I know the family dog has been around us too long when my husband farted and the dog checks his hinnie to see if it was his. After he knew the smell wasn't coming from his body, he sniffed Mark. Then he pulled his ears back and flopped down by my side, in a huff, as if to say, "You leaky pot licker."
Roscoe is quite a character. He thinks he's one of us. Of course he isn't, but we sure have fun with him.
I think there probably are a lot of "Christians" in church that call themselves believers. They may even serve as deacons, preachers or Sunday school teachers. The fact is the only thing that makes anyone a believer is a true personal relationship with Christ Jesus. You have to have real faith that he came to die for your sins. You have to have asked Him to forgive your sins.You must have accepted Him as your Savior. If you really have done these things you will want to please Him and share Him with others.
"All things have been committed to me by my Father. No one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him." Matthew 11:27 (NIV) These are Jesus' words.
Please take the time to read Matthew chapter 13.
It's so important that you know for sure who and what Jesus is to you. It's not the pomp and circumstance that counts when you die. It really comes down to your personal relationship with Christ, either you have one or you don't. Without being born again, you will die in your sins a spiritual death. Choose life in Christ, your physical body will die, but your soul will live forever in heaven.
