Did you
ever consider that just maybe JESUS is ALIVE?
Because if He is, then you might be in real
trouble! Oh, maybe not today, but when your life on this Earth ends and you have to stand
before Jesus and try and convince Him to let you in Heaven, youll be in BIG TROUBLE
then!
Why?
Heaven is
His show and if you dont have a ticket, you dont get in!
Jesus
said- Truly, truly, I say unto you, unless you are born again, you cant see the
kingdom of God. Unless you are born of water and born of the Spirit, you cant enter
into the kingdom of God. Dont be surprised that I told you, You must be born again,
of the Spirit. (from John 3:3,5,7,8)
Whats
born again" mean anyway?
Born again means to be reborn
spiritually into GODS kingdom. Just as you were born into this world, you have to be
born into GODS world of the Spirit. One was a natural birth, the other a spiritual
birth. Just as a baby cant see into the natural world before it is born naturally,
so neither can you see into GODS spiritual world until you are born spiritually.
I think that
GOD will take us all in anyway, after all He loves us, right?
That sure sounds good, and it is true that GOD
does love us. It is also true that GOD wants us to be in Heaven with Him when we die.
Unfortunately though, we have a big problem that prevents us from getting in. That problem
is SIN! Sin stops us from going to Heaven when we die.
So what is sin?
* If you keep every law and break it only in one
point you are guilty of breaking them all. (from James 2:10)
* all have sinned and come short of the glory of GOD. (Romans 3:23)
* therefore, when you know the right thing to do, and then you don't
do it, you are committing sin. (from James 4:17)
* sin is the violating of GOD's laws (from 1 John 3:4)
How does sin keep me out of Heaven if
GOD wants to forgive me?
Though GOD wants to forgive us, He also said
these things.
* the wages of sin is death (Romans 6:23)
* the soul that sins, it shall die (Ezekiel 18:4)
* there is way that seems right to us, but it ends in the way of
death (from Proverbs 14:12)
So if I sin ever in my life then I'm
doomed to go to hell?
You got it!
Then I have no hope?
WRONG ! Hope is the one thing that you do have
because that loving caring GOD made a way, the only way, for all of us people to escape
hell! GOD'S way is JESUS!
******* GODS way is JESUS! *******
How is Jesus GOD'S way?
* GOD demonstrates his own love for us this way:
While we all were sinners, Christ died for us. (from Romans 5:8)
* there is one GOD and one mediator(negotiator) in-between GOD and
us, the man Jesus Christ. (from 1Timothy 2:5)
* Jesus Christ has suffered for sin, the just for the unjust, that
He might bring us to GOD, by being put to death in the flesh, but made alive again by the
Holy Spirit (from 1 Peter 3:8)
* Jesus shall save his people from their sins. (from Matt 1:21)
* in the appointed time Jesus Christ died for the ungodly. (from
Romans 5:6)
*This is a faithful saying, and worthy of being accepted, that Jesus
Christ came into the world to save sinners; (from 1Timothy 1:15)
How did Jesus save me from my sin?
* by his own blood he entered in once into the holy
place, having obtained eternal redemption for us. (from Hebrews 9:12)
* All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to
his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all. (Isaiah 53:6)
* And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and
became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. (Philippians 2:8)
So there
you have it, because of Jesus dying on the cross, Im going to Heaven. I told you GOD
would just forgive me anyway!
Dont jump to conclusions so quickly. You have a part to
do in this too!
* I tell you, No: but, except you repent, all of you shall perish.( from Luke 1:13)
To repent means to change the way your
living. Stop doing wrong.
* Repent
and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out,
and GOD shall send Jesus Christ unto you:(from Acts 3:19-20) Converted means to
have your attitude towards GOD and His ways.
* If we confess
our sins, GOD is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all
unrighteousness. (1 John 1:9) Confess means to admit openly to GOD that you have
done wrong or sinned.
* But to as many that have received Jesus, GOD gave them gave the power to become the
sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:(John 1:12) Receive means to
open up your heart and life and ask Jesus to come inside you and to help you start life
over again, except this time with a new heart, a new attitude, a new mind. Thats
what Born again means.
* Anyone that believes
on Jesus has everlasting life.(from John 6:47) Believes means that you know that
Jesus is your Savior and that you now live you
life here in His service through a good local church like ours.
READ THESE TO SEE WHAT I MEAN.
* For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall
die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. (Romans
8:13
* Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a
new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. (2
Corinthians 5:17)
* Beloved, let us love one another: for love
is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. He that loveth not
knoweth not God; for God is love.(1 John 4:7-8)
SEE YOU HAVE A BIG PART IN THIS TOO!
Finally, once your born again you
have to be baptized in water and expect to receive the Holy Ghost.
* Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for
the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. (Acts 2:38)
ARE YOU SURE THAT HEAVEN
WILL BE YOUR HOME AFTER YOU DIE? DO YOU HAVE THE PEACE OF MIND TO KNOW FOR SURE THAT GOD
WILL LET YOU INTO HEAVEN? YOU CAN, YOU KNOW, BUT IT MUST BE GOD'S WAY FOR US ALL. JESUS IS
GOD'S WAY! IF THERE WAS ANOTHER WAY THAN GOD WOULD HAVE TOLD US IN THE BIBLE!
IF YOU DONT DO IT GODS
WAY, YOU DONT GET IN. WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? YOU WILL NEVER KNOW WHEN IT IS YOUR
TIME TO GO. BY NOT CHOOSING GODS WAY TO GET INTO HEAVEN, YOU ARE CHOOSING HELL,
FOREVER! THINK ABOUT IT AND DECIDE, TODAY!
IF YOU AREN'T SURE THAT HEAVEN
WILL BE YOUR ETERNAL HOME AND IF YOU SEE YOUR NEED TO BE 'BORN AGAIN', THEN TALK TO
GOD, YOUR WAY, AND TELL HIM SO. HE KNOWS IF YOUR SERIOUS OR NOT, SO DON'T TRY TO FOOL WITH
GOD. AFTER YOU TALK (pray) TO GOD AND ACCEPT JESUS AS YOUR SAVIOR, THEN E-MAIL US AND LET
US KNOW. DON'T DELAY, DO IT TODAY!
