What are we before we become born again....I know we are dead spiritually....as God hasn't connected with us..
so what are people called,who are walking around at the moment,who aren't born Again?
Lost dead and without any hope . that is what they are , same I was . did you know that long before I was born again . I could still call JESUS LORD by mouth .
yet , I lived just like the world , got drunk like the world , partied like the world , love what the dead love , sin . Yet I was dead and lost in sin , not saved and not born again .
Being born again is not me just saying OH I believe in JESUS , because I could do that . Being born again , was truly be converted , truly coming to true faith in HIM , real belief in HIM
being a hearer and a doer . And the beauty is , IT was the WORK OF GOD . FLIPPED me around one hundred and eighty degrees it did .
Still remember the day too . may thirtieth of two thousand and six . yet as I said , years before still being dead and not saved , not born again , I still remember having a clear debate with an athiest .
Oh yes . I told him if he did not believe in JESUS he would end up n a lake o fire . YES I could speak truth . Yet my works denied HIM . I was not following HIM and I did not love him .
I was just the same as was anyone else around me . I was just as bad as was the athiest , cept he was not the wine bibber I was . I was even worse than him . even worse .
You gotta know I THANK GOD daily , I did not die that night long ago . cause had me and the athiest died in a car wreck on that night , we both would have been sentenced to the lake of fire .
My point is , I want us all to pray about what my point is . Many can profess JESUS IN MOUTH , YET deny HIM IN HEART . I SHOULD KNOW , I was once the worst one of them . OH but praise
GOD for HIS TRUE grace , which really DID lead me TO JESUS . WHERE I did in heart and mouth confess HIM as LORD . Ponder the point . I want us all to ponder the point I am making .
either we are born again and HIS , or we are fooling ourselves . And either we love HIM , obeying HIM from the heart , or we know HIM NOT , even if we do confess HIM by mouth .
Everyone . please ponder the point I just made . and let none get offended . I MADE it about MY OWN SELF when I was still the old man .
LOOK closely at that question . what are we before we become born again …. I know we are spiritually dead …. as GOD hasn't yet connected with us .
so what are people called , who are walking around at the moment , who aren't born again .
And then look at my answer . I HOPE this gets approved and released . buts its gonna offend some . yet ITS TRUTH .
