The Bible says that you must believe in Jesus to make it to heaven,
but what does the word "believe" really mean?
(John 3:16)
Jesus said, "...Unless a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom
of God."
(John 3:3)
The Apostle Peter preached, "Repent ye therefore, and be converted,
that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall
come from the presence of the Lord."
(Acts 3:19)
The Apostle Paul wrote, "...if any man be in Christ, he is a new
creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become
new."
(2 Corinthians 5:17)
These scriptures give
the clue to the meaning of the word "believe."
Christ wants you to experience Him by inviting Him into your heart.
(Revelation 3:20).
This acceptance of Christ is what is truly meant
by the word "believe". When Christ comes into your heart
He gives
meaning to your life, peace in your heart, and a conscience free of
guilt.
(Philippians 4:7)
This "acceptance of Christ" is what makes you and I a
"believer in Christ" and gives you the knowledge and
assurance of going to heaven.
(John 11:25; 1 John 5:13)
Have you accepted Christ into your heart and life?
Jesus Said, "He that is not with me is against me".
(Matthew 12:30)
"...He that believeth not the Son shall not see life: but the wrath
of God abideth on him."
(John 3:36)
Paul said, "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of
God."
(Romans 3:23)
If you have not yet chosen Jesus Christ as your personal saviour and are going through hard times in your life right now perhaps God is using these difficulties to draw you to himself. God loves you and wants to help you through your hard times. God wants to deliver you from fear and torment. If you will give Him your entire heart He will set you entirely free.
This is how to accept him:
(1) realize you are a sinner
(2) know that Jesus Christ is the only one who can save you
(3) be sorry for your sins and cast yourself upon His mercy and
grace, and
(4) repent of your sins and ask Jesus Christ to come and live in your
heart.
He will forgive you of your sins, comfort you, come to live in
your heart, and give you a new heart. Please make this decision now
for
NOW IS THE DAY OF SALVATION.
