What Must I Do To Be Saved?
Jesus
said, "For God
so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that
whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting
life."
(John 3:16)
Do you know
for certain that you will go to heaven when you die?
This is a very important question that everyone must answer.
Life's ultimate statistic is the same for all of us: 1-out-of-1
dies.
The problem
is everyone of us is a sinner. And the penalty for our
sin is eternal separation from God in a literal place of
torment
called hell. No matter
how
good we are or how good we try to be, no amount of good
works can
ever
overcome our sin problem. That is because entrance into
heaven requires perfect righteousness.
But God, who
is rich in mercy, has given us an indescribable gift.
God
provided
for
our
salvation when He sent His Son, Jesus,
to die in our place on the cross. When Jesus died
and rose again He
paid
the penalty for our sin.
Today,
all who trust Jesus, the Son of God, and
Him alone, to forgive their sins and give them the
free gift of eternal life will be saved. Jesus said, "Most
assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me has
everlasting life." (Jn
6:47)
Let
me encourage you, right now, in the best way you know
how, to trust in
what Jesus has done on the cross for you as being all you
will ever need to take away your sins and assure you a
place in heaven.
