Bible way to Heaven
Do you know 100 percent for sure that if you died today, you would go to heaven? The Bible tells us you can know. There are five simple things you need to understand in order to know for sure you will go to heaven when you die:
You Can Know!1. In 1 John 5:13, the Bible tells us,
"These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God."
By God's own admission, you can know that you have eternal life, a place in heaven reserved for you, and your sins forgiven forever.
Understand Your Condition.
2. The Bible says in Romans 3:23:
"For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;"
In other words, we are all sinners. Every one of us has done something that God says we are not supposed to do, or not done something God says we should do.
Understand The Penalty for Sin.
3. In Romans 5:12, the Bible tells us,
"Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:"
The Bible is more specific in Revelation 21:8:
"But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death."
Every one of us is subject to God's penalty for our sins: death. However, this death is not an ordinary one.
The Bible says in Revelation 20:14:
"And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death."
The penalty of our sins is the second death...death in the lake of fire (hell).
BUT, the story does not end here. God does not want anyone to die and go to hell, and He made a way out.
Believe Jesus is the Son of God Who Died for You.
4. In John 3:16, the Bible says,
"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."
God sent His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, into the world for one purpose: to pay the penalty for your sins. He lived a perfect life, shed His blood and died on the Cross, was buried, and rose again from the dead three days later. JESUS CHRIST has paid the eternal payment of your sins for you. You don't have to die and go to hell. You have a choice.
And, the best part...
Romans 6:23b:
"but the gift of God [is] eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."
Salvation (going to heaven, having your sins eternally forgiven) is God's FREE GIFT to you. If you are willing to receive it, God is more than willing to give it to you.
Trust Jesus Christ Alone for Salvation.
5. Receiving God's gift of salvation is easy. The Bible says in Romans 10:13,
"For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."
Jesus will come into your heart and life, forgive you of all your sins (past, present, and future), and give you a place in heaven forever, if you will just ask Him.
If you want Jesus Christ to save you and give you a place in heaven when you die, then pray to Jesus right now, admitting that you are a sinner and that you trust Him alone to save you and take you to heaven when you die. If you are unsure as to what to say, let us help you word a prayer:
"Dear God, I know I am a sinner. But right now, I accept Jesus Christ into my heart to save me and take me to heaven when I die. I'm trusting you, Jesus, and only You, and nothing I can do. Thank you for saving me. In Jesus' name, Amen."If you received Jesus Christ as your Saviour through reading this gospel presentation, we would like to rejoice with you. Call us at 618.337.1376 or
