Here is life's most important question: If you were to die tonight, do you know for sure whether or not you will go to heaven? The Bible was written that you might know that you know that you know that you know the answer to this important question.
Your life is of tremendous value
Your worth to God is derived from the fact that you are made in His image.
"So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them." (Genesis 1:27 NIV)
The Problem ...
Unfortunately all of us as human beings have sinned against and offended God.
"All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God," (Romans 3:23 NIV)
Because of sin we deserve eternal punishment.
The Solution ...
God loves you very much and has come to pay the price for your sin.
"Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures" (1 Corinthians 15:3-4 NIV)
As a matter of fact, the following Bible verse explains simply why Jesus came.
"Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners." (1 Timothy 1:15 NIV)
His desire is to save you from an eternal punishment into an eternal friendship with Him.
Your Response ...
You can invite Jesus Christ into your heart and life right now.
"...if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved." (Romans 10:9 NIV)
A Simple Prayer
If you want to receive Jesus Christ as your Lord and receive the gift of salvation you can talk to God right now and receive this wonderful gift, it's a matter of repenting of your sins, and turning the rest of your life over to Him.
Pray something like this ...
"Heavenly Father, I know that I have broken your laws and my sins have separated me from you. I am truly sorry, and now I want to turn away from my past sinful life toward you. Please forgive me, and help me avoid sinning again. I believe that your son, Jesus Christ died for my sins, was resurrected from the dead, is alive, and hears my prayer. I invite you Lord Jesus to become the Lord of my life, to rule and reign in my heart from this day forward. Please fill me with Your Holy Spirit and help me to obey You, and to do Your will for the rest of my life. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen."
"Repent and be baptised, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit." (Acts 2:38 NIV)
