Have you ever wondered where you would go after you die? The answer is found in the person of Jesus Christ. The Bible says in John 3:16, “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.”
Friend, the simple truth is that God loves you so much that He became man to die in your place. Now the question is, Why would God have to die for you? The answer is again found in the Bible. Romans 3:23 says, “For all have sinned…” which simply means that nobody is perfect.
Romans 6:23a says, “The wages of sin is death…” which simply tells you and me that we have a BIG problem. Because of our sinfulness, or imperfections, we fall short of what it takes to get into Heaven, and we are separated from God. In other words, there is no way we can get to heaven on our own! For this reason, God became man (Jesus Christ) and completely paid off your sins when He died on the cross. Three days later, He rose again from the dead to prove that He was God and that He can give you eternal life in heaven.
Romans 6:23b says, “…but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Through His death and resurrection, Jesus has purchased eternal life for you! Friend, your eternal destination depends on whether you confess to God that you are a sinner and accept God’s free gift of salvation.
Romans 10:13 says, “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” Simply put, if you will admit your sin and personally ask Jesus Christ to save you and give you His gift of eternal life, He will! Why don’t you make this simple, but most important decision right now? It makes all the difference in the world…and in eternity!
