Salvation
Sin came quickly into the world. As a result man and all creation fell from the glory God created it to be. Sin results in doom and eternal destruction. Think about this …. The very first Man born on the earth became a murderer, and he murdered his
own brother no less! The sin condition is universal, we All have it. The Bible says the only payment for sin is a sinless blood sacrifice. However nobody has ever been free from sin, except Jesus Christ, because He is God.
The world is on a “default setting”, the sin condition automatically predestined us to eternal doom. You choose to “change the settings “with Jesus. God has always had a plan to save us from eternal doom. Jesus is God’s plan for Everlasting Life.
Sin cannot and will not exist in the presence of God. We must be sin free to enter into God’s glorious future he has prepared for us in Heaven. Don’t miss it!
There must be a payment for our sin, but there was no perfect sacrifice, so God became a man in Jesus. Jesus said ” take me, I will be the sacrifice for them, take me instead”. That kind of love is hard to comprehend.
This is the ultimate truth, God’s truth. John 3:16 says that “God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life”. And amazingly he loves us so much he chose to reveal it
to us, so we can choose which way we want to spend eternity. Do you want Heaven or Hell? Since we were created for eternity and will live on forever, we will spend it in one of these two places.This is not something that is “open for discussion”.
All mighty God who is perfect ,has made a perfect plan to save everyone who will believe. It is that simple.
Who are we to tell God that we don’t like His plan, that it is too narrow only being one choice. I don’t know that I want to believe in Jesus. A plan for us to live forever in Paradise, in eternal peace and joy and glory?! Really!! Are you kidding me? If
you think there should be another way, a better way than the sacrifice that Jesus made of himself on the cross then YOU have rejected God and have “condemned yourself” to an eternity separated from God in hell. You have made your choice.
You chose the “default setting.” YOU CHOSE an eternity very real, very much alive, separated from God, living in horrible pain, anguish, torment, and hopelessness that never ends. The Bible says “in that place is weeping and gnashing of teeth”.
This should not be a difficult choice. Make the right choice, choose Jesus, you will not be disappointed.
The Bible says we were created for eternity, your body dies, you do not! You live on forever. There is absolutely Life after Death. Therefore it is VERY important where are YOU choose to spend eternity.
Choice is a most powerful gift from God. The power of choice only exists prior to death. At death your “eternal settings “are fixed. Choose a better future through Jesus. You choose! it is your choice alone that sets your eternity.
At this point I hope you can see that God “sends no one to Hell”. In fact He has done everything He can to keep everyone out of hell. We have the freedom of choice which He gave to us He will not take that away from us.
The Bible says “without repentance there is no forgiveness of sin”.
In order to be saved pray like this: Lord Jesus I repent of my sins, please forgive me and save me, come into my heart and change me, I want to be a child of God and I want you to be the Lord of my Life.
Repentance does not just mean I am sorry, it means I turn away from my sin. I change my ways. Repent and ask for forgiveness often. If you pray this from your heart and mean it the Lord will change you and save you. This is the Beginning of a
new life.
Study the Bible, the word of God, and you will grow in the knowledge of God and discover his purpose and plan for your life. And you will have a glorious eternal home in Heaven awaiting you.
God desires to have a personal relationship with you. He loves you more than you can know. If you ask Him, He will lead you and guide you and show you the way to have a deep personal relationship with Him. A relationship far greater and richer
than anything we can imagine.
If you are still unsure about salvation, and eternity and the need for it; just take a moment and say God if you are real and these things are true, I want to know the truth, please make it clear to me so that I may understand. Open my eyes in my
heart so that I may know the truth and walk in it.
Enjoy!
