Where Will
You
Spend Eternity?
Perhaps you
have never been asked this question before. Contrary to what you may
have heard, God's Word says everyone will spend eternity in one of two
places, Heaven or Hell. Life on this earth is fragile and we never
know when we may draw our last breath.
God designed
the plan of salvation to be simple, so even a child could comprehend. The message here is very straightforward. I would invite you to read the following statements to
see what God's Word has to say about your eternal destiny.
All Have Sinned
There is not a
righteous man on earth who does what is right and never sins.
~Ecclesiastes 7:20~
But your iniquities
have separated you from your God; your sins have hidden his face from you,
so that he will not hear.
~Isaiah 59:2~
As it is written: there is no one righteous, not even one.
~Romans 3:10~
The Penalty for Sin
For the wages of sin is
death.
~Romans 6:23~
"
He will punish those who do not know God and do not
obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. They will be punished with everlasting
destruction and shut out from the presence of the Lord and from the
majesty of his power.
~1
Thessalonians 1:8-9~
Jesus Paid the Penalty for
our Sins
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 God
demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still
sinners, Christ died for us.
~Romans 5:8~
For Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous
for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body
but made alive by the Spirit.
~1 Peter 3:18~
Jesus is the Only Way
Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the
life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
~John 14:6~
Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other
name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved.
~Acts 4:12~
What Must I do to be Saved?
I tell you the truth,
whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and
will not be condemned; he has crossed over from death to life.
~John 5:24~
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 10:13~
Receive Salvation Now!
If you would like to become a Christian, you can do that
right now through prayer. You may use the following prayer:
Heavenly Father, I confess that I am a sinner. I believe Jesus died
on the cross and that his shed blood, death, burial, and resurrection was
for me. I ask forgiveness for all my sins and will forsake them. Please come into my heart and save me. Thank you for your gift of
everlasting life. In the name of Jesus I pray, Amen.
If you prayed the above prayer and meant it from your
heart, you have just received God's free gift!
"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~
If you asked Jesus to come into your heart, I
would love to hear from you. Please sign my
Believers Guest Book
to let me know of your decision so that I may
pray for you and rejoice with you.
Now that you are a
child of God, I would encourage you to pray, start reading God's Word
(the book of John is a good place to start), and attend a Bible
believing church so you can grow as a Christian. God has a plan for
your life, and He will direct your steps.
May God richly bless
you in your walk with Him!
