Throughout this blog, I will be quoting the Bible and then commenting on it. 
Many people ask me why I read the Bible, pray, go to church, follow after God, and share the Gospel with others.  That’s a good question!
 
John 20:31 says, “These are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name.”
 
Years ago, I understood that I was a sinner and needed Jesus Christ to come to earth and die for my sins and that through believing in him, I could have eternal life.  On the outside, I might have been morally acceptable…. However
 
1 Samuel 16:7 says, “Man looks on the outside, but God looks at the heart.”
Jeremiah 17:9 says, “The heart is deceitful and desperately wicked.”
 
With my many imperfections and sins, I realized that I couldn’t stand before a holy God on the day of judgment.  I repented of my sins and trusted in Jesus as my only means of salvation.
 
John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life.
John 14:6 Jesus said, “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life.  No man comes to the Father but through me.”

Throughout my blog postings, I plan to post helpful table tennis articles as well as truths that I have been learning from the Bible.  I hope that you read them and that God works in your heart.  I truly pray that you personally will repent of your sins and trust in Christ as your only means of getting to heaven.
Colossians 3:17 And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.
The Gospel influences every area of my life - personal, table tennis, family, hobbies.  With God's help, I want to live each moment for Him.
