This past week the Governor from Alabama spoke in a southern Baptist church and said that unless you are born again in Jesus Christ you are not my brother or sister, which created a fire-storm across this country.

But scripture is very clear, until you receive Jesus Christ as your own personal Savior, you are not in the family of God.

The problem is in our country, everyone thinks their a Christian, but most reject Jesus Christ as the ONLY way in which someone can enter heaven.  They think theres many ways there and that being a good person or keeping the ten commandments, or being moral will allow you entrance.

According to Romans chapter 8,  those who accept Christ as their personal Savior, that we are adopted into the family of God where we now call him Abba Father.  and his Spirit bears witness to our spirit that we are his children, which makes us brothers and sisters.

Anyone who has not done that are not in the family of God, even Jesus himself said In John 8, if you haven’t received him then you are of your father the devil, so your in his family, not God the Fathers family.

So what the Governor said was true, but todays people don’t want to hear they’re sinners, who need a Savior and are not brothers and sisters to everyone.

Even Glen Beck got on this bandwagon that we’re all brothers and sisters, sorry but thats not what scripture teaches as I have shown you.

What bothers me though, is that the governor apologized for telling the truth,  the bible says that  when we proclaim the gospel that we will be persecuted and hated for righteousness sake. If your going to tell the truth, don’t apologize to the world, stand by it, otherwise the world thinks they are right and then conviction for a Savior leaves.

I want everyone to become my brothers and sisters, but it can only happen one way and thats by accepting the only way into Gods family and that is in Jesus.
