Your salvation is not my responsibility!

There has been a bit of a furore over my last blog titled’ Religious tolerance is satan’s work ’. I have been accused of being a bigot, judgmental, knowing what God thinks and all kinds of nonsense. I was also accused of being self righteous and a war monger.

Now I am a simple person, no varsity degree or anything special like that, however I can read. I also have the ability to believe. If the bible tells me that only people who believe in Christ as the Saviour then that is what I believe.

I was asked do I know satan? Well here is the thing, he has been very present in my life, he has tried to derail me daily for eight years. He has robbed me of much in order for me to turn my back on God. So it makes sense to me that if he is doing that to me then he must be responsible for keeping other people away from God. Just as we Christians believe that God uses people on earth to bless us, the opposite must apply, satan uses people to derail us from God. God in turn waits for us to make the right choice in order to bless us. God blesses those who believe and trust in him.

Rebuke the spirit, not the person. We love all people. Do I judge or hate people? Absolutely not! I pray for many unsaved people that I know people who call me stupid, a bigot, judgemental. I have never insulted anyone, called them names or anything like that. I do however tell the truth as I know it. Remember Christians are not here to attack anyone, we are messengers for Christ. If you do not agree with my beliefs, fine, but remember to play the ball not the man.

Your salvation is not my problem, it is yours. That was the gist of my blog: Find your own path, don’t follow what I do. I will fail miserably everytime.

Another word of advice, if Christianity offends you then do not visit those websites. I am grossly offended by pornography and anything to do with satan, so I stay well away from those sites.
