Life on
this earth is good when you KNOW Heaven is to come.
There are
basically four things you need to know from the Bible to
have the assurance that when you die, you will go to
Heaven.
EVERYONE IS A SINNER
Romans
3:23 "For all have sinned, and come short of the
glory of God." The reason that we "come short"
of God's glory (God's righteousness or perfect nature)
is because "All have sinned." "All" includes me and it
also includes you. First of all, you must agree with
the Bible and admit that you are a sinner.
EVERYONE OWES A SIN-DEBT
Romans
6:23a "For the wages (penalty or debt) of sin is
death." This is speaking of eternal death which
is also called "The second death." REVELATION 20:14
"And death and Hell were cast into the lake of fire.
This is the second death." Secondly, you must
realize that if you die in your sin, then you must pay
the penalty for sin by sending eternity in Hell.
EVERYONE'S SIN-DEBT HAS BEEN PAID
Romans
6:23 "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift
of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."
Although sin brings eternal death, God wants to
give us eternal life.
Notice: "Eternal life" is
1. Not through going to church.
2. Not through being baptized.
3. Not through being a good person, but it is "through
Jesus Christ."
Romans 5:8 "But God commendeth His love toward us,
in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us."
The third thing you must believe is, that Jesus has paid
the wages of sin by dying for you, and eternal life is
only through him. The third thing you must believe is,
that Jesus has paid the wages of sin by dying for you
and eternal life is only through Him.
EVERYONE CAN BE SAVED
Although Jesus died to pay everyone's sin debt, not
everyone is on their way to Heaven. You must personally
receive God's Gift of eternal life. You must believe
what Jesus has done for you.
Romans 10:9 "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."
If you
would like to receive Christ Jesus as your Saviour
simply bow your head right now and humbly:
1. Confess to God that you are a sinner.
2. Ask God to forgive your sin.
3. By faith, trust Christ Jesus as your Saviour.
I John
5:13 "These things have I written unto you that believe
on the name of the Son of God: that ye may KNOW that ye
have eternal life."
John
10:28 "And I give unto them eternal life; and they
shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out
of my hand."
John
3:36 "He that believeth on the Son hath
everlasting life; and he that believeth not the shon
shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on
him." |
