God sent His only Son to shed His Blood for the remission of our sins.

Rom 2:12 For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law; 13 (For notnot the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doersdoers of the law shall be justified.

The Jews hadhad the Law and still sinned.

Gentiles had no lawno law and still sinned.

EverybodyEverybody needs a Savior!

Again: 12 For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law:

If some are not judged by the Standard of the Law of Moses,

For what will they be judged?

First and foremost for not seekingnot seeking to know the True and Living God.

Anyone who seeks Him will find Himwill find Him.

Abram was raised an idol worshipper before God God spokespoke to him and called himcalled him out of idolatry.

He sought and found the True God.Joshua 24:2-3

All who knowknow the Truth will bewill be judged

Let's bring it to ourselves.

The Word of God has always been clearlyclearly and

trulytruly taught in this church.

Your daddydaddy may have been a good preacher.

Your grandpa may have been a good mangood man.

Your mamamama may have been a fine Christian lady.

Proverbs 1 7 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction. 8 My son, hearhear (hearken to) the instruction of thy father, and forsake notforsake not the law of thy mother: 9 For they shall be an ornament of grace unto thy head, and chains about thy neck.

13 (For notnot the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doersdoers of the law shall be justified.

8

James 1 22-25 But be ye doersdoers of the Word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. For if any be a hearer of the Word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:

For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be this man shall be blessed in his deedblessed in his deed.

If we don't clean it, we go all day with a big black big black blobblob on our forehead.

The Scriptures are our mirror.

We must seesee ourselves as we are, and fix itfix it.

James 2 14 What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man saysay he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him?

10

15 If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food, 16 And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit? 17 Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone.

Such faith is all talkall talk and no walk;

It is not the real thingreal thing.

Can suchsuch faith save him?

Love and faith are alikealike in that both will produceproduce works that are fittingfitting.

11

To trusttrust God is to believebelieve His Word and livelive our lives fullyfully by His Teaching.

If I really believereally believe that there is blessingblessing and rewardreward for paying my tithes,

I will be eagereager to give unto the Lord.

If I really believe that everyevery Word of God is pure and willwill produce blessing as we believe and obey,

I will study to knowstudy to know God's Word that I may receivereceive every blessing He has for me.

12

The blessing of the Lord, it maketh rich, and He addeth no sorrow with it.

Proverbs 10:22

If I believe that with my whole heartwhole heart, I will not strive within myselfwithin myself to have more.

I will work aswork as unto the Lord, and allow Himallow Him to add unto me in His timeHis time and methodmethod.

There is always time to do alldo all that God wantsGod wants us to do.

13

Life only gets hectichectic and rushed, when we are tryingtrying to do everything we wantwe want to do,

And then add a littleadd a little of God's stuff on.God can not benot be an after-thought.

When our onlyonly concern is God's WillGod's Will:

What HeHe gives us to do;

Then we will have plenty of timetime and energyenergy.

2 Timothy 1 5-6 When I call to remembrance the unfeigned faithunfeigned faith that is in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and thy mother Eunice; and I am persuaded that in thee also. Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou stir upstir up the gift of God, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands.

14

Genuine faith is notnot all talk.We will bestir ourselvesbestir ourselves to do all that GodGod has

giftedgifted us and calledcalled us to do.

18 Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works. 19 Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble. 20 But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?

15

You believe in God?

Real faith will trust in Jesus Christtrust in Jesus Christ for salvation.

21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar? 22 Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect? 23 And the Scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God. 24 Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only.

16

You trust God?

Real faith will obey Himobey Him in all things.

25 Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by works, when she had received the messengers, and had sent them out another way? 26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.

17

To believebelieve in God does not save you; you have to humblehumble yourself and askask in Jesus' Name.

A blessed lifeblessed life is not the result of believing that the Bible is trueBible is true.

We must trust and obeytrust and obey every Word of God.
