    Miranda Rights :: By Murray Lorance

    Most of us have some knowledge of how crimes and infractions result in detainment, citations, even arrest and arraignment under charges of
    those alleged behaviors. In the U.S., controlled provisions are in
    place to protect you, and give you a fair trial to confirm or remove
    those charges. [Other countries have differing programs and rules.]

    You have the right to remain silent;

    Anything you say can be used against you in a court of law;

    You have the right to an attorney, and have him present during the interrogation;

    If you cannot afford a lawyer, one will be appointed to you free of charge;

    You can invoke your right to be silent before or during an interrogation,
    and if you do so, the interrogation must be halted;

    You can invoke your right to have an attorney present, and until he is
    present, the interrogation must be halted.

    SINNER'S RIGHTS - AKA "MARANATHA" RIGHTS
    Maranatha, an Aramaic word that means "The Lord is coming."

    Any sinful thing you have thought, said, or done, will be used against
    you to condemn you at the Great White Throne of Judgment. Those sins
    are already documented by the all-knowing God, and are not deniable;

    God has granted you, an already documented and proven sinner, certain
    rights in appeal;

    You, during your physical lifetime, have the appeal rights to the
    Advocate, Jesus Christ, the only begotten, and sinless Son of God the
    Father, and have His position as having already taken your punishment
    by dying on the Cross to stand in place for your standing death sentence;

    You cannot afford this Divine representative, so He has been granted to
    you free of charge upon your acceptance of His Salvation. Your case will
    be transferred to the BEMA Seat Judgment and Reward - of your works as a servant (slave, actually), not your sins. During your physical lifetime,
    you will have unlimited rights in access to His scriptural instructions, prayer, and Holy Spirit for guidance and comfort, doctrine, instruction, corrections, reproofs - along with mutual support of fellow true
    believers;

    You do have the free will during your lifetime, to waive and reject this
    single avenue of rescue and Salvation, and your rejection becomes final
    and inalterable at physical death. Sentence is then automatic - to be
    cast into the Lake of Fire - a forever existence of darkness and torment
    away from God's Divine presence. This judgment pathway is only halted
    upon your acceptance of the Salvation plan;

    "If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and believe in your heart
    that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved" (Romans 10:9).

    Take action now! "Today, if you hear His voice, harden not your hearts"
    (Psalms 95:7-8). Also, "you do not even know what will happen tomorrow.
    What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and
    then vanishes" (James 4:14).

    Additional Scripture guidance from His Holy Bible is provided on the
    reverse side, and can be confirmed by checking in your Bible.

    SOME CONFIRMING SCRIPTURES

    Romans 3:23 - "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God."

    Isaiah 59:2 - "But your iniquities have separated you from God; and your
    sins have hidden His face from you, so that He will not hear."

    Romans 6:23 - "For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God
    is eternal life in Jesus Christ our Lord."

    Romans 5:8 - "But God shows His love for us in that while we were sinners, Christ died for us."

    John 3:18 - "whoever does not believe stands condemned already."

    Romans 10:9 - "That if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and
    believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be
    saved".

    Acts 3:19 - "Repent therefore, and turn back, that your sins may be
    blotted out."

    John 14:6 - "Jesus answered, I am the way, the truth and the life. No
    one comes to the Father except through me."

    John 1:12 - "But to all who receive Him, who believed in His name, He
    gave the right to become children of God."

    Ephesians 2:8-9 - "For by grace you have been saved through faith. And
    this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works,
    so that no one may boast."

    Revelation 3:20 - "Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears
    My voice and opens the door, I will come in to that soul, and dine with
    them, and they with Me!"

    A simple, sincere prayer of surrender will commit your soul to Him, and
    His promises to you.

    "Heavenly Father, I have sinned against You, and I repent. I want
    forgiveness for all my sins. I believe that Jesus died on the cross for
    me and rose again. Father, I give You my life to do with as You wish. I
    want Jesus Christ to come into my life and my heart as Lord. I want to
    serve You. This I ask in Jesus' name. Amen."

    If you examine the Bible translation used at church, you will not find
    any other path of salvation in His Word - no other teaching or ritual
    replaces what God requires. You must seek restoration by His specific
    commands.

    Been a "Christian from forever"? Confirm it with Him in prayer today!

    (I wish pastors and priests everywhere would lead their congregations
    in a sinner's prayer of affirmation, so that any individual who has
    never offered that heart-belief prayer to God in Christ's name would
    be included - that no one would be stunned and dismayed at having been
    left behind!)
