I am sure that when you had your true encounter with Jesus, that encounter was remarkable and unforgettable, that is, if you have lived that moment.

I know that before that meeting, you lived a life of dreams and illusions and often questioned the real existence of God or questioned whether God really hears prayers.

Unfortunately, these doubts still exist for many people, who learned the stories of Adam and Eve, Noah, Jesus Christ and many others, but they were not taught on the true foundations of these stories and also on the true message of the gospel of Jesus Christ.

These people are still blind and are being led by other blind people, as Jesus said:

Matthew 15:14 ​Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.If a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into the hole.

And if these people don't open their eyes, they will perish.

The Bible teaches that when a man has a true encounter with Jesus he becomes a NEW CREATURE, who does not live according to the flesh, his desires or sins, but lives according to the Spirit, according to the desires of God and seeking sanctification.

2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

Romans 8:4-5 ​That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. ​For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.

When someone gives his life to Jesus, it means that he has repented of his sins, accepted Jesus as his lord and savior, and as a consequence, a change of thoughts and attitudes will come.

So, God gives that person a new opportunity and a new life, where the past of sins, doubts, lack of faith and lack of communion with God, are no longer part of his life, because from then on, it becomes a NEW CREATURE, that is, it is as if God had created it again, such is the power and depth of this transformation.

Isaiah 1:18 Come now, and let us reason together, said the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.

If you still have doubts about whether God really exists or if you know God just by hearing about it and don't know Him by having fellowship with Him, or if you still live a life of sin and destruction, then you need to BE BORN AGAIN and BE TRANSFORMED BY JESUS and BE A NEW CREATURE .

Make that decision today, let God DO ALL NEW THINGS in your life, reject the sin and unbelief that surrounds your heart and truly give yourself to Jesus and then ALL THINGS around you and in your life will be transformed.

John 3:3 Jesus answered and said to him, Truly, truly, I say to you, except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

God bless you and keep you.
