If you died today, do you know where you will spin eternity; be it Heaven or Hell?
Ephesians 2:8-10 King James Version
8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.
10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
It is not by your good works or you being a good person. Nothing you can do will get you into heaven.
Now that may sound harsh and hard to understand. You may think I haven’t killed anyone surely I deserve to go there. I haven’t committed any crimes and have always strived to do the right thing that must get me there. I am better than others so that must be it. I have all this money and I give back to help others surely it counts.
While that may all be true you will still end up going to hell. Now do not loose hope or stop reading as there is hope.
It really is that simple to come unto the Lord by simply calling upon His name. No where is it written you have to be perfect or you have done the most terrible things that He will reject you. All lies told by the devil himself do that you will not come unto the Father.
Romans 10:13 King James Version
13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
Confess your sin: Praying to Jesus simply say I am a sinner you don’t have to make a list of your short comings and you don’t need to wait to be perect or think you can make this choice later, you may not have later to do so.
Romans 10:9-11 King James Version
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.
10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
Believe: You are not asked to do anything other than to believe in Jesus Christ. God already paid and prepared a way for us through His son Jesus on the cross.
Acts 16:31-33 King James Version
31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.
32 And they spake unto him the word of the Lord, and to all that were in his house.
33 And he took them the same hour of the night, and washed their stripes; and was baptized, he and all his, straightway.
Receive: He is there waiting for you not wanting you to be separated for eternity. Let Him fill the void and emptiness. Let Him fix your broken spirit and bring peace into your life. Let Him comfort you and love you as you may not have ever known love.
Revelation 3:20 King James Version
20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
God’s love for us is so great he sent His son to die for our sins. Without Jesus going to the cross we would not have been able to have a way to get to heaven. The world had turn so wicked that even with God’s promise not to flood the earth again, He knew He would have to send Jesus down so that we might be saved. Otherwise we would be spending eternity in hell and heaven would be what we experience here on earth.
God’s reason to send His son to earth:
John 3:16-17 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.
17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
He has come to save us not to harm us. Jesus doesn’t want any to perish and spin eternity separated from Him. He gives us Free will to choose Him or reject Him.
