Romans 10 says If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is by believing in your heart that you are made right with God, and it is by confessing with your mouth that you are saved. As the Scriptures tell us, “Anyone who trusts in him will never be disgraced.” Jew and Gentile are the same in this respect. They have the same Lord, who gives generously to all who call on him. For “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” Jarrett Roberts said: “Nature created us this way. I laugh in the face of your fictitious God...” ((GOD PLEASE BLESSED HIM)) Ray Answers: It is scientifically ludicrous to say that Nature made itself. For Nature to make itself, it had to be pre-existent, before it made itself. Whatever created us had to be eternal and non-material. Nature is none of these things. God is both. He is outside of the dimension of time (eternal) and He is Spirit. He will also get the last laugh: “Because you disdained all my counsel, and would have none of my rebuke, I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your terror comes, when your terror comes like a storm, and your destruction comes like a whirlwind, when distress and anguish come upon you…” (Proverbs 1:25-27). So forget your image of God like some sort of passive celestial Santa Claus. He is nothing like what you conceive Him to be. The “god” you don’t believe in doesn’t exist. He is a figment of you fertile imagination (the place of imagery). The God who is revealed in Scripture is the one you have to face, whether you believe in Him or not. Everyone is a sinner, but everyone has the option and opportunity to find grace. Eternal life is for now, not just after you die! This is measured by the following verses; Ephesians 1 When you believed in Christ, he identified you as his own by giving you the Holy Spirit, whom he promised long ago.The Spirit is God’s guarantee that he will give us the inheritance he promised and that he has purchased us to be his own people. He did this so we would praise and glorify him. There is much more to say, but Ill let you reply.
