To those on bended knees before God

Thank you for your prayers in Jesus Christ,
    Today we completed lesson 4. Man's Response: Believe in Jesus Christ. Then we did lesson 5. God's Guarantee: Eternal life to those who believe in Jesus Christ.
Please note if I've not said it already these lesson are based directly from some notes by my Bible school professor. Dr. Richard Seymour.
At the end of lesson 5 I asked again if there was questions about the lesson. My Spanish teacher Frank asked something like these words. How is a sinner changed to have
the righteousness of God, or to be righteous like God. I illustrated that it is Jesus blood. Let me explain the illustration in detail.
    When we believe in Jesus Christ God no longer sees are sins but He sees the blood of Jesus Christ. Before we believe we are seen as sinners by God. Jesus Christ died on
the cross for our sins his payment for our sins is available to be received. It is a free gift waiting to be received. How do we receive it? By believing in Jesus Christ, He is God,
by believing He died on the cross for our sins, was buried, and rose again from the dead proving He is God. Over and over throughout the Bible salvation is by belief! Not
a factual belief in the fact of Jesus being a man, dying on the cross. But the trusting belief that Jesus died on the cross in our place, that we are trusting in HIM ALONE not
in our works! Works are great things but they can never gain us entrance into heaven! They are not part of salvation! John 3:16; John 3:18; John 3:36; John 6:47 and many more .verses. . .
    We had talked about this through the lessons. Frank said the lessons were understandable he said also because he went through them 2 times. (He helped me translate them as well, and then
practice teach them) Please pray He will not only truly understand but that he will believe in Jesus Christ ALONE for salvation. What about you? What do you trust in for getting to heaven? Before you answer make sure you know what GOD requires, remember He requires perfection the perfection of God, how do we get that? Open up your Bible Galatians 2:16; Romans 4:2-5; Romans 10:3,4
    I hope many more opportunities will come to share with Frank, and many more here. Thank you for your prayers dear believers in Jesus Christ. The prayer of a righteous man James 5:16 avails much.
But remember it is the prayer of a righteous man that avails much, there is only one way to be righteous in God's eyes! Romans 4:3 For what does the Scripture say? "ABRAHAM BELIEVED GOD, AND IT WAS ACCOUNTED TO HIM FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS."
    In Jesus Christ the Saviour,
       Jonathan
