One day you are going to stand before Jesus Christ and give an account of your life to Him, WHETHER YOU BELIEVE IT OR NOT. Because of this, I suggest that you read this message all the way through, it could save your life!
We live in a world that has no time or thought for God, and yet one day we will all stand before Him and be judged. We live only for today, pleasing ourselves with what we do, with no thought whatsoever of where we will SPEND ETERNITY! We forget that SIN must be punished, and that is the reason why God sent His Son into the world...
So who is Jesus Christ and why did He come to earth?
Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of God! He left heaven, and the presence of His Father, to come and die in your place and my place! But Why? The Bible tells us that we are all sinners "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." There is none righteous, no not one. "David who was one of the greatest kings of all Israel said 'Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me."
Sin has to be punished by a Holy God. Jesus came to save us from our sins, and from the punishment of God because he loves us. He did this by taking our sin upon Himself, and allowing Himself to be crucified, bearing all the suffering, judgement and wrath of God His Father in our place! The Bible says "...without the shedding of blood there is no remission (pardon & forgiveness)" He shed His own blood so that we can have our sins forgiven. "But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us" For he hath made him (Jesus) to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him."
Three day's after His crucifixion He arose from the dead, and is now seated at the right hand of His Father in Heaven.
This is how much Jesus Christ loves you, He died in your place and took your punishment for your sins!! "Greater love hath no man than this, that he lay down his life for his friends." "But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him. All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him (Jesus) the iniquity of us all."
"And as it is appointed unto man once to die, but after this the judgement." Can you imagine what this day will be like? Nothing will be hid, every secret sin will be laid open before the Lord, not one sin will go unpunished!
The only way to escape the wrath and judgement of God, and to gain a place in heaven is by asking Jesus Christ to forgive your sins. It is by believing, in faith, that He became the perfect sacrifice for all sin. There is no other way of being saved and having your sins forgiven, religion can't save you, living a 'good' life can't save you, IT IS ONLY THE BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST THAT CAN SAVE YOU! "Jesus said, I am the way, the truth, and the life, no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." "In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins."
WARNING...
If you die without having your sins forgiven, you will go to Hell forever & ever! (FACT!)
This is written out of love, because, THIS IS THE TRUTH!
PLEASE UNDERSTAND HOW IMPORTANT THIS IS! SOON, MAY BE TOO LATE!
"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)
