1) When you reject Jesus,
2) You reject God. Thus,
​3) You chose the devil.
Regardless of what you call yourself, Christian, Jew, Muslim, religious person, or a non-religious person, if you reject (deny or refuse to obey) Jesus, you reject God. Thus, you chose the devil.

God undeniably created us. However, everyone is not His child.
God sectioned the people of the world into two groups: Children of God and children of the devil. Children of God belong to God, and children of the devil belong to the devil.
"Those who have been born into God's family do not practice sinning because God's life is in them. So they can't keep on sinning because they are children of God. So now we can tell who are children of God and who are children of the devil. Anyone who does not live righteously and does not love each other does not belong to God." -I John 3:9-10
IMPORTANT NOTICE: Once again, God gave the people of the United States a choice to become "children of God" or "children of the devil." After Covid-19, Millions of Deaths, Fires, Floods, Hurricanes, and Tornadoes, the majority still chose "children of the devil," which includes lies, hatred, division, jealousy, greed, judgment, hypocrisy, misogyny, control, cultism, narcissism, self-proclaimed race superiority, racism, fear, nationalism, and hatemongering.
​"God Bless America" does not move or impress God. "The people's thoughts are not God's thoughts, neither are their ways God's ways." God is not interested in the people's politics, plans, or religions. The people foolishly took God's mercy, grace, love, and silence as God's approval, not realizing that God is slow to anger. So, to be clear and eliminate the excuse of "But nobody told us;" today God is actively gathering the last children of His family, and those attempting to stand in His way angers God. Therefore, regardless of what you call yourself, Christian, Jew, Muslim, a religious person, or a non-religious person, if you are a part of [whether in silence or vocal] lies, hatred, division, jealousy, greed, judgment, hypocrisy, misogyny, control, cultism, narcissism, self-proclaimed race superiority, racism, fear, nationalism, and hatemongering, you are a child of the devil. As children of the devil, you do not belong to God. Therefore, since "you are the children of your father the devil, and you love to do the evil things he does," you will follow your beloved father into hell.

​God DOES NOT send Christians, Jews, Muslims, religious people, or a non-religious people to hell. God gives Christians, Jews, Muslims, religious people, and a non-religious people a choice: Jesus or hell.
Vance Fitzgerald of The New Joshua Generation authored How to Accept Jesus to eliminate the excuse of "BUT JESUS! WAIT! NOBODY TOLD US!"

How to Accept Jesus

​Who is Jesus?

First and foremost, Jesus is not associated with any religions; thus, Jesus is not Christian. Jesus Christ does not mean Jesus is a Christian. Also, Christ is not Jesus' first or last name. Christ means "Anointed One." Furthermore, Jesus never called the people Christians; the people first labeled themselves "Christianos," meaning "follower of Christ." Therefore, Jesus is not Evangelical, Baptist, Pentecostal, Methodist, Catholic, or Protestant. 
​NOTICE: The term "Christian" is found only 3 times in the Bible. While the term "Disciple" appears 261 times in the Bible, and "Believe" is mentioned more than 240 times.
Furthermore, Jesus is not white. Jesus is not black. Jesus is not associated with politics or political cultism; therefore, He is not a Republican or a Democrat. Jesus is not a lotto Jesus (poor people's prosperity gospel). Jesus did not die on the cross to save a select group of people (Christians); He died on the cross to save the world!
​Jesus is a spirit. Jesus is God and became man because a spirit is illegal on earth without a body. Once you TRULY accept the Spirit of Jesus as Lord and Savior, you do not become a part of a religion such as Christianity; you become a believer in Jesus. After you become a believer, your purpose is to REPRESENT (reap the harvest of souls) Jesus on earth, not to divide (e.g., hate, abortion, politics, border, Christian nationalism) the harvest of souls. Simply put, accepting Jesus as Lord and Savior or being saved from sin means the Spirit of Jesus now lives within you; thus, you have become an Active New Person to do good works, "which God prepared in advance for us [you] to do." "For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do." (Eph. 2:10).
​
What is Salvation?
Salvation is a gift from God to be revealed to the world by those who accept Jesus as Lord and Savior. You cannot earn Salvation or work to receive it. However, the "good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do," begin once you receive Salvation.

Many Christians claimed to have accepted Jesus as Lord and Savior; however, because it was just a random thing or something to do in the heat (fear of going to hell) of the moment, they cannot remember the date. Also, many Christians told us they are saved and going to Heaven simply because they grew up in a Christian household. On the other hand, many people who never claimed to have accepted Jesus told us that they refused to accept Jesus because Christians said to them that Jesus is Christian. They observed Christians' actions and speech at work, on television, in their communities, in their families, and in politics and concluded, "If this is Jesus, I don't want him!"

The day a person is "born again" or accepts Jesus as Lord and Savior is one of the most significant days in their life next to their chronological birthday. The day you accept Jesus as Lord and Savior becomes your spiritual birthday. Hence, this is the day you become an Ambassador representing Jesus, the Son of God, on Earth. However, unfortunately, because many people assume that believing in Jesus, the Son of God, is just a random thing or something to do in the heat (fear of going to hell) of the moment, multitudes will be refused entrance into Heaven's gates.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: If you claimed to have accepted Jesus as Lord and Savior, yet you do not know your spiritual birthdate but know your chronological birthdate, question: Did you accept Jesus or Christianity (religion)?

Why accept Jesus:
When human Jesus (a spirit is illegal on earth without a body) died and shed His blood on the cross, He allowed everyone the opportunity not to perish but to have eternal life. So once you accept Jesus as Lord and Savior, you are responsible for bringing this message to light by sharing this Good News with those who do not know Jesus. Therefore, accepting Jesus as Lord and Savior means fulfilling on earth what Jesus finished on the cross.
"Just as You commissioned and sent Me into the world, I also have commissioned and sent them (believers) into the world." -John 17:18
"I tell you the truth, anyone who believes in me will do the same works I have done, and even greater works because I am going to be with the Father. You can ask for anything in my name, and I will do it so the Son can bring glory to the Father. Ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it! If you love me, obey my commandments." -John 14:12-15
Again, Jesus finished ("It is Finished" -John 19:30) when He died and shed His blood on the cross. He allowed everyone the opportunity not to perish but to have eternal life. Therefore, you do not accept Jesus as Lord and Savior to go to Heaven; you accept Jesus to do "even greater works" than He did. Simply put, you accept Jesus as Lord and Savior for Earth. You accept Jesus as Lord and Savior to go and tell the world (starting with your neighbor) the Good News of Salvation.
Again, you do not accept Jesus as Lord and Savior to go to Heaven; Heaven is simply the reward for obedience, just like hell is the reward for disobedience. You accept Jesus as Lord and Savior for Earth.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: There is no retirement once you accept Jesus. Christians retire. Believers endure to the end.

How to accept Jesus:
1) "God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever BELIEVES in Him shall not perish but have eternal life." -John 3:16
"Anyone who BELIEVES in God's Son has eternal life. Anyone who doesn't obey the Son will never experience eternal life but remains under God's angry judgment." -John 3:36
Many have said, "I accept Jesus as Lord and Savior," but few have BELIEVED it. Therefore: "The seed that fell on the footpath represents those who hear the message about the Kingdom and don't understand it. Then the evil one comes and snatches away the seed that was planted in their hearts." -Matthew 13:19

2) What does it mean to believe in Jesus? Believing in Jesus is the key to accepting Jesus. Believing in Jesus can be defined with two words: TRUST JESUS. Most Christians think that simply saying, "I accept Jesus as Lord and Savior," while standing before the preacher, is the beginning and the end of accepting Jesus in one's life. No. You must genuinely believe: Are you willing to trust Jesus so profoundly that you will give your entire (whole, complete) life to Him, which means walking with Him wherever He leads you? Moreover, are you willing to trust Jesus regardless of how complex or uncertain life gets? Furthermore, are you ready to trust Jesus when you do not understand where he is leading you? Most importantly, are you willing to trust that Jesus is in control and has a divine purpose for your life, regardless of the surrounding circumstances? Bottom line: Are you willing to obey Jesus? "Anyone who believes in God's Son has eternal life. Anyone who doesn't obey the Son will never experience eternal life but remains under God's angry judgment." -John 3:36
​IMPORTANT NOTICE: Believing in Jesus (i.e., Obeying Jesus, Trusting Jesus) is how you receive the abundant, overflowing life He promised you in John 10:10: "The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and abundance [to the full, till it overflows]." Believing in Jesus is the key to Mark 11:23: "Truly I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, 'Go, throw yourself into the sea,' and does not doubt in their heart but believes that what they say will happen, it will be done for them."

3) Who is Jesus? Jesus is God and became man because a spirit is illegal on earth without a body.
"In the beginning [before all time] was the Word (Christ), and the Word was with God, and the Word was God Himself." -John 1:1
"So the Word became human and made his home among us. He was full of unfailing love and faithfulness. And we have seen his glory, the glory of the Father's one and only Son. -John 1:14

4) Jesus died on the cross for every human. 
"Christ suffered for our sins once and for all time. He never sinned but died for sinners to bring you safely home to God. He suffered physical death, but he was raised to life in the Spirit." -1 Peter 3:18

5) After Jesus' death, He was resurrected from the dead.
"He was handed over to die because of our sins, and he was raised to life to make us right with God." -Romans 4:25

6) If a man or woman rejects Jesus, they reject God.
God never intended for humans to enter hell. Hell was "prepared for the devil and his angels" (Matthew 25:41). However, if a man or woman REJECTS JESUS (refuses to obey Him), THEY REJECT GOD. Therefore, the man or woman (Christians included) chooses the devil. Since the man or woman chose the devil, he or she decided to FOLLOW the devil and his human disciples into the "eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels." 
​IMPORTANT NOTICE: God does not send any man or woman to hell. Instead, God gives men and women a choice of whether or not to go to hell.

Before you proceed any further, STOP.
​IMPORTANT NOTICE: "I am a Christian" is not the key to entering Heaven; Only children of God will enter Heaven!

7) Many Christians are going to hell because they accepted Christianity (man's interpretation of Jesus), not the real Jesus.
"Those who have been born into God's family do not practice sinning because God's life is in them. So they can't keep on sinning because they are children of God. So now we can tell who are children of God and who are children of the devil. Anyone who does not live righteously and does not love each other does not belong to God." -I John 3:9-10
IMPORTANT NOTICE: The devil's weapons are division and hate. Division and hate are rooted deeply among religious people, especially Christians. Therefore, ANYONE who refuses to walk with Jesus (live righteously), thereby carrying division and hatred, is not a child of God, but a child of the devil regardless of what they call themselves.
WARNING: ANYONE (i.e., Evangelical, Baptist, Pentecostal, Catholic, Methodist, Republican, Democrat) who does not live righteously and does not love each other DOES NOT belong to God! Children of the devil, regardless of what they call themselves, are on a straight express highway to hell.

8) "If you hate each other, you are murderers, and we know murderers do not have eternal life." -1 John 3:15
The devil sends his narcissistic human disciples with weapons of prejudice (bigotry) for one purpose only: to get you to hate. Therefore, regardless of how someone acts towards you or what someone says or does to you, do not allow them to bring you down to their level to hate them.
Many people who called themselves Christians have died with hatred (e.g., self-proclaimed race superiority, division, segregation, jealousy, and judgment of others) in their hearts. They ignorantly believed, even while on their deathbed, that "Heaven is my reward." God does not wipe a person's life clean simply because they die. Therefore, when you take your last breath, the hatred you carried in your heart toward another person, whether in silence ("Hiding hatred makes you a liar; slandering others makes you a fool." -Proverbs 10:18) or vocal, follows you. So, to be clear and eliminate the excuse of "But nobody told me!" GOD DOES NOT ALLOW HATRED, SELF-PROCLAIMED RACE SUPERIORITY, DIVISION, SEGREGATION, JEALOUSY, OR JUDGMENT OF OTHERS TO ENTER INTO HIS KINGDOM OF HEAVEN. ONLY CHILDREN OF GOD WILL ENTER HEAVEN.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: Hell will be jam-packed with the devil's children who today think that "Heaven is my reward!"

9) Forgiveness is the Law of the Kingdom of God.
Before God forgives your sins, YOU MUST "first forgive anyone you hold a grudge against."
"But when you are praying, first forgive anyone you are holding a grudge against, so that your Father in heaven will forgive your sins, too." -Mark 11:25
"For if you forgive others when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you refuse to forgive others, your Father will not forgive your sins." -Matthew 6:14-15
One of the top reasons why people's prayers remain unanswered is unforgiveness. Accepting Jesus as Lord and Savior requires a yes answer to your prayer. Jesus DOES NOT answer the prayers of those who refuse to forgive.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: Accepting Jesus as Lord and Savior is more rewarding than getting even with someone you hold a grudge against.

If you love and have forgiven everyone, proceed.
​HOWEVER, IF YOU REFUSE TO LOVE AND FORGIVE, PROCEEDING FURTHER IS POINTLESS BECAUSE GOD WILL NOT FORGIVE YOU.

10) Grace DOES NOT cover sin!
"God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can't take credit for this; it is a gift from God." -Ephesians 2:8
God saves by His grace; however, grace does not cover sin. Christians are told from the pulpit grace covers sin, so they believe that God's grace covers sin. Being told by "ungodly people" that grace covers sin is one of the reasons why Christians continuously sin without fear of consequences. Be forewarned: Sin has consequences. 
​"Some ungodly people have wormed their way into your churches, saying that God's marvelous grace allows us to live immoral lives. The condemnation of such people was recorded long ago, for they have denied our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ." -Jude 1:4 
"God's law was given so all people could see how sinful they were. But as people sinned more and more, God's wonderful grace became more abundant" -Romans 5:20
"Well then, since God's grace has set us free from the law, does that mean we can go on sinning? Of course not!" -Romans 6:15 
IMPORTANT NOTICE: God's grace DOES NOT cover sin. God's grace ELIMINATES the excuse to sin. As people sinned more and more, God's extraordinary grace became MORE abundant (even greater or richer supply) to RESIST the temptations of sin. Consequently, God eliminated people's excuses for sin when He gave people the authority or power to RESIST the desires of sin. 
"When people keep on sinning, it shows that they belong to the devil, who has been sinning since the beginning. The Son of God came to destroy the works of the devil." -I John 3:8

11) We are "created in Christ Jesus to do good works."
Although works cannot save a person, we are "created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do."
Christians love to pray for miracles and sow tithes and offerings in the collection plate because these religious traditions require little work. "Works" is a curse word in the Christian church.

​"For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast." -Ephesians 2:8–9
Preachers realize Christians love to hear "Gift from God," "Pray, God will do it," and "Just have faith, no works required." So they only read Ephesians 2:8-9 to keep their members stupid, returning to the church pews every Sunday hoping God will do what He has already given them the power to do. Most preachers intentionally overlook the following verse: Ephesians 2:10, "For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do."
Through the pulpit, most Christians believe Salvation only involves "Yes, I accept Jesus" while standing before the preacher, praying for money and healing miracles, occasionally attending church, paying offerings and tithes, committing unlimited sins because God forgives sins, and flying off to Heaven to meet Jesus to receive a reward, simply because they said, "Yes, I accept Jesus." If someone mentions "Works" (e.g., discipleship), preachers revert to "You cannot earn salvation by works; it is a gift!"
Truthfully, most preachers realize that Christians are lazy and self-centered, and Christians only say, "Yes, I accept Jesus," because they fear going to hell. So, just like today's narcissistic politicians, preachers give the self-centered people "what their itching ears want to hear" to keep them returning, hemorrhaging credit cards, checks, and cash.

"For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do." -Ephesians 2:10
Works cannot save us, but we are born again; therefore, we are "created in Christ Jesus to do good works." God calls us His handiwork, masterpiece, artistry, and creation. Thus, we have a specific purpose. We are NOT created in Christ Jesus to pray for miracles and commit unlimited sins; we are "created in Christ Jesus to do good works." Therefore, we are created in Christ Jesus to represent Him on earth. God's gift of Salvation spiritually transforms, renews, and empowers humans for "Good Works." Works cannot earn God's gift of Salvation, but "Good Works" (e.g., discipleship) result from a person receiving Salvation.

Receiving Salvation by grace through faith means something other than lazily waiting for Jesus to return. Being saved from sin or receiving Salvation means you are now an Active New Person. As a result of accepting Jesus as Lord and Savior, you live with and walk with Jesus on earth "to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do."
​BOTTOM-LINE: Salvation is a gift from God to be revealed to the world by those who accept Jesus as Lord and Savior. Heaven is only a reward resulting from Salvation. You cannot earn Salvation or work to receive it. However, the "Good Works" that "God prepared in advance for us [you] to do" begin once you receive Salvation. 

​12) Accepting Jesus as Lord and Savior means more than repeating a few words while standing before the preacher or praying "Lord! Lord!" when you need Jesus.
Jesus is a spirit, and a spirit is illegal on earth without a body. Accepting Jesus as Lord and Savior means Jesus becomes a spirit living within you; thus, you become Jesus' mouth and feet on earth. Do not be misled by "get rich quick" or lotto Jesus ("prosperity gospel") preachers. You do not accept Jesus as your "Bless me" Santa Claus. You accept Jesus as Lord and Savior to DO the Father's will (God's will) on earth.
"For this is My Father's will and purpose, that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him [as Lord and Savior] will have eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day." -John 6:40
"Not everyone who calls out to me, 'Lord! Lord!' will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Only those who actually do the will of my Father in Heaven will enter." -Matthew 7:21
How will the world know Jesus, believe in Him as Lord and Savior, and know they can have eternal life unless you openly represent Jesus?
"I tell you the truth, anyone who believes in me will do the same works I have done, and even greater works because I am going to be with the Father. You can ask for anything in my name, and I will do it so the Son can bring glory to the Father. Ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it! If you love me, obey my commandments." -John 14:12-15
"You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you to GO and bear fruit - fruit that will last. Then the Father will give you whatever you ask in my name." -John 15:16
​"When you produce much fruit, you are my true disciples. This brings great glory to my Father." -John 15:8
IMPORTANT NOTICE: Accepting Jesus as Lord and Savior allows the world to see Jesus through you! Therefore, a 180-degree turn from sin and "obey my commandments" are essential.

13) Accepting Jesus as Lord and Savior supply you with abundant and satisfying life (whole life): "The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life, and have it in abundance [to the full, till it overflows]" (John 10:10). However, you must genuinely believe Romans 10:9-10: "If you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is by believing in your heart that you are made right with God and by openly declaring your faith that you are saved." "FOR IT IS BY BELIEVING IN YOUR HEART THAT YOU ARE MADE RIGHT WITH GOD." You must not only openly declare Jesus is Lord, but you must genuinely believe in your heart.
Many have said, "I accept Jesus as Lord and Savior," but few have believed it. Therefore: "The seed that fell on the footpath represents those who hear the message about the Kingdom and don't understand it. Then the evil one comes and snatches away the seed that was planted in their hearts." -Matthew 13:19
"Anyone who does not remain in me is thrown away like a useless branch and withers. Such branches are gathered into a pile to be burned." -John 15:6

14) Believers accepted Jesus. Christians accepted Christianity.
Most Christians ignorantly took narcissistic man's twisted interpretations of Jesus as accepting Jesus as Lord and Savior. Therefore, most Christians never accepted Jesus as Lord and Savior; they accepted man's interpretation of Jesus. Christianity is a religion of division, narcissism, prayer with no work required, faith with no work required, planting miracle money seeds when the harvest is plentiful, committing unlimited sins because God forgives sin, white conservative Jesus, hatred, lies, segregation, jealousy, judgment of others, hypocrisy, misogyny, abortion, control, power, profit, and evil in Jesus' name. Christianity is simply man's narcissistic plans, with Jesus' name stamped with an embossed seal to make it look authentic. Therefore, multitudes of people will be overly shocked on Judgment Day when Jesus says: "I will have nothing to do with you! Get out of my sight, you evil people!" (Matthew 7:23).
Accepting Jesus as Lord and Savior means you become an Ambassador representing Jesus, the Son of God on earth.
Accepting Jesus as Lord and Savior means you become true "Doers of the Word," not followers of divisive, narcissistic men.
Therefore, accepting Jesus as Lord and Savior does not mean becoming a Christian (follower). Accepting Jesus as Lord and Savior means you are a Believer ("Doer of the Word").
IMPORTANT NOTICE: If you have not introduced Jesus to your neighbor, you may be a Christian, but you don't know Jesus.

15) Accepting Jesus as Lord and Savior requires you to repent. 
"Now repent of your sins and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped away." -Acts 3:19 
"I openly proclaimed first to those at Damascus, then at Jerusalem and throughout the region of Judea, and even to the Gentiles, that they should repent [change their inner self—their old way of thinking] and turn to God, doing deeds and living lives which are consistent with repentance." -Acts 26:20
Repentance is NOT simply saying, "I repent." Repentance is changing your inner self—your old thinking, turning to God, doing good works, and living life consistent with repentance. BOTTOM-LINE: Repentance is turning around (180 degrees) from sin.

16) THIS PART IS CRUCIAL: Although Jesus chose and appointed you, YOU MUST ASK JESUS TO SAVE YOU.
While we witness to people, many of them say, "We don't know how to pray!" We respond by saying that God is your manufacturer. God created you. Therefore, He knows you inside and out. You do not have to B.S. Jesus with sanctimonious church prayers. Number one, Jesus ignores sanctimonious prayers! Talk to Jesus, believing He knows you because He does know you better than you know yourself.
Romans 10:9-10 says, "If you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is by believing in your heart that you are made right with God and by openly declaring your faith that you are saved."
Again, "For it is by believing in your heart that you are made right with God and by openly declaring your faith that you are saved."
The following is a guideline for asking Jesus to become the Lord and Savior of your life:
Dear Lord Jesus, I truly believe You are God's Son. I truly believe that You died on the cross for my sins. I truly believe that You rose from the grave. I want to receive You as Lord and Savior. I realize that I am a sinner, and I need forgiveness. So, I love everyone and have forgiven everyone who has wronged me in the past. I ask for forgiveness. I fully repent of my sins and turn away from them. I invite You to come into my heart and life. I will openly declare that You are Lord and Savior. I will trust and walk with You as Lord and Savior. AMEN.
