Why do we keep hearing people say things like that as if it's a formula for salvation? You can give your heart to Jesus, your life to Jesus, turn over a new leaf, give all your money, give all of your time, on and on as all of those ramblings go, but salvation is not us giving anything to God, but what God gave for us 2000 years ago!
All right Heir, I have been left with some questions after I read this thread of yours. First and foremost, what did God give us 2000 years ago? Mind to share with us?
We can see the due time message testified that God will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth as the man Christ Jesus gave Himself a ransom for all!
Jesus was a loyal Jew and he would not contradict his own gospel aka the Tanach which says that no one can give himself ransom for another. (Ezekiel 18:3)
This is great news for all men, no matter who you are or what you've done!
This great news for all men was contradicted by Prophet Ezekiel in 18:3.
Stop trusting in empty religious sayings that have no power to save you and trust the Lord believing WHY Christ died and that God raised Him from the dead the third day and be saved.(1 Corinthians 15:1-4)
Now, you warn us to stop trusting in empty religions and believe that Jesus was raised from the dead. Did you check the emptiness of the religion where you got your warning from? Because, according to the gospel of Jesus which was the Tanach, once dead, no one will ever return from the grave. (II Samuel 12:23; Isaiah 26:14; Job 7:9; etc.
