Jesus
came that you may have life and have it more abundantly!
|
| |
John 10:10 The
thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to
destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that
they might have [it] more abundantly. |
You can have
this life!
|
| |
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. |
What keeps you
from this life? Sin keeps you from fellowship with God.
|
| |
Romans 3:23 For
all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; |
| |
Romans 6:23
For the wages of sin [is] death; but the gift of God [is]
eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. |
How can you
obtain this eternal life? This life is made possible by
Christ's death and resurrection.
|
| |
Romans 5:8 But
God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were
yet sinners, Christ died for us. |
| |
Ephesians 1:7 In
whom we have redemption through his blood, the
forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his
grace; |
| |
1 Corinthians 15:3-6 For
I delivered unto you first of all that which I also
received, how that Christ died for our sins according to
the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose
again the third day according to the scriptures: And that
he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he
was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; ... |
Jesus Christ is
the ONLY way to God and eternal life.
|
| |
John 14:6 Jesus
saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no
man cometh unto the Father, but by me. |
Do you receive
eternal life by simply believing facts? No!
|
| |
James 2:19 Thou
believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the
devils also believe, and tremble. |
Do you receive
eternal life by being a good person? No!
|
| |
Ephesians 2:8-9 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. |
You receive
eternal life when you repent (turn) from your sins and
accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior.
|
| |
John 1:12 But as
many as received him, to them gave he power to become the
sons of God, [even] to them that believe on his name: |
You must:
|
| 1. Admit you are a
sinner: |
| |
Romans 3:23 For
all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; |
| |
1 John 1:10 If
we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and
his word is not in us. |
| 2. Repent from your
sins: |
| |
Acts 3:19 Repent
ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be
blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from
the presence of the Lord; |
| |
Acts 17:30 And
the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now
commandeth all men every where to repent: |
| 3. Confess and Believe
that Jesus Christ died for you, was buried and rose from
the dead: |
| |
Romans 10:9-10 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. For with the heart
man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth
confession is made unto salvation. |
| |
Romans 10:13 For
whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be
saved. |
| 4. Do it now! |
| |
2 Corinthians 6:2b behold,
now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of
salvation. |
If you have any questions or wish to
know more about God and the life he has for you please get
in touch with a local Bible believing church. Be sure to
find a church where the Bible is taught as the complete
Word of God and is the final authority.
|
| |
Hebrews 10:25 Not
forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the
manner of some [is]; but exhorting [one another]: and so
much the more, as you see the day approaching. |
