Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away;

LOOKS CAN BE DECEIVING  Know Who You are Serving


False Christ Vs The True Christ 

Here is a description of the false Christ as outlined in Revelation 6:2

  • A white horse 

  • The rider has a bow and a crown

  • He went out conquering and to conquer 

  • This rider has a bow and a crown was given unto him and he went out conquering and to conquer. The rider of this white horse looks like Christ but he is not Christ. 

Know for certain whom you are serving.
Study the word of God daily.

Here is the description of Christ as outlined in Revelation 19:11-16 

  • And I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse, and He who sat on it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and wages war. (11)

  • His eyes are a flame of fire, and on His head are many diadems; and He has a name written on Him which no one knows except Himself. (12)

  • He is clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The Word of God. (13)

  • And the armies which are in heaven, clothed in fine linen, white and clean, were following Him on white horses. (14)

  • From His mouth comes a sharp sword, so that with it He may strike down the nations, and He will rule them with a rod of iron; and He treads the wine press 
    of the fierce wrath of God, the Almighty. (15) 

  • And on His robe and on His thigh He has a name written, (16)

  • "KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS." (17)

 


A Prayer To Receive Salvation

 

Dear God. 
I confess that I am a sinner. I believe that Jesus Christ your Son died for my sins. I ask you to forgive my sins and I accept your Son into my life as my personal Lord and Saviour. I believe you raised Him from the dead and because of that, I know I can live a victorious new life in Christ. Thank you for my salvation, in Jesus' name I pray. Amen

Acts 2:38
Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, .....
