No Other God

Anyone that is a true believer knows that there is only one God and we can have no other gods before us!!  If we have any idols in our lives we will make the Lord jealous because we belong to the Lord if we have been born-again.  Please read Exodus 34:14, “For thou shalt worship no other god: for the Lord, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God.”

Now please read what Paul said in 1 Corinthians 8:4-6, “Therefore concerning the eating of things offered to idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no other God but one. For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as there are many gods and many lords), yet for us there is one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we for Him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and through whom we live.”

For the true born-again believer there is only one God, Yeshua, the Messiah the creator of the heaven and the earth along with its entire array.  You can read about this in the Word of God in the first book in Genesis, the first chapter; and  after He was finished He rested on the seventh day.  Just think, He did it in just six literal days, praise the Lord!!  And it also says this in the fourth book of the New Testament in John 1:1-5, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.”

And who was John talking about?  Read John 1:14-18, “And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth. John bore witness of Him and cried out, saying, ‘This was He of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me is preferred before me, for He was before me.’ And of His fullness we have all received, and grace for grace. For the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. No one has seen God at any time. The only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared Him.”

If you want to know the only true God in a personal way you will have go through His Son, Jesus.  Please read John 14:6, “Jesus said to him, ‘I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.’”   

I have spent many years in the Word and have listened to many preachers and teachers and have read a multitude of books over the years and spent many hours in prayer, so I don’t take lightly the Word of God or my walk with Him.  I am not a prophet or the son of a prophet or a pastor and at this point I am not even a teacher but I believe that God speaks to those that are intent on listening and are in His Word and those who seek His heart.

God’s Word says this in Jeremiah 29:12-14 when the Israelites were in exile in Babylon, “Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart. I will be found by you, says the Lord, and I will bring you back from your captivity; I will gather you from all the nations and from all the places where I have driven you, says the Lord, and I will bring you to the place from which I cause you to be carried away captive.”

Some teach that there is more than one way to get to God or to heaven but as for me I believe the Word of God is the most authoritative word there is and the real truth!!  If it says there is only one way, there is but one way and that settles it for me!!  

If you want to know the only true God, you will have to have a personal relationship with God’s only begotten Son, Jesus, because you cannot get to God the Father except through His Son, Jesus.  If you are fed up and sorry for your sins I believe that is the starting place.  Then ask the Lord to forgive you of your sins and to cleanse you of all your unrighteousness and to come into your heart and be your Lord and Savior; if you are sincere, I believe He will.  But don’t be in a hurry, spend some time in the Lord’s presence and just praise and thank Him for what He has done.  The preachers in the past didn’t rush people into this decision, they first made sure that people knew where they stood before God, that they were enemies of God and there was a gulf between nonbelievers and God and far more extreme things than this.  There are only two roads to travel, the narrow road that leads to the kingdom and the wide road that leads to destruction.  The choice is yours, I pray that you make the right one.

Before I am done let me throw in some grace here.  Check out 2 Peter 3:9, “The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.”       

Now read John 3:16-17, “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.”

May the good Lord bless you and yours and may you all have a super day!!  PS don’t forget to thank and praise the Lord, for He is worthy!!
