May I ask you a question.
IF, you died tonight, do you have the assurance in your heart, that you would go to heaven.
—Preacher John.
“And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever.”
—ISAIAH 32:17 KING JAMES BIBLE. OLD TESTAMENT.
” Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.”
—HEBREW 10:22 KING JAMES BIBLE. NEW TESTAMENT.
ARE YOU BORN AGAIN?
YOUR ONLY ANSWER IS EITHER YES OR NO.
Jesus Stirs Things Up Sometimes
Yes, I realize that “JESUS CHRIST IS LORD” is a provocative statement, which some people hate. The phrase is found in the Holy Bible. Now, before you pass judgement on me, slowly read the following scriptures. For the authority of this statement comes from God, not man. And I’m glad of that! Aren’t you?
“Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.”
—1 CORINTHIANS 12:3 KJV.
“And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.”
—PHILIPPIANS 2:11 KJV.
Call Is A Repentant Cry From The Heart
This may seem very simple and elementary, it’s a cry from your heart, like a child shouting or crying for their mother after they’ve fallen, or they’ve done something wrong and they’re very sorry for it. A mother always hears the cry of their child, even in the noise! Thus, God will always hear your cry.
“And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
—ACTS 2:21 KJV.
Have Peace With God Because God Loves
The most famous scripture in the world! This is true charity, real love in action.
“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 KJV.
Simple Prayers Are Sometimes The Best
Look at this simple prayer, like the thief on the cross next to Jesus, when the thief said Lord remember me… And then look at my simple prayer of salvation…
“And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom. And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.”
—LUKE 23:42-43 KJV.
“Jesus, if you’re real, here I am.”
—JOHN CHOQUE. My salvation prayer, about May 1974, 20 years old.
Wise Unto Salvation
Did you answer the question I wrote at the top of this page? Do you know for sure that you would go to heaven? Just to be very clear: If you are not saved when you die, you will land in hell; then to judgment; then cast into the lake of fire; as per Revelation 20:15 KJV. Do you understand that this will be for eternity? Do you further understand that God is giving you a call for salvation NOW?
“And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.” Romans 13:11 KJV.
“For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ, Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.” 1 Thessalonians 5:9-10 KJV.
“And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.”
—2 Timothy 3:15 KJV.
Where Does Scripture Come From
Some people may think that the HOLY BIBLE is just a book written as a novel, and thus really has no meaning to it whatsoever, other than an old work of literature. I do not agree, nor concur!
“All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.”
—2 Timothy 3:16-17 KJV.
The Word Of Faith, Which We Preach
This is a simple act of faith, however due to corruption, this simple message can be overlooked and disbelieved. But don’t let other people sway your personal decision to receive salvation. Jesus Christ died for you…
“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 with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.”
—Romans 10:9-10 KJV.
“And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.”
—Acts 8:37 KJV.
“JESUS, IF YOU’RE REAL, HERE I AM.”
“And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
—ACTS 2:21 KJV.
NEW TESTAMENT
“And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be delivered:”
—JOEL 2:32 KJV.
OLD TESTAMENT
“And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.”
—MATTHEW 1:21 KJV.
NEW TESTAMENT
—WARNING—
This is the most important decision of your life. You receive eternal life by receiving Jesus Christ as your Lord and only Saviour.
“The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.”
(The thief is Satan, the devil. I am is Jesus Christ, the Son of God. -my words in italics to clarify.)
—JOHN 10:10 KJV.
“I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:”
—DEUTERONOMY 30:19 KJV.
“And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.”
—JOSHUA 24:15 KJV.
The chose and decision is yours… NOT God’s
Going to heaven is NOT automatic, just because you think you are a good person or a spiritual person. I also need to say that, happiness and gratitude will NOT get you to heaven. And other religions, will NOT get you to heaven. God has a specific plan just for you… and that plan is receiving JESUS CHRIST, the SON OF GOD, as your LORD and only SAVIOUR.
—FOREWARNED—
Now Pray Something Like This — Use Your Words
“God, I believe in my heart that Jesus is your Son and that he died for me and you raised him from the dead. According to your word, if I believe on him I shall be saved. I repent my sins and I receive you Jesus into my heart right now and make you my Lord and Saviour. Father, thank you for making me your child and giving me eternal life. In Jesus’ name. Amen.”
—Prayer Written by the late Angelo Mitropoulos
Maybe This Video Message Might Help — It’s From Chick Publications
Here’s possibly a different way of ‘touching people for heaven.’ This may be a unique way to look at God’s Plan of Salvation! It’s a Chick Publications Production video cut from their movie, “The Light of the World.” —Chick.com
