To Anonymous

This is really for any Anonymous person.....

You may THINK you're anonymous, but I know you're in North Carolina and I know you use Windstream Communications. I also know your IP address, that you're in alltel's network, and that you used a Microsoft Windows XP when you left your comment. I even know the Resolution of your monitor. It wouldn't take a whole lot of digging to figure out exactly who you are and how to get in touch with you. So, is there anything else you would like to say?

Please feel free to leave a NICE comment at any time. I will be happy to publish it. However, I am afraid that you will be terribly disappointed when the devil uses you for evil and you see that your scheme backfires when your nasty comments go unpublished. There's no fun in that, now is there?

Now that I have your attention, I'd like to take you down the road a bit.....The Roman's Road, that is. I pray that as you journey on this road, you will find Christ along the way.


Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. (John 14:6 KJV)

Who is a sinner?
For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;(Rom 3:23 KJV)

So you're a sinner, Big Deal!
For the wages of sin is death;but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.(Rom 6:23 KJV)

Gift? From God? To Sinners?
Don't you have to change your ways first?
But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.(Rom 5:8 KJV)

Christ died for sinners?
Did he die for all sinners? Did he die for you?
For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.(Rom 10:13 KJV)

How do you call upon the name of the Lord?
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.(Rom 10:9 KJV)
For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.(Rom 10:10 KJV)

So if you confess, that Jesus is Lord,
and believe that he was raised from the dead,
you'll be saved! It sounds too easy, doesn't it?
For by grace are ye saved through faith;and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
Not of works, lest any man should boast. (Eph 2:8,9 KJV)

Here's a little extra for ya..... Eph 2:8,9
Grace* is the "unmerited" favor of God. That means we do not deserve it and can do nothing to ever deserve it. Grace is receiving goodness from God because God is good, not because I'm good.
Faith* is more than just believing in God, But trusting God. Knowing that Christ's payment for my sin was sufficient. Believing that he died for me, and on the third day, He rose again. Just as he promised he would.
Not of yourselves: it is the GIFT of God.* Gifts cannot be earned or they become wages. The moment you try to deserve the free gift of God, it becomes something you are trying to earn. Gifts are to be accepted with thanksgiving and gratitude.
Not of works;* If you have been trying to become worthy of Gods grace through works, STOP. Only through Faith in the blood of Jesus will you be saved. As a new creation in Christ, (born again of the spirit), God will give you the opportunity to join him in HIS work. And HE will receive all the glory and praise. "so no man can boast in himself."
