PLEASE! YOU NEED TO KNOW… | By Edwin Christiaan


That when God has chosen you to be His child, He will be working in you, giving you the desire and the power to do what pleases Him! (See Philippians 2:13)

Then you will only be asking for things what pleases God!

You will know that He hears you when you make your requests, because He will give you what you ask for, which will be what He desires for you! (See 1. John 5:14-15)

That’s why Jesus said; “You didn’t choose Me. I chose you. I appointed you to go and produce lasting fruit, so that the Father will give you whatever you ask for, using My name!” John 15:16 NLT

JESUS HASN'T CHOSEN THOSE WHO KEEPS ON SINNING - By Edwin Christiaan


Jesus will never choose someone to be His follower, who KEEPS ON living in their sinful lifestyle!

Why? Because the Bible says: “For God knew His people in advance, and He chose them to become like His Son, Jesus Christ!” Romans 8:29 NLT

Jesus only chooses those, who will become like Him! And, in order to become like Jesus Christ, you cannot live a lifestyle of someone who indulges in sexual sin, who worship idols, or commit adultery, or is a male prostitute, or a homosexual, or a thief, or greedy person, or a drunkard, or an abuser, or a cheater! (See 1. Corinthians 6:9-10) Jesus was none of these things!

On the contrary, those Jesus has chosen will testify, saying that once they were like that, but now they are cleansed and made holy and right with God! (See 1. Corinthians 6:11)
God’s chosen children do not make a practice of sinning, for God’s Son, Jesus Christ holds them securely, and the evil one cannot touch them! (See 1. John 5:18) They will become like their Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!!!
