" The ONLY Doorway "

 

JESUS IS THE DOOR TO HEAVEN.

JESUS is the door. . . HE said in John 10:9, "I AM the door: by ME if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture." JESUS is the way. . . "I AM the WAY, the TRUTH, and the LIFE: no man comes unto the FATHER, but by ME." (John 14:6).

JESUS IS THE ONLY DOORWAY TO HEAVEN.

My Friend, let me ask you a most important question. Are you trying to enter Heaven some other way than through the way JESUS provided ? If you are, JESUS said you are a thief and a robber. "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that enters not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbs up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber." (John 10:1).

There is no other way to get to Heaven. Religion is not the way ! The preacher or priest is not the way ! Water baptism is not the way ! Church membership is not the way ! Being born to Christian parents is not the way ! Being a moral person is not the way ! Doing good works is not the way !

The Bible states in Acts 4:12, "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under Heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved." There is nothing you can do to earn salvation or your way into Heaven. "But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags;" (Isaiah 64:6a). Only by receiving JESUS CHRIST as your personal SAVIOR can you enter into Heaven.

"Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the Gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received and wherein ye stand; by which also ye are saved, . . . For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that CHRIST died for our sins according to the Scriptures; and that HE was buried, and that HE rose again the third day according to the Scriptures:" (1st.Corinthians 15:1-2a,3-4).

JESUS said in Mark 1:15, ". . .repent ye, and believe the Gospel." Believing the Gospel is believing ". . .that CHRIST died for our sins according to the Scriptures; And that HE was buried, and that HE rose again the third day according to the Scriptures:" (1st.Corinthians 15:3,4). JESUS died on the cross, was buried, and was resurrected by the power of GOD for our salvation. "For GOD so loved the world, that HE gave HIS only begotten SON, that whosoever believes in HIM should not perish, but have everlasting life." (John 3:16).

HOW CAN YOU ENTER THE DOOR ?

You enter the door by asking JESUS to come into your heart and save you. "But as many as received HIM, to them gave HE power to become the sons of GOD, even to them that believe on HIS name:" (John 1:12). The Bible states, "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. For with the heart man believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. . .For whosoever shall call upon the name of the LORD shall be saved." (Romans 10:9-10,13).

Don't let the Devil deceive you by making you believe there is some other way. The Bible says that the Devil ". . .is a liar, and the father of it." (John 8:44b). Eternal salvation is a free gift to all who will simply receive JESUS CHRIST into their heart. "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of GOD: Now of works, lest any man should boast." (Ephesians 2:8,9).

My Friend, if you want to be sure that you are saved and Heaven will be your home, pray this simple prayer or one like it, with all your heart:

LORD, I know that I am a sinner, and I believe YOU died and rose again for me. I am trusting YOU to forgive me, come into my heart and save me. Help me to live for YOU always. In JESUS' name I pray, AMEN.

The Bible says in John 3:36, "He that believes on the SON has everlasting life: and he that believes not the SON shall not see life; but the wrath of GOD abides on him." PLEASE don't reject the Gospel ! TRUST CHRIST today !

Your servant in CHRIST,
