The Secret Of The Faith

7Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: 8for every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. Matthew 7:7 and 8
1901 American Standard Version

For the Son of man came to seek and to save that which was lost. Luke 19:10

I have God's spirit, I know the secret to an extent, I have the capacity to reveal what I know. The Bible expounds on the secret. Most people have access to a Bible. God reveals the secret to whom He pleases and the Bible makes it plain. What makes it a secret is not that it is impossible to find out, it is that God has not inclined the person to search for it, or to notice it, or to take it to heart. Another thing is that the secret is not a one statement explanation, it is rather a way of life that needs to be adapted and it is a multifaceted way. Conversion can take but a few moments of profound determination, as was evidenced by the man who converted on the cross or stake with Christ. For those who have many years to live they must hold fast to their new way of life for the rest of their lives.

To any genuine Bible student, that is a Christian, the secret is greatly revealed. When you become a Christian you accept Christ's sacrifice for your sins. You get baptized which symbolizes your death and you receive God's spirit, which is Christ living in you, through the laying on of hands. God is life. Christ is the only begotten son of God and is the one and only way to life, that is eternal immortal life. To find out about His way you have to read and study the Bible, or you have to get ministerial help through a church and you may need study guides. I sincerely hope that this website is of some assistance. Now you know the secret that is hidden from mankind at large but is well known in western civilization.

14 You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Nor do men light a lamp, and put it under the peck~measure, but on the lampstand; and it gives light to all who are in the house. 16 Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven. Matthew 5:14 to 16

By this scripture I understand that I have the capacity and the freedom to produce this website.

Therefore, since we have this ministry, as we received mercy, we do not lose heart, 2 but we have renounced the things hidden because of shame, not walking in craftiness or adulterating the word of God, but by the manifestation of truth commending ourselves to every man�s conscience in the sight of God. 3 And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, 4 in whose case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving, that they might not see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. 5 For we do not preach ourselves but Christ Jesus as Lord, and ourselves as your bond~servants for Jesuss sake. 6 For God, who said, Light shall shine out of darkness, is the One who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ. 2 Corinthians 4:1 to 6

Jesus said to him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father, but through Me. John 14:6

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to his great mercy begat us again unto a living hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4unto an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you, 5who by the power of God are guarded through faith unto a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. 1 Peter 1:3 to 5
