Politically Correct? – The Saturday Morning Post by Pastor Ted Stahl

Good morning. Let me give you a quote: “I’d rather be correct than politically correct.”

That’s my quote. It’s possible that someone else may have made the same quote, but as far as I know, it’s original. Let me give you another quote, God said through His servant Jude, “And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.” (Jude vs 23).

Let me give you one more quote. Jesus said, “I AM the Way, the Truth, and the Life: no man cometh unto the Father but by Me.” (John 14:6).

Let me make this as clear as possible. If you are trusting any other way to get to heaven than the Lord Jesus Christ, you will die in your sins and find yourself in the torments of Hell and eventually be cast into the lake of fire. Only God can save you from eternal damnation. Hosea 13:4 tells us…

“Yet I am the LORD thy God from the land of Egypt, and thou shalt know no god but me: for there is no saviour beside me.”

There is only one Saviour, and He is not satan’s brother. There is only one Saviour, and He is not Buddah or that Harry Krishner guy. There is only one Saviour, and He is not Michael the archangel. There is only one God and Saviour, and His name is not Allah.

There is only one Saviour. There is only one God. He is the Creator of the universe. He is the one who loved us so much. He put on flesh and was born of a human virgin – who would later bear other children to her husband Joseph. Mary was born with an earthly mother and an earthly father: she was just like us: human. Her child was Almighty God wrapped up in human flesh. Many times during His ministry, the Lord Jesus Christ had told those he was healing, “Thy sins are forgiven thee.”

Only God can forgive sins. Here is logic: if Jesus was not God, He could not forgive sin. Not only that, He would have been telling a lie that would disqualify His perfection as our Lamb of God that taketh away the sins of the world. But He is God, and as God, is the only One who can forgive sin. Just realize you’re a sinner (Roman 3:10 & 23). Because you’re a sinner, you can’t save yourself, God had to provide a way to save you (Romans 5:8). And to receive His free gift of salvation, all you need do is call on the precious name of Jesus to save you (Romans 10:13), and He will.

Telling the truth is not politically correct; telling the truth is just correct. And you can quote me.

Peace. (John 3:16)
