| GOD in mercy sent His Son
To a world by sin undone;
Jesus Christ was crucified ---
'Twas for sinners Jesus died.
All who in His name believe,
Everlasting life receive;
Lord of all is Jesus now;
Every knee to Him must bow.
|
"Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father."
Philippians 2:9-11.
Everyone will, at one time or another, bow the knee to Jesus, and acknowledge Him as Lord. While you still have breath in you, you can acknowledge Jesus, right now, as your personal Lord and Saviour. If you believe that Jesus bled and died on Calvary's cross to pay the price for your sins, you have the assurance of spending all of eternity with Him in Heaven. However, if you deny Him now, and die in your sins, you will stand before Him at the Great White Throne of Judgement. "And as it is appointed unto man once to die, and after this the judgement." Hebrews 9:27.
If you stand before God without having received Jesus, without being cleansed by His blood, you are not seen as cleansed and righteous in God's eyes, you are still in your sins. There is no amount of good works that can pay the debt for your sins. Your name is not written in the book of life unless you have believed on Jesus while you were yet alive.
"Then I saw a great white throne and Him who was seated on it. The earth and the heavens fled from His presence, and there was no place for them. And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Another book was opened, which is the book of life. The dead were judged according to what they had done as recorded in the books... Anyone whose name was not found written in the book of life was thrown into the lake of fire."
Revelation 20:11,12,15.
In spite of what what people may say or think, God's word is very clear; there is only one way to Heaven. Do not be deceived, because "There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death." Proverbs 14:12.
"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast." Ephesians 2:8,9.
"And anyone who believes in God's Son has eternal life. Anyone who doesn't obey the Son will never experience eternal life but remains under God's angry judgment."
John 3:36 (NLT)
"Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." John 14:6.
John 3:36 (NLT)
"Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." John 14:6.
Please don't neglect the free gift of salvation. Bow your knee to Jesus now, you will have a more abundant, peaceful, joyful life now, and have the assurance of spending all of eternity in Heaven with our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ!
