A lot of people "believe", but that's all the further it goes with some. Repentance needs to go with that, turning away from a life of sin, to follow Jesus as Lord and Savior. Even Satan "believes" God is real, yet he's not going to heaven. Big difference.
When I was at the lowest point in my life, I didn’t know where to look for the answers to life...let alone, whom to turn to for help. It was then, that Jesus told me to look in the one place I had never looked before. He told me to look UP. I did. I looked to Jesus and repented of my sins, and received forgiveness that day. He erased all my sins, and the Holy Spirit transformed my heart and mind to be more Christ-like, and gave me a brand-new life in Christ. That was on July 23, 1973, and I’ve never been sorry I did, nor regretted one second of it. All you have to do to receive His love, is ask. He turns no one away.
It’s not about being good or trying to stay good. We're not saved by good works.
It’s not about religion.
It’s not about wishful thinking. God keeps His promise to save.
It’s not about positive thinking or mere hoping.
It’s about trusting God to keep His Word. And He does. Trusting in Him and following Him day to day.
God is perfect. He CANNOT lie. After 46 years of knowing Him, I can tell you with full confidence ...He is trust-WORTHY. You can count on Him to keep His Word. What He says, He will do.
When you have a problem, just look up. God is ALWAYS there for you. All you have to do is ask, and receive. He turns no one away.
