Some people THINK that
going to Heaven consist
of:
* Keeping the
Ten Commandments
* Doing Good
Works
* Living a Good
Life
* Church
Membership
* Tithing or
Giving to a Church
* Water Baptism
* Trying to Be a
Better Person
All of these make
sense, but these
actions, activities and
good works are not
requirements for eternal
life.
The Bible says,
"Not by works of
righteousness which we
have done, but according
to His mercy He saved
us" (Titus
3:5).
There is nothing more
wonderful in life than
discovering God's plan
for eternal life.
Discover the facts for
yourself, and you can
KNOW for certain that
you will spend eternity
with God.
THE FREENESS OF HEAVEN.
The Bibles says,
"... The gift of God is
eternal life through
Jesus Christ our Lord"
(Romans 6:23).
"For by grace are ye
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).
There is not one thing
you can do to earn a
place in Heaven. It is
free! You can do
nothing to earn eternal
life. It is faith in
the Lord Jesus Christ
alone that will get you
to Heaven.
THE PROBLEM
OF SIN.
The Bible says,
"For all have sinned,
and come short of the
glory of God" (Romans
3:23). We all fall short
of God's perfect
standard.
"For the wages of sin is
death..." (Romans
6:23). We deserve death
and Hell.
THE CURE
FOR SIN IS JESUS
CHRIST.
The Bible records
John the
Baptist introducing
Jesus to the world when
he said, "...Behold the
Lamb of God , which
taketh away the sin of
the world."
"Christ died for our
sins... and that He rose
again on the third
day..." (I
Corinthians 15:3,4).
"But God commendeth His
Love toward us, in
that, while we were yet
sinners, Christ died for
us" (Romans
5:8).
"For He (God) hath made
Him (Christ) to be sin
for us, who knew no
sin; that we might be
made the righteousness
of God in Him" (II
Corinthians 5:21).
"But to him that worketh
not, but believeth on
Him that justifieth the
ungodly his faith is
counted for
righteousness" (Romans
4:5).
Jesus Christ, the
God-Man (John 1) has
removed the barrier of
sin. His death paid the
penalty for our sins and
His resurrection made
eternal life possible.
FAITH
ALONE IN
CHRIST ALONE.
The Bible says,
"Believe on the Lord
Jesus Christ, and thou
shalt be saved" (Acts
16:31).
"For God so loved the
world
(you),
that He gave His only
begotten Son, that
whosoever
______________________
your name
BELIEVETH IN HIM (Jesus
Christ)
should not perish, but
have
everlasting life"
(John 3:16).
If you can put your name
in the blank space
above, on the authority
of God's word, you can
KNOW you have eternal
life.
"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).
"Verily, verily. I say
unto you, He that
believeth on Me hath
everlasting life" (John
6:47).
SALVATION
IS ETERNAL.
The Bible says,
"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).
Doesn't it make sense to
believe on the One who
came back from the dead
and trust Him for
eternal life? Will you
accept God's way and
receive God's gift of
eternal life?
If you, having read
this, trusted in Jesus
Christ for eternal life,

rejoice in what God has
done in your life and
help you to grow
spiritually.
