" ALL THIS I DID FOR YOU ! "

 

I CAME. . . .because of your sin.
"This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that CHRIST JESUS came into the world to save sinners;"   (1st.Timothy 1:15a)
"As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:"    (Romans 3:10)
"For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of GOD;"  (Romans 3:23)

I DIED. . . .to pay for your sin.
"But GOD commendeth HIS love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, CHRIST died for us. Much more then, being now justified by HIS blood, we shall be saved from wrath through HIM."  (Romans 5:8-9)
"But HE was wounded for our transgressions, HE was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon HIM; and with HIS stripes we are healed."    (Isaiah 53:5)
"In WHOM we have redemption through HIS blood, even the forgiveness of sins:"    (Colossians 1:14)
"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)

I AROSE. . . .to keep you saved eternally.
"And this is the record, that GOD hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in HIS SON."     (1st.John 5:11)
"Wherefore HE is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto GOD by HIM, seeing HE ever liveth to make intercession for them."     (Hebrews 7:25)
"MY sheep hear MY voice, and I know them, and they follow ME: and I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of MY hand."      (John 10:27-28)

YOU MUST REPENT. . . .Repentance is a turning to GOD from your sin, admitting you are guilty and that you cannot do anything to save or help save yourself. 
"I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish."    (Luke 13:3)
"Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and HE will have mercy upon him; and to our GOD, for HE will abundantly pardon. For MY thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways MY ways, saith the LORD."    (Isaiah 55:7-8)
"Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to HIS mercy HE saved us,"     (Titus 3:5a)
"But to him that worketh not, but believeth on HIM that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness."      (Romans 4:5)

YOU MUST TRUST. . . .putting your complete faith in JESUS CHRIST to save you.
"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)
"HE staggered not at the promise of GOD through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to GOD; and being fully persuaded that, what HE had promised, HE was able also to perform."    (Romans 4:20-21)
"To declare, I say, at this time HIS righteousness: that HE might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in JESUS. . .Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the Law."    (Romans 3:26,28)

You may ask, "How can I receive GOD's forgiveness and promise of eternal life ?"

Acknowledge that you are a sinner, "for all have sinned, and come short of the glory of GOD" (Romans 3:23)

Believe that the LORD JESUS died for you, for "CHRIST died for our sins according to the Scriptures" (1st.Corinthians 15:3)

Call upon the LORD to save you, whosoever shall call upon the name of the LORD shall be saved" (Romans 10:13)

If you would be willing to turn to CHRIST in repentance and faith, pray this simple prayer or one like it:

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.

WHAT IS YOUR DECISION ?

____  I choose to trust JESUS as my personal SAVIOR.
"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)

____  I choose to reject JESUS and keep my way.
". . .But he that believes not is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten SON of GOD."    (John 3:18b)
"And whosoever was not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the Lake of Fire."    (Revelation 20:15)

JESUS said, ". . .BEHOLD, NOW is the accepted time; BEHOLD, NOW is the day of salvation."    (2nd.Corinthians 6:2b)  Yes, today IS the day of salvation. No one is promised any more time than the very moment they are in. Receive CHRIST's forgiveness today !
Your servant in CHRIST,
Julie
