The Simple Truth |
What
|
|
|

|
|
...GOD: |
| "The LORD is righteous in all his ways, and holy in all his works." [Psalms 145:17 KJV] "The eyes of the LORD are in every place, beholding the evil and the good." [Proverbs 15:3 KJV] "The LORD is nigh unto all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him in truth." [Psalms 145:18 KJV] |
|
|
...believing in GOD: |
| "Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble." [James 2:19 KJV] "It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God." [Hebrews 10:31 KJV] |
|
|
...GOD's love [John 3:16]: |
| "Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins." [1 John 4:10 KJV] "In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him." [1 John 4:9 KJV] "But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." [Romans 5:8 KJV] "This Jesus hath God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses." [Acts 2:32 KJV] "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." [John 3:16 KJV] |
|
|
...sin: |
| "If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us." [1 John 1:8 KJV] "There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death." [Proverbs 16:25 KJV] "For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all." [James 2:10 KJV] "Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin." [James 4:17 KJV] "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;" [Romans 3:23 KJV] |
|
|
...judgment: |
| "Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience." [Ephesians 5:6 KJV] "And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:" [Hebrews 9:27 KJV] "And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:" [Matthew 25:32 KJV] "Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:" [Matthew 25:34 KJV] "Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:" [Matthew 25:41 KJV] "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." [Romans 6:23 KJV] "But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed." [Galatians 1:8 KJV] |
|
|
...believing in Jesus: |
| "For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ," [1 Thessalonians 5:9 KJV] "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved." [Acts 4:12 KJV] "He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God." [John 3:18 KJV] "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." [John 14:6 KJV] |
|
|
...being born again: |

[John 3:6 KJV] "Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him." [1 John 5:1 KJV] "He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him." [John 3:36 KJV] |
|
|
...GOD's forgiveness: |
| "The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance." [2 Peter 3:9 KJV] "And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:" [Acts 17:30 KJV] "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." [1 John 1:9 KJV] |
|
|
...salvation: |
| "But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;" "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved." "For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." [Romans 10:8-10 KJV] |
|
|
...prayer: |
| "If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land." [2 Chronicles 7:14 KJV] |
|
|
...The Bible Scriptures used: |
| "So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it." [Isaiah 55:11 KJV] |
|
|
...the simple question: |
| "He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?" [Matthew 16:15 KJV] |
|
|
...His invitation: |
| "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me." [Revelation 3:20 KJV] |
