JESUS SAID:

Mar 16:16  He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.

Mar 16:17  And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;

So "Why are there so many fake Christians?"

Don't let feelings get in the way of true bible facts.

So how many thousands and thousands of souls do thay think thay have won for CHRIST?????

Everybody gives their heart, make a decision and a public confession, but nobody's changed.

We all should be baptized and filled with the Holy Spirit speaking in tongues and be on fire.

Romans 10:9 states: "If thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus and shalt believe with thine heart that God has raised Him from the dead thou shalt be saved".

It's more than just the decision.

During the last century this text has been considered by fundamentalists such as Baptists and Brethren to be a promise depicting the way of salvation for sinful man. As a result evangelical campaigns are mounted whose sole aim is to induce people to make a "decision for Christ" followed by a public confession such as answering an altar call. Every type of psychological technique is used to promote these decisions, the candidate is then told he is saved. As we shall see, this can be totally incorrect and the above scripture is being grossly misused. 

The key to the above verse is that we must believe "in our hearts" for salvation. We put the question "Which heart"? The Bible refers to two. There is the heart of man and the new heart promised to those filled with God's Holy Spirit. 

Rom 8:1  There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
Rom 8:2  For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.

The Bible says: the heart (of man) is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked: who can know it." (Jeremiah 17: 9.) The heart of man is so treacherous that God tells us in Isaiah 44 how the heathen are able to use one half of a piece of wood to light their cooking fires and the other half to make an idol, and "He feedeth (spiritually) on ashes: a deceived heart hath turned him aside that he cannot deliver his soul nor say `Is there not a lie in my right hand?` "

Rom 8:6  For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
Rom 8:7  Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.
Rom 8:8  So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.
Rom 8:9  But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. (Some Bibles say you're not a Christian at all) Did Paul really say that???  YES he did, not to hurt you, but to save you.

So who do you believe, Jesus or man??????

Don't let feelings get in the way of true bible facts.

The Bible says: Jesus is the word and the word is Jesus, So who do you believe????

Will you stand before Jesus and say I didn't like your word or you??????

JESUS SAID:

Mar 16:15  And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

Mar 16:16  He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.

Mar 16:17  And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;

Mar 16:18  They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

So who do you believe, Jesus or man or your desperately wicked heart or a church ???????

Peter SAID:

Act 2:38  Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

So who do you believe Jesus or man??  Jesus is the word and the word is Jesus.

Peter SAID:

Act 10:46  For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter,

Act 10:47  Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we?

So how did Peter know they receive the Holy Spirit????

Paul SAID:

Act 19:2  He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost.

Act 19:3  And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized? And they said, Unto John's baptism.

Act 19:4  Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus.

Act 19:5  When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.

Act 19:6  And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied.

Paul SAID: No Other Gospel, and let him be accursed.
Gal 1:6  I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:
Gal 1:7  Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
Gal 1:8  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.
Gal 1:9  As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.

Paul wrote his books inspired by the Holy Spirit and Jesus is the word and the word is Jesus.

MAN'S WAYS ARE NOT GOD'S WAYS
The error of the false prophets or preachers of Israel in Jeremiah's time was not hypocrisy but something far more dangerous. They were putting their trust in that which they felt in their hearts instead of in the specific commands of God`s Word. "How long shall this be in the heart of the prophets that prophesy lies. Yes, they are prophets of the deceit of their own hearts ... they speak a vision of their own heart and not out of the mouth of the Lord." (Jeremiah 23: 16-2').

Yet today people are still pinning their hope of salvation to what they feel in their hearts. They could not trust a more treacherous vessel and their decision will endure for eternity. The delusion is even more dangerous when they neglect the baptism with the Holy Spirit "with signs following", which truly ministers salvation because of the image or idol called salvation which their hearts have deceived them into trusting. Only after the genuine Bible experience is our salvation assured in God's Word. 

In Ezekiel` 36: 26-27 We read: "A new heart also will I give you and a new Spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. And I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in my statutes and ye shall keep my judgments and do them". In other words the characteristic of the new heart is that it teaches us not to trust our emotions and feelings but to obey God's Word. "Behold, saith the Lord. I will make a new covenant... I will put My laws into their minds and write them in their hearts, and I will be to them a God and they shall be to me a people". (Hebrews 8: 8-10.) And lest we should be in any doubt as to when this change takes place, Hebrews 10: 15-16 refers to the above scripture as being significant of the Holy Ghost witnessing within us.

Women In The Church?

1Co 14:34  Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law

Gen 3:16  Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.

Eph 5:22  Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.

1Ti 2:11  Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.
1Ti 2:12  But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.
1Ti 2:13  For Adam was first formed, then Eve.
1Ti 2:14  And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.

A DIFFICULT QUESTION
How if this change of heart is a necessary and integral part of the new covenant could the Lord make salvation dependent solely on a decision of the old, treacherous heart? And what is more, a decision in the realm where it is most deceitful -in the identification of the person and nature of God. (Isaiah 44.) 

The old man knows absolutely nothing about God. Scripture says : "No man can say or announce that Jesus is Lord but by the Holy Spirit". We must be"born of" or filled with the Spirit before we even begin to comprehend the lordship of Jesus Christ.

1Co 12:2  Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these dumb idols, even as ye were led.
1Co 12:3  Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.

A man who truly believes that Jesus is the Lord of all, lives perpetually in the victory which Jesus has purchased. He has freedom from sin, freedom from sickness, power to testify and the power to demonstrate God's presence in his life. He has this: God-given ability to speak in tongues because of the indwelling Spirit, and the potential to exercise any of the miraculous gifts of the Spirit. He casts out demons by a word and is protected from accident. He lives in the supernatural world which God appointed for those born of the Spirit.

A Christian in his personal life.

In his personal life, Jesus is not his Lord in theory but in fact. The blood of Christ washes deeply in his soul, not dryly through his Iegal mind without effecting change. 

The Lord has warned us of our tendency toward unbelief, but He has given us the answer, which is to obey His simple commands. His word is explicit. We cannot sidestep it and we should not try. Not a single scripture supports the idea of a saved condition anywhere short of the baptism with the Holy Spirit. Therefore let us enter wholeheartedly into this experience with thanksgiving.

Fake Christians Walk in Darkness. 1 John 1:5–10
Rom 8:9  But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.

So "Why are there so many fake Christians?"

Gal 1:9  As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.

Answer: An other gospel.

A Christian can be defined as a person who has, by faith, received and fully trusted in Jesus Christ as the only Savior from sin (John 3:16; Acts 16:31; Ephesians 2:8–9). And in the heart of the Christian resides the Spirit of Christ (Ephesians 3:17; 1 Corinthians 6:19; Romans 8:11). Now, “if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ” (Romans 8:9), and this person, then, is not a Christian. Thus, the term “fake Christian” is a misnomer (a wrong or inaccurate use of a name or term). You are a Christian or you are not a Christian; one is either with God or against God.

Mat 12:30  He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad.
Mat 12:31  Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men.

blasphemy: Blasphemy, βλασφημια [G988], either from βλαπειν [G984], την φημην, to hurt, or blast the reputation, or from βαλλειν [G906], ταις φημαις, to smite with words, or reports, when applied to men denotes injurious speaking, or calumny, and when used in reference to God signifies speaking impiously of his nature, attributes, and works.

That being said, this question is certainly a legitimate one in the minds of many people. And this is likely due to the behavior of some Christians; however, it is also likely because of the behavior of many who think they are Christians or profess to be Christians, but who are not. The reasons many believe they are true Christians when they are not are many and varied. The false teaching that is so prevalent these days is certainly one reason. When churches are not teaching sound doctrine, the end result will be people who do not know the truth of God’s Word. How can they keep in step with the Spirit, when the Truth is not in them?

1Jn 2:3  And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.
1Jn 2:4  He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.

Act 10:48  And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days.

Mat 28:18  And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
Mat 28:19  Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
Mat 28:20  Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

mans commandments???

Act 4:18  And they called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus.
Act 4:19  But Peter and John answered and said unto them, Whether it be right in the sight of God to hearken unto you more than unto God, judge ye.

The altar call

Also, some believe their recitation of a prayer or responding to an “altar call” alone may have turned them into a Christian. Many believe their religious traditions, such as being baptized as an infant, secured a spot in heaven for them, or that their plentiful good works alone have put them in good standing with God. And, of course, some believe church attendance alone guarantees salvation. The point is that many who profess to be Christians are not Christians at all. Yet they complacently remain convinced that all is well with their soul. Sadly, many will live their entire lives believing they were Christians only to one day hear these words from Jesus Christ: “I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!”.

So if you think your “altar call” alone may have turned you into a Christian.

JESUS SAID:
Mar 16:16  He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.

Mar 16:17  And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;

The Bible SAID: Jesus is the word and the word is Jesus, So who do you believe ????

So will you stand before Jesus and say I didn't like your word or believe you ??????

So are you a believer or an unbeliever ???????

Don't let feelings get in the way of true bible facts.

Paul SAID: No Other Gospel.
Gal 1:10  For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.

Gal 1:11  But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.
Gal 1:12  For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.

Paul SAID:

So he got the revelation of Jesus Christ.

1Co 14:18  I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all:

Eph 3:3  How that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery; (as I wrote afore in few words,
Eph 3:4  Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ)

Paul SAID:

1Co 15:1  Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
1Co 15:2  By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
1Co 15:3  For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
1Co 15:4  And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

THERE is only one Gospel — only one true message of good news from heaven. But there are many substitutes offered in place of the Gospel. It was so in the beginning. It is so now.

Romans 10:9 states: "If thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus and shalt believe with thine heart that God has raised Him from the dead thou shalt be saved".

JESUS SAID:

Joh 7:38  He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.
Joh 7:39  (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)

Mar 16:17  And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
Mar 16:18  They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

The Coming of the Holy Spirit
Act 2:1  And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.
Act 2:2  And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.
Act 2:3  And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.
Act 2:4  And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

Again, Peter SAID:

Act 2:38  Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

Peter SAID:

Act 10:47  Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we?

Mar 4:11  And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables:

Rom 16:25  Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began,

Eph 3:3  How that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery; (as I wrote afore in few words,
Eph 3:4  Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ)

Col 2:2  That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ;
Col 2:3  In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.

Mat 7:24  Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:

Jud 1:20  But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,  (this is praying in tongues)
Jud 1:21  Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.

Mar 16:18  They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

Mar 16:20  And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.

What is the Greatest Spiritual Truth we can Learn?

Php 2:5  Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:

JESUS, the servant GOD, so be a servant to.

Rom 8:28  And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
Rom 8:29  For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.

2Co 3:17  Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
2Co 3:18  But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.

So what is the image of JESUS, the servant GOD???

Jesus washing the disciples feet and then Jesus washing us in his  BLOOD on the CROSS.

Col 2:13  And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;
Col 2:14  Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;

So the Greatest Spiritual Truth is, be like Jesus the Man GOD, be a SERVANT.

Bless Israel and peace to Jerusalem.

Gen 12:2  And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:
Gen 12:3  And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.
