Some thoughts lately . . .

It occurred to me today, that there are many people of a different faith than I, who are professing their faith more loudly, are more committed to witnessing to others, and are drawing more people into their faith than many Christians are. I asked myself, why is this? Why does this different faith appeal to so many, when I do not see this faith as the truth.

I believe the Bible, and only the Bible is absolute truth. There is no other book. But how do I share this with others?

I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book. If anyone adds anything to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book. And if anyone takes words away from this book of prophecy, God will take away from him his share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are described in this book." - Revelation 22:18-19

How do I convince them that Jesus is the only way to heaven? There are no other rules we must follow to get into heaven.

Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." - John 14:6

I have been a Christian for so many years, that I should know tons of scripture by heart to support my statements previously. However, I can only seem to recall bits and pieces of those scriptures without looking them up in the Bible for exact wording. I hope to never stop growing in my Christian faith.
