Hello readers! I am a girl with an overactive imagination and some random hyperactive bursts. I get it from my six year old brother. Writing and reading are two things I do a lot. I may offend some people without meaning to and forgive me if I do. I just want say that I want your imput. This is your blog too. Just ask and if I like it and it is reasonable, I'll put it onto my blog! I may be a little childish at times, but hey, that's how I am. Look around to see what I've made! Enjoy!

Good Day Mate! How About a New Verse?
Alriht! Today's verse comes from the book of Acts. The full name of hte book is Acts of the Apostles. This books talks about all the diferent ways the Apostles, people who saw Jesus face to face, witnessed. The verse we'll be looking at is when Peter, a leader in the witnessing and disciple of Jesus, and John, one of Jesus' closest disciples, are witnessing in the temple of the city. They are then taken to the religious leaders. They are asked how do they heal the sick. Peter told them that through the power of the Holy Ghost they could do these things. The verse we'll be looking at is Acts 4:12. "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved." This is Peter speaking. He is talking about Christ. The Jewish leaders do not believe that Christ is the Messiah because Christ pointed out all of their sins. Jesus filled every prophesy that there was about the Messiah's coming, and there are around a hundred and over prophesies about the Messiah. Jesus fulfilled them all in His thirty-three to thirty-four years of living on earth. Peter is saying that Christ is the only one that has fulfilled all the requirments. He is the only way to heaven, not some idol or some other person. You cannot be saved through anyone else. Christ is the only way to heaven. "I am the way the truth and the life, not man cometh unto the Father but by me." Jesus himself said that in His earthly ministry. There is no man on earth given the authority to save souls other than Jesus. Jesus, the beloved Son of God, is the only one that can save. So, are you saved by His sacrifice?
