Do you have any parting words of spiritual or life advice for fellow R&S members?

Only a couple days to go until YA is no more, so do you have any final words of wisdom to share?

    The meaning of life, everything good-- really is summed up in “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself.”

    If you can't believe in God, at least love what is good with everything you got. But trust me, God is real.

    Rapture will happen one day. Many people will disappear from this earth, and some will be left behind. Whether that happens in your lifetime or not, I urge you to find God, develop a good relationship with Him, and repent before it's too late. Our loving Father created us and sent His only begotten Son to save us, and even when it doesn't feel like it, the Holy Spirit is always with us to guide us and remind us that He is always here. Unfortunately, you might go to Hell if you don't do this before it's too late. I really hope to see you all in Heaven. Good bye and God bless you all.

    Remember, morality and purpose can be found within. You don't need to be handed these things on a platter. We all have the ability to know right from wrong. It is up to us alone to decide what we want our lives to be about. Letting other people tell you what is right or wrong can often have disastrous results. Choose love over hate.

    Yes, let’s get them ready.

    So, what must one do to be saved?

    Let’s hear what Jesus Himself said on the subject as salvation is in none other than Him: “He who has believed and has been baptized shall be saved; but he who has disbelieved shall be condemned.” [Mark 16:16]

    Simple logic dictates that in order to be saved one must be forgiven, have the Holy Spirit, be a member of the Church, and be “in” Christ. >>At baptism our sins are forgiven, we receive the Holy Spirit, we are added to the Church, we put on Christ, we are saved [Acts 2:38]; [Acts 2:47]; [Galatians 3:27] -- [1 Peter 3:21] "Corresponding to that, baptism now saves you—not the removal of dirt from the flesh, but an appeal to God for a good conscience—through the resurrection of Jesus Christ.”

    Faith is taking the first step to trust God. Repentance is “a change of mind” (making a commitment to follow Christ and let go of sin---God wants us saved from evil; not while we continue in it), and the very next step toward salvation followed by baptism which is the very first step of obedience.

    Sure, while the globe has been in shutdown mode, many things can easily wait. But “baptism” is not one of them, as long as it’s kept within the pandemic rules, for example, family and friends can watch the proceedings on video. These services may proceed with as few as four people: the baptismal candidate, the pastor or baptism performer, and at least two witnesses. This practice represents the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus. <You cannot go virtual with it> “Baptism incorporates us into the Church.” “For by one Spirit, we were all baptized into one body.” The Gospel continues, pandemic or not.

    To get you going, visit this website:

    I recommend the NASB. Read it and apply it! Pray to God, talk to God, chat with God, and listen to Him “hear Him.” <You have now entered the Race of Faith. <While we stay in the Race, God keeps us saved> -- [John 3:36] “He who believes in the Son has eternal life; but he who does not obey the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him.”

    It may seem like a lot of rules, but you will quickly notice how one ties into the next. In the end, it'll all make sense. Just remember you are not journeying alone---Someone (the Holy Spirit) has moved in with you.

    See you there…

    The Rapture is biblical and soon to happen. Surely one cannot ignore all the signs.

    <Sorry, spiritual things can't always be briefly explained>

    “Do all the good you can,

    By all the means you can,

    In all the ways you can,

    In all the places you can,

    At all the times you can,

    To all the people you can,

    As long as ever you can.”

    ~ John Wesley

    I know it will be really lonely for retired people who live alone.  Very sad to see it go.

    Yes.  Experience God for yourself.  Millions do so every year. You should, too.   It's the logical thing to do.  Don't bother moving the goalposts.  It's more evidence than atheists have to shore up their fantasy that there is no God.

    Endeavor to persevere.

    Look out for number one but don't step on number two.
