Are you saved? this is a BIG question the reason this is asked for the church & the bible has 2 different understanding of this 1 question. The church says that once you are baptized you are saved , and the bible says different. The bible says that your baptism is to show the world you have rejected it for Christ . Let me say it like this. Baptism doesn’t accomplish or seal your salvation; it’s a public declaration of the work the Lord has already accomplished within you Luk 7:50 .

It comes from a right relationship with God “after” conversion. Why after conversion for many after baptism walk away are they still saved ? No, the bible does not teach the doctrine of ‘once saved, always saved.’ A person who has gained salvation by faith in Jesus Christ can lose that faith and the salvation that comes with it. The Bible says that maintaining faith requires great effort, a “hard fight.” (Jude 3, 5) Early Christians who had already accepted Christ were told: “Keep working out your own salvation with fear and trembling.”​—Philippians 2:​12.

I encourage all to fight the good fight of faith . For it would be sad to know that all of this time was put in for nothing. You are saved on the day the LORD returns Revelation 1:7 , Hebrews 9:28 , Titus 2:13 , 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 Matthew 24:36 , and many more bible vereses . This is when you are saved not before then.

  Fight the good fight. While slavery has been outlawed for 155 years, Black Americans still encounter racism and inequalities that influence their daily lives. “We are still trying to get free from many things,” said Karlos Hill, professor of African American studies at the University of Oklahoma. “But the principal thing we are trying to get free from is random racist violence in the form of private killings, like with Ahmaud Arbery, and state-sanctioned violence, like in the case with George Floyd.” According to a study from the University of Michigan, Rutgers University and Washington University, about 100 in 100,000 Black males will be killed by police during their lives. In contrast, 39 in 100,000 white males will die at the hands of police. Despite slavery being outlawed for 155 years under the Thirteenth Amendment, Black Americans are still racially profiled and disproportionately killed by police, encounter voter suppression, are blocked from peacefully protesting, and fac...

  The Kings child or Child of the king. What does this mean? If you believe that God is your Father , and not the pope then we have a foundation to start from . For God is creator of all . and all is created by Him and for Him , but that still does not mean that all is for Him . Even thou that all was created by Him by the breath of His mouth even thou God does not have a conventional mouth for this is just a figure of speech . Many do not believe in Him , and the works of His hands. But they want to go to heaven just the same. They want to get there on there own merit. They want to side step God , and still enjoy all the fruits or all the benefits that comes with knowing God. that cannot happen. They do not want to die they want to stay alive , and just walk on in they want everything to be just as it is. Like I said that cannot happen you/we cannot side step God for He is the creator , and not us. We have to honor Him with our life style which is laid out in scripture.We wil...

  Destination of many so called christian's. Those who reject God thereby choose hell, which is separation from God. What God is guilty of, so to speak, is respecting the free will of creatures that he created in his own image by allowing them to exercise their choice to reject him. It is the final destiny of every person who does not receive salvation, where they will be punished for their sins. People will be consigned to hell after the last judgment. Hell is the dwelling place of those who reject God irrevocably, whose alienation from God is a permanent expression of their own ill-used freedom, and whose suffering is at once physical (burning by fire) and spiritual (deprivation of God). In traditional English versions, he does occasionally seem to speak of “Hell” – for example, in his warnings in the Sermon on the Mount: anyone who calls another a fool, or who allows their right eye or hand to sin , reject the teaching of the bible will be cast into “hell” (Matthew 5:22, 29-30)....
