal and destroy.

The Bible tells us in 2nd Corinthians 4:3-4 that the Devil deliberately BLINDS THE MIND of unbelievers to keep them lost, “But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.” The Devil wants to take as many people to Hell with him as he possibly can. Please don't take that truth lightly dear reader. The Devil has your number and he knows where you live! We just read that Satan blinds unsaved people, so that they won't see the light of THE TRUTH of the Gospel to be saved.

Jesus made it clear in no uncertain terms that to go to Heaven a person MUST BE BORN AGAIN!!! John 3:1-3, “There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews: The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him. Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” The word “verily” means “truly.” Jesus said to Nicodemus (a Jew), I am telling you THE TRUTH, that unless someone is born from above they cannot enter into God's Kingdom.

Now you can understand why Satan's greatest weapon is to con people unto living the Christian life without ever being born again. Religion is the worst thing that ever happened to this world! Religion is man trying to reach God through human effort and understanding; whereas Christianity is God to to reach mankind through faith alone in the sacrifice of His only begotten Son through Calvary's cross. Salvation is not doing your best, it is having Christ's best put to your account through receiving Him by faith.

There are not many people today who are giving out the clear Gospel message. The Gospel has been so embellished, changed and butchered that no one can even recognize God's simple plan of salvation anymore. I believe our time as saints is short. Romans 10:15 says that the feet of soulwinners are PRECIOUS!

Carefully notice that the Bible doesn't say the “mouth or tongue is precious, but the soulwinner's feet. The reason why is because even the most eloquent speech and cunning wisdom is completely worthless if we don't use our feet to bring the Gospel to the lost sinners who need to hear it to be saved. Salvation is not a reward for the righteous, it is a gift for the guilty!

Repeatedly throughout the inspired Word of God we read that people were saved by simply believing the Gospel when they heard it preached. As the Apostle Peter preached the Gospel in Acts 10, we see that Cornelius and his friends were saved in verse 43 by simply BELIEVING the Gospel they heard preached unto them.

That is why the Apostle Paul said in Galatians 3:2, “This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?” A person gets saved simply by BELIEVING the Gospel which they read or hear preached unto them. It is that simple to be saved. There is no biblical requirement to “be willing to turn from your sinful bad habits,” nor to “become a Christ follower,” nor to “give your life to Christ.” These embellishments are deadly alterations to God's simple plan of salvation. Remember, the Bible warns that Satan intentionally “blinds” the minds of unbelievers.

The Devil blinds many people with false science. Evolution is false science. The word “science” means “the study of” something. You cannot study evolution because there is nothing to study, it is a make-believe theory. Evolution is bogus conjecture, and a waste of human mental power. The teaching of evolution is one of the greatest injustices ever committed against our children in the United States, deliberately lying to them to alienate them from their Creator, God. Any honest person must concede that evolution is a farce! I digress.

Jesus answered the disciple's question as to whether few people are saved, with the shocking revelation that very few people will ever enter through Heaven's pearly gates in eternity. Jesus tells us the reason why in Matthew 7:21, “Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Jesus tells us what the will of the Father is in John 6:40, “And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.” The will of God the Father is that you BELIEVE ON HIS SON, JESUS!!! Only Christ has the nail-scared hands and feet.

It's not difficult to see why Jesus said so few people will ever go to Heaven, in lieu of all the counterfeit plans of salvation being preached today across the world. There are over one billion hellbound Roman Catholics today, who have been woefully deceived to trust in Sacramental Salvation instead of Christ alone as the Bible teaches (Galatoans 3:26). The Vatican's Seven Sacraments are a road to Hell, not Heaven. Catholics have what the Bible terms “another gospel (2nd Corinthians 11:3-4).

There are an estimated 1.6 BILLION Islamic Muslims in the world, who all reject Jesus as the Savior. According to the toxic Koran (which I have read in detail), Jesus was kidnapped and someone else died on the cross. I'm not kidding! The Koran contains ZERO prophecy! It is clearly NOT God's inspired Words; but rather, the ravings of a religious lunatic, Mohammad. Not one Muslim who trusts in the Koran will ever step foot through Heaven's pearly gates. According to the wicked Koran, Jesus is not God's only begotten Son. In fact, Islam says God has no son at all. The Devil is a beautiful liar!

And then there are the Mormons and Jehovah's Witnesses who deny that Jesus is almighty God. They have what the Bible terms “another Jesus” (2nd Corinthians 11:3-4). The Scripture proclaims Jesus as God in the flesh (1st Timothy 3:16 - all citations are only from the trustworthy King James Bible). Revelation 1:8b calls Jesus, “the Almighty.” If you don't believe that Jesus came to earth as almighty God in the flesh, then you have “another Jesus” from the dear Son of God presented in the Bible. As God's only biological (begotten) Son, that makes Jesus God too (John 14:1), since He literally had God the Father's blood flowing in His veins (Acts 20:28). Remember, Jesus was born of a virgin and did NOT have an earthly father, God almighty was Jesus' biological Father (Isaiah 7:14; Matthew 1:23).

Then there is the Church of Christ (COC) cult, who add more to the Gospel than God requires to be saved. Official COC dogma says that you absolutely must be water baptized to be saved. You must also (they say) publicly confess faith in the name of Jesus. If you don't make this audible public confession, COC deems you still unsaved. And finally, COC insists that you turn from your sinful bad habits to get to Heaven. They misunderstand this heresy to mean Bible repentance. This is the same damnable heresy sadly being taught at Pensacola Christian College and Bob Jones University today. RUN from this dangerous places! Dear reader, RIGHT DOCTRINE MATTERS!!! It reall does! That is why Jesus said in Mark 4:24b, “Take heed what ye hear...

Likewise, the Apostle Paul exhorts the saints in 1st Timothy 4:16, “Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee.” Take heed what ye hear! Hell is eternally full today of billions of fools who HEARD WRONG! Matthew 7:15, “Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.” The most dangerous thing you could ever do is believe whatever a preacher says without SEARCHING THE SCRIPTURE for yourself to verify if what he is saying is blbical or not (John 5:39; Acts 7:10-11). That pastor could be incompetent, lying to you. Jeremiah 5:31, “The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests bear rule by their means; and my people love to have it so: and what will ye do in the end thereof?” Your pastor could be a Bible ignoramus! Learn to think and study for yourself based upon the inspired Scripture alone, never blindly follow anyone.

And then there are the Seventh-Day Adventists, who errantly teach that you must keep the Ten Commandments to prove that you truly love God. If you don't keep the Sabbath Day, or turn away from your sinful bad habits, then SDA's claim you don't love God, your faith is not genuine, and you are not a child of God. SDA's are very deceitiful. They will superficially profess to believe the same Gospel as free grace believers, when in fact SDA's trust in a works-based plan of salvation. If you doubt what I say, go study up on SDA's exclusive bizarre doctrine called, “Investigative Judgment.” SDA's have what the Bible terms “another gospel (2nd Corinthians 11:3-4). They also have anorher spirit, which is not the Holy Spirit (2nd Corinthians 11:3-4)

So, we have just seen that neither Catholics, Mormons, Jehovah's Witnesses or Seventh-Day Adventists (SDA's) are going to Heaven, because they all preach another gospel. 2nd Corinthians 11:3-4, “But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him.” Paul is warning everyone about FALSE RELIGION!!!

False Religion In The End Times And Antichrist

If you read down to verses 13, 14 and 15, Paul warns us that the Devil masquerades as an Angel of Light, to deceive his victims. Literally, Satan imitates Jesus to trick his victims. When the Antichrist appears on the scene in the world during the Tribulation period, the Bible says that he WILL DECEIVE the whole world (Revelation 12:9). Many people will follow and qorship the Beast, thinking that he is the promised Messiah, the Christ. 2nd Thessalonians 2:3-4, “Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

Notice that the Antichrist will OPPOSE all the things of God, and instead will promote himself as God. The Man of Sin will be the ultimate narcisst. We are seeing an increasing trend across America (and the world) today to reject organized religion, in favor of spirituality without theology. This is all preparatory for the coming Antichrist. We read in Daniel 11:37b concerning the coming Antichrist that “he shall magnify himself above all.” The wicked world will embrace and follow the Man of Sin, as their hero! His poster will be on every teenager's wall, as a form of Rockstar (if not literally one).

Already we are seeing a strange phenomena of everybody and their dog being tattooed. I'm not kidding about the dog tattoos! I humbly believe this is all preparatory for the Mark of the Beast, which is dangerously close to becoming a reality upon the world. We are close to becoming a Cashless Society. The Bible says without the Mark of the Beast, you won't be able to buy, trade or sell anything (Revelation 13:15-18).

Dear reader, the $64,000 question is: Have you been born again? I didn't ask you if you go to church. I didn't ask you if you are religious. I didn't ask you if you have tried to turn away from your sinning. I didn't ask you if you prayed some prayer. I didn't ask you if you had a religious experience in the past. I asked you if you have ever been BORN AGAIN?

That is to say, has there ever been a place and a time in your life when you realized that you are a guilty Hell-deserving sinner; and you realized that Jesus is the Christ, the only begotten Son of God—who died on a cross to pay your debt of sin, and then He was buried, and three days later He physically resurrected from the dead—and you trusted in this 'GOOD NEWS' (GOSPEL), believing on Jesus as your Savior as your only way to Heaven? If you did, then you were born again that very moment and forever, now God's child.

That is the ONLY way to be saved, so that you can someday go to Heavwn to be with Jesus when you die. You simply need to receive Christ's sacririce on the cross as full payment for your sins, BELIEVING that He did it all for you. It's that simple, free and without any obligations or stipulations down the road. The life you choose to live from that day forward (from the moment you get saved) is an entirely different matter of discipleship and service, and not of sonship and salvation. One thing has nothing to do with the other, and this is critically important to keep them seperate (like gas and fire must be kept seperate), lest we corrupt the Word of God, and cast stumblingblocks before the people. To mix and combine service with salvation is the false doctrine com,monly known as, “Lordship Salvation.

Thank you friend for reading my blog. To God alone be all the praise, credit and glory.

Beware Of Toxic 'UNSHACKLED' Radio's False Gospel

BEWARE of Pacific Garden Mission's 'UNSHACKLED' poisonous counterfeit plan of salvation...


In this toxic Unshackled audio clip, a woman requires that her father receive Jesus as both LORD and SAVIOR, and to LIVE A LIFE OF SUBMISSION to Him to be saved...

God's curse is on PGM and other demonic heretics today who PREACH ANOTHER GOSPEL of partial faith in Christ PLUS works to get to Heaven. That ignorant daughter failed to mention the true Gospel, that Jesus DIED on a cross to pay our debt of sin, He was BURIED, and three days later Jesus physically RESURRECTED from the dead.

That is the 'GOOD NEWS' according to 1st Corinthians 15:1-6, not living a life of submission to Jesus as the Lord of your life. The idiots in Matthew 7:21-23 lived a life of submission to Jesus, even calling Him: "Lord, Lord," but look where it got them in 𝗠𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘄 𝟳:𝟮𝟯, “𝗔𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗜 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺, 𝗜 𝗻𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗸𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝘆𝗼𝘂: 𝗱𝗲𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗺𝗲, 𝘆𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗾𝘂𝗶𝘁𝘆.”

'Cultural Christianity' Cannot Get You To Heaven

John 3:3, “Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”

I found an interesting and equally disturbing article yesterday from the CHURCH LEADERS website titled, 'The Rise Of Cultural Christianity.' Here is a quote from the article written by James Emery White on September 13, 2024:
In an earlier blog, I noted with surprise the growing number of people who grieved the loss of what Christianity has historically brought to bear on culture who, themselves, are not Christians. SOURCE
Mr. White follows this statement by giving an example of infamous avowed atheist Richard Dawkins, who has publicly mourned the steady deterioration of Christianity over the past century. That is quite amazing! I am aware of several good examples myself of what is today called 'Cultural Christianity.'

In June of 2024, singer Justin Timberlake was arrested for a DUI. The media approached singer Billy Joel, who just happened to be eating lunch at the same upscale hotel where Mr. Timberlake had eaten dinner the night before. The reporter asked Billy Joel what he thought about the arrest of Justin Timberlake. Billy simply replied in classic fashion by quoting Matthew 7:1, “Judge not, that ye be not judged.” Bravo Billy Joel! But the very strange thing is that Billy Joel as an avowed atheist! I found it interesting and equally frustrating that a famous atheist would quote the inspired Holy Bible which God Himself authored. Go figure!

Another example is my 83-year-old atheist neighbour, Maggie. When I first met her in early 2022 after I moved in, I gladly told her that I am a Christian. She instantly replied, “I am an atheist! We became friends right away. I told her that our common brotherhood as humans trumped our religious beliefs. She was glad to hear that. We are both hermits...lol. We don't talk often, but I have shared the Gospel with her briefly on a couple occasions, which she strongly rejected.

I kindly tried to give her a hard copy of Michael P, Bowen's helpful book, 'I NEVER KNEW YOU,' but she refused to take it. She said her decision that there is no God was no light decision, she had taken a long time to come to her final conclusion. I am so sad for he, because the Lake of Fire will be her eternal damnation according to Revelation 20:11-15. Anyway, I mentioned Maggie because whenever I see her she asks me to pray for her. That is very interesting for an atheist to ask for my prayers to God for her. I think it is because as James Emery White wrote about in his intriguing article, praying for others is a part of our American culture. So that even atheists still want someone to pray for them. People just want to be loved.

I kindly wrote this article to emphasize the biblical truth that without being born again, no one can go to Heaven. John 3:3, “Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” Increasingly we are hearing unsaved people, Christ rejecters, quote the Holy Bible, as for prayers and express their grief over the deterioration of Christendom in the United States. Only 3 in 10 Americans regularly attend church today. Sadly, today's churches are pathetic. With the sexualization of our American culture because of perverse Hollywood, the Satanic music industry and inappropriate sex education in public schools for children, our whole rotten society is collapsing in on itself. Foolish parents are ignoring the giant white elephant in the living room. I mean, look at this actual screenshot from Taylor Swift's YouTube video, "Wildest Dreams"...

Taylor Swift at 2:12 in her YouTube music video 'Wildest Dreams'

Only Satanists create and promote this kind of perverse content to minors. Why doesn't YouTube filter this? I mean, they keep filtering Bible preachers who preach hard against the sin of homosexuality, but then they allow this kind of wickedness. My friend Pastor Max D. Younce (1935-2023) in 2021 received his second threatening notice from YouTube, over his Bible preaching against homosexuality. Only one viewpoint is allowed today, which insists that you must be in favor of the demonic LGBTQ agenda, keep silent or be censored. Job 20:5, “That the triumphing of the wicked is short, and the joy of the hypocrite but for a moment?”

Satan's greatest weapon is to con people into living the Christian life without ever being born again. We're seeing it everywhere today. Celebrities by the droves are speaking highly of the Holy Bible, but they are hellbound themselves. I heard inventor Elon Musk recently praising the teachings of Jesus in the Bible, but Elon himself as an avowed atheist. This is 'Cultural Christianity'

Christianity began in the New Testament with Jesus Christ and the new birth. When it went to Greece, Christianity became a philosophy. When Christianity went to Rome, it became an organization (the Roman Catholic Church). When Christianity spread throughout Europe, it became a culture. And when it came to America, Christianity became a dirty business. God never intended for Christianity to deteriorate into a career for the clergy. John 3:3, “Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” When is the last time you heard any pastor, missionary or evangelist preach the truth that you cannot go to Heaven unless you get BORN AGAIN? I haven't heard any preacher in years say it! So sad. So tragic!

Every Bible preacher in the world should be warning lost sinners about God's coming fiery judgment upon unsaved sinners in Hell. Dear reader, you don't go to Hell because of your sins, you go to Hell because you failed to receive Christ's sacrifice on the cross as full payment for your sins. You can live the Christian life all you want, and still go straight to Hell when you breathe your last breath.\

In Matthew 7:21-23 we read a startling true story about a group of people who spent their lives on earth following Jesus. They boasted of their many wonderful works.” They boasted that they had even cast our devils. They called Jesus “Lord, Lord” (there's the heresy of Lordship Salvation exposed in the Bible). They followed Jesus devoutly as the supreme “Lord (Master) of their miserable lives, but Jesus denied knowing them as His redeemed sheep. Jesus tells us exactly why in verse 21, because they failed to do THE WILL OF THE FATHER. John 6:40 tells us what the Father's will is to get to Heaven. John 6:40, “And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.” Paul and Silas reiterated this truth in Acts 16:30b, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved...”

We are now living in the “perilous times” foretold in 2nd Timothy 3:1-7. I've never seen so much evil and hatred against Christians as I do today in the United States. My dear ministry friend (whom I just communicated with earlier this week), Pastor David Baker, took his own life on Wednesday, September 11, 2024. I am still in emotional shock that my friend is gone. But to make matters much worse, at least 50 evil haters on Facebook targeted my Facebook page, posting laughing emojis to let me know they think it is funny that Pastor Baker committed suicide. They have no decency, love or shame!

To sink to that level of hatred, you have to be possessed by your father the Devil (John 8:44). Can you imagine someone so filled with hatred against a Christian pastor, that they think it is funny he killed himself? Woe unto those fools on Judgment Day! 1st Peter 4:17, “For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?

Hebrews 10:31, “It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

If you have never been born again dear friend, it is not too late if you are reading this blog. Simply BELIEVE that Jesus did it all for you through Calvary's cross. Make Jesus your only hope for forgiveness of sins and eternal life. All God the Father asks is that you REST in the finished redemptive work of His only begotten (biological) Son. According to 1st Corinthians 15:1-6, Jesus DIED on a cross to pay your debt of sin (and mine), and that He was BURIED, but three days later Christ RESURRECTED from the dead triumphant.

This is the Gospel, the Good News, by which all who BELIEVE IT are saved. The GOSPEL is the power of God unto salvation to all them who place their faith (trust, reliance) in the person and work of Jesus Christ. Romans 1:16, “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.” BELIEVE IT, Oh sinner, and you will be saved instantly, irrevocably and permanently. You have GOD'S PROMISE of it (Titus 1:2; 1st Corinthians 1:21). Thank you for reading my blog and God bless.

Pastor Tom Stegall Exposes The Folly Of Lordship Salvation

Acts 13:38-39, “Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins: And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.”

There is not a more deadly false doctrine today than Lordship Salvation being propagated in the churches. Pastor Tom Stegall is the senior pastor of Duluth Bible Church. Brother Stegall is 100% free grace, my kind of Bible preacher. ...


This sermon is full of meat and potatoes biblical sound doctrine.
“Legalism does not make you holy, it just makes you appear holy.” —Pastor Tom Stegall, 'True Grace vs. The Imbalance Of Legalism'
The Devil has too many voices spreading lies and heresies. God's army is seeking volunteers to fight the good fight of faith. 1st Timothy 6:12, “Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.”

Sadly, you'll have to look long and hard to find a courageous truth-telling pastor today who cares enough about THE TRUTH to expose the Devil's false Bible revisions, who cares enough to expose the Devil's deadly lies of Wrong Repentance and Lordship Salvation. Even worse, in most Baptist churches today you will hear a counterfeit plan of salvation preached, requiring you to be willing to turn from your sins to get to Heaven. Yet, no such teaching or requirement is found anywhere in the inspired King James Bible.

It is disheartening when I walk into a Baptist church for the first time, like the corrupt Smyrna Baptist Church in Pensacola, and I see poisonous Chick Tracts on display. Pastor Bill Adams (their senior pastor) is not fit to be a pastor. He is theologically incompetent, hateful and woefully lacks compassion for hurting people, which is regrettable learned firsthand when I attended their cult for seven months. Smyrna Baptist Church is pulling on the same rope as the Devil by promoting Chick Tracks and their wrong view of Bible repentance. You get saved by trusting Christ who died on the cross to pay your debt of sin, you don't get saved by reforming your life (which is self-righteousness). Shame on Jack Chick and any church who supports that deadly garbage!

BEWARE of Lordship Salvation, which teaches that faith is not enough to be saved. Lordship Salvation adds making Jesus the “Lord of your life, so that you'll give up your sinful bad habits and follow Christ. This is service (Romans 12:1-2), not salvation (Galatians 3:26). It is slavation! Faith is the only righteous thing that I can do.

Ray Comfort Requires Keeping The Law To Be Saved

Hebrews 4:10-11, “For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his. Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.”

This is THE SAME damnable heresy that is being shamefully taught at Pensacola Christian College (PCC). PCC invited and honored false prophet Ken Ham, who also teaches this damnable heresy that you must turn from your wicked ways to get to Heaven, which is really being required to KEEP THE LAW to be saved. These false prophets, and corrupt Bible colleges like PCC, MUST be exposed because RIGHT DOCTRINE MATTERS!

I typed out this helpful commentary just now from The Strand Study Bible (page 2132) for 1st John 5:13a, “
These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God;
5:13a There are two reasons why people need to “rethink” the Deity of CHRIST (that believe on the name of the Son of God):

1. It is a necessary part to salvation (Jn 8:24)
God tells us that there are two areas in which we must repent if we are to be saved: (1) we must change our minds as to who we are (Lk 5:31-32 & 13:1-5 and Mt 27:3). We are “sinfully” sick and in need of the Savior and cannot save ourselves (Rom 3:10, 23); and (2) We must change of minds as to who CHRIST is (Mt 4:13-17 & 11:20-24, Mk 1:15, Acts 3:12-19 and Acts 2:38). He's God (Jn 8:24, 58-59) and our only Savior (Acts 4:10-12).
Bible repentance is NEVER to turn away from your sinful bad habits, which would be human REFORMATION, not REPENTANCE. Pastor Strand is correct, we must repent (change our mind) about TWO things to be saved: (1) Who WE ARE; and (2) Who JESUS IS. We are Hell-deserving guilty SINNERS (Revelation 21:8), but Jesus is the crucified and risen SAVIOR (1st Thessalonians 4:14). That is the simplicity of the Gospel—you just have to stop trying to save yourself by WORKS (Hebrews 4:1); and rest in the finished sacrifice of Jesus which He made through Calvary's cross (Hebrews 4:10-11), so that Jesus could apply His precious shed blood to the Mercy Seat in Heaven in the presence of God the Father (Hebrews 9:12, 22-24; 10:1, 12:24).

Ray Comfort False Gospel Given To Millions

What Ray Comfort, Ken Ham, Jack Chick, Pacific Garden Mission's UNSACHKED, Bob Jones University (BJU), and Pensacola Christian College are preaching is something entirely different, where you are required to be willing to KEEP THE LAW in addition to childlike faith in the name of Jesus.

PCC is a cult today! Here is page 62 of the “John & Romans” booklet, which Campus Church delivered right into my mailbox last year. It tells the reader that to be saved you must make a mental check to forsake your sinning:
“I repent of my sins. I realize that sin is something that God hates and I no longer want to hold onto sinful bad habits in my life.”

SOURCE: “John & Romans,” Campus Church at Pensacola Christian College, p. 62
Do you still think I bumped my head? PCC has MUCH blood on their incompetent hands for preaching a counterfeit plan of salvation. PCC's Campus Church mailed this damnable corrupt booklet to 50,000 homes in Pensacola! PCC must be held accountable for perverting the Gospel of free grace, for leading souls into Hell. I am not just barking up an empty tree here folks! If we could stop sinning on our own, we wouldn't need Jesus (Galatians 2:20).

The false gospel that Ray Comfort, Ken Ham, BJU and PCC preach gives you nothing but a burden. Jesus said in Matthew 11:28, "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." Jesus gives rest; Ray Comfort gives you a heavy burden to bear (by trying to stop sinning to get to Heaven). How is the latter a free gift? The reason why PCC has been corrupted is because they refuse to contend for the faith.

Quotes From Pastor Hank Lindstrom

Pastor Hank Lindstrom (1940-2008) was the founding pastor of Calvary Community Church in Tampa, Florida. Dr. Lindstrom taught theology at Moody Bible Institute for 14 years, back when they were a solid Bible college. Sadly, today Moody has turned neo-evangelical largely. Dr. Lindstrom preached a free grace Gospel, which is so refreshing, considering that most pastor nowadays have bought into the Lordship Salvation lie.
“Nothing in my future can ever affect the salvation that I have... Once you trust the Lord Jesus Christ as your Savior, you are eternally secure!” —Pastor Hank Lindstrom (1940-2008), a quote from the classic MP3 sermon titled, How Permanent Is Your Salvation?

“Salvation is based upon purely what Jesus Christ has done. And if you've trusted Jesus Christ here, you're saved forever! Nothing in your life, nothing in your death, angels, principalities, nothing—nothing in your future—could ever undo that relationship that has been made when you trusted Jesus Christ as Savior. And there are many people who are confused over this whole thing.” —Pastor Hank Lindstrom (1940-2008), a quote from the classic MP3 sermon titled, “How Permanent Is Your Salvation?

“There are many people who name the name of Jesus Christ, who are not saved, because they're trusting in living the Christian life, or in their works, or in some efforts that they're doing, in order to obtain their salvation.” —Pastor Hank Lindstrom (1940-2008), a quote from the classic MP3 sermon titled,

You Don't Have To Repent “Of Your Sins” To Be Saved

John 1:29, “The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.”

I love this verse! How can anyone think they need to repent of sins for salvation when Jesus took away the sin of the world? JESUS PAID IT ALL!!!


You cannot show me one verse from the inspired King James Bible that says to repent “of your sins” to be saved. Acts 20:21 speaks of “repentance toward God.” 2nd Timothy 2:25 speaks of “repentance to the acknowledging of the truth.” To be saved you must repent (change your mind) concerning two things: 1) WHO YOU ARE, and 2) WHO JESUS IS. You must change your thinking to agree with God that YOU ARE A SINNER, and that JESUS IS THE CHRIST.

Simply receive Christ's sacrifice on the cross as full payment for your sins, believing that He was buried, but then physically resurrected the third day. This is “the gospel” by which all who BELIEVE IT are saved. Romans 1:16, “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.” To “the Jew first” simply means chronologically. God gave the Gospel to Israel first, with the hope that the Jews would be His ambassadors to the Gentiles (Exodus 19:5-6). Sadly, Israel rebelled against God's plan, turning to false idols instead to worship (Ezekiel 14:5). So, God divorced the nation of Israel, as a business deal gone bad. God turned to the Gentiles instead to preach the Gospel to the world, and so it still is today in 2024.

The Devil is a liar (John 8:44). Satan knows that if he can embellish God's simple plan of salvation, by requiring you to make an effort to reform (clean up your life of sin) to get to Heaven, then he has succeeded in blocking you from the new birth, which is by faith alone. This is exactly what the Apostle Paul meant in Galatians 5:4 when he wrote, “Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.” Some foolish Bible students misinterpret this verse to mean that you can lose God's free gift salvation, but that is not true.

The adage “ONCE SAVED, ALWAYS SAVED” is 100% biblical! If you can lose eternal life by not doing something right, then it couldn't be a free gift, and it is YOU who are trying to save yourself. So many people get confused and have much difficulty understanding the biblical concept of God's grace, because all their life they've associated morality with going to Heaven. It is very hard for them to grasp still going to Heaven, while continuing in a perverse lifestyle of sinning. Yet, that is exactly what we all do, isn't it. There is none good, no not one (Romans 3:10).

Jesus is the Lamb of God who died on a cross to pay our debt of sin, so that by His sacrifice we could be made the righteousness of God through faith in Him (2nd Corinthians 5:21).

How Can We Find Peace And Comfort Over People Who Have Gone To Suffer In Hell Forever?

Heb​rews 12:1-3, “And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.​”

There are others that I am straddling on the fence about, not sure where they went. My best friend when growing up at one time professed faith in Jesus Christ. But several years later, after I went off to Bible college and we parted ways, I met him again and he told me he was now an atheist and a communist. I was heartbroken. A year or so later he commit suicide with his father's shotgun. His name was Greg and he was only 22 years old. I have no idea where my friend went. My heart tells me he didn't make it to Heaven. But even John the Baptist while in prison, whom Jesus had said was the greatest man ever born among women (Matthew 11:11), doubted if Jesus was the Christ. So, even God's best and brightest saints can still succumb to depression, doubt and discouragement. I hope my friend was saved, but just down and discouraged at the time. Only Greg and his Creator know.

But to answer your question, there's really no way to find peace and comfort about friends, acquaintances and loved ones who've perished in their sins and gone to Hell forever. All we can do is LOOK TO JESUS as the Bible tells us to do...
Heb​rews 12:2-3, “Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.​”
I have received countless emails from discouraged believers over the years, some even talking about self harm, because they are discouraged. I always remember Hebrews 12:2, which exhorts every believer to stay focused on our dear Savior, who is the Author and Finisher of our faith. What God has started, He will finish. Philippians 1:6, “Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:” If we foolishly take our eyes off of the Lord Jesus Christ—instead focusing on this horrible temporary world, dwelling upon personal problems, thinking about things that mean people have done to hurt us, and allow the ungodliness in society today to fill our brains—then we will definitely become discouraged, disillusioned and frustrated.

I trust God's wisdom, omnipotence, love and omniscience. I cannot find peace and comfort in knowing that my best friend while growing up is likely burning in Hell forever. I laid my small pocket New Testament on his coffin as they lowered him 6-feet down into the grave. I was crying uncontrollably alongside his living family members in sadness for my dear friend, forever saying goodbye. On the way home from Bible college on my way to work, I used to stop by the cemetery and visit Greg's grave, to walk with God and pay respect to my beloved friend, wondering where he was in eternity. It is so sad and tragic.

Greg made his own choices, for which I cannot blame myself or feel guilty and sad. I have peace in knowing that God will one day wipe away my tears as He promised. Revelation 21:4, “And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.”
 I don't know exactly what the phrase means, for the former things are passed away. I find it hard to accept that God would allow us as His children to spend eternity feeling sorrow, discomfort and depression knowing that our family, loved ones, friends and neighbours are burning in Hell forever.

Will God erase our bad memories? I don't know. Revelation 21:4 will happen AFTER the 1,000 year millennial reign of Christ over the earth. The dead (unsaved) throughout the ages will be judged and sentenced to the Lake of Fire (Greek: Gehenna) at this time (Revelation 20:11-15). When all is said and done, God will wipe away every tear. In my humble thinking, the only way God can wipe away our tears is to remove our memories of the painful past. Because as long as I can remember people who have gone to Hell forever, I will cry tears.

I simply do not know the answer to how to find peace and comfort over those who are burning in Hell forever, except that we are commanded in the inspired Scripture to LOOK TO JESUS, the AUTHOR and FINISHER of our faith. God knows what is best. Our omnipotent Creator would never allow anyone to suffer in Hell for their sins, unless they intentionally rejected Jesus as their personal Savior. That is why all children automatically go to Heaven. Every child's name is already written in the Lamb's Book of Life, Someone's name is not removed from the Book of Life until they knowingly reject Christ.

There have been many celebrities who died in their sins without Jesus (John 8:24). Some names that come to mind are: Gene Roddenberry, Elizabeth Taylor, Michael Jackson, Roddy McDowall, Gene Wilder, David Bowie, Steve Jobs, Stephen Hawking, Madalyn Murray O'Hair, Margaret Sanger, Britney Spears, Pat Tillman and Orson Welles. Some hellbound living atheists are: Jodie Foster, Bill Maher, Warren Buffet, Brad Pitt, Keanu Reeves, to name but just a few. Psalms 14:1, “The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God.  They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

I am so glad to be a born-again Christian. I have great peace and comfort in knowing that MY NAME is written down in the Lamb's Book of Life. Jesus told me to rejoice about this fact (Luke 10:20). Every believer should rejoice that we are saved certain!

Even so, come, Lord Jesus!

There Is No Such Thing As An Atheist

Romans 1:17-21, “For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith. For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.

I have a bittersweet 85 year old lady across the street from me named Maggie. I like Maggie, but she is miserable in life. She hates her dead former husband and speaks ill of him. I listen more than I talk when I meet with her. We only talk every few months at most, because we are both recluses by nature, total homebodies. The first time I met Maggie in January of 2023, I boldly stated to her, “I am a Christian!” She quickly replied, “I am an atheist!” I smiled and said, “Well I'm glad to meet you!”

I have witnessed the Gospel to Maggie numerous times, but she is hardened against God. She told me that she didn't come to her decision to become an atheist quickly. She said she had given the matter much thought, and after several years concluded that God doesn't exist. That is so sad and tragic. This year I offered her a free hard copy of the helpful book by Michael P. Bowen, “I Never Knew You,” but she coldly refused to accept it. I am trying to get her saved, but she is defiant against her Creator. Isaiah 45:9, “Woe unto him that striveth with his Maker!  Let the potsherd strive with the potsherds of the earth.  Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, What makest thou?  or thy work, He hath no hands?”

What saith the Scripture? Romans 1:20-21, “For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. This is an amazing passage of Scripture. The inspired Word of God teaches that there is no such thing as an atheist, because the INVISIBLE THINGS of God from the creation of the world are CLEARLY SEEN BY THE THINGS THAT ARE MADE? Could the Word of God speak any clearer? I humbly think not.

Luke music, nature's voice testifying about God's wisdom, omnipotence and goodness transcends all barriers of language, age and race, as well as all cultural and national borders. Psalms 19:1-3, “The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork. Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge. There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.” Everyone knows that there is a supreme God, a divine Creator, and He is a good God. Nature itself testifies to the existence of God, so that they are without excuse...” (Romans 1:20b).

Moses saw the INVISIBLE GOD. Hebrews 11:27, “By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible. The Bible openly acknowledges that GOD IS INVISIBLE to mankind.

1st Peter 1:7-9, “That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ: Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.” The Bible openly acknowledges that Jesus is invisible to humanity. That is why we are invited in the Word of God to BELIEVE ON HIS NAME. John 1:12, “But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.” It is perfectly acceptable to simply BELIEVE ON JESUS' NAME, since we cannot see Him.

The Bible is abundantly clear in all these Scripture passages that we cannot physically see God. But dear reader, we don't need to see God, because the universe around us PROVES GOD'S EXISTENCE. Romans 1:20-21a, “For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful... At some point every child KNOWS that there is a God... “when they knew God...” (Romans 1:20b).

So Great Salvation

Hebrews 2:1-4, Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip. For if the word spoken by angels was stedfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompence of reward; How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him; God also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles, and gifts of the Holy Ghost, according to his own will?
