Just kidding! Salvation is only happens when you change your ways!!
Not kidding on that one.
Yes, you can be forgiven of almost every sin, by The MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE, but YOU did not change, so YOU will sin again and again and again and again and again, . . . . This will earn you what?
Boring!!!! It is Repetitive and going nowhere. So what can you do? By the way GOD did offer this to a people once(I will pardon her . . .,Jeremiah 5:1), but it would have made any difference?, None.
There was a people that did it on their own, for a time, the name Nineveh, Jonah 1:2 for a while they changed and then became what they were, about one hundred years later. Jonah 1:2 happened.
So in these we can learn that a people cherished by their GOD would not change, and a people not of the promise chose to change, which changed their outcome.(For a time.)
The keys are: Knowing that you have done wrong; Deciding to humble yourself and learn to do what is Right before GOD; Doing what is righteous(making a good) each and every time; and if you fail you must get up and try harder until you get it right, every time.
Question: So what will this effort get as a result?
Results:
1) Save your soul
2) Show others they can change
3) Put good into the world you live in
4) Make your soul strong each time you do what is righteous
5) Help others, physically and spiritually
6) Teach your children how to get a better life.
7) Save the most valuable possession you will ever have. The possession that is given it’s and your reward when you die, Your little spark of the DEVINE: YOUR SOUL.
