Yes...it must be a personal experience. One that the church has mostly completely lost!
Biblical salvation is not based on personal experience or sensory perception.
It is belief that Jesus died on the Cross as a substitution for our sins and now we are reconciled to God thru Christ.
You are right...today’s churches have lost the correct message of biblical salvation...not all but a vast majority. That is why we, as biblical born again believers, are here to proclaim the true Gospel that churches today fail to deliver.
It is certainly not a popular message but we are not in a popularity contest....your eternal soul is what’s at stake and you do not want to throw it all away on an “experience.”
Get in the Word of God, Fabian, and hear what He has to say!!
