Does This Help Lead You To Christ?
I don't want to preach, but just leave you with these simple words to consider and ask that you read slowly to let it sink in without passing judgment until after you read it all. This is serious business.
Nothing in universe is without a cause. So the universe could not have caused itself. The uncreated must have caused the first cause. Who then is the Uncreated Creator? Has He revealed Himself anywhere at any time and would it be expected He would do so? Like for example your character in a computer game. He would be in the form of God, all the fullness of the Godhead bodily.
Some of the most spiritual Christians can be those who operate quite well in their good self, and need not be those who had gone through the lessons of great loss before coming to Christ. How much more beautiful it would be if it was the former and God did not have to resort the measures of the latter.
Jesus walked on earth, he said he is God, all evidence points to him being sinless, which no man can compare and almost all beliefs don't even have their god walking on earth to break into creation to show love to receive forgiveness of sins to gift with eternal life. There were 11 different group sizes in the Bible witnessing His resurrection and went to their death for this testimony, so are they liars? Is Jesus a liar?
Nothing in antiquity is more well documented. For example, the Emperor of Rome who died 11 years after Jesus died has only only 10 sources written about him within 150 years after his death. Compare that to Christ who had 42 sources of various non-Christians, Jews (non-Christian) and Christians.
We have 45 early sources citing 129 facts. 24 of them cite his resurrection. 17 are non-Christian. 12 of those non-Christian sources speak of Jesus' death. And 7 non-Christian sources give some reference or other about Jesus being deity, even though they did not receive Him.
Jesus fulfilled 62 prophecies from the previous 1500 years recorded, the odds are less than 1 in a trillion calculations have been derived.
To be saved you would need to come to the cross as a helpless sinner to receive Jesus as Lord and Savior. Accepting His death, resurrection and deity. God wants to walk with those who choose His life.
Since we are all made in God's image as God foreordained over 13.7 billion years ago, none of us can cease to exist even if we wanted to. So if we don't want salvation, God has to righteously put us somewhere, and that place is eternal separation from God and His people. That place is called Hell. God does everything possible to convince you not to go there.
The thing I particularly like about God is He does not make salvation so easy, even though it is so easy. What I mean is that it is a simple choice to receive eternal grace, yet people in their mental gymnastics are their own worse enemy that keep them from receiving the cross of salvation by the precious blood of the Lord Jesus Christ.
This seems to me to be a very righteous creation of God in His way of doing things and according to His nature (holiness) to save anyone who would receive Him, anyone at all. Any person who receives His Son may do so because we are all capable of being drawn by God, and we all have a spirit of God-consciousness. Deep down inside we all know, but we may not want to give up sin and self to be saved, so that God can forgive us our sins and deliver us from self.
