Dear Ron:
Here are the facts. Please remember them. 1.) It is not your job to save
people unless you are the Holy Spirit. 2.) You do not love God. 3.) You
are not repenting of the fact that you do not know how to repent; your
repentence is cold and careless. 4.) You hate your neighbor. 5.) You do
not believe in the word of God. 6.) You are full of pride and ambition.
7.) You have no faith. 8.) If you loved God, then you would be constantly
thinking of Him with heartfelt satisfaction; every thought of God would fill
you with joy and delight. 9.) You think more and with greater eagerness
about worldly thnigs, while thoughts of God present difficulty and aridity.
10.) You do not find delight in prayer but you find it difficult to pray.
11.) You are weakened by slothfulness and you are willing to do any thing
insignificant only to shorten or end your prayer. 12.) You are dry, bored,
and lazy. 13.) You seek satisfaction for your love of knowledge of
acquiring possessions. 14.) You are not ready to lay down your life for the
good of your neighbor according to the Gospel. 15.) If you loved your
neighbor as you love yourself, as the Gospels command, then your neighbors
misfortune would grieve you and his prosperity would bring you great joy.
16.) You do not sympathize with the failings of your brother but you judge
them and publicize them. 17.) Your neigbor's welfare, honor, and happiness
do not delight you as your own; you are either completely indifferent to
them or you are jealous or envious. 18.) If you believed in without doubt
in eternal life and in retribution for your earthly actions, then you would
be constantly thinking about this; the very thought of immortality would
inspire you with wonder and awe and you would live your life as an alien who
is getting ready to enter his native land. 19.) All your actions confirm
that you are full of pride and self-love. 20.) When you see something good
in yourself, then you wish to display it or brag about it to others, or
interiorly you are full of self-love even when outwardly you feign humilty.
21.) You acribe everything to your own ability and you consider yourself
more perfect than others, or at least not worse. 22.) If you notice a vice
in yourself, you try to excuse it or justify it; you pretend to be
innocentor you claim that you couldn't help it. 23.) You are impatient with
those who do not show you respect and consider them incapable of judging
character. 24.) You grumble and you are glad to see the misfortune of your
enemies, and your intention in doing anything good is either praise,
self-interest, or earthly comfort. 25.) If you loved God, then you would be
riding a steel Colnago or at least a steel Gios Compact.
Sincerely, etc.

Quoted message said:
The reason some people don't know for sure
if they are going to Heaven when they die
is because they just don't know.The good news is that you can know for
sure that you are going to Heaven which is
described in the Holy Bible as a beautiful
place with no death, sorrow, sickness or
pain.God tells us in the Holy Bible how simple
it is to be saved so that we can live
forever with Him in Heaven."For if you confess with your mouth Jesus
is Lord and believe in your heart that God
raised Him from the dead, you
WILL BE SAVED." (Romans 10:9)Over 2000 years ago God came from Heaven
to earth in the person of Jesus Christ to
shed His blood and die on a cross to pay
our sin debt in full.Jesus Christ was born in Israel
supernaturally to a virgin Jewish woman
named Mary and lived a sinless life for
thirty-three years.At the age of thirty-three Jesus was
scourged and had a crown of thorns pressed
onto His head then Jesus was crucified.Three days after Jesus died on a cross and
was placed in a grave Jesus rose from the
dead as Jesus said would happen before
Jesus died.If someone tells you that they are going
to die and in three days come back to life
again and it happens then this person must
be the real deal.Jesus Christ is the only person that ever
lived a perfect sinless life.This is why Jesus is able to cover our
sins(misdeeds) with His own blood because
Jesus is sinless.The Holy Bible says, "In Him(Jesus) we
have redemption through His blood, the
forgiveness of sins..." (Ephesians 1:7)If you would like God to forgive you of
your past, present and future sins just
ask Jesus Christ to be your Lord and
Saviour.It doesn't matter how old you are or how
many bad things that you have done in
your life including lying and stealing
all the way up to murder.Just pray the prayer below with your
mouth and mean it from your heart and
God will hear you and save you.Dear Jesus Christ, I want to be saved so
that I can have a home in Heaven with You
when I die. I agree with You that I am a
sinner. I believe that You love me and want
to save me. I believe that You bled and
died on the cross to pay the penalty for my
sins and that You rose from the dead.
Please forgive my sins and come into my
heart and be my Lord and Saviour. Thanks
Lord Jesus Christ for forgiving me and
saving me through Your merciful grace.
Amen.Welcome to the family of God if you just
allowed God to save you. Now you are a real
Christian and you can know for sure that
you will live in Heaven forever when this
life comes to an end.As a child of God we are to avoid
sin(wrongdoing), but if you do sin the
Holy Bible says, "My dear children, I
write this to you so that you will not sin.
But if anybody does sin, we have one who
speaks to the Father in our defense Jesus
Christ, the Righteous One."Those of you that have not yet decided to
place your trust in the Lord Jesus Christ
may never get another chance to do so
because you do not know when you will die.This means that if you die without
trusting in Jesus Christ as your Lord and
Saviour you will be forever separated from
the love of God in a place called Hell.The Holy Bible descibes Hell as a place of
eternal torment, suffering, pain and agony
for all those who have rejected Jesus Christ.The good news is that you can avoid Hell by
allowing Jesus Christ to save you today.
Only then will you have true peace in your
life knowing that no matter what happens you
are on your way to Heaven.Praise the Lord!
Servant of the Lord Jesus Christ
Ronald L. Grossi*Show this to your family and friends so
they can know that they have a choice
where they will spend eternity. Thanks!____________________________________________________

The Death of John Paul II
John Paul II gained the whole world but
forfeited his soul. Year after year he
was the most loved and admired man in
the world. The idolatrous veneration
and adoration of this man was
unprecedented. His devotees, who are now
singing his praises, are probably
ignorant of the strong rebuke of Jesus
who said, "Woe to you when all men speak
well of you" (Luke 6:26). Had the pope
been devoted to Jesus Christ and His
Gospel of grace, he would have been
hated and persecuted by the world.
No one can judge John Paul's heart but
we are all called to judge the fruit of
our spiritual leaders. Clearly this man
was blinded by the prince of this world
and never saw the light of the gospel or
the glory of Christ. I mourn the death
of this man, not for the reason the
world mourns, but because he rejected
Jesus as God's only provision for his
sins. I also have a solemn compassion
for those who blindly followed this pope
and his man-centered religion. My heart
is painfully burdened to see so many
"professing" Christians unable to
discern truth from error and genuine
Christianity from its counterfeit.The rest of this article that was
