The Answer to Life's Ultimate Question
In your personal opinion, what do you understand it takes for a person to go to heaven?
The Bible answers this question, it is a matter of F. A. I. T. H.
F IS FOR FORGIVENESS
We cannot have eternal life and heaven without God's forgiveness.
"In whom (meaning Jesus) we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins."
Ephesians 1:7
A IS FOR AVAILABLE Forgiveness is available. It is Available for ALL.
"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
But Not Automatic
"Not every one that says unto me; Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven."
Matthew 7:21
I IS FOR IMPOSSIBLE It is impossible for God to allow sin into Heaven. Why?
Because of who HE is:
God is loving and just. His judgment is against sin.
"For he shall have judgment without mercy."
James 2:13
Because of who WE are:
Every person is a sinner.
"For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God."
Romans 3:23
Question: But how can a sinful person enter heaven, where God allows no sin?
T IS FOR TURN to Turn means to REPENT
Turn from something - SIN and SELF
"Unless you repent you will all likewise perish."
Luke 13:3
Turn to Someone TRUST CHRIST ONLY
(The Bible tells us that) "Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; and that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures."
I Corinthians 15:3-4
"If thou shall confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shall believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved."
Romans 10:9
H IS FOR HEAVEN Heaven is eternal life.
Here:
"I am come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly."
John 10:10
Hereafter:
"And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto Myself; that where I am, there you may be also."
John 14:3
How?
How can a person have God's forgiveness, heaven, and eternal life, and Jesus as a personal Savior and Lord?
By TRUSTING Christ and asking Him for forgiveness.
If you have never trusted Him, will you do so now? Romans 10:13 says, "Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." If you will trust Him, I suggest you pray this simple prayer:
Dear Lord, I admit I'm a sinner. I do believe You died for me and arose from the grave to be my Savior. I do right now trust You to forgive my sins and save me. From this moment, I am full depending on You to take me to Heaven when I die. Thank You for paying my sin debt and receiving me as Your child. Amen.
