If you were in a court of law trying to prove you have salvation, what evidence could you present to prove your case? Peter tells us, “But sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts, always being ready to make a defense to everyone who asks you to give an account for the hope that is in you” (1Pet. 3:15). Every saved individual can and must be able to give evidence of their salvation.

What many people try to present as evidence of salvation is their feelings. Often this “evidence” is described as a “better felt than told” experience, “indescribable yet, undeniable.” They state that those who haven’t experienced it just can’t understand it. But such is really not evidence of salvation at all. Why did the Lord expect us to be able to give an account for the hope within us to all who ask if they can’t understand it anyway? The devout Hindu, Muslim, and other religious people can present the same testimony regarding their salvation– they feel saved. Feelings, however, can be deceptive.

One may honestly and sincerely feel that he is saved, but that does not prove that he is saved. One’s hope of salvation cannot rest on the foundation of feelings, because feelings are not evidence of forgiveness. Jesus declared, “Not Holy Vible everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name? ‘And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!” (Mt. 7:21-23). Here were people who apparently “felt saved.” They felt secure. However, they were surprised to find out that they were not “known by the Lord.” They relied on what they felt would be pleasing to the Lord instead of “doing the will of the Father” in order to be saved.

The apostle declared, “We walk by faith, and not by sight” (2Cor. 5:7). We must understand that faith is more than a feeling. Our faith in God and our salvation through His Son Jesus is not based on a sign that can be seen, or a feeling that can be felt, but upon faith in His everlasting word and acting upon it. When the Scripture speaks of “walking” by faith it indicates that faith must act. When it comes to “walking” in this life we have two choices: 1. We can walk by sight– i.e. according to human wisdom, human guidance, trusting in what “I” think, see, or feel. 2. Or we can walk by faith– act as God leads. And how does God lead? Ps. 119:105 states, “Thy word is a lamp to my feet, and a light to my path.” Jesus stated that God draws us as we hear and are taught and learn (Jn. 6:45). We must walk by faith and “faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God” (Rom. 10:17). An individual who cannot prove his salvation by the word of God has no real evidence of forgiveness.

It takes more than just my witness or testimony that I am saved, it also takes the witness of the Spirit of God revealed in the Scriptures. “The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God” (Rom. 8:16). Note that the Spirit does not bear witness “to” our spirit that we are God’s children, but “with” our spirit. When our witness or testimony of how we know we are saved agrees with the Spirit’s witness, that which is revealed in the Bible of what is required of one to be saved, then we can know assuredly that we are children of God. Then the evidence our salvation is base upon fact not feeling.

The Spirit through the apostle declared, “repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of sin” (Acts 2:38). When one submits in obedience to the conditions of the gospel he by the grace of God is forgiven. Evidence of that forgiveness is not based on some miraculous sign or an emotional feeling, but upon the promise of God. Thus, one can be assured of his salvation and have “hope of eternal life, which God, who cannot lie, promised long ages ago” (Tit. 1:12). What is the evidence your salvation?

Winning Caribbean Stud System I

What to do

1) Call with any pair or better

2) Call with Ace-King-Queen-Jack-X, where “X” is not a 10

3) Call with Ace-King-Queen-X-X only if the dealer holds any of your cards

4) Call with Ace-King-Queen-8-X

5) Fold anything else, except higher card combinations (trips, full house, etc.).

6) Make the $1 extra bet only when the jackpot reached $200,000 minimum.

How it works

1) Many players will fold small 168bet , such as 2s, 3s, and 4s. A bad mistake. You will be dealt a pair about 42.3% of the time. And most pairs you bet will give you an expected gain. Each pair you don’t bet will cost your money. If a player folds his pairs of 2s-4s, he will be giving the house an edge of over 7%.

2) This hand is worth calling with because the dealer will probably be defeated, even if he has an ace-king hand, such as Ace-King-Queen-10-9. Since you hold an Ace and King, you reduced his chance of pairing his cards.

3) You call only if the dealer holds any of your cards because you reduced his chance of pairing his card, since you are holding one of them already.

4) It simply takes an Ace and King out of the dealers hand.

5) Many people call with a missed straight, such as King-Queen-10-9-8 or similar. You should call only with the four here suggested combinations and of course any of the higher hands (trips, 4 of a kind, straight, full house, flush, etc.).

6) A royal flush comes up only once in 649,740 hands and the straight flush once in 72,193 plays. If you play for the jackpot when the meter is set at $50,000, the casino has over a 40% edge on your bet. Even if the jackpot is about $250,000, your bet isn’t that good. however, if you want to gamble, try for the jackpot when it reaches $200,000.

Comments

I would avoid playing this game for any serious money because of the large house edge. When using this strategy the house edge will be cut down to 5.27%. This means that your loss expectation is $5.27 for each $100 bet over the long run.

There is actually a psychological factor to blackjack, making it more complicated than it would initially seem. In fact, that psychological factor is quite major because it relates to your state of mind while playing. You’re going to be the one making all the decisions and calling all the shots throughout the game, so that psych factor could make the difference between a winner and a total bankroll wipeout.

Don’t Lose Your Focus

Just about every blackjack players handbook and strategy guide out there will say this, and for good reason. This simply cannot be overstated. When you sit down at a blackjack table, you simply cannot be distracted, troubled, fidgety or – even worse – with an impeded sense of judgment (read: drunk). Remember that the people who win at blackjack are those people who can make good decisions at key points in the game and based on previous events in the game. You have to focus on the card being dealt out, on the dealer’s cards, on the cards of the other people at the table and, most importantly, your own cards. Doing that is impossible if your mind is clearly not in the same place as the cards.

Get Over Your Apprehensions

Many players have preexisting apprehensions when it comes to decisions in a blackjack game. Many of these fears are related to going bust when they’re hitting and already have a high number like 17. Even if all card counting strategies and calculations on probability would support the decision to hit, it’s very likely that those reservations still exist. Players who lose actually prefer to be beaten by the dealer than to go bust, because going bust says something about an incorrect decision or an avoidable event earlier in the game.

If you’re familiar with and you’re experiencing this factor, there’s nothing like Situs Slot practice to help you get over it. Aside from regular blackjack sessions, set some practice time aside for your card counting or other probability-based strategies as well. The idea is to steep you both in the mood of an actual blackjack game and in the logic-based decision process. You have to learn how the actual game feels and how to make decision calls based more on facts and numbers rather than fears and emotions.

While they’re certainly not easy to overcome, these mental stumbling blocks are almost always personal problems, so you can also solve them yourself. Investing just a little time each day or week in improving your psychological outlook while practicing your regular blackjack routine will surely go a long way.

Chinese Blackjack

Blackjack is a very popular card game which is played in the various casinos worldwide and it is said to have originated in the early years of the 18 th century in France and this game was played in French casinos in vogue. Blackjack is a prominent card game played on a black jack table in the casinos and contrary to various casino games which are based only on luck, blackjack is one unique game which requires a perfect mix of luck and sheer intelligence to ensure winning in the end.

The immense popularity of this game has resulted in the introduction of its different variants. Chinese blackjack can be referred to as one of the most popular casino games in south East Asia and it is quite similar to the original game techniques used in conventional blackjack. Chinese blackjack is also known as ban-luck or Hokkien and 21-point.

The Chinese blackjack makes use of 52 card decks and it is possible to play this casino game by any number of players. There is one dealer and the rest are players though in certain cases it is possible for the players to take chances in taking up the position of the dealer. There are several exclusive features that have resulted in this game becoming extremely popular. The most significant cause of this popularity is due to the fact that in course of this game, the dealer is given the authority of revealing some of the player’s hands and therefore conclude a separate deal with them and again after a while revealing another player’s hand and vice versa. The Chinese blackjack also allows the possession of five unbusted cards as well. In this game, the value of the Ace is determined by the collective value of the total number of cards. It is also necessary to point out in case of Chinese blackjack that this casino game usually follows certain selected rules. But in certain cases it is possible to alter the house rules. In this case it is necessary to point out the meaning of what is being meant by house rules. House rules refer to those rules which are not adapted in case of usual Chinese blackjack games. House rules are achieved when either a player or a dealer has a free hand and it si upon them to decide whether to continue the game further or not.
