A Question The most important question you will ever be asked in life is "where will you spend eternity?"
We
have a promise of eternal life in Heaven
with Christ if we choose to accept Him
as our Lord and Saviour. John 3:16
tells us that God loved the world and
sent His only begotten Son, that
whosoever believes in Him shall not
perish, but
will
have everlasting life. The choice
is one each person will have to
make. We have a heaven to
gain if we choose Jesus, or eternity in
hell without Him if we choose to
reject Him and His plan of
salvation.
It
is not God's will that any should
perish, but that all should come
to Him and to everlasting
life. We are all sinners and there
is none righteous, no not one. For
all have sinned and come short of the
glory of God. (Romans 3:23)
Salvation is as simple as the
ABC'S.
One must first admit they are a sinner
in need of a Saviour and ask Jesus to
come into their heart. By
believing upon Him and his death, burial
and resurrection, one can come to Him
and ask Him to receive them into the
Family of God. (John 3:16)
We must confess with our mouth our
sins unto the Father, and believe in our
hearts He hears and will save those who
come unto Him. (1 John 1:9) He
tells us those who do come to Him, He
will in no wise cast out.
(John 6:37)
Greater
love hath no man that Jesus, who laid
down his life for the sins of the
world. (John 15:13) This
love atoned for our sins. It
covered them and also took them
away. Jesus says our sins are cast
as far as the East is from the
West. They are in the sea of God's
forgetfulness, as He remembers them no
more. His shed blood at Calvary's
cross atoned for and paid the price for
the debt we owed for our sins.
Today is the day of Salvation. If you do not know Christ as your personal Saviour, call upon Him in prayer, as you would talk to your best friend. He is a friend who sticketh closer than a brother. He will hear you this day and give you a "new life" in Him full of love, joy, and peace. He is the Vine, and we are the branches as Christians. We draw our strength from Him and He provides all we ever need to bring forth fruit unto everlasting life....................
God Bless You!
