Decisions, Decisions, Decisions…
You know that we all make important decisions in our lives such as where to go to school, who to marry, where to work and where we will live. However, the most important decision you will ever make will impact where you spend eternity. What is the question that you must answer? It is simply – Who is Jesus to You?
The answer to this question will determine how you live and what you believe. You can choose to believe and spend eternity in heaven or you can refuse to believe and spend eternity in hell. Jesus tells us in John 3:36 NLT
“And anyone who believes in God’s Son has eternal life. Anyone who doesn’t obey the Son will never experience eternal life but remains under God’s angry judgment.”
Below are some simple truths that we hope will help you understand Jesus and what He has done for you:
- You were created by God and you have value (Psalm 139:13-16)
- God wants a personal relationship with you (John 17:3)
- God loves you (John 3:16)
- Sin separates us from God (James 4:17; 1 John 3:4)
- We have all sinned (Romans 3:23)
- Sin leads to death (Romans 6:23 and Isaiah 59:2)
- JESUS is the only one that can help (John 14:6)
- JESUS took the penalty we deserve (1 Peter 3:18)
- We have to respond to His sacrifice (Romans 10:9 and John 1:12)
Do You Want To Know Jesus?
- If so, use your own words and let God know. Here is a sample of what to say: Dear God, I know that my sin separates me from you. I now understand that Jesus died in my place. I ask you to forgive me and I ask that your Son Jesus will come into my life and lead me from this day forward. Thank you for the promise of eternal life with you. In Jesus Name, Amen.
