ISN'T JESUS ENOUGH?
REPOST FROM KALI Blogs
The two towering figures of the 20th-century church were canonized today at St. Peter's Square, in Vatican. Pope Francis has declared two of his predecessors, John Paul II and John XXIII, saints of the Roman Catholic church. Here's the guardian update.
I was once a believer of saints. I called them and prayed to them just like most of you do. But then, I learned the obvious - that they are human beings, lived a holy life and served God with all their hearts and with all their souls. Just like us, when we live according to the teachings and examples of Jesus, when we put Him at the center of our lives, we too, is definitely living a holy life. Then, what made them extra special?
I will not preach nor condemn the Roman Catholics. I understand we have differences. You have your beliefs, and I have mine. The only thing that I can do is to share a little of mine (since this is my blog)...
Isn't Jesus enough?
He claimed it in John 14:6
"I am the way, and the truth and the life; no one comes to the Father but through me."
Isn't this clear? Why do we need to put other figures in heaven to be our mediator?
We only have ONE mediator. 1 Timothy 2:5-6
For there is one God, and one mediator also between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, who gave Himself as a ransom for all, the testimony given at the proper time.
How can you refuse Jesus, now?
He gave His life for us. What else could we ask for? Who else do we need?
We are saved by the blood of Jesus Christ. He already ransomed us. Freed us from our sins.
We just have to ACCEPT HIM to be our Lord and Savior. We do not need any other mediator.
Jesus is all we need. HE IS ENOUGH.

PS.
As promise, this is not a preaching... I just wanted to share the TRUTH. This is the least that I can do, as I was once like you, until someone share the same.
You may be a friend or a relative of mine or a devoted believer of Roman Catholic faith, I tell you, I know exactly how you feel. But then again, when I accepted Jesus to be my Lord and Savior, He opened my eyes to this reality.
I am not promoting any religion but a pure relationship with Jesus. Open your Bible. He will show you the way.
God bless you.
