Losing Religion to Find Salvation

[dan p]

 The  story is told about a  man that fell into a  pit and could't get himself out .

 A philosopher came along and  reasoned with him why there are  pits in our  world .

A Psychologist came  by and  researched the  procedures by which he landed in the pit , and tried to help him to accept his  pit .

A religious man came by and told him to keep trying to pull himself up by his bootstraps to keep working at getting  out that pit .

A  Christian  scientist came along and  said ,  You only  think you"re  in a  pit .

A televangelist came by to raise 50  million dollars to  minister to his  needs and told him that  his lack of  faith led him to be in this pit .

A politician came by and  volunteered to start a  National  Pit  Elimination  Program

A county inspector said , Did  you have a  permit for that pit ?

An  optimist said  " Things could be  worse .

A pessimist claimed ,  Things are  gonna get much  worse .

But  Jesus  Christ came and   He  lifted him out of his pit .

Outside of  Christ , each of us are in a  PIT  we can't get ourselves out of , a  PIT  of  sin , death  , condemnation and  judgment  .

We are without strength and  unable to save  ourselves , and we each need  a  Savior .

Religion doesn't save anyone .

Only  Christ  saves , Rom 10: 9 and Paul  says , That in  ME  , FIRST / PROTOS  Christ  Jesus might show forth all  longsuffering for a  PATTERN of the ones coming to believe on HIM unto everlasting life .

This is a message by   Pastor  Kevin  sadler , of  BBS .
