THE WILL OF THE FATHER? BELIEVE IN JESUS

Mt 7:21 “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord, will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.

Jn 6:40 For my Father’s will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.”

The Father's will is clear. Look to Jesus and Believe in the Salvation that is freely given, by His death on the Cross. He took our place on the Cross for all sin. This covers past sins and future sins committed by us. Once we Believe and open up to a relationship with Christ (through prayer, reading the Bible and being still to listen), the Spirit will speak to us and will transform us, as we walk in obedience to His Word. During this transformation, we will begin to speak and act differently. What was once acceptable behavior, will gradually become a thing of the past as we walk in the Spirit. The desire to sin will decrease little by little. We are a new creation with Christ living inside of us! The Love of Christ will begin to flow in us, until it pours over and affects everyone around us. Belief is what sends all of this into action and seals the deal. It is not enough to Believe the Biblical facts. We need to accept that His Word is true in our hearts. It is our choice whether to accept the Gift our Father is offering or deny it. The gift of Grace is Christ on the Cross, crucified for our sins. Grace is something given freely even though undeserved. Calvary is the answer the Father gave us for sin. The only action that is needed on our part is to BELIEVE and look to Christ. He will show us the rest of the way from there.
