No Forgotten Passwords

When we have computers we often have all kinds of accounts online and for security purposes in order to login to them, we are required to create a "user I.D." and a "password" which allows access into that site after we enter the required login information correctly.

When we forget what our user I.D. or password is, we are denied access to that secure site and we are given the message "your password or user I.D. does not match our records." How frustrating it is when we are not allowed access! How frustrating it is to have forgotten the I.D. and/or password that we created! God gave us the promise of eternal life when we became a Christian and He knows the I.D. of each and every one of us.

My Bible explains how to become a Christian.....if you are not a Christian and want to become one, all you have to do is confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord" and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. - Romans 10:9,10

When you "receive Christ" you acknowledge your belief in Christ, you invite him to come into your life, and are to turn to God from your present way of living (repentance) then take the adventure of letting God direct your life! Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God. - John 1:12

As a child in God's family we still mess up. (too many times to count, for me!) However, God loves us so much that he will always forgive us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. - 1 John 1:9

Jesus died to take the penalty for our sins and took our punishment so we wouldn't have to. For Christ died for sins once and for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive by the Spirit. - 1 Peter 3:18

God knows the I.D. of each of his followers who became one of his children when we received Christ. God never forgets who we are nor will he ever abandon us or reject us no matter how much or how badly we sin. We are able to feel safe and secure in our salvation because we chose to follow Jesus. Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." - John 14:6

To gain access to Heaven where we will have eternal life, God knows our I.D. already and what we need to remember daily is to live to please "Jesus Christ" for He is our password for secure entry! And that password is an easy one to remember!
