SALVATION: We are all freewill creatures

| June 16, 2024 1:00 AM

God didn’t make robots in His image. We all have the God-given ability to choose to do good or to do evil. How can we know the difference? Like any wise and reputable manufacturer, God gave an instruction manual for the guidance and benefit of His creation.

In God’s Word (the Bible) is a pathway that leads to peace of mind, joy, health, prosperity and ultimately eternal life in a heavenly kingdom.

Conversely, should His freewill creature choose the opposite pathway, the destination is confusion, deception, depression, sickness, mental stress, frustration, anxiety and ultimately eternal separation from the Creator.

Fortunately, the Creator saw fit to offer a rare and precious gift to His freewill creatures who choose to abandon the destructive path and begin to travel the path that encompasses right living.

Whether thief or murderer, pedophile, adulterer, perverse morality or pride, a simple freewill choice to embrace the free gift of salvation through Jesus will resurrect a life in a way that the internet, drugs, alcohol, immoral sex or money alone can never accomplish.

If you’ve tried the rest, why not try the best?
