A friend of mine, as well as a future sister in the truth by the name of Lameya Gadsden posted this and I am sharing it. !
The reason being is because I found a real value in her pointing this out. Studying the truth and loving Jehovah.. she has clearly made a valid point about us all making sure of the 'more important things' in life..
Everyone says that it doesn't matter what you believe as far as religion and that it doesn't matter the God you choose to worship because they all go to the same person. They say God has many names so it doesn't matter which one you address him he will still hear your prayers and respond. They say once "saved" always saved and that no matter what you do in life you are still accepted by God, so live it up to the fullest because life's to short not to be happy.
PAY CLOSE ATTENTION!!!
When Jesus was on earth he didn't preach many religions or many Gods that we should be worshiping. MATTHEW 7:13,14,21
It does matter what we believe because those things are what will mold our entire lives. Eve believed the lie Satan told and look what it got her and the entire human race. GENESIS 1:4-6
Paul a disciple of Jesus said that those that called on the name of Jehovah would be saved. ROMANS 10:13, ACTS 2:21, and JOEL 2:32
We are not here to please ourselves. We are here to please God, Take care of the earth and to bring him Glory by doing his will. Ecclesiastes 12:13, Genesis 1:26-28
*MAKE SURE OF THE MORE IMPORTANT THINGS*
Indeed.. Its amazing how Paul was helping us all to remember the words in the Book of Joel! Though I had to find out who wrote Acts.. the message is still clear.. !
And as my soon to be husband Timothy Coaxum said.. "However, how will they call on him if they have not put faith in him? How, in turn, will they put faith in him about whom they have not heard? How, in turn, will they hear without someone to preach?" - Therefore, it is important for us to persevere and continue in our divinely inspired commission to "Preach the word, be at it urgently"! ROMANS 10:14, 2 TIMOTHY 4:2
