Selfishness
The only thing necessary to change heaven
into hell -- if God were to allow it -- is
selfishness.
Selfishness is mankind's fundamental defect.
Selfish means: self-centered, self-serving,
self-important.
At the root of every problem is selfishness.
JAMES 3:16 TEV
16 Where there is jealousy and selfishness,
there is also disorder and every kind of evil.
Every selfish person is potentially your
enemy.
All sin is selfish. No one ever sins for
someone else -- we do it for selfish reasons.
Divine love is the opposite of selfishness.
Giving is the
opposite of acting selfishly.
We are products of a corrupt culture that
teaches selfishness, so it's not unusual for
us to think it's not so bad.
But you must die to selfishness -- or
self-destruct. However, you're unable to
change by yourself. You can't change the fruit
without changing the root. That's why you must
be born again! Only by receiving Jesus Christ
and letting Him change you inwardly can you
become a truly unselfish person.
No other "religion" teaches to put others
first, to love your enemies. Only Christianity
teaches you can be totally changed and become
a person with a new nature. There is no cure
apart from Jesus!
SAY THIS: Jesus, please cure me of being
selfish.

DO YOU ?
Do you ever feel
discouraged and dissatisfied? Do you ever have
feelings of unrest and fear of the future?
Does the thought of death and the hereafter
haunt you?
YOU ARE
Are you
looking for an unconditional love? Someone who
accepts you where you are and loves you no
matter what? Look no further than a personal
relationship with Jesus Christ.
Cast all your anxiety on him because he
cares for you.
1 Peter 5:7 NIV
Never let the enemy tell
you that you re worthless or insignificant.
You have value in the eyes of God so great
that it was worth dying for. You are a
blessing to the world.
Did you know God's
forgiveness and unconditional love is
available for anyone who asks?
If you haven't made the
decision to accept Christ as Lord
