HE BIBLE SAYS

“These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of
God, that ye may know that ye have eternal life…” (1 John 5:13). God wants
us all to know that we can go to Heaven, but if we expect to get there we
must go His way.

WE ARE ALL SINNERS

What does God’s Word teach about this all important subject? First of all, we
are all sinners. “For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God,”
(Romans 3:23). Because of our sin we are under sin’s penalty, which is
death. “For the wages of sin is death…” (Romans 6:23a). This penalty
means eternal separation from God in hell.

CHRIST DIED FOR OUR SINS

God does not want anyone to go to hell, so He sent His only begotten Son to
die and pay the penalty of our sins. “But God commendeth his love toward
us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” (Romans 5:8)
Christ’s death was necessary to provide the only way to Heaven. “Here in is
love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the
propitiation [full payment] for our sins.” (1 John 4:10).

ETERNAL LIFE IS GOD’S GIFT

God’s love for us is so great that He made a way for our sins to be forgiven.
He offers His forgiveness and salvation freely. “…but the gift of God is
eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Romans 6:23b) Please note that
eternal life is offered to you as a gift. But like a gift, it is not yours until you
receive it. To receive Christ is to receive life-eternal life, a home in Heaven.

HOW TO RECEIVE CHRIST

Here is how you may receive Jesus Christ. “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.” (Romans 10:9). You must
believe with all your heart, and call on the Lord to save you. “For whosoever
shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13)

YOU MUST REPENT

“And the times of this ignorance God winked at, but now commandeth all
men every where to repent.” (Acts 17:30) To repent literally means to turn
away from your sin and turn to serve Jesus Christ.

CALL ON THE LORD NOW

So you may know for sure you are going to Heaven, be truthful from your
heart and call unto God with this prayer:

“Dear Jesus, Please forgive me for all my sins. I believe You died on the
cross for me, and I believe that it’s your blood that washes my sins away.
I’m willing to turn from my sin and serve You. I ask you to come into my
life and save me, thank You for saving me Jesus, Amen.”

If you prayed this prayer, message me, and I can send you some material on the Christian walk.
