Have you ever told a lie? Have you ever stolen anything? Jesus said, “But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.” (Matthew 5:28) Ever look with lust? If you answered “Yes” to these questions, by your own admission you are a lying, thieving, adulterer at heart. These are only three of the Ten Commandments... God’s moral law. If God will use his moral law to determine your innocence or guilt measured against his perfect and holy standard on Judgment Day… and he will, using his Son, Jesus Christ... will you be innocent or guilty? You should know that God created a real place called Hell that he reserved to punish Satan (the devil) and all who follow him in rebellion and disobedience. You will be guilty and your punishment is eternity in Hell! That is not God’s will for you! “Even so it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish.” (Matthew 18:14) He provided a way for you to be forgiven by sending His Son to take your punishment! “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” (Romans 5:8) God raised Jesus from the dead, allowing him to defeat death once and for all who believe. God promises you eternal life if you believe, putting your faith and trust in Jesus Christ, confessing your sins to Him, then repenting (turning away from) your sins. “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 3:19) You can know, without doubt, that you have eternal life in Heaven if you believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, that he suffered and died to pay the penalty for your sins, and that God raised him from the dead. “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 10:9) This may sound too easy, like it’s a free gift… IT IS! “But not as the offense, so also is the free gift. For if through the offense of one many be dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many.” (Romans 5:15) Do this today, RIGHT NOW… you might not have tomorrow. Then get a Bible, read it everyday and obey what you read. You can absolutely trust God’s word and all of his promises! God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.” (1Corinthians 1:9) |

“God promises you eternal life if you believe, putting your faith and trust in Jesus Christ, confessing your sins to Him, then repenting (turning away from) your sins.”
I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.

Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us; we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God.
(2 Corinthians 5:20) |

It is an absolute proven fact that you will die. Think about this… no matter what you do or what you try to prolong your life or prevent your death, YOU WILL DIE.
God made death to punish sin against him. |
