Heart belief

To say we are saved because we believe in Jesus we must first ask ourselves what do we mean by believe. Is our believing merely our belief that Jesus existed? Who do we believe he is? There are many thoughts out there about him . Some say he was a good man but just a man. Some say he was a prophet. The Bible says he is both God and man. Also, even the demons believe. James2:19. James tells us that we believe in God. Good. But even the demons believe. So what does it mean to believe in Jesus and be saved? It’s a kind of belief that is more than just intellectual. It’s that belief when deep in your heart you agree with God that your a sinner than deserves death. Also that you believe that Jesus’ death and resurrection really happened and was the only way for us to be forgiven. It means believing with such intensity that we turn away from our old way of life(repent ) and lay that old life down and follow Jesus. Being obedient to him. Confess our sins to him. And then declaring to others of his existence and work in our lives!! It’s easy to say we believe. It’s another thing to BELIEVE!! Have you come to that belief in the Christ? The Messiah? God in the flesh?? Jesus? Emmanuel? He has come and will come again!! Don’t wait! Trust and believe!! He is waiting but he won’t wait forever!! He loves you! Of all the turns you could make in life this one will be the best!!
