"Jesus Never Said"
ChurchPOP.com has listed “11 of the Best Things Jesus
Never Said” (gleaned from https://www.facebook.com/ThingsJesusNeverSaid). Here are six of them along with what Jesus
actually said:
Jesus never said, “Get with the times.”
Jesus actually said, "But as the days of Noah were,
so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.
For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking,
marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and
did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the
coming of the Son of Man be.” – Matthew 24:37-39
Jesus never said, “It doesn’t really matter what you do
as long as deep down inside you’re a good person.”
Jesus actually said, “Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord,
Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father
in heaven.” – Matthew 7:21
Jesus never said, “No one comes to the Father except
through Me, but that’s My opinion and all other opinions are equally valid.”
Jesus actually said, “I am the way, the truth, and the
life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.” – John 14:6. “And you shall know the truth, and the truth
shall make you free." – John 8:32
Jesus never said, “This is your best life now, live your
dreams. Unleash your full
potential. Buy material goods and make
yourself happy.”
Jesus actually said, “Take heed and beware of
covetousness, for one's life does not consist in the abundance of the things he
possesses.” – Luke 12:15
Jesus never said, “Has no man condemned you? Then neither do I condemn you. Now go, and do whatever makes you happy.”
Jesus actually said, “Neither do I condemn you; go and
sin no more.” – John 8:11. “Unless you
repent you will all likewise perish.” – Luke 13:3
Jesus never said, “Enter by the broad gate; for wide is
the gate and broad is the way that leads to life, and there are many who go in
by it. Because broad is the gate and
easy is the way that leads to life, and there are many who find it.”
Jesus actually said, “Enter by the narrow gate; for wide
is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many
who go in by it. Because narrow is the
gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find
it.” – Matthew 7:13-14
It’s important to know what Jesus actually said, for He
is the Son of God, the Savior of the world, and the King of kings and Lord of
lords.
God will save from sin and give eternal life to those who
place their faith and trust in Jesus (Acts 16:30-31), turn from sin in
repentance (Acts 17:30-31), confess Him before men (Romans 10:9-10), and are
baptized (immersed) into Christ for the forgiveness of sins
(Acts 2:38). God
will continue to cleanse those who continue to follow what Jesus (and His
inspired apostles and New Testament writers) actually said (1 John 1:7).
Study God’s Word.
Know what He said. Understand His
love for you. Surrender your will to
His. He will do what He says.
