What if today were your last day on Earth?
Are you ready to die?
The Bible teaches clearly that a person can KNOW how to get to heaven!
1 John 5:13 “These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.”
Going to heaven is not secured by being a church member, partaking of Lord’s Supper, doing good deeds, being religious, trying to do your best, being baptized; many have done these things yet have no assurance of getting to heaven. Though these things are taught in the Bible and have their place in the Christian life, they are not for salvation.
The Bible teaches that to go to heaven we have to deal with the sin problem.
We must realize and agree with God regarding the following:
1. The Fact of our sin.
Romans 3:23 “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;”
2. The Consequence or Penalty for our sin.
i) Death: Romans 6:23 “For the wages of sin is death…”
ii) Judgment: Hebrews 9:27 “And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:”
Revelation 20:15 “And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.”
iii) Hell: Luke 16:23 “And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments…”
Revelation 21:8 “But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone…”
3. The Payment for sin.
i) Christ’s Substitutionary Death
Romans 5:8 “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.”
ii) Christ’s Atoning Blood
Ephesians 1:7 “In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;”
1 John 1:7 “…the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.”
iii) Christ's Resurrection
Roman 6:9 “Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him.”
1 Corinthians 15:1 “Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; v2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. v3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; v4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:”
4. How to Receive Christ.
i) Repentance
Matthew 9:13 “…for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.”
Luke 13:3 “I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.”
Acts 17:30 “And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:”
ii) Faith
Acts 20:21 “Testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.”
Ephesians 2:8 “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:”
Acts 16:30 “And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? v31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.”
Romans 10:9-13 “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. v10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. v11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. v12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. v13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
Right now turn from your ways to the Lord and trust Him. Sincerely call on the Lord like millions of others have, “Dear Lord Jesus, I believe you died upon the cross for me and rose again. I ask you now to please forgive me of my sins. I trust you now as my Saviour and to take me to heaven when I die. Thank you Lord for saving me.”
