2006-07-29 - Destiny

Greetings in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ, my Friends,

Last week, we learned that according to one of God's days, it will only be twenty minutes or a blink of an eye to God when you die, and you enter either Heaven or Hell. Then I asked a couple of questions.

Which is your destiny? Is it Heaven or Hell, or are you not sure? If you are not sure what you destiny is, would you like to know for sure that you are going to go to Heaven? Let's start out by asking the following question.

In my present condition, am I prepared for Heaven?

The Bible says:

…All have sinned, and come short of the glory of God. – Romans 3:23 KJV

…All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all. – Isaiah 53:6 KJV

If I am a sinner, where am I going?

The Bible says:

...the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Christ our Lord. – Romans 6:23 KJV

…And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. – Revelation 20:15 KJV

What has God done to provide the way to Heaven for me?

The Bible says:

…God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. – Romans 5:8 KJV

…For God so loved the world, that he gave his only son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. – John 3:16 KJV

What must I do to get to Heaven?

The Bible says:

…That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God 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

…He came unto his own, and his own received him not. But as many as received him, to them gave he the power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name. John 1:11-12 KJV

So if it is your decision to receive Christ, you should make a confession in prayer to God as follows: "God I am a sinner, and I believe that the Lord Jesus Christ died for my sins on the cross and was raised for my justification. I do now receive and confess Him as my personal Savior."

How do I know I am on my way to Heaven?

The Bible Says:

…Verily, Verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. – John 5:24 KJV

…Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. – Romans 5:1 KJV

Peace and blessings in Christ, my Friends.
