I KNOW SOMETHING SO WONDERFUL that I must tell you ! It is so vital that it may change your entire future as it did mine. In fact, the decision you make about it will affect you both in life and death.
Let me emphasize that this message is absolutely true, because GOD said it. When GOD makes a promise, you can rest upon it, because HIS promises can never fail. GOD will not make you believe this message, that is your choice, but HE will hold you responsible for having heard it.
It is a very personal message, something you must decide. Your must say either, "I will" or "I will not." Here is the message. It is an exact quotation from GOD's WORD, the Holy Bible.
"For GOD so loved the world, that HE gave HIS only begotten SON, that whosoever believeth in HIM should not perish, but have everlasting life." John 3:16.
Did you ever hear such wonderful words ? Think for a moment what they say. They reveal three marvelous facts.
[] First, "GOD so loved the world" ! Since you are in the world, HE loved you. If that doesn't astonish you, remember, that when GOD loved you, HE loved a sinner ! The Bible says, "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of GOD." (Romans 3:23). If you are honest, you will agree.
Although GOD loves you, HE still hates your sin. Since GOD is holy, HE must punish sin. HE must make a Holy way of saving sinners. Otherwise, the sinner must pay for his own sins, and that would mean spending eternity in a Devil's Hell. The Bible says, "And whosoever was not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the Lake of Fire." (Revelation 20:15).
[] The second great fact is, "HE gave HIS only begotten SON" ! GOD loved you so much, that HE sent HIS SON to Earth to become a man and die on the cross of Calvary, so that you might be saved. "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).
You see, someone must pay the penalty of sin, either you or a sinless substitute. GOD gave HIS SON, JESUS CHRIST, to be your sinless substitute. HE shed HIS blood so that your sins might be put away, so that you might have eternal life.
[] And now the third tremendous fact is, "Whosoever believeth in HIM should not perish, but have everlasting life"! Think of it ! GOD gives eternal life to those who believe in JESUS CHRIST. The SAVIOR has "finished" the work. HE has died. HE has risen from the grave, and HE has gone back into Heaven. Now your part is to believe in HIM. "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 whosoever shall call upon the name of the LORD shall be saved." (Romans 10:9,13).
To believe simply means that you must agree that you are a sinner, realize that CHRIST has paid the "full" penalty for your sins, and then receive HIM as your LORD and SAVIOR.
This is the message which I had to tell you. Now you must make a decision. Will you accept HIM, or reject HIM ? Will you believe on HIM, or refuse HIM ? Think of it once again:
"For GOD so loved the world, that HE gave HIS only begotten SON, that whosoever believeth in HIM should not perish, but have everlasting life." John 3:16.
Your time on Earth is so very short, but your decision for CHRIST lasts for eternity. Will you come to JESUS in repentance (turning to GOD from your sin) and faith; will you receive HIM as your LORD and SAVIOR, being confident of everlasting life ? If so, you can pray this simple prayer:
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.
JESUS said in John 5:24, "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that hears MY WORD, and believes on HIM that sent ME, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life."
Come to JESUS today. No one is promised any more time than the moment you are in.
Your servant in CHRIST,
Julie
