Good Advice

Advice

An opinion about what could or should be done.  Advice can be good or bad.

Advise

Offer advice to; counsel.  To recommend, suggest.

Fact 

Something that has been verified.

God established the fact Jesus is his beloved Son and that He (God) is well pleased with Him (Jesus).  Matthew 3: 16, 17.  As man would say “you can take these facts to the bank”.

Here is a fact that Jesus said:  Matthew 7: 21 “Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.”

Now go to Mark 9: 7 “And there was a cloud that overshadowed them: and a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him.”

God has spoken when he told man to listen to his beloved Son which was very, very good advice.  Man has a bad habit of adding the word “but” to the equation.

A good example of this is found in John 14: 15 when Jesus states that if you love me keep my commandments.  Man takes these words of Jesus and states “but one does not have to be baptized to be saved; one must only believe”. 

Jesus said in Mark 16: 16 “He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.”

Man does not have the power to change the Word of GOD!
