YOU ARE NOT FAR FROM THE KINGDOM OF GOD
MARK 12
Mark 12:32-34 ESV
And the scribe said to him, "You are right,
Teacher. You have truly said that he is one,
and there is no other besides him.
[33] And to love him with all the heart
and with all the understanding
and with all the strength,
and to love one's neighbor as oneself,
is much more than all whole burnt
offerings and sacrifices."[34] And when
Jesus saw that he answered wisely, he said to him,
"You are not far from the kingdom of God."
And after that no one dared to ask him any more questions. 
CHURCH: DO WE HAVE THE FAITH OF THE CENTURIAN?

Matthew 8:5-13 LSB And when Jesus entered Capernaum, a centurion came to Him, pleading with Him,
[6] and saying, “Lord, my servant is lying paralyzed at home, fearfully tormented.” [7] And Jesus said to him, “I will come and heal him.”  [8] But the centurion said, “Lord, I am not good enough for You to come under my roof, but just say the word, and my servant will be healed. [9] For I also am a man under authority, with soldiers under me; and I say to this man, ‘Go!’ and he goes, and to another, ‘Come!’ and he comes, and to my slave, ‘Do this!’ and he does it.” [10] Now when Jesus heard this, He marveled and said to those who were following, “Truly I say to you, I have not found such great faith with anyone in Israel. [11] And I say to you that many will come from east and west, and recline at the table with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven; [12] but the sons of the kingdom will be cast out into the outer darkness; in that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.” [13] And Jesus said to the centurion, “Go; it shall be done for you as you have believed.” And the servant was healed that very moment.

Jude 1:3 KJV. Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.

Habakkuk 2:2 LSB Then Yahweh answered me and said, “Write down the vision And write it on tablets distinctly, That the one who reads it may run.

ATONEMENT: If you are His child, REMEMBER, He helps with what you can not undo, your bad choices in not seeking Him before choosing.   

Acts 2:21 ESV
And it shall come to pass that everyone who calls upon
the name of the Lord shall be saved. 

Acts 16:31 ESV

And they said, "Believe in the Lord Jesus,
and you will be saved, you and your household."

BENEFITS OF LOVE:  1 John 3:16-24 NKJV
By this we know love, because He laid down His life for us.
And we also ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.
[17] But whoever has this world's goods,
and sees his brother in need, and shuts up his heart from him,
how does the love of God abide in him?
[18] My little children, let us not love in word or in tongue,
but in deed and in truth.
[19] And by this we know that we are of the truth,
and shall assure our hearts before Him.
[20] For if our heart condemns us,
God is greater than our heart, and knows all things.
[21] Beloved, if our heart does not condemn us,
we have confidence toward God.
[22] And whatever we ask we receive from Him,
because we keep His commandments
and do those things that are pleasing in His sight.
[23] And this is His commandment:
that we should believe on the name of
His Son Jesus Christ and love one another,
as He gave us commandment.
[24] Now he who keeps His commandments
abides in Him, and He in him.
And by this we know that He abides in us,
by the Spirit whom He has given us.
