John 3 Except you repent you shall all likewise perish-as explained from the presence of God in hell tormented forever with gnashing teeth and weeping forever-Revelation 19-22nd chapters the joy of heaven is givent there too by Jesus-for recieving Jesus as savior and best friend.
this is why I started thinking about coming to salvation as a Jew as I learned the prophecies too "He will be exaulted but first marred more than any man. He will lay down his life as a lamb, to make atonement for our sins. All we like sheep have gone astray, and the lord will make to light on him the iniquity of us all." Isaiah 52vs13-53vs12 700bce
as I searched-I found his words of love to all and that he knocked on my heart to come in =
Revelation 3vs19&20 "Behold I love you, and knock on your heart door to come in and deliver from sin and become your friend."
So I prayed- "Jesus I'm sorry for my sins, come into my heart and help me, be my friend, amen"
How did you come to know messiah Jesus-TY

I came to know about HIm at a play called Heaven's Gates and Hell's Flames. I asked forgiveness and I've been on the journey ever since.

There were a few things that led me to receiving Jesus as Lord and Savior.
One was that I was interested in a particular book on prophecy, so my husband suggested that to understand it better, I should read through the bible. Which I did.
Also I heard an invitation to accept Jesus.Until then I didn't realize my need for salvation.
And the "clincher" was going to a bible study. My first one was called "Examine the Evidence". I learned how the bible was written by many different people, divinely inspired by God, from many different back grounds and locations and time periods. And that the bible was written over a long period of time. And despite all of that, it is in perfect harmony from Genesis to Revelation.
And I'm sure that having my saved sisters pray for me for many years had a lot to do with it too!!!
Thank you for an opportunity to share. It is so cool that you came to know Yeshua the Messiah! Keep telling people about Him!
And David - with no disrespect to "Names are much too..." You made the right decision and Jesus is the Messiah that the Jews have been waiting for.

Through Baptism as Jesus actually participated during His life.
Through this outward sign and others, that Jesus instituted during His life on earth, to give Grace to those who believe and followed His Way.
Faith in Action.

God came to me in Nov 76 after my Dad had prayed for me. He gave me His spirit and I was rebaptized in Mar 77.. it wasnt necessary...I had been baptized as a child and I was already born again.

I knew I needed to be forgiven for my sins. And like you he knocked at the door of my heart and I let him come in.

I am happy that you found your "true Guru" (teacher) I found my teacher when I prayed directly to God with contrite heart,God please send me a teacher,he sent me a saint from india,who baptised me in spirit,lifting me up into unconditional love,showing me that i was no longer a sinner or a child of God but that "God dwells within you as you", he taught the same things as jesus but with much more clarity.He caused mine eye to be "single" so that i can see God in all things.his name is Swami muktananda paramahamsa his page is on the net.
