Jesus Does Not Abide By Invitation.

John Ch. 14-15 has Jesus’ instructions for required abiding in Him as He abides in Believers. However, there is no example there, or in any other part of Scripture, to either exemplify or instruct Believers to “Ask Jesus into their hearts.” Such a request for Jesus to do so is not part of The Gospel. Rather, Jesus abides in Believers as He chooses and upon His terms, and not as the Believer would request Him to for their own reasons. Jesus cannot be controlled in this manner, or in any other manner, not by even the most sincere and needy person.

Salvation by mere decision is one of the most impotent and deceptive little heresies promoted by false modern religion. “Asking Jesus into our hearts” does not successfully occur.
