The "good news" of salvation is delivered here, but will you continue to read and hear it? Will you be among the few who listened and believed in the message?
or
Will you be among the thousands who rejected the message before even hearing it because of their loyalty to the teachings of their inherited faith?
Jesus is calling you now, but will you come?
Have you received Jesus as your Lord and Savior? Do you want to personally know Jesus Christ? Do you want to experience God's love? Do you want to receive God's grace?
"For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how 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" (1 Corinthians 15:3-4)
Salvation is a free gift from God bought and paid for by the blood of Jesus. There is no other way but only through Jesus Christ can anyone be saved. "…Do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness could be gained through the law, Christ died for nothing!" (Galatians 2:21). You cannot earn God's forgiveness and His free gift of salvation through good works. God is not foolish for he declared, "Although you wash yourself with soda and use an abundance of soap, the stain of your guilt is still before me, ..." (Jeremiah 2:22). How will doing good works make up for the countless times you have failed and sinned? If it is possible for us to be saved and go to Heaven by living a good and upright life, then Jesus died for nothing. The main reason that Jesus died on the cross is because we cannot do enough good works to get saved. There is NO amount of good deeds that can reconcile us to God. Only through Jesus Christ can anyone be saved.
Life is so short and God is so good. Do you accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior and turn from your sins?
