According to God's Holy Bible, there is a place
called HEAVEN and a place called HELL. The Bible tells us that every person
will spend eternity in one of these places. God wants everyone to know the
way to HEAVEN. The following verses from the Bible point the way . . .
The Reality of Sin
The Bible tells us that "All have sinned,
and come short of the glory of God" (Rom. 3:23). This means that
ALL have fallen short of God's standard, and missed the goal. My friend,
this means, "There is none righteous, no not one . . . They are
all gone out of the way . . . there is none that doeth good; no not one"
(Rom. 3:10,12). The good deeds and self righteousness of man is in vain,
for God says, "All our righteousness is as filthy rags"
(Isaiah 64:6).
It is absolutely useless for a sinner
to depend upon his good works to make him acceptable in the sight of God.
"The scripture hath concluded ALL UNDER SIN" (Gal. 3:22).
"There is NO MAN that SINNETH NOT" (I Kings 8:46. "ALL
WE like sheep have gone astray; we have turned everyone to his own way"
(Isa. 53:6).
The Reason for Sin
You may be wondering why that every person is
a sinner. The Bible tells us, "By one man sin entered into the world"
(Rom. 5:12). That one man was the first man upon the earth and his name
was Adam. "In Adam all die" (I Cor. 15:22). We are all
descendants of Adam, and just as a physical likeness is passed down from
generation to generation, even so a moral likeness is passed down.
Therefore we are sinners by nature and
we are sinners by choice for "ALL HAVE SINNED" (Rom. 5:12).
"The wicked are estranged from the womb: they go astray as soon
as they be born" (Psa. 58:3)."The heart is deceitful above
all things, and desperately wicked" (Jer. 17:9). "By nature
(we were) the children of wrath" (Eph. 2:3).
The Result of Sin
Every sinner (unless he accepts the ONE true
remedy) will spend eternity separated from God, in a literal burning hell.
Please do not doubt the following verses from God's Word.
"The soul that sinneth, it shall
die" (Ezek. 18:4). "Sin,
when it is finished, bringeth forth death" (James 1:15). "The
wages of sin is death" (Rom. 6:23). "IF YE BELIEVE NOT
. . . ye shall die in your sins" (John 8:24). "The wicked
shall be turned into hell" (Psa. 9:17). "And whosoever
was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire"
(Rev. 20:15).
The Remedy for Sin
The remedy is NOT IN another HUMAN BEING: "Who
can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? not one . . . " "None
. . . can by any means redeem his brother" (Job 14:4; Psa. 49:7).
The remedy is NOT BY MONEY: "Ye (are) not redeemed with . . . silver
and gold" (I Peter 1:18). The remedy is NOT BY WORKS: "By
grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the
gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast" (Eph. 2:8,9).
"Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according
to his mercy he saved us" (Titus 3:5).
But the Remedy is Only Through
the Lord Jesus Christ
Do you feel guilty over your sins? Do you feel
sorrow for your sins? The Bible tells us that "godly sorrow worketh
repentance to salvation" (II Cor. 7:10). "God . . . commandeth
all men everywhere to repent" (Acts 17:30). A person who never
repents will be lost forever! "Repent . . . and be converted, that
your sins may be blotted out" (Acts 3:19). Repentance is more than
sorrow over sin, it is a change of mind. It involves turning from sin and
turning to the Lord Jesus Christ by faith. Roman">
Are you ready to turn to the Lord Jesus
Christ, the only true remedy for sin? He is the only one that can cleanse
you of sin and make you a child of god. "Behold the Lamb of God,
which taketh away the sin of the world" (John 1:29). "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).
Christ literally became our sin bearer,
as He took our place and died for our sins. "For he hath made him
(Christ) to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness
of God in him" (II Cor. 5:21). "Christ died for our sins"
(I Cor. 15:3). "Who His own self bare out sins in His own body on
the tree" (I Pet. 2:20).
Will you right now take your place as
a poor lost sinner and confess Jesus as your Saviour and Lord? "The
gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Rom.
6:23). "Jesus saith . . . I am the way, the truth, and the life:
NO MAN COMETH UNTO THE FATHER, BUT BY ME" (John 14:6). "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 believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession
is made unto salvation.. . For whosoever shall call upon the name
of the Lord shall be saved." (Rom. 10:9,10,13).
