Matthew 13:57
King James Version
57 And they were offended in him.
But Jesus said unto them,
A prophet is not without honour,
save in his own country,
and in his own house.
JESUS came to the world to save us from our sins.
He conquered death, and the devil.
But many people don't believe in Him.
They don't believe He is the SON of GOD.
What happens when they don't?
Here's what Scripture says:
Matthew 13:58
King James Version
58 And he did not many mighty works there
because of their unbelief.
Mark 16:16
King James Version
16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved;
but he that believeth not shall be damned.
John 3:16
King James Version
16 For God so loved the world,
that he gave his only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in him should not perish,
but have everlasting life.
John 3:18-19
King James Version
18 He that believeth on him is not condemned:
but he that believeth not is condemned already,
because he hath not believed in the name
of the only begotten Son of God.
19 And this is the condemnation,
that light is come into the world,
and men loved darkness rather than light,
because their deeds were evil.
John 8:24
King James Version
24 I said therefore unto you,
that ye shall die in your sins:
for if ye believe not that I am he,
ye shall die in your sins.
2 Thessalonians 2:10-12
King James Version
10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness
in them that perish;
because they received not the love of the truth,
that they might be saved.
11 And for this cause
God shall send them strong delusion,
that they should believe a lie:
12 That they all might be damned
who believed not the truth,
but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
James 1:6-8
King James Version
6 But let him ask in faith,
nothing wavering.
For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea
driven with the wind and tossed.
7 For let not that man think
that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.
8 A double minded man is unstable
in all his ways.
Revelation 21:8
King James Version
8 But the fearful, and unbelieving,
and the abominable, and murderers,
and whoremongers, and sorcerers,
and idolaters, and all liars,
shall have their part in the lake
which burneth with fire and brimstone:
which is the second death.
Even the LORD's disciples had a problem with unbelief.
Matthew 17:14-21
King James Version
14 And when they were come to the multitude,
there came to him a certain man,
kneeling down to him, and saying,
15 Lord,
have mercy on my son:
for he is lunatick,
and sore vexed:
for ofttimes he falleth into the fire,
and oft into the water.
16 And I brought him to thy disciples,
and they could not cure him.
17 Then Jesus answered and said,
O faithless and perverse generation,
how long shall I be with you?
how long shall I suffer you?
bring him hither to me.
18 And Jesus rebuked the devil;
and he departed out of him:
and the child was cured from that very hour.
19 Then came the disciples to Jesus apart,
and said,
Why could not we cast him out?
20 And Jesus said unto them,
Because of your unbelief:
for verily I say unto you,
If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed,
ye shall say unto this mountain,
Remove hence to yonder place;
and it shall remove;
and nothing shall be impossible unto you.
21 Howbeit this kind goeth not out
but by prayer and fasting.
We are not judged for our unbelief.
But something else will.
JESUS tells us so.
John 12:47-50
King James Version
47 And if any man hear my words,
and believe not,
I judge him not:
for I came not to judge the world,
but to save the world.
48 He that rejecteth me,
and receiveth not my words,
hath one that judgeth him:
the word that I have spoken,
the same shall judge him in the last day.
49 For I have not spoken of myself;
but the Father which sent me,
he gave me a commandment,
what I should say,
and what I should speak.
50 And I know that his commandment is life everlasting:
whatsoever I speak therefore,
even as the Father said unto me,
so I speak.
