My Best Friend - the Whispers Style
~My Best Friend~
(Whispers Style)
There's a friend who is dynamite
Each day brings His Love, Light
Know Him for long time, yes I do
Hope one day you do too
My best friend is so caring kind
He's friend to all mankind
His name is Jesus and that's so
And He wants to be your friend too, your heart with Him will glow.

1. This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy.
3. Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good.

5. Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
- HOW TO KNOW JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD AND SAVIOR -
-STEP 1.
God loves you and has a plan for you!
The Bible says, 'God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, [Jesus Christ], that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life' (John 3:16).
Jesus said, 'I came that they may have life and have it abundantly' — a complete life full of purpose (John 10:10).
-STEP 2.
Here's the problem: man is sinful and separated from God.
We have all done, thought or said bad things, which the Bible calls 'sin.' The Bible says, 'All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God' (Romans 3:23).
The result of sin is death, spiritual separation from God (Romans 6:23).
The good news?
-STEP 3.
God sent His Son to die for your sins!
Jesus died in our place so we could have a relationship with God and be with Him forever.
'God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us' (Romans 5:8).
But it didn’t end with His death on the cross. He rose again and still lives!
'Christ died for our sins. … He was buried. … He was raised on the third day, according to the Scriptures' (1 Corinthians 15:3-4).
Jesus is the only way to God. Jesus said, 'I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father, but through Me' (John 14:6).
-STEP 4.
Would you like to receive God’s forgiveness?
We can’t earn salvation; we are saved by God’s grace when we have faith in His Son, Jesus Christ. All you have to do is believe you are a sinner, that Christ died for your sins, and ask His forgiveness. Then turn from your sins—that’s called repentance. Jesus Christ knows you and loves you. What matters to Him is the attitude of your heart, your honesty. We suggest praying the prayer below to accept Christ as your Savior.
- JUST PRAY THIS NOW-
'Dear God, I know I’m a sinner, and I ask for your forgiveness. I believe Jesus Christ is Your Son. I believe that He died for my sin and that you raised Him to life. I want to trust Him as my Savior and follow Him as Lord, from this day forward. Guide my life and help me to do your will. I pray this in the name of Jesus. Amen.'
If you have just prayed this prayer, CONGRATULATIONS !!!
You have received Christ as your Savior and have made the best decision you will ever make—one that will change your life forever! Praise the Lord! Amen.

- Thought For The Day -
Jesus sees Himself as mankind's Shepherd. Thankfully, we are more than
just a herd to Him. He knows everything about each one of us - our name,
character, and flaws- and loves us despite all our imperfections. What better
way to show love in return than to know His voice and follow wherever it lead us?
The Bible is the inspired, infallible Word of God. There are no mistakes in it,
and it is wholly true (2 Timothy 3:16; John 17: 17)
There is one God, and He exists in three persons. The Father, the Son, and the
Holy Spirit are all members of the triune Godhead( Mathew. 28:19 )
Eternal Life is received ONLY through Faith in Jesus. Salvation CANNOT be earned by good works ( John 14:6, Eph. 2:8-9 )
Jesus will one day return for those who believe in Him, and He'll take them to
Heaven ( John 14: 2 -3 ) But unbelievers will remain under Divine wrath.
As the culture around us becomes more resistant to Christian influence, holding to these convictions will require solid commitment and steady courage. So determine not to let compromise steal your godly influence.
Lord, thank You for being so trustworthy. I need no other promises but Your Word. Help me to trust You more and more each day. Amen! Amen!
