What if this was your last Year... last Week...or last Day on Earth? Do you know where you will go? We were all born sinners... everyone. “Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned.” Romans 5:12 How did you become a sinner? Adam was the first man whom God created. Adam sinned by disobeying God. Everyone who was born after him was born with a desire to do wrong. The result of sin is death and eternal separation from God in hell. Do you realize that you are a sinner? Eternal life is not EARNED by doing good things. “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast.” Ephesians 2:8-9 The Bible is clear on which direction NOT to go. Eternal life is not gained by balancing more good works than sins committed. It is a free gift. A gift is something voluntarily transferred by one person to another without compensation. This means eternal life is free! Do you understand that eternal life cannot be earned? Jesus Christ died for your sin. “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” Romans 5:8 “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” John 14:6 The word commendeth means proved. God proved His love for you by sending Jesus to die on the cross to pay the penalty for your sin. Jesus became your substitute. Jesus said He is the only way to heaven. Do you understand that Jesus died for you? “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 3:16 Life is busy. Numerous responsibilities are pulling for your time and attention. However, do not delay believing on Jesus as your Saviour. Do you remember a time in your life when you believed on Jesus Christ as your Saviour? You can receive Jesus Christ as your Saviour right now. It's a gift. Accept it. “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.” Romans 10:9 To believe on Jesus Christ as Saviour means to believe that He died for you, paid the price for your sin and that He is the only way to heaven. You can express your belief on Jesus by calling on Him in prayer. To believe does NOT mean to only believe that Jesus existed or that He was a good example. Many people know that Jesus is existed. You must believe what he has done for you. He died for you. Pray sincerely… “Dear Jesus, I know that I am a sinner. I believe that you died on the cross and paid the penalty for my sin. I believe that you rose from the dead three days later. I am placing my faith in you alone to forgive my sin and save me. Thank you for giving me eternal life. In Jesus’ name, AMEN.” |
| “These things have I written unto you . . . that ye may know that ye have eternal life.” I John 5:13 It is God’s desire for you to be absolutely sure that you are going to heaven when you die. God does not want you to have a “wait-and-see” or “cross- your-fingers” attitude toward something as important as where you will spend eternity. He says that you can know. |
