The only thing that will matter to you in 100 years is where you live- in Heaven with God or in Hell without Him.
Eternal Life
The Most Important Decision
God WANTS you to be in Heaven with Him. Jesus made it easy to get there. All you need to know is 3 simple things…
- We are all sinners
“For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.” Romans 3:23
Sin, whether big or small, acts as a wall between us and God. We can’t get to him with our sin in the way.
- There is a price on sin.
“For the wages [payment] of sin is death…” Romans 6:23a
“But the fearful and unbelieving….and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone. This is the second death.” Revelation 21:8
Just like you would expect a paycheck from your workplace, God expects a payment for our sin. Think consequences to actions. The payment plan laid out for sin is an eternity in the lake of fire.
- The good news- Jesus paid it all!
“…But the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Romans 6:23b
“But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, CHRIST DIED FOR US.” Romans 5:8
Jesus, the Innocent, died for us, the guilty. He took on all our sin and paid our debt by giving His life on the Cross. 3 days later, He rose again from the dead officially conquering death.
Now that you know 3 things, what do you do?
- Accept God’s gift
“For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord SHALL BE SAVED.” Romans 10:13
God is willing to accept you just the way you are. He is willing to forgive and forget. He is willing to give you a permanent home in heaven. Are you willing to accept Him?
If you are, pray this simple prayer:
Dear Jesus, I know I’m a sinner. I know I’ve made mistakes. Please forgive me of my sin and take me to Heaven when I die. Please tear down the wall that separates me and You. I’m trusting you as my only way to Heaven. Thank you, Jesus. Amen!
