The Truth About Eternity

Have you ever wondered where you would go after you die? The answer is found in the person of Jesus Christ. The Bible says in John 3:16, "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."

Friend, the simple truth is that God loves you so much that He became a man so that He could die in your place. Now the question is, why would God have to die for you? The answer is again found in the Bible. Romans 3:23 says, "For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God."  This simply means that nobody is perfect.

Romans 6:23a says, "The wages of sin is death…" which is simply telling you and me that we have a BIG problem. Because of our sinfulness, or imperfections, we fall short of what it takes to get into Heaven, and we are separated from God for eternity in a place the Bible calls hell (Luke 16:23). In other words, there is no way we can get to Heaven on our own! For this reason, God became man (Jesus Christ) and completely paid for your sins when He died on the cross. Three days later, He rose again from the dead, proving that He was God, and making a way for us to have eternal life.

Romans 6:23b says, "…but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Through His death (Romans 5:8) and resurrection, Jesus has purchased eternal life for you! Friend, whether or not you spend eternity in Heaven depends on whether or not you will confess to God that you are a sinner and place your faith in Him, accepting His free gift of salvation. Romans 10:9 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.”

Romans 10:13 says, "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." Simply put, if you will personally ask Jesus Christ to save you and place your faith in Him (Ephesians 2:8-9), He will give you His gift of eternal life! Why don’t you make this simple decision right now? It makes all the difference in the world… and in eternity.

Call on the Lord now… "Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner and that I deserve eternal punishment in hell. I accept Your payment for my sin on the cross and place my faith in You. I accept your gift of eternal life. Thank you for saving me from hell, thank you for the gift of eternal life. Amen."
