So I was reading a book and decided to share its contents as it is really a book that inspired me to think about how many of us still don’t get it. Now I am addressing the ignorant Christian, and I don’t mean that meanly but simply that you have been taught a specific way and just haven’t been motivated to ensure that what you have been taught is accurate. How many Christians will end up in hell because they simply didn’t make their salvation sure? I think one is way too many and I cringe at the thought that we lose people every day on this planet who, if it were possible after you die to be shocked at anything, would be shocked that they were standing in the goat line. And ain’t no goats gettin’ into heaven. 

So but now I am also addressing the one-foot-inner’s-and-the-one-foot-outers. These are those who could be swayed or convinced if they just had the truth set before them. In the world when men use words no one understands we all shake our heads as if we understood but worse of all we think that they are really something set apart from the rest of humanity. I have stared to read some books and could not continue because the author really wrote the book for themselves and to feed their ego and not to feed my mind or heart. Yes, some people write using the communication methods to do nothing more than boast about who they think that they are. And do they trap people and win ignorant people to their cause which is usually self exaltation? Yes, same, same as satan. You can be sure that their boss is not God.

Bu so anyway the last group that I was thinking about when I was reading this book was the unbeliever.  Not the angry individual that is fighting against the idea of God, they must break through the spiritual battle that they are in after all no one can serve two masters i.e. God and satan. It is one or the other and satan will not let you go willy-nilly. Nope, this last group has really never heard a clean version of the gospel or they haven’t heard about it at all. And unfortunately this truth is truer more today than ever before. Funny how we Christians think that the gospel will be preached throughout the whole earth without our assistance. Oh don’t get me started as that is for another message. Nope again this is for those stuck in the valley of indecision but want an answer that is real and that can bring a real change to their circumstances. 

The title of the book is, “The New Birth’ and it was written by Kenneth E. Hagin. I would recommend reading any of his books which come to near over 100 or more to get some real help in your faith walk. His son is also a good writer who also writes some very helpful books.
