God's Forgiveness is Available

Also, salvation by faith in Jesus Christ.

1 John 1: 9

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

Romans 10: 9

That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

2 Peter 3: 9

The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

Thinking critically is important in life, as is being willing to follow the truth where it leads, yet it is important to share both the good findings things along with the bad.

On my path of seeking and loving truth, I found forgiveness from a loving God, who explains in simple terms how to be saved from the curse of sin and death and have eternal life in heaven/paradise.

God’s character, seen in Jesus, and how He came to earth to die a horrible death for us to be reconciled back to our Creator, is amazing and wonderful.

I love how God isn’t a respecter of persons, how he looks upon the inside of someone and not the outward.

Forgiveness from our sins is available, as is salvation by faith in Jesus Christ. This is the good news the Holy Bible is telling us in these verses and others. The entire book is about this message.

My critical mind was and is needed to see through this world and the lies it tries to always deceive me with, yet, ultimately, I’m just grateful for what God has given me, the promise that I hold dear, of forgiveness, salvation, reconciliation, and eternal life.

I want everyone to have this wonderful gift, I want them to have assurance of their salvation, I want us to be free of the sins and curses that try to kill, steal, and destroy all that is good in our lives.

The good news is God’s forgiveness is available, and salvation by faith in Jesus Christ. I just wanted to share this simply and with gratitude to you.

10 Famous Movies Filmed in Oregon Part 2

The Following Leaders on Medium

I remember one distinct moment during a career development course at a community college I attended 21 years ago when the professor asked us to stand up and do an exercise. She asked the class to separate themselves into two groups; those who thought of themselves as leaders on one side of the classroom and those who thought of themselves as followers on the other. This question came without warning at the beginning of the class, so we didn’t have time to think it through. The result was probably more sincere because of this suddenness. For some context, the class consisted of about 30 students, mostly young adults under 21 YOA; I was about 21 years old. An interesting thing happened. An Important Life Lesson in Social Perception The vast majority of the class went to the leader side of the class and only two of us went to the follower side. I was one of the followers along with another young man. How awkward; then the professor focused on us followers and ask...
