How To Be Saved

How To Be Saved Many people wonder how they can be saved from the consequences of their sins and have eternal life. The Bible teaches that salvation is a gift from God that cannot be earned by human efforts or merits. Salvation is based on God's grace and mercy, which He offers to anyone who believes in His Son, Jesus Christ, as their Lord and Savior. Jesus Christ died on the cross for the sins of the world and rose again from the dead, proving His power over sin and death. Anyone who confesses their sins, repents of their wrongdoings, and trusts in Jesus Christ as their only way to God will be saved. Salvation is not a one-time event, but a lifelong relationship with God that involves obedience, growth, and service. To be saved, one must follow the steps below: 1. Recognize that you are a sinner and that you need God's forgiveness. Romans 3:23 says, "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." 2. Acknowledge that Jesus Christ is the Son of God who died for your sins and rose again from the dead. John 3:16 says, "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." 3. Repent of your sins and turn away from your old way of living. Acts 3:19 says, "Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord." 4. Receive Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior by faith. Romans 10:9 says, "If you declare with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved." 5. Confess your faith in Jesus Christ publicly and join a local church where you can grow in your knowledge and love of God. Matthew 10:32 says, "Whoever acknowledges me before others, I will also acknowledge before my Father in heaven."

Genocide is a term that refers to the deliberate and systematic destruction of a group of people because of their ethnicity, nationality, religion, or race. The word was coined by Raphael Lemkin, a Polish lawyer who studied the Nazi occupation policies in Europe during World War II. He combined the Greek word genos, meaning race or people, with the Latin suffix -cide, meaning killing.

According to the United Nations Genocide Convention of 1948, genocide is defined as any of five acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group. These acts are: killing members of the group, causing them serious bodily or mental harm, imposing living conditions intended to destroy the group, preventing births, and forcibly transferring children out of the group.

Genocide is considered to be one of the most heinous crimes against humanity, as it targets victims based on their real or perceived membership of a group, not randomly. It is also a complex phenomenon that involves multiple factors and actors at different levels of society. Some of the causes and motivations for genocide may include: ideological extremism, ethnic hatred, political power struggles, economic exploitation, social engineering, or fear of the other.

Some of the examples of genocide in history are: the Holocaust, in which Nazi Germany killed about six million Jews and millions of other persecuted groups; the Armenian genocide, in which Ottoman Turkey killed about 1.5 million Armenians; the Rwandan genocide, in which Hutu extremists killed about 800,000 Tutsis and moderate Hutus; and the Darfur genocide, in which Sudanese government forces and militias killed about 300,000 non-Arab civilians.

An Israeli tank blowing up a family in a car with body parts landing on the roof of the car is too much for anyone to understand. What is next and how long before one of the mightiest armies in the world moves into Gaza and undertakes the killing of every man woman and child? How long are the leaders of the world going to stand by and let these autocracies continue? Yet this is the land and these are the people you have come to love. Now you are posting about the evils of Hamas when what they did on October 07th pales into insignificance in comparison to the mass murderers of Israel. This genocide and pure evil in its highest form.

Blessings
