Where will you spend your eternity?
Everyone that is alive today came from the first two people who were created by God.
Genesis 1:27 says:
“So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.”
In Adam, all humans are represented. The penalty for the sin in the garden of Eden was passed on to all mankind.
Romans 5:12 states:
“Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:”
The Bible also tells us in Romans 3:10:
“As it is written, there is none righteous, no, not one:”
And Romans 3:23 says:
“For all have sinned, and come short of the of the glory of God;”
We can’t help the fact that we were born into sin. Condemnation is already upon us. As you see, no matter how good we try to live, the stain of sin is still there. It all points back to our sinful bloodline. Because of our sin we are faced with a penalty that has to be paid.
Romans 6:23a says:
“For the wages of sin is death,...”
If we die in our sins we must spend eternity separated from God in a burning Lake of Fire.
Revelation 20:14 tells us:
“And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.”
If man were left to fend for his own salvation, he would be doomed. That’s why God the Father made a way for us to be saved. He sent his only begotten Son to Earth, being born of a virgin, to die for the sins of all mankind. Jesus Christ had a different bloodline. It was a sinless bloodline.
He lived a sinless life, thus, becoming our substitute in the penalty of death.
The Bible says in 2 Corinthians 5:21:
“For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.”
And in John 3:16 it tells us:
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”
And in Romans 5:8 we read:
“But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.”
Jesus Christ didn’t just die for us, but He was buried and rose from the dead, conquering sin, death, and the grave.
Now that you see that we stand before God as a sinner, you are faced with a choice:
Do you continue on your sinful path and go to Hell when you die or do you choose to place your faith in the LORD Jesus Christ and walk the path to everlasting life?
The choice to trust Jesus Christ is called “repentance.” This is an act of your will to choose to turn from sin and exercise faith toward the LORD Jesus Christ.
The Bible tells us in Acts 20:21:
“Testifying both to the Jews and also to the Greeks, repentance toward God, and faith toward our LORD Jesus Christ.”
You need to call upon the name of the Lord. Romans 10:9-10,13 says:
“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. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
If you would like to be saved, call upon the Lord in your own words:
1. Confessing you are a sinner.
2. Acknowledging that you deserve to go to Hell.
3. Turn to Jesus Christ from your sin.
4. By faith receive the LORD Jesus Christ as your personal Savior.
By the way… SALVATION IS FOREVER!
“And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.” (John 10:28)
