Talent For A Mission, Chapter Two (Part One)–My Personal “Why”

This next post from Talent For A Mission (copyright 2023 Deborah Lagarde) is from Chapter Two and goes into some detail as to why I chose to accept Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior–and Redeemer. Why redeemer? Because as with all humans beginning with Adam and Eve having been tempted by “the serpent” aka Satan to commit sin, that sin or sins–and remember, all humans fall short of the glory of God except for Christ as human–provide a “debt” so-to-speak that must be repented, then pardoned or paid-in-kind in order to reach Heaven to be with God. When Christ shed blood on the cross as a sacrifice, it was to REDEEM all sins of all people who repented of their sins and accepted Christ as Redeemer along with Savior. And, in this part one of Chapter Two, I explain some of the sins I did that had to be redeemed through repentance. And these weren’t typical sins, either, but serious ones in my opinion! But here is the weird aspect of this–while doing these sins, God STILL had my back and saved me from some possible death scenarios! And one wonders why I accepted Christ? Hmmm…

Below is the first part of Chapter Two, which is rather long and will be posted in three parts over November.

Talent For A Mission, Chapter One (Part Two)…The Why, Continued

I am posting the rest of Chapter One of Talent For A Mission today, Saturday, October 28, 2023 because my area will experience sudden winter-snow-freezing weather the last three days of October, and the power or the internet may go out. Further, it seems that the so-called “end times” are approaching faster and faster what with the Israel-Hamas-Middle East war and rumors of wars…a saying within the Bible Book of Revelation and also Gospels. Thus perhaps–folks, I do not trust the media, legacy or alternative anymore–the time is fast approaching where true believers on Christ must decide to ‘make disciples of all nations.’ And I must get this treatise or guide or whatever completed soon and then post on this site.

So, below is the rest of Chapter One:

Talent For A Mission, Chapter One (Part One)…The Why

I am only providing, in this post, “the why” for this “guide” or “manual” as to why I think it might be a good idea for authors who claim to believe on Jesus Christ to use their writing “talent” to try to convince others of their own free will to repent of whatever sins and accept Christ as Lord and Savior–to be “born again.” That is, having been born of water (in the flesh), to be born “again” in the Spirit. And now is the time for me to present this “guide,” for it seems more and more as if the world has gone crazy, especially now with wars and rumors of wars in the Middle East. To the point where many preachers are now claiming we are either in “the end times” or fast approaching “the end times.”

Maybe. Maybe not. But whether we are coming close to “the end times” or not, it is still a good idea to follow what Christ told His Apostles upon His resurrection return (before going up to Heaven): to make Disciples of all nations (as said in Matthew 28:19–“Go ye therefore and teach all nations…”). A “mission of God” so-to-speak. From Chapter One of Talent For A Mission, copyright © 2023 by Deborah Lagarde:
