Is it because they are so misled or they just don&#8217;t know the truth?<\/p>\n<p>There are some that keep asking for proof that God exists. Who woke you up this morning? Who gave you the breath you\u2019re breathing? Who created you? It&#8217;s not your mother, she gave birth to you. Who created man, the universe, etc? We could go on\u00a0and on forever.<\/p>\n<p>Do you think man could have done that? Like the Bible said in PSALMS 14:1- \u201cThe fool says in his heart, there is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable work, there is none that doeth good.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>To those that don&#8217;t believe\u00a0that God exists that&#8217;s your right, no one can make you believe, only God\u00a0can if you ask Him, but there is one thing I know: there is a God, who sits up high and looks down low. If God don&#8217;t exist then who created the devil? (your master). There are some people that believe God sends people to hell, but that\u2019s not\u00a0really true; men and women choose hell first, then God grants them their wish. We are the ones that make that choice. Hell was never created for men and women, it was\u00a0created for the devil and his angels. REVELATION 20:1 and 2 &#8211; \u201cAnd I saw an angel come down from heaven having the keys of the bottomless pit (hell) and a great chain in his hand.\u201d Vs. 2-\u201cAnd he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan and\u00a0bound him a thousand years.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>There are some who ask about the mother of God. God Almighty has no mother for he is a spirit. Mary is the Mother of Jesus Christ. JOHN 4:24-God is a spirit: and they\u00a0 that worship him must worship him in spirit\u00a0and in truth.<\/p>\n<p>Mary needed a Saviour just like you and I need a Saviour.<\/p>\n<p>Two of the most\u00a0difficult groups of people who\u00a0don&#8217;t believe\u00a0in God are the very rich and the very poor. Most rich people\u00a0will tell you that they can take their\u00a0jet plane and travel the\u00a0 world, live anywhere they wish, purchase whatever they want, so why \u00a0believe in God?<\/p>\n<p>The very poor will tell you\u00a0\u2018why should he believe in God when he is that poor?\u2019 Or \u2018why is God not helping him get out from his poverty\u2019 not knowing that God didn&#8217;t put him in this situation. It is sin that put him (us) in that situation, not God. ROMANS 3:23-For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.<\/p>\n<p>And \u00a0what&#8217;s \u00a0so sad is that God wants\u00a0to remove him\/her from\u00a0\u00a0that situation, but sin has crippled \u00a0his\/her mind that the body \u00a0doesn\u2019t want to move, Only God can make us free. JOHN 8:36-\u201cIf the son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Man cannot change himself, unless God changes him. Prison reforms a man, but it doesn\u2019t change him. May God keep blessing Dominica, Love and best wishes always.<\/p>\n<p>Repentance Prayer: Heavenly Father I now realize I am a sinner, and that you sent your only son to die for me at\u00a0Calvary. I now accept the death \u00a0of Jesus Christ \u00a0as the payment for my sins, forgive me for all my sins, wash me in the\u00a0blood of Jesus Christ, I now\u00a0accept you Lord as my Master, Lord and Saviour through Christ Jesus, Amen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Many times some people believe that God does not exist, but the devil does.
