“Then they said to the woman, “Now we believe, not because of what you said, for we ourselves have heard Him and we know that this is indeed the Christ, the Savior of the world.””

‭‭John‬ ‭4‬:‭42‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

It doesn’t matter what the minister said about Jesus being the Savior of the world nor what you read, even in the Bible, if you have not heard Him yourself and know He, Jesus, is the Savior of the world then consider your choice of knowing Him.  I grew up with a very angry God who was chasing me with a stick (the only stick Jesus has is the cross) and it has been a long journey finding the love of God.   I was stuck in fear of doing anything that could be wrong, and causing me to anger Him. I have a long list of scriptures that are written in the Bible on the love of God. The list is worn and tattered by me, and read by me over the years.  The most well-known scripture reference to a “two-edged sword” is found in Hebrews 4:12, which states: “For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing of soul and spirit, of joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart.”.  The “two-edged sword” represents the power of God’s word, which can penetrate deeply into a person’s life, exposing their thoughts and motives.“. I am a witness to this fact, and I know the power of God’s word, because my reading scriptures of the love of God propelled me out of fear into the love of God.  Long journey, but one I will never regret for traveling.
