| David Jay Jordan's Receiving Jesus in Different Ways It's really quite strange because some groups get so specific and so detailed about how people must receive Jesus that they actually limit the Lord. I mean, I'm not too happy with a lot of Christian tracts and shows etc. etc., but who knows exactly how much truth it takes before any of them could lead some people to the Lord. So as long as some basics are there or even the Name of Jesus, who knows what effect it may have on any that read or watch. For the Lord said through his prophet …. Isaiah 55:11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it. And it doesn’t matter what language it is expressed in. as the Lord understands all his names in all the languages His NAME is spoken in because He honours the spirit of our heart. If someone calls out to the Son of God, Jesus will come. if they call out to Yahushua, or Joshua, or the Yahshua, or maybe even the Lord of Lords, and King of Kings, or the wonderful Counsellor, or Mighty God maybe the Lord Jesus will come into them and reveal himself to them if they have a true searching and humble spirit. So surely we can't limit the Lord and salvation and how it comes about and how his miracles work. All we really know is that it works, JESUS works and will always work. And furthermore who can really say , for if someone cries out ...Abba Father, then surely the Father might give him the Son, or if a Jew prays for enlightment from the Father then maybe the Father will give them the Messiah and enlighten them about the true Son of God. And maybe a Muslim might get saved by being submissive even at a mosque, to learn submission to the Lord once outside. We just can't limit the Lord and how He will reach people. For I reckon and we just have to do our part in whatever way to keep on witnessing to all, no matter what their religion and no matter what their supposed outward condition. Besides the worse may be the best. So who are we to judge outward appearances, let’s look at the heart. Love in Jesus Jay January 04, 2001 |
