And as it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment, (Hebrews 9:27)
Whether you like it or not, death will come to you. You will leave this life and never come back. You will stand before God to be judged. Do you know where will God have you to spend eternity? If you don't, you cannot have real peace. After reading this message, you will be able to know where you will spend eternity.
ALL HAVE SINNED
Sin is the number one problem of the human race. According to the Bible:
For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, (Romans 3:23)
As it is written: "There is none righteous, no, not one" (Romans 3:10)
If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. (1John 1:8)
THE WAGES OF SIN
You will pay for your sins.
What is the payment for your sins? According to the Bible:
For the wages of sin is death...(Rom 6:23)
Physical Death - Separation of the soul from the body
Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned (Rom 5:12)
Spiritual Death - Separation of man from God because of sin
But your iniquities have separated you from your God; And your sins have hidden His face from you, So that He will not hear. (Isaiah 59:2)
having their understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God, because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart; (Ephesians 4:18)
Second and Eternal Death - Eternal separation of man from God
But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death." (Rev 21:8)
YOU CAN DO NOTHING TO SAVE YOUR SELF
If you think you can do something to save your self, you will be disappointed for the Bible says:
..."Who then can be saved?" But Jesus looked at them and said to them, "With men this is impossible..." (Matthew 19:25-26)
For whoever shall keep the whole law, and yet stumble in one point, he is guilty of all. (James 2:10)
GOD LOVES YOU SO MUCH
God sees your hopelessness. He loves you and He has mercy on you. So He made a way for you to be saved. God's way is the only way for you to be saved. What is this only way for you to be saved? The Bible says:
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)
But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. (Romans 5:8)
But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes we are healed. (Isaiah 53:5)
Yes, my friend. Jesus was punished and died because of your sins. That's how much He loves you. He is the only way for you to be saved.
YOU HAVE TO MAKE A DECISION
Reading this message won't save you. You have to make a definite decision.
What decision do you have to make? The Bible says:
Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me. (Revelation 3:20)
But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name: (John 1:12)
Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. (Matthew 11:28)
Yes, my friend. You have to open your heart to Christ and receive Him as your Lord and Savior. He will never cast you out.
All that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will by no means cast out. (John 6:37).
"Lord Jesus, Have mercy on me, a sinner. Forgive me of all my sins. I can do nothing to save my self. You are my only Hope. You are the Son of God who died on the cross to pay for the penalty of my sins. I heard your voice and I open my heart to you. Come in to my heart, Lord Jesus, for I receive you now as my Lord and Savior. Make me what you want me to be. This I pray in your precious name. Amen."
Is this what you desire in your heart to tell the Lord right now? Then pause for a moment and tell it to Jesus with all your heart. He is listening.

My friend, if you received Jesus in your heart after reading this gospel message, He is telling you right now:
Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me has everlasting life. (John 6:47).
My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand. (John 10:27-28)
And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. (1John 5:11-12)
For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. (Ephesians 2:8-9)
It is clear from God's Word that eternal salvation is guaranteed to those who truly received Christ as their Lord and Savior.
When was the time you told Jesus Christ to come in to your heart and be your Lord and Savior? I am not asking if you have a religion, I am not asking if you always pray, I am not asking if you go to church, I am not asking if you partake of the communion, I am not asking if you have been baptized. What I am asking is did you personally ask Jesus Christ to come in to your life and be your Lord and Savior.
If you have not yet made that major decision, please do it now before it is too late.
