How To Get To Heaven When You Die

edited May 2012 in Social Entropy++
ARE YOU 100% SURE THAT IF YOU DIED TODAY THAT YOU WOULD GO TO HEAVEN?

There are some things that you should know:

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:"

This all began with the story of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. God created them perfect. There was no death or sorrow. God told them not to eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. They disobeyed God and as a result, sin entered into the world. The pain which this world sees is the result of sin.

2. Because of our sins, we die both spiritually and physically, but God sent His Son to die so that you can have a chance not to have to go to hell by accepting what He did on the cross for you:

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 demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. for us."

Every person who has ever lived is a sinner and is not righteous because we do bad things. A sin is a crime against God, just as if you steal something at the store, it is punishable by going to jail. It's the same thing with sin. Even if we lie one time, the punishment is hell, which is a prison for those who commit crimes against God. That’s because you must be perfect in order to get to heaven. 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. If you commit a crime, and then live as a good citizen you still will go to jail for the crime you committed, Right? 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.

3. If you will Admit to Jesus Christ that you are a sinner and in need of a Savior, Believe in your heart that He died on the cross and rose from the dead and Accept Him as your Lord and Savior and you will be forgiven and taken to heaven to be with Him when you die.

Joh 1:12 “But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name”

Ro 10:9,10 "that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.."

You cannot get to heaven by being a good person, going to church, baptism or any other way other than by turning to Jesus and asking Him to forgive you for your sins and 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?

ARE YOU WILLING TO TURN TO JESUS CHRIST FOR SALVATION?

4. If you believe God with all of your Heart, then place your Faith in Jesus Christ alone for salvation, Believing that He died on the Cross and Rose from the Dead for your sins, the Bible says that you are Saved. Are you willing to do that today?

Pray this to God from your heart:

"Dear Lord Jesus, I believe that You died on the Cross and Rose from the dead for my sins. I ask you to come into my heart and forgive me for my sins, save me, take me to be with You when I die. I now receive You as my Lord and Savior. Thank You for saving me. In Jesus holy name, Amen."

If you’ve just placed your Faith in Jesus Christ to save you, then you are a Saved Christian. As a saved Christian, you should be Baptized and attend a Bible Believing Church. The Baptism as an act of Obedience to Christ and the Church will help you grow in your faith in Christ.

    It's not about good or bad. It's about whether you are willing to turn to Christ Jesus for salvation, believing that He died on the cross and rose from the dead for your sins.

    I'm here to discuss this with everyone here. I'd like to show evidence to all those here as to why I believe this way. I trust in Jesus Christ by Faith, but it's backed up by the evidence and logic.

    I'm not merely calling you a sinner. This isn't personal toward you. The Bible says that everyone is a sinner, that includes me as well. The point isn't to come here and call you a sinner. The point is that there is good news that Jesus Christ died for your sins and all you have to do is place your faith in Him, believing that He died on the cross and rose from the dead to be saved. He wants to forgive all of us so that we can go to heaven. It's not a judgmental thing here.

    Do you believe in the pope? Because if you don't you are a heretic like all the others.
    Catholicism is the only true faith.

    I believe in The Lord, the God of the Bible and I trust His word, the Bible to guide me. I don't place my faith in a man. All men are sinners, including the pope himself. I'm sure he's a good man and all, but only Jesus came and lived a perfect life.

    All I did was refuse to repost a swear word. I didn't censor the point of it.
