Jesus ssid,"I am the way and the truth and the life. No man cometh unto The Father except through Me."

Unless we accept Jesus and the Sacrifice He made for us not one of us will make it to Heaven and eternal life. Jesus Christ MUST be the Master and The Lord of your life.

Lord, be at my side when I knock on the door,
For I've sullied myself and I know the score.
If not for You He'd not let me in,
For I am unworthy and covered in sin.

Will You come with me when before Him I stand?
Will You speak for me, will You hold my hand;
For I am afraid Lord, and I am ashamed,
For my body and soul are ugly and stained.

I've been touched by anger and envy and lust,
By greed and vengeance and filled with mistrust;
But since You found me, I've tried hard to change.
It's been a slow process, but I've rearranged,

The way that I see things, the way that I feel.
It happened when finally, I knew You are real.
I invited You in and You changed my life.
I've slipped many times and there've been times of strife,

But You have stuck with me through thick and through thin,
And You never left me, You're my only true friend;
So, when the time comes will You come with me;
For as long as You're there the sin He won't see.

He'll listen to You if You'll speak for me.
He will forgive if You forgive me.
I'll no longer reek with the stench of my sin,
For You saved me and cleansed me and You brought me in.

We became sinners. The important thing is a change of heart, Like Zaccheus who was a great thief but Jesus Himself invited himself for lunch.

I remember that story. Zaccheus was a tax collector and so looked upon as a thief by the people of the village. He heard that Jesus was visiting the village and wanted to see Him. Zacheus was very short of stature and couldn't see above the throng so he climbed a tree and as Jesus came to the tree He said "Zaccheus! Come down. I will visit with you at your house this day.' What a wonderful story. Thanks bunches Victor. God Bless, JB

Amen I love it if we are not wicked from our beginning Jesus would not have had to come, but we must all be made into a new creation only through him
