You Need MORE Than Faith In Jesus! - John A Halford - June 1984

John A Halford

Millions of people already claim to believe in Jesus. Hundreds of thousands more in all parts of the world will "receive Christ" this year - or rather, they will think that they have received Christ. They will, as they say, "give their hearts to the Lord," and believe that they are at last saved. And they will be wrong! It may come as a shock, but the gospel that is commonly preached today is not the same message that Jesus brought nearly 2,000 years ago. He was not then - and he is not now - trying to convert the world. Neither is he trying to get people to "accept him," "believe in him" or "receive him" before it is too late. This is a deceived world. Deceived people are sincere. They don't know they are deceived. If they did know, they would not be deceived! It is because many are deceived that we read of those who have a "zeal of God, but not according to knowledge" (Rom. 10:2). - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
