Are You 100% sure when YOU die YOU are going to Heaven??? |

|
4 Things YOU need to Know |
|||||
|
|
|||||
 |
1.
Everyone Is a Sinner |
||||
|
|
|||||
|
Romans 3:23, "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." |
|||||
|
We fall short of God's Glory and His Righteousness because ALL have sinned. Me and You. Sin doesn't have to be capital crime, even a small lie or evil thoughts the Bible says is Sin. The first step is admitting to yourself, that you have indeed, sinned against God.

2. Everyone Owes a Sin Debt |
||||
|
|||||
| The Bible tells us
of God's hatred of sin and that He MUST punish for it. This
punishment is what is called 'the second death'. You see, we are all
going to die, this is the first death, the second death is being cast into
the Lake of Fire for the Penalty you must pay, forever and ever. Revelation 20:14-15,” And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death, And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.”
You must realize if you were to die right now, this would be the wage God will require, from you. |

3. Jesus Has Paid the Debt For YOU |
||||
|
Romans 6:23, "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” |
|||||
|
The Gospel of Jesus Christ through the Bible is called, “His Gift” to us, and that is because Jesus Christ is the only means for us ‘the ungodly’ to be right in God’s eyes. You see, Jesus Christ PAID on the Cross the penalty for the sins of those who believe, that means if you put your trust in Him, your debt has been paid, but you must receive this gift with your heart, as a ‘Gift’ from God. Not by doing good works or making new resolutions but only and simply believing with all confidence in Him. John 3:16, “For God so loved the world that He gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believeth on him, shall not perish but have everlasting life.” |
|||||
|
|
4. Repent and Trust |
||||
|
I John 1:9, “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness” Romans 10:9, “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and believe in thine heart that God has raised him up from the dead, thou shalt be saved.” To Repent means 'to turn' from one thing and 'to turn' to another completely and whole heartily. In repenting we turn from our sins, ask God to forgive us and turn in Faith to Christ believing and trusting He will forgive us. How can God do that? Because of Jesus Christ payment on the Cross and His success of doing so is evident because of His resurrection on the 3rd Day. |

|
What do I do Now? |
||||
|
Humbly Pray to God: 1. Admit to Him you’ve sinned. 2. Believe Christ died FOR YOU. 3. Ask God to forgive you of your sins 4. Believe that He has Promised to Save you. If you have prayed to God to forgive you and save you, trust in Him that He has. Desire to lead a life that’s pleasing to Him according to the Bible. |
