“God
in
Heaven,
I
acknowledge
that
I
have
sinned
and
am
in
need
of
forgiveness.
Today,
with
Your
help,
I
turn
from
my
sin
and
my
old
life.
I
confess
Jesus
Christ
is
Lord
and
I
make
Him
the
Lord
of
my
life
today.
I
believe
with
all
of
my
heart
that
He
carried
my
sin
and
died
for
me
so I
could
have
eternal
life.
I
also
believe
that
after
having
died,
You
raised
Him
up
and
now
He
is
alive
forevermore.
I
thank
you
that
by
faith,
I am
a
child
of
yours
today.
I
believe
that
today
I
receive
eternal
life
by
faith
and
not
by
works,
in
the
Name
of
Jesus,
I
pray,
Amen.” |

Here's what you need to
know if you are going to
Heaven |
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
If
you
are
a
person
sincerely
seeking
for
Truth,
you
MUST
consider
the
Bible! |
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The
Bible
is
unlike
any
other
book
that
has
been
written
throughout
history.
It
is
unique
and
different
from
all
other
books.
Any
rational
and
honest
person
in
search
of
knowing
the
Truth,
is
obligated
to
consider
searching
the
Bible
for
answers
to
life’s
questions. |

|
|
|
|

|

The
Ultimate
Question
To
Life
is
what
happens
when
we
Die?
There
is
something
in
each
of
us
that
needs
to
know
the
answer
to
this
question.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
 |
Unfortunately,
many
people
come
to
the
wrong
conclusions
by
believing
the
wrong
sources.
The
Bible,
inspired
by
Almighty
God,
is
the
ONLY
source
of
Truth
which
reveals
to
us
what
happens
when
we
die. |

What
Does
the
Bible
say
happens
to
us
when
we
die? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
What
happens
to a
person
when
they
die,
depends
upon
their
relationship
with
God
while
they
are
alive.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

Sin
has
separated
all
of
mankind
from
a
relationship
with
God.
Jesus
came
to
be a
bridge
to
bring
God
and
man
back
together
again. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The
Bible
teaches
us
that
all
those
who
receive
Jesus
Christ
as
their
Lord
and
Savior
receive
Eternal
Life.
Jesus
said
as
is
recorded
in
John
14:6;
“...I
am
the
way,
the
truth,
and
the
life.
No
one
comes
to
the
Father
except
through
Me.”
Jesus
also
said
in
John
3:14-16;
“And
as
Moses
lifted
up
the
serpent
in
the
wilderness,
even
so
must
the
Son
of
Man
be
lifted
up,
that
WHOEVER
believes
in
Him
should
not
PERISH
but
have
ETERNAL
LIFE.
For
God
so
loved
the
world
that
He
gave
His
only
begotten
Son,
that
whoever
believes
in
Him
should
not
PERISH
but
have
EVERLASTING
LIFE.”
(Capitalization
mine).
From
this
passage,
and
many
others,
we
see
that
the
choice
as
to
what
happens
to
us
when
we
die
is
either;
|
 |
Don’t
believe
and
Perish!
(or)
|
 |
Believe
and
have
Eternal
Life!! |
|
|
In
Luke
16:19-31,
Jesus
made
it
clear
that
the
unbeliever
would
spend
eternity
in a
place
of
torment
called
“Hell”,
and
the
believer
would
spend
eternity
in a
place
of
comfort
and
rest,
also
known
as
“Heaven”.

We
want
to
encourage
you
today
to
“believe”
on
the
Lord
Jesus
Christ
with
ALL
OF
YOUR
HEART!
To
truly
believe
means
you
turn
your
back
on
your
old
lifestyle
and
you
make
Him
Lord
of
your
life. |

Mankind
is
separated
from
God
and
that
we
are
all
sinners
due
to a
fallen
nature
inherited
through
Adam.
(Isaiah
59:1.2:
Romans
5:12) |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

There
are
NO
EXCEPTIONS,
all
people
have
sinned
and
have
fallen
short.
(Romans
3:23) |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

The
wages
of
sin
is
eternal
death
or
separation
from
God.
(Romans
6:23) |

|

|
|
|
|
 |
The
eternal
destination
of
all
mankind
if
they
do
not
receive
God’s
plan
of
salvation
is a
place
of
torment
called
HELL
and
the
LAKE
OF
FIRE.

16:19-31;
Revelation

GOD
LOVES
YOU
SO
MUCH,
that
He
sent
His
Son,
Jesus
Christ,
to
carry
your
sin
and
the
punishment
for
it
so
that
you
could
have
eternal
life.
(John
3:16;
II
Corinthians
5:21,
Romans
5:8,9)
Only
God
could
carry
the
sins
of
all
humanity,
and
only
Man
could
shed
His
blood
and
die,
so
Jesus
was
and
is
the
God-Man.
God
became
flesh
and
dwelled
among
us.
(John
1:1.

Jesus
Christ
died
physically
on
the
cross
and
became
spiritually
separated
from
God
the
Father
as
our
substitute.
(Ephesians
2:13-19)
|
|
|
He
became
what
we
were
on
the
cross
so
we
could
experience
a
relationship
with
God
and
be
forgiven
of
all
sin.
(Mathew
27:36;
II
Corinthians
5:21;
Ephesians
1:7) |

We
receive
salvation
by
accepting
what
Jesus
Christ
has
done
for
us
BY
FAITH
AND
NOT
BY
WORKS!
(Romans
3:21-28) |

|
|
|
|
|

YOU
CAN
NOT
BE
SAVED
FROM
HELL
AND
GO
TO
HEAVEN
BY
YOUR
GOOD
WORKS!!
YOU
CAN
ONLY
BE
SAVED
FROM
HELL
AND
GO
TO
HEAVEN
BY
PLACING
FAITH
IN
THE
GRACE
OF
GOD
WHO
PROVIDED
SALVATION
THROUGH
JESUS
CHRIST!
(Ephesians
2:8-10). |

What
must
you
do
to
be
saved
from
sin
and
hell
and
go
to
heaven?
|
|
|
a.)
Make
a
decision
that
with
God’s
help
you
will
turn
from
your
old
life
and
live
for
Him.
(Acts
2:38;
Acts
3:19)
(called
“repentance”)
|
|
|
b.)
Confess
and
agree
that
Jesus
Christ
is
Lord.
This
means
you
make
Him
the
Lord
of
your
life.
(Romans
10:9)
|
|
|
c.)
Believe
with
all
of
your
heart
that
God
raised
Jesus
from
the
dead
after
He
had
carried
your
sin
and
shed
His
blood
for
you.

10:9,10) |
