Our Message
There are four things we must understand and accept in order to go to heaven:
1. God’s desire is to give us eternal life.
· We receive eternal life as a free gift (Romans 6 : 23)
· We can live a full, meaningful life right now (John 1 0 : 10)
· We will spend eternity with Jesus in heaven (John 1 4 : 3)
Eternal life gives meaning to life, yet… Our sinful nature keeps us from fulfilling God’s purpose for our lives. Thus:
2. 0ur need is to understand our problem.
· We are all sinners by nature and by choice (Romans 3 : 23)
· We cannot save ourselves (Ephesians 2 : 9)
· We are bound for death and hell (Romans 6 : 23)
God is holy and just and must punish sin, yet He loves us and
has provided forgiveness for our sin. (John 1 4 : 6)
3. God’s provision is Jesus Christ.
· Jesus is God and became man (John 1 : 1, 14)
· Jesus died for our sins on the cross (1 Peter 3 : 18)
· Jesus was resurrected from the dead (Romans 4 : 25)
That’s the good news… But the only way Jesus can affect our lives is for us to receive Him. (John 1 :12) The choice is ours. So:
4. 0ur response is to receive Jesus.
· We must repent of our sins (Acts 3 : 19)
· We must place our faith in Jesus (Ephesians 2 : 8)
· We must pray in faith, believing (Romans 1 0 : 9-10)
The Bible says,”Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.”(Romans 1 0 : 13) Now you can know for certain you are going to Heaven.
