What does it mean to accept Jesus?

[republicanchick]

He said "He that BELIEVETH in Me hath everlasting life.". " Whosoever BELIEVETH in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life.". "I give unto them eternal life and they shall never perish"

so does that scripture passage trump (no pun, political or otherwise intended) all the other passages, where Jesus says stuff like

If you love me you will keep my commandments??


etc... ?

having a conversion experience, a one time event... and then going on to "live your life" as you choose without following Jesus's commands (which requires you to be in HIS Church, not the man made ones)



is NOT being a Christian



and you will end up in Hell if you take that path...



only those who do the will of the Fahter will get to Heaven



I would tend to think that not rejecting the Father's Church would be a good way to do His will

Does your church live by the Ten Commandments?

Or did they try to change them?

History proves that they chose to change them, they thought it would make most pagans happy and join the church. When that did not work they got the State to help them.

No, accepting Jesus as the savior is correct. Seeing him as the son of God and trusting in his words of wisdom is what it is all about. He came to bring us knowledge of his Father and then die for us.
