Only Jesus...the rest is sprinkles...

My Belief

Let me say this LOUD and CLEAR, ONLY JESUS MATTERS. The Christian faith is divided over zillions of little controversies. We fight about everything! We fight about how old the earth is, is everybody saved, does Israel matter anymore, are the end times near etc… These are all important topics that God gives us in his word to teach us how to live and what purpose he has for us, but they ARE NOT the main thing. Jesus alone with NO help from you, is the most important topic. His free gift of salvation is the only thing that keeps you from the justice you deserve. For all have fallen short and only Jesus can bridge the gap for you.

Scripture

Ephesians 2:8-9
8. For it is by grace that you have been saved, through faith - and this is not from yourselves it is the gift of God - 9. not by works, so that no one can boast.


John 3:16
16. For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whosoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.


Application for Life

DON’T fight about all the stuff in the Bible. Try to learn it, Try to Live it, but always realize you will never get all the answers while you are here on earth. Keep an open mind, pray for guidance, and realize the one hard concrete truth we have is Jesus Christ. Study the rest, but hold on to that truth. Jesus plus nothing equals salvation! While the rest does matter, it is only sprinkles in comparison to debt Jesus paid for us.

  1. I agree with you on this one. So many churches have fallen apart over stupid debates. Only Christ! If I never learned another thing about the tiny details of the bible my head is full of all the information I need to live for Jesus.
