Acts 4:10-12 AMPC
Let it be known and understood by all of you, and by the whole house of Israel, that in the name and through the power and authority of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, Whom you crucified, [but] Whom God raised from the dead, in Him and by means of Him this man is standing here before you well and sound in body. [11] This [Jesus] is the Stone which was despised and rejected by you, the builders, but which has become the Head of the corner [the Cornerstone]. [12] And there is salvation in and through no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by and in which we must be saved.
It's very common now to see sportsmen and women "take the knee" before the start of a match or event. We know that this is a sign of submission and adherence to a cause - in this case "Black Lives Matter". You may or may not agree with that initiative. Personally, I believe only One person deserves such submission and that is the Lord Jesus Christ.
We cannot and never should be a part of any multi-faith and one world religion.
Sadly, Prince Charles wants to be known as "defender of faiths" and not "defender of THE Faith" as our Queen is currently known.
By that very statement he shows that he has never had a face to face relationship with Jesus. He needs our prayers to have a real encounter with His Saviour.
Tolerance and freedom of religion is one thing, but to put Jesus on the same level as Buddha or Mohammed is a denial of our Christian belief.
If there was any other way to be saved, why would Jesus choose to leave Heaven to die a cruel death on the Cross?
The passage above makes it ever so clear that there is no one else who can save us.
Jesus is Supreme and will one day return, just as He promised and every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.
Even the likes of Richard Dawkins, who wears his atheism as a badge of honour, will be speechless and have nothing to say before Jesus, Yeshua, our Lord and Saviour.
We have the choice to bow the knee now, out of love and adoration, or cower out of fear and shame at the time of judgement.
Philippians 2:8-11 AMPC
And after He had appeared in human form, He abased and humbled Himself [still further] and carried His obedience to the extreme of death, even the death of the cross! [9] Therefore [because He stooped so low] God has highly exalted Him and has freely bestowed on Him the name that is above every name, [10] That in (at) the name of Jesus every knee should (must) bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, [11] And every tongue [frankly and openly] confess and acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Never let go of that central Truth that only Jesus can save you!
As the hymn says:
At the name of Jesus every knee shall bow, every tongue confess him King of glory now; 'tis the Father's pleasure we should call him Lord, who from the beginning was the mighty Word.
