Then and Only Then

Acts 2:38 (KJV)

[38] (*Then) Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

(Then): A Conjunction - a word used to connect clauses or sentences!

Acts 2:38-Is A Response or Conjunction To A Present Feeling of Conviction To A Request of Help!

The Power Of Acts 2:38 Only Works As A Response!

“Then and Only Then”

Is It Fruitful, Obeyed and Empowered!

People Who Experience No “Conviction and Request for Help”

-Acts 2:38  becomes nothing more than words in a book called the Bible!

Is Acts 2:38 Your Conjunction to Preaching or Is It Just More Words?

Then and Only Then… Acts 2:38 Becomes Your Gateway to Eternal Life!

“Forsaking All” is Non Negotiable…

Luke 14:33 (KJV)

[33] So likewise, whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple.

Unbelievable Yet Undeniable. God Wants 100% Commitment!

Many Claim To Be Christian. Yet Upon Inspection You Find Them Partially Christian!

Just Enough To Have The Flavor But Not The Substance!

The Greatest Distinction of A Disciple Is There Is No Mistaken Identity…

The First Requirement - “Forsaking All That You Have” Separates You From All You Possess…

There Are No Part Time Christians - It’s All Or Nothing.

The Mark of Freedom

Exodus 21:5-6 (KJV)

[5] And if the servant shall plainly say, I love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not go out free:

[6] Then his master shall bring him unto the judges; he shall also bring him to the door, or unto the door post; and his master shall bore his ear through with an aul; and he shall serve him for ever.

There is a Mark of Distinction of the “Truly Free”…

They wear it with Pride and are not ashamed of their willing allegiance!

While some plan escape they pledge Loyalty!

Jesus’ House Has Restrictions On Entering but Non On Leaving…

A Locked Door is For Those Entering Not Leaving!

When Will You Receive The Mark of Freedom?

Jesus Awaits You At The Door.

Saltless Salt

Luke 14:34-35 (KJV)

[34] ¶ Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be seasoned?

[35] It is neither fit for the land, nor yet for the dunghill; but men cast it out. He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

Losing What Makes You Valuable Can Be Terminal…

Salt that loses it’s Saltiness has no value whatsoever…

A Man Without The Spirit Of God is No Better Than…

Attitude Makes The Difference

Proverbs 14:6 (KJV)

[6] A scorner seeketh wisdom, and findeth it not: but knowledge is easy unto him that understandeth.

Proverbs 14:6 (AMP)

[6] A scoffer seeks Wisdom in vain [for his very attitude blinds and deafens him to it], but knowledge is easy to him who [being teachable] understands.

How You Read Gods Word Is Greater Than How Much You Read The Bible…

Attitude adjustment is your job, then God serves accordingly!

Good is asking, “What will it be?”

Your Attitude Will Make The Difference…

Which Is Greater?

Matthew 5:7 (KJV)

[7] Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.

To Receive Mercy or To Give Mercy?

The Very Word “Mercy” Means: *YOU DESERVE JUDGMENT-But- because of Divine intervention You’re forgiven without Punishment from the Offended….

    •    To Only Receive Mercy: it is limited!

    •    To Give Mercy: will trigger an unlimited supply for the giver of Mercy!

Which Is Greater…to give mercy or receive mercy?

Whether Mercy Will Be Once or Unlimited?
