The Law of Faith

The Law of Faith: You must believe the witness of God and accept Jesus as your Lord & Savior [1 John 5:10-13]. If you have accepted Christ, repented of all sin, and have been baptised, then you are saved, and no one can tell you that you are not saved; it falls upon you to workout your salvation [Philippians 2:12]. By this I mean that the holy spirit is given unto you to teach you all things and show you all things, it helps you to live a godly life by convicting you when you transgress the will of God. In laymens terms the holy spirits tells you when you are wrong[John 16:5-15] this leads you to repent of sin.

Again, no man can tell you that you are not saved, once you have accepted Jesus Christ as Lord.  However the wise will understand the truth that follows. There will come a day when Jesus Christ himself must confirm your salvation, this is the second part of salvation [1 Corinthians 1:5-8]. You have read correctly, one day you will stand before Jesus Christ and it falls upon Jesus to state whether or not you are truly saved and can enter into the Kingdom of God.  (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. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.)[Matthew 7:21-23].

These are the true saying of God my friends. I am a writer and have written several books in Jesus' name, but it doesn't matter if I write 100 books or preach 10,000 sermons; if I have not worked out my salvation in accordance with the will of God, then I will be doomed to hell. I would merely be another lost soul in hell who thought that works could get him into the Kingdom of God, when they can't.  Read the book of Romans and Paul will tell you 1000 times that the grace of God by faith in Jesus Christ is what gets a man into heaven not works[Romans 3:19-25]. 

So what can you do to ensure that Jesus will confirm your salvation at the appointed time? My advice is to remain under the grace of God, seek God with your whole heart, love God above all else, and listen to his holy spirit when it convicts you of sin. Repent and change your ways immediately, and Jesus will gladly confirm your salvation.  The bible says that there are certain traits that accompany salvation [1 Timothy 6:11-14].  David was not perfect, but God said that his heart was perfect because as soon as David sinned he repented and did not continue to commit the same sin[1 Kings 11:4].

This is our faith: believe God, accept Jesus as Lord & Savior, be baptized, and live a godly life; repenting of sin daily, knowing that the blood of Jesus Christ forgives all sin, covers all sin [Romans 4:6-12].  Do these things and you have kept the law of faith. 

A New Law:
-The Law of False Doctrine: Sound Doctrine saves and False Doctrine condemns [1 Timothy 4:16].  The bible says that in the last days people will bring to themselves preachers who preach false doctrine [1Timothy 4:1-5].  The basic tenant of the bible says that a new law enters, to do away with the old law [Hebrews 8:13].  The current law is the Law of Faith in Jesus Christ, God's law.  So why would anyone preach false doctrine?  I told you, to do away with God's law.  But false doctrine has always been around right?  It has been around, but the key is this, the bible says that God's Law, The Law of Faith, will be done away with when the antichrist comes onto the scene.  A change in doctrine, doing away with the Law of Faith in Jesus Christ, is a sign of the times we are in.

Dreaming

Dreaming is a form of mental activity, different from waking thought. Dreaming occurs during sleep. The process of dream activity has been characterized by many clinical and laboratory studies. These studies show that dreams are more perceptual than conceptual. Things are seen and heard rather than thought. It should be no surprise then for you to discover that adults spends 25% of their nights sleep dreaming, but newborn children spend as much as 50% of sleep time, dreaming. You’ve heard it many times before but I’ll tell you again, “unless we begin to perceive as babes we will never reach our true potential.”(Matthew 18:3) The trials of life slowly drain dreams from our minds. We cannot submit to the apparent futility of dreaming. A dreamer must have extraordinary vision complemented by the drive to achieve his goals. Children are pardoned from any responsibility concerning the implementation of their dreams because they do not have the ability to act on them. But what of those that have the ability but choose not to act. There is no forgiveness for a person that wastes talent. I can tell you from experience that I now have less talents than I once had because of my refusal to use them.(I still have more than enough though.) Each of us is special and we should endeavor with all available strength to use these gifts to the best of our capability.

A dreamer is someone that tries to achieve all hatched possible positive outcomes. He is an explorer not affected or blinded by the sarcasms of ordinary men. His idealism makes him a man of vision. One who boldly tempts fate and dismisses the scorn of lesser men. I’m reminded of a story. There was an old sheep dog that through experience learned of the softness of hay because his first duty was the care of sheep. With age he cared less about the sheep and more about his sleep. His lack of vision caused the farmer to have him replaced. The old dog could not eat the hay but he was not about to let the sheep eat his bed. It is laziness that finds many of us in later years. We know our job and responsibility but the wisdom of experience is replaced by shortcuts and the tricks learned through experience. In life there are always those who have the keys of knowledge and refuse to use them. They will always stand in the way of your nourishment and not allow you to feed. The “Old Dog” can’t eat the hay and will not allow anyone else to eat either. (Luke 11:52) The elder statesman is always replaced with a younger hound. The youthful apprentice is relentless, full of energy, and not set in his ways. However the “Old Dog’s” wisdom should be exploited because there is much that he can teach the humble young pup if he so chooses.

We must take steps in life to follow our dreams if not the title of “Dreamer” quickly becomes a curse.
