Lets find out if you are trusting in Christ or trusting in self, falsely believing you are trusting in Christ.

Listen...

God said...... If you take Jesus, I'll take you.

That's the Gospel.
Now....The technical part, the theology of it all, can sometimes get in the way of the simple truth of it.

God said, if you take my Son into your heart, believing, i'll make you my Son/Daughter forever = because you once did.

Being born again, is proof you have given God what He required, and He gave you what He promised.
Its done.

See how SIMPLE that is??
Just you, Jesus, and God.

= "the simplicity that is in Christ".

You take Jesus, = God takes you.
You BELIEVE, and God does the rest for you as it His Salvation you are being Given as a GIFT.
WE come to God as a sinner, ungodly, hell bound, and God rescues us from Hell, saves us forever, and gives us Eternal Life through Christ.
= The GIFT of Salvation.

Notice that God did it all?
You part is to let Him.
That is Real FAITH.

Another view...

Lets say there is no bible, no theology, no seminary, no denominations, and all there is on this earth, is just people who have sinned.
God says to us all..."I can't have a relationship with you, as my Spirit is Holy, and your spirit is not..
= Your Sin has separated us, and i am going to offer my Son for you, for your sin, so that by this eternal sin offering, i can have you as my own Son/Daughter....forever "

God says...>"will you take my Son into your heart, believing what i just told you ??
Will you let my Son Jesus die for all your sin, so that i can have you as my Son/Daughter, forever" ??
"Will you give me your TRUST ????

Reader.... = Have you said "yes"? Do you remember that day, moment?


That is : "The simplicity that is IN Christ"..

You take JESUS, and God takes you.
God offers His Son on The Cross, to eternally establish you as His Son/Daughter..
This is the Blood Atonement doing that for you.
This is the eternal redemption that is found only "in Christ".


Reader, what is your part in God's Salvation?
You are to receive it, by faith.
You are to receive it by BELIEVING That God will do what He said, keeping your eyes on Jesus who is made unto you, RIGHTEOUSNESS, Redemption... Eternal Life, Eternal Forgiveness, Sanctification, and Justification.

GOD told us, If you will take my Son, i will make you forever mine....forever.
Do you trust Him?

Reader.....Jesus proved this is all True when He rose from the Dead.
And He did.
Jesus is ALIVE !.

Listen...

""all that Call......all that Come....all that WILL.. I will make you Mine Forever, God says."" John 3:16
 
People are too attached to this world and the things in it.
Remove oneself more and more until you realize He is everything. We may not live to see His return but with faith and evidence you can know with your/our limited brains in part Who and What He is and how He works.
 
'The entrance of Thy words giveth light;
it giveth understanding unto the simple.'
(Psalm 119:130)

* John said concerning His gospel:-

'And many other signs truly did Jesus
in the presence of His disciples,
which are not written in this book:
But these are written,
.. that ye might believe
.... that Jesus is the Christ,
...... the Son of God;
........ and that believing ye might have life
.......... through His Name.'
(Joh 20:30-31)
