...that you are going to be with God in heaven?
If God were to ask you, "Why should I let you into my heaven" what would you say?
If you are uncertain or hesitate for a moment to answer that question, this booklet has the ...
BEST NEWS you could ever hear! The few minutes it will take you to read the following pages may be the most important time you will ever spend!
Did you know that Bible tells how you can know for sure that you have eternal life abd will go to be with God in heaven?
"These things I have written to you ... that you may know that you have eternal life." 1John 5:13
Here's how you can know for sure ...
1. HEAVEN (ETERNAL LIFE) IS A FREE GIFT.
The Bible says, "... the GIFT of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." (Romans 6:23b)
And because heaven is a gift like any other genuine gift ...
IT IS NOT EARNED or DESERVED
therefore, no amount of personal effort, good works, or religious deeds can earn a place in heaven for you.
"By grace you have been saved through faith, and that NOT OF YOURSELVES; it is the GIFT of God, NOT OF WORKS, lest any man should boast." Ephesians 2:8,9
WHY is it that no one can earn his way to heaven? Because ...
2.MAN IS A SINNER.
"All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." Romans 3:23
Sin is transgressing God's law and includes such things as lying, lust, cheating, deceit, anger, evil thoughts, immoral behavior, and more.
And because of this ...
MAN CANNOT SAVE HIMSELF.
If you wanted to save yourself by good deeds, do you know how good you would have to be?
The Bible says you would have to be perfect.
"Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect." Matthew 5:48
With such a high standard, no one can save himself for God also says,
"Whoever shall keep the whole law, and yet stumble in one point, he is guilty of all." James 2:10
In spite of our sin, however ...
3.GOD IS MERCIFUL, and therefore DOESN'T WANT TO PUNISH US.
This is because ...
"God is love ..." 1John4:8b
and He says,
"I have loved you with an everlasting love." Jeremiah 31:3b
But the same Bible that tells us that God loves us also tells us that ...
GOD IS JUST, and therefore MUST PUNISH SIN.
He says ...
"... I will by no means clear the guilty ..." Exodus 34:7b
"The soul who sins shall die." Ezekiel 18:4
We have a problem; we have all sinned. The penalty for sin is death. We need forgiveness so that we can have a right relationship with God.
God solved this problem for us in the Person of ...
4. JESUS CHRIST
Who exactly would you say Jesus Christ is?
The Bible tells us clearly that He is the infinite GOD - MAN.
"In the beginning was the WORD(Jesus) ... and the Word(Jesus) was God ... and the Word(Jesus) became flesh and dwelt among us ..." John 1:1, 14
Jesus Christ came to earth and lived a sinless life, but while on earth ...
WHAT DID HE DO?
He died on the cross to pay the penalty for our sins rose from the grave to purchase a place for us in heaven.
"All we like 녿데 have gone astray; we have turned, every one, to his own way; and the Lord has laid on Him(Jesus) the iniquity of us all.” Isaiah 53:6
God hates our ins but because of His love for us, He has placed them all on His Son. Christ bore our sin in His body on the cross.
Now Jesus Christ offers you eternal life(heaven) as a free gift.
This gift is received by ...
5.FAITH
Faith is the key that opens the door to heaven. Many people mistake two things for saving faith:
1. Mere INTELLECTUAL ASSENT, that is, believing certain historical facts. The Bible says the devil believes in God, so believing in God is not saving faith.
2. Mere TEMPORAL FAITH, that is, trusting God for temporary crises such as financial, family, or physical needs.
Now these are good, and you should trust Christ for these, but they are not saving faith!
SAVING FAITH is trusting in Jesus Christ alone for salvation. It means resting upon Christ alone and what He has done to get us into heaven.
"Believe(trust) on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved ..." Acts 16:31a
Faith is like the hand of a beggar receiving the gift of king. We don't deserve the gift of eternal life. But we can have it, if we will receive it by faith.
You have just read the greatest story ever told about the greatest offer ever made by the greatest Person who ever lived - Jesus Christ.
The question that God is asking you now is ...
WOULD YOU LIKE TO RECEIVE THE GIFT OF ETERNAL LIFE?
Because this is such an important matter ...
LET'S CLARIFY just what this involves. It means, first of all, that you TRANSFER YOUR TRUST from what you have been doing to what Christ has done for you on the cross.
It means, next that you RECEIVE THE RESURRECTED, LIVING CHRIST into your life as SAVIOR.
He says, "Behold, I stand at the door and knock [at the door of your life]. If any one hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him." Revelation 3:20
It means further that you RECEIVE JESUS CHRIST INTO YOUR LIFE AS LORD. He comes as Master and King. There is a throne room in your heart, and that throne is rightly His. He made you. He bought you and He wants to take His rightful place on the throne
of your life.
It means, finally, that you REPENT OF YOUR SINS. That means that you are wiling to turn from anything you have been doing that is not pleasing to Him and to follow Him as He reveals His will to you in His Word.
Now, If this is what you really want ...
YOU CAN GO TO GOD IN PRAYER
right where you are. You can receive His gift of eternal life through Jesus Christ right now.
"...with the heart one believes to righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made to salvation ... for whoever call supon the name of the Lord shall be saved." Romans 10:10,13
If you want to receive the gift of eternal life through Jesus Christ, then call on Him, asking Him for this gift right now.
HERE'S A SUGGESTED PREYER
"Lord Jesus Christ, I know I am a sinner and do not deserve eternal life. But, I believe You died and rose from the grave to purchase a place in heaven for me. Lord Jesus, come into my life; take control of my life; forgive my sins 믕 save me. I repent of my sins and now place my trust in you for my salvation. I accept the free gift of eternal life."
If this preyer is the sincere desire of your heart, look at what Jesus promises to those who believe in Him.
"Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me has everlasting life." John 6:47
WELCOME to God's Family!
If you have truly repented (forsaken, turned away) from your sins, placed your trust in Jesus Christ's sacrificial death, abd received the gift of eternal life, you are now a child of God!
Forever! Welcome to the Family of God!
"But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name." John 1:12
TODAY is your SPIRITUAL BIRTHDAY -
a day that you will always want to remember!
"Who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God." John 1:13
When you were physically born, the day of your birth was attested by a birth certificate.
And so today, to help you recall what God had done in your life on this important day, we invite you to sign and keep the following...
SPIRITUAL BIRTH CERTIFICATE
"For whoever calls upon the name of Lord shall be saved." Romans 10:13
Knowing that I have sinned and that I need the Lord Jesus Christ as my Savior, I now turn from my sins and trust Jesus for my eternal life, I ask Jesus Christ to forgive me and to deliver me from sin's power and give me eternal life.
I now give Jesus Christ control of my life.
From this time forward, as He gives me strength, I will seek to serve Him and obey Him in all areas of my life.
