PASTOR JOHN COLLINS, JOHN COLLINS MINISTRIES: So......you've sinned A LOT!?

From John Collins, Evangelist:



“This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief.” 1 Timothy 1:15 (NKVJ).

Okay, so you have sinned, A LOT!!

There are many who don’t bother to call on Jesus
because deep down they don’t believe that they are worthy
of forgiveness~Pastor John Collins
At what point do you give up and believe that you are not savable? At what point do you believe that God would not forgive you, that only the devil will have you and that you are not worth saving anyway? This is more common than you may think. As many as justify their sin and take Jesus for granted, there are just as many who don’t bother to call on Jesus because deep down they don’t believe that they are worthy of walking the streets of heaven and living in eternal bliss.




Satan has done his work well. He has planted doubts and he has spread so many lies that many have come to believe that they are truth. God is not a cruel dictator in the sky and Jesus wants to forgive you and died for you before you even knew that you needed Him. God is merciful and compassionate and has forgiven the murderer in David, the whore in Solomon, the rebellion in Jonah, the persecutor of the church in Paul, the doubter in Thomas not to mention the sins in the twelve sons of Jacob and He is willing to forgive your sins too.

God is waiting for you to recognize your worth to Him and for you to honor that worth by believing in Him and His Son. The Christian must believe that they are worthy of forgiveness and work to submit to the will of God and to obey the commandments of Christ. It is important that your hope be true and your commitment to living the gospel be complete. You are not supposed to live in sin and just not care and you are not meant to give up on yourself because God does not want to give up on you.

You matter and the proof that you matter was given on the cross while Jesus gave His last breath for you. The Lord says that you matter so do not give up on you and do not give in to the devil.

“Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling; for it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure.” Philippians 2:12-13 (NKJV).

LOVE THAT CROSS!! PASTOR JOHN COLLINS

PASTOR JOHN COLLINS, JOHN COLLINS MINISTRIES: 7 SINS


Posted by Pastor John Collins:


“The Lord said to my Lord, ‘Sit at My right hand, Till I make Your enemies Your footstool.’” Psalm 110:1 (NKJV).

“These six things the Lord hates, Yes, seven are an abomination to Him: A proud look, A lying tongue, Hands that shed innocent blood, A heart that devises wicked plans, Feet that are swift in running to evil, A false witness who speaks lies, And one who sows discord among brethren.” Proverbs 6:16-19 (NKJV).

Hitler used propaganda to spread the hatred of the Jews by telling the German people that the Jews were responsible for the fall of Germany in WWI and for all of the domestic problems of the Germans, the KKK hate the blacks, Latinos and the Jews and stir up that hatred by using propaganda to spread their message, the extreme Islamists who desire terrorism use propaganda to further their cause by spreading fear to the infidel.

You can research the number of people killed in the wars of the world by the number of casualties. The list does not include the earliest battles in the history of the world and yet the numbers are in the hundreds of millions of people who have been killed in these confrontations. These numbers do not include gang wars, murders in general or attempted murders.

What fools people are!! The only enemy anyone needs to be concerned about is if they themselves are the enemy of God. God has used war to humble a people and to lift up a people. Israel is the perfect example of how God will protect those who worship Him in truth and of how God will punish those who do not. God will also allow the will of the people to decide their course which sometimes effects the whole of a nation and sometimes only effects the individual.

Sodom and Gomorrah became polluted and brought prayers and cries up to heaven which brought about the destruction of the five cities. God is not deaf nor is He blind but He is slow to anger and abundant in mercy. This country is on a path of self-destruction and is allowing the propaganda of today to dilute the resolve of the people to be godly people. We have comedians and politicians paving the way straight to hell and we have people laughing their way there.

We do not want the people of this nation to be the enemies of God nor any of the people of any other nation. We need to stop hating our brother and sister and stop allowing the devil to claim so many. We need to stand for the word of God and allow Jesus to be our truth. Christ is the way, the truth and the life, let us follow Him!

“For the ways of a man are before the eyes of the Lord, And He ponders all his paths.” Proverbs 5:21 (NKJV). 

LOVE THAT CROSS, PASTOR JOHN COLLINS
