    But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;

    How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.

    Jude 17-18

    So Jesus is not God?

    Why? God doesn't take our prayer except from Jesus?
    But I heard that some people pray to Maria/Marry?


    But christian in Indonesia also referring Allah as the name of God, father of Jesus.

    Jesus said, "Unless a man be born again he CANNOT see the Kingdom of God."

    So you must be born again of God's Spirit to enter into eternal life. "He who has the SON has life"

    There are many loving nice people of different religions but according to JESUS, they cannot enter in to the Kingdom of God and will perish.

    Those are His words and I believe them!

    Being a true Christian is being born of His Spirit as a child of God and then following and obeying our Lord Jesus Christ and His teachings the best we can. When we fall short, we confess and ask God to forgive us and get back up again.

    Yes, we all still sin but we cannot make phony excuses for our sin. We confess our sins and He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Thank you Lord Jesus!

    No. Read Luke 1:30-32, Matthew 3:17, John 1:34, John 1:49, Matthew 16:16, John 11:27, John 20:31, Acts 9:20, John 14:28, John 5:30.

    Just because some people pray to Mary does not mean it is acceptable to God. Jesus told us exactly how to pray in Matthew 6:7-13.

    Go look up the oldest Greek and Hebrew texts you can get your hands on. There you will find the "tetragrammaton". That "tetragrammaton" represents God's name and is wriiten 7,000 times in the Old and New Testaments. Some have removed his name from the scriptures for their own purposes or agenda. “Jehovah” is the best known English pronunciation of the divine name, although “Yahweh” is favored by most Hebrew scholars. The oldest Hebrew manuscripts present the name in the form of four consonants (from Greek te·tra-, meaning “four,” and gram′ma, “letter”). These four letters (written from right to left) are הוהי and may be transliterated into English as YHWH (or, JHVH).
