ARE YOU 100% SURE THAT IF YOU DIED TODAY THAT YOU WOULD GO TO HEAVEN?

1.  REALIZE THAT YOU ARE A SINNER AND IN NEED OF A SAVIOR:

Ro 3:23 "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;"

Ro 3:10 "As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:"

Every person who has ever lived is a sinner and is not richeous because
we do bad things.

A sin is a crime against God, just as if you steal something at the
store is punishable by going to jail.  Even if we lie one time, the
punishment is hell, which is eternal separation from God.  No matter
how well you live your life from then on, you have already committed a
sin which will be punished if you are not pardoned.  Just as if you
commit a crime, and then live as a good citizen you still will go to
jail for the crime you committed.  Just as the president can pardon a
crime so you won't go to jail, Jesus can pardon your sins so that you
do not go to hell, and can go to heaven when you die.

2. BECAUSE OF OUR SINS, WE DIE BOTH SPIRITUALLY AND PHYSICALLY, BUT GOD
SENT HIS SON TO TAKE OUR PUNISHMENT AND GIVE US A CHANCE NOT TO HAVE TO
GO TO HELL.

Ro 6:23 "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal
life through Jesus Christ our Lord."

Ro 5:8 "But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were
yet sinners, Christ died for us."

3.  WE MUST CONFESS JESUS CHRIST AS OUR SAVIOR WITH OUR MOUTHS AND
BELIEVE IN OUR HEARTS THAT HE ROSE FROM THE DEAD, BY DOING THIS WE ARE
RECEIVING HIM:

Ro 10:9,10  "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus,
and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath 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."

Joh 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become
the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: {power: or, the
right, or, privilege}
(KJV)

You cannot get to heaven by being a good person, going to church can't
get you there, you can only get to heaven by turning to Jesus and
asking Him to Save you.  While these are good things to do, some people
believe that they will get to heaven if they do these things, but the
bible says that there is only one way to heaven and that is through
receiving what Jesus christ did on the cross for you.

Will you do that today?  If you will, you can be 100% sure that you
will go to heaven when you die.

DO YOU BELIEVE THAT JESUS CHRIST DIED ON THE CROSS AND ROSE FROM THE
DEAD FOR YOUR SINS?  DO YOU ACCEPT WHAT HE DID FOR YOU TO PAY FOR YOUR
SINS?

4.  If you are willing to receive Jesus Christ as your Savior please
pray this from your heart to God,

"Dear LORD JESUS, I believe that YOU died on the Cross and Rose from
the dead for my sins.  I realize that I cannot get to heaven any other
way other than to trust YOU as my SAVIOR.  I ask you to forgive me for
my sins and take me to heaven when I die.  I receive YOU as my Lord and
SAVIOR.  Thank You for Saving me in JESUS name amen"

If you prayed that prayer from your heart to God, and meant it with all
of your heart, you are now a child of God and will go to heaven when
you die.

Now that you are on your way to heaven, you should attend a bible
believing church and follow in baptism.
