Suppose a fireman “I know the way to escape the fire. Trust in me, and you will be saved from the fire. Follow me.”

Who is saved?

The person who obeys the fireman, or the person who says, “I don’t need to leave the burning building. All I need to do is trust the fireman and be saved. If I left, I would be saving myself. So I’m going to sit here.”

Yes, Jesus said he that believes in Him is saved. He also said that if we believe in Him, we will do what He commands of us. He also said “Unless you eat of the flesh of the Son of Man and drink of His blood, you shall not have life within you.” And y’all’re sitting in the middle of the fire saying, “he just means it figuratively.”

And as Christians, we have already done that...

“Unless you eat of the flesh of the Son of Man and drink of His blood, you shall not have life within you.” And y’all’re sitting in the middle of the fire saying, “he just means it figuratively.”

Jesus did not mean it figuratively...He meant is spiritually...That apparently is lost on you guys...

We did eat of his flesh and drank his blood...Plus, we drank the water from the well...We eat his words constantly and they are sweeter than honey, praise God...

The fire can not touch us...
