The Name of Yeshua, our Lord and Savior
Please note:
Neither is there Salvation in any other: for there is none other name under Heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. Acts 4:12
Many people in this world pretend to be atheists and brag about it. Actually I've met a few of them. I don't think that "atheist" is the even the right word to define them, because the deeper I dig into a dialogue involving God with them, the more I am convinced that one could rather define them as "ignorant of God", agnostics.
To the persons stating angrily: "Where is your God? I can't see Him", I object: "It is not because you are blind to see that He is not here."
Our sight automatically opens when our hearts and motives are pure.
Yeshua said on the Sermon on the Mount: "Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God." (Matthew 5:8)
These are not just empty words. I experienced them as a reality in my own life.
The accusatory finger
Woe to the one who quarrels with his Maker—
An earthenware vessel among the vessels of earth! Will the clay say to the potter, ‘What are you doing?’
Or the thing you are making say, ‘He has no hands’? (Isaiah 45:9)
It truly amuses me when people, who are usually filled with lots of anger and frustrations point an accusatory finger at the Creator.
The particle of dust accuses the One who created it. How ironical is that?
What are these people usually angry about?
They are stating that God is responsible for religious wars, hypocrisy, abuse, cruelty and so on...
In fact, they are all unknowingly pointing at the very root of the problem: sin.
God did NOT create the world they are complaining about. Man, in its wickedness transformed it into a mess.
In the face of death and danger
"The fool has said in his heart: "there is no God." (Psalm 14:1)
Many atheists have a boastful behavior. Many of the ones I have been discussing with have shown much arrogance in trying to prove the point that there is no God.
However, there are so many testimonies of blatant atheists who changed their behavioral patterns in the face of death or imminent danger.
They are actually calling :"please God help me". Some of them are adding: "God, whoever you are, please help me..."
There are numerous testimonies of people accepting Yeshua as their Messiah in the last minutes of their lives. A catholic nun who was teaching us at primary school stated that these people were called "the workers of the last hour" and that they had experienced mercy in the same way the criminal on the cross who was next to Yeshua did.
In the face of death, all masks are falling. You cannot keep boasting and bragging with arrogance as you did before.
I would like to address today to all the people who know about Yeshua and His Salvation, but who think they have enough time to repent. Please REPENT NOW. You might not be given a second chance!
Be a truth-seeker
"You shall know the truth, and the truth will set you free." John 8:32
You might feel lost right now, not knowing where to search. After all, there are so many religions and philosophies that promise you heaven or illumination or quantities of good other things. There are so many misleading doctrines inspired by New Age.
How can you access the Living God?
The Living God has been revealed to Israel in the Bible.
One can access Him through Yeshua our Messiah.
It is one thing to know the Bible...knowing the Bible ( even by heart and in its original language) will not get you saved.
What does that mean? It means that you need to have a personal relationship with Yeshua our Messiah. Will you make Him your King today?
Ask Him to save you and He will.
May you all be blessed by your read.
