Have you ever wondered about life and
if..... there really is a life after
death? Maybe there isn't
But what if there is?
You CAN KNOW you are going to
Heaven!
This site is not sponsored by any church or religious
organization. If you don't KNOW that you are going to Heaven, there is a good
chance that you are not.
Just some thoughts for your
consideration.
IF!
- If Heaven is real and hell is real, (maybe they're not)
but IF they are real, is it worth the chance that you might spend an Eternity
in hell?
- If you could KNOW that you
were going to Heaven would you want to?
- Is there someone you know or care about that you would not
want to go to hell, IF hell IS real?
Here is how
you can KNOW you are going to Heaven.
First let me tell you where I am coming from.
(see if you can relate.) All my life I was told..."Don,
if you do this you are going to hell, if you do that you are
going to hell, if you don't do this you are going to hell, if you
don't do that you are going to hell" I figured I was going to
hell anyway, so why not just live it up and when I die and go to hell all my
friends will be there anyway... so we will just air condition the place and
skate around on the
ice.
I
was LIED To!
|
I was told that
things like this"
"If you commit Suicide" you won't go to
Heaven If you don't obey your parents If I didn't go to church
If I.... If I..... If I.......... Can you relate? |
Let's put away our Religious Heads for just a
moment.. And just Reason it out. "This is
TOO important!" |
1st ~ Realize that Heaven is not a reward
and Hell is not a punishment. They are places.
2nd ~ You
don't have to be good to go to Heaven...."You have to be PERFECT"
3rd ~
Don't
worry, you are not perfect, but God has a way. (Keep reading
and you will see.)
4th ~ "THINK" let's REASON... Forget Religion for
a Moment.
Ask yourself this question.
"How MANY sins did
Christ pay for when He died on the cross?" Focus on the phrase.."How Many" |
. The Bible says He paid for
"ALL" sin. (Past, Present and Future) Ok. If He
paid for "ALL" sin and if we accept that
payment.... How many are left for us to pay
for?
And if ALL our of our
sins have been paid for then we can go to Heaven, not because we deserve it but
because the price was paid for us when Jesus died on the cross.
|
"SIN!", Now that's is a
good word.
What is
Sin Anyway?
Most of us would say, I
don't sin or I'm not that bad. Or what gives you the right to call me a
sinner? God says sin is anything we do the would cause us to ..."MISS
THE MARK!" In this case... the MARK is perfection.
The Bible says in Romans 6:23 "The wages (or
payment) for sin is Death." THINK! ...If there
was sin in Heaven, then there would be death in Heaven.
Now, I know you
are not perfect, no one is or was or will be except for JESUS.
That is
why Jesus died on the cross... To pay for all of
OUR sins, not His. |
Too Simple?
Sorry, I didn't make the rules. It's God's ball
game and He made the rules. So it doesn't matter if you are Rich, Poor,
Black, White, Tall, Short, Baptist, Catholic, Presbyterian, etc.
You can't earn your way to Heaven. It is a FREE gift.
You don't work and try to be good to get to Heaven, you try
because you ARE going to Heaven. You will do more out of love than out of
fear. When I first heard this I ask the following
question..." Do you mean to
tell me that if I believe that Jesus died on the cross for all MY sins, I can
live as I please and still go to Heaven?"
| Listen to the answer I got. It changed my life. |
If he had said....
"No, you must do this or that or stop this or
that." I would have turned away and just gone on with life. BUT he
said...
"Son,
that's a crude way to put it....But God loved you that much."
Yes, I am going to Heaven because of what Jesus did for me when He died
on the cross. I now have the rights of a Son, but God now has the rights and
responsibility of a Father to instruct and discipline. But His punishment will
not be to kick me out. He loves me, and He loves you.
Look up the following verses in the
Bible:
- Romans 3:23..."For all have sinned and come short of the glory of
God"
("ALL" includes you and me.)
- Romans 6:23..."For the wages (payment) of sin is death."
("Death", separation from God for Eternity.)
- II Corinthians 5:21...
"For HE
(God) has made Him (Jesus) to be sin for us who knew no sin, that we might be
made the righteousness of God in Him."
(The
perfection Righteousness we need to go to heaven is
GIVEN to us by God because of what Jesus did.)
- Ephesians 2:8, 9... "For by grace (God's mercy) are we saved
through faith, and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God,
"NOT OF WORKS"
lest any man should boast."
(You cannot earn your salvation by either doing something or NOT doing
something.)
- I John 5:13...
"These things have I written unto you that believe on the
name of the Son of God, that you may KNOW that ye have ETERNAL
life..."
|
You see.... "God sent not His Son into this world to condemn the world, but
that the world through Him might be saved."... (John 3:17)
"Still Not
Sure?" Look at this
Time~Line
John 6:47 says: "Most assuredly I say unto
you, he that believeth on Me HAS EVERLASTING Life"

Look again at the 'Time~Line'
above.
| 1st. |
Jesus died on the cross about 2000 years
ago.
|
| 2nd. |
Today, If you believe the fact that Jesus died on the
cross for all of your sins, then
the moment you believe God promises to give you Eternal
life.
|
| 3rd. |
If you are given Eternal life
Today, then you would have it tomorrow,
next week, next year and at the time of your death.
|
| 4th. |
If there were anything, again I stress 'ANYTHING'
you could do to lose it.....it wouldn't be Eternal. |
Question? How long is
"Everlasting?" It
means forever. NOT just for a little while.
Think If you could lose it, it
wouldn't be Everlasting. It would be temporary or life until you sinned again.
Also When does it say we
HAVE this Everlasting Life? ANSWER: "When we
believe" |
Look at the verse
again.. "...he that believeth on me, HAS, (possesses right now) Everlasting Life."
That is forever! Period! |
|
I didn't
say that..... Jesus did!
Man...., I have no axe to grind. I don't make any
money by you considering this. I'm going to be in Heaven no matter
what you do. But, even though I don't know you, I had
to share with you something that I found out.
Ask yourself....."What do you have to
lose." If it's not true...Then nothing matters
anyway.
Want to KNOW you are going to Heaven? Then pray
something like this:
"Father I don't know
it all," (no one does) "But the best I know how, I accept the payment that
Jesus made for me when He died on the cross. Thank you for loving me and giving
your Son to die in my place. I now confess to you that Jesus is Lord and that
He died and rose again. I invite you into my life and ask you to help me become
what you would have me to be. In the name of Jesus I pray this prayer.
"
|
If you prayed that prayer and
meant it, on the authority of God's word,\...... you will be in Heaven.
Now thank him for what He has done.

Hope this starts you thinking.

Bless. Hell may not be real....BUT
