CONFESSIONS OF MY FAITH IN GOD:

CONFESSIONS OF MY FAITH IN GOD:

He is the God who heals me!

Greater is He who is in me than he that is in the world.

Father God, in your deepest love You so delighted in the sons of men, that though they continually committed disobedience against You, You sent your only Son, Jesus the Christ, from heaven to this earth, to be born in the likeness of the sons of men, in my likeness, a human being, so that the just penalty of my disobedience, my sinful nature, would rest upon Him, and His righteousness and life would abide in those who chose to believe in your Son. It is this great work of grace in the person of Jesus Christ that your Word has clearly revealed to me, and I trust in the Lord of creation who is now my Redeemer and Sustainer, and I know I am saved from eternal damnation by your grace through this faith that Your Son has given me, and I know that I will live forever with the You, the Living God. (John 3:16)

As a matter of fact, the more complicated it can be made, the more you “need” the experts. Once the general population has been convinced of how complicated a matter is, they can easily be manipulated by a few “experts”. This is called “guaranteeing job security”. Now let’s get back to the specific topic at hand, Christianity.
