| If you were to pass from this life right now.... | |||
| Do you know for certain what would happen to you? Do you know where you would spend eternity? Would you like to know for sure? |
|||
| Let's start from the beginning.... | |||
| God created this world as a perfect place without sin and violence. Man chose to disobey God and that is how this all got started. Sin separates us from God. |
|||
|
|||
| The Bible tells us.... | |||
| for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. (Romans 3:23) | |||
| and | |||
| the wages of sin is death, (Romans 6:23a) | |||
| What is sin? | |||
| Sin is anything we do wrong like.... | |||
| not telling the truth. cheating on a test. thinking bad thoughts.... |
|||
| I think you get the picture of sin. | |||
| But, | |||
| there is some good news also | |||
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. (John 3:16) but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 6:23b) |
|||
| But I'm a good person. I.... | |||
| have not hurt anybody don't cheat or steal help other people go to church sometimes |
|||
Isn't that enough? No! The Bible says.... |
|||
| For it is by grace you have
been saved, through faith-- and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of
God-- not by works, so that no one can boast. (Ephesians 2:8-9) |
|||
| How do I take advantage of this grace and get this gift? | |||
| The Bible says.... | |||
That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. (Romans 10:9) "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." (Romans 10:13) |
|||
| When you ask Jesus to save you he comes into your life, removes your sin and is the bridge between you and God. | |||
|
|||
| How do I do this? | |||
| Talk to God in your own words and use this prayer as a guideline. | |||
|
|||
| If you are really ready to respond to Jesus please pray right now. | |||
| Always remember what the Bible says happens after you ask Jesus into your heart. | |||
| Whoever believes in the Son (that's you if you asked Jesus into your heart!) has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God's wrath remains on him." (John 3:36) | |||
| Therefore, if anyone is in Christ (that's you too!), he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come! (2 Corinthians 5:17) | |||
| If you have asked Jesus into your heart, have any questions or need special prayer will you please E-mail us. | |||
