JUST FOR YOU
Firstly I want to say that you didn't
come to this page by accident its for a reason you came to this page. Please
read the full page. I made this page because I care about you.
I want to ask you some questions if you are willing. Just answer them HONESTLY
to your self and read through this page.
Firstly would you consider yourself to be a good person and are good enough to
go to heaven? the way to test if you are a good person is to look at the 10
commandments in the following questions.
Have you ever lied ? are you guilty or innocent of lying even just once? what
does it make a person who lies? A liar right?
Have you ever stolen something ?are you guilty or innocent of stealing? what
does it make a person who steals? A thief right?
Have you ever committed adultery? Jesus said that even if you have looked at a
person with lust [wanted them for yourself] you are committing adultery in your
heart.
Have you ever committed murder? Jesus said that even if you hate your brother or
sister you are committing murder in your heart.
Have you ever used Gods name in vain [used his name as a replacement for a cuss
word or with a cuss word]? That's called blaspheming.
Have you ever failed to
put God first in your life? [loved others or your stuff more than God] That's
called an Idol.
Those are just some of the commandments ,So are you guilty or innocent of all those things??
9Don't you know that those who do wrong will have no share in the Kingdom of God?
Don't fool yourselves. Those who indulge in sexual sin, who are idol worshipers,
adulterers, male prostitutes, homosexuals, 10 thieves, greedy people, drunkards,
abusers, and swindlers – none of these will have a share in the Kingdom of
God.1 Corinthians 6:9,10[NLT]
15Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.1 John 3:15[NKJV]
28But I say, anyone who even looks at a woman with lust in his eye has already committed adultery with her in his heart. Matthew 5:28[NLT]
7"Do not misuse the name of the LORD your God. The LORD will not let you go unpunished if you misuse his name. Exodus 20:7[NLT]
Did you also know that God has set a day when he will judge ALL man kind
[nonbelievers and believers alike] everyone will have to stand before the
creator of the universe and give an account of your life. Since you have broken
his law [the 10 commandments] the verdict is Hell because he is not only a God
of love but also of justice. If that scares you which it
should don't stop reading the GOOD NEWS is next!
10For we must all stand before Christ to be judged. We will each receive whatever
we deserve for the good or evil we have done in our bodies.2 Corinthians 5 :10[NLT]
Lets say your mother was sick and dieing and the only thing to cure her was a
special type of medicine that you can get a your local Wal-Mart. Your mother ran
out of the stuff and now is dieing rapidly. So you grab as much money as you can
find since money has been tight trying to keep up with paying your mothers
doctor bills. You run to your local Wal-Mart, you find the medicine and go to
pay for it. You get to the counter and it is more than what you have collected
so in a panic you just run out of the store while the person at the registry is
screaming you didn't pay for it come back. She calls the cop. There happens to
be a cop already in the parking lot goes up to you and arrests you for
shoplifting. You try to explain that your mother is dieing and needs that
medicine that ,that is the only money you have. Now you cant get back home to
give it to her because your in jail. You tell the judge what happened and there
are some other people in the room listening. He says im sorry but you broke the
law and you have to pay the fine. Someone who was in the room goes up to the
judge and asks how much the fine is ,writes a check and hands it to the judge.
You are now set to go free your fine has been paid in full.
you might be wondering where I'm going with this let me explain....
When Adam and eve sinned in the garden it broke their open relationship they had
with God. Since we are all ancestors to Adam we are ALL born with sin
[sinful nature] and fallen short of Gods glory. Since sin separates us from God,
the punishment is eternal death [Hell]. God the father knew the fine for breaking his law [sinning] is eternal death
[Hell]. Although the price for sin is Hell, God made the way for us to
not go to hell because he doesn't want you in hell,
he loves you. God became a man in the person of Jesus Christ [the image of the
invisible God, Gods Son,100% man 100% God] came to earth and died a prisoners
death on the cross for your sins ,not only your sins but the sins of the
whole world; past present and future, then rose again on the third day. By
Rising again on the third day, its the evidence that he is who he said he was. He paid
the fine of sin In
Full so that we could have a relationship back with him and not go to
hell. Sacrifices were used to
show forgiveness of sin but no animal or man can save from sin, only the sinless
spotless Lamb Of God [one of Jesus' other names] can because he's Lord! You have to respond to his gift of
forgiveness because he loves us unconditionally and gives us a choice to accept
him or reject him; Responding is done by knowing you are a
sinner and need forgiveness of sin, Confess your sins to him and turn away from your sins and to God(trusting God to help you); receiving him as your savior
[the prayer, acknowledge that he is Lord God], Believe that Jesus Died on the cross ;paid your sin in full then God raised him from the dead on the third day. The words you say is not what God looks at ,he looks at the
sincerity of your heart. If you now understand that you aren't a good person
[doing thing to earn your way to heaven, not committing some of his
commandments sometimes] in the eyes
of God , that you are a sinner and in need of a savior ,willing to put your
trust in Jesus then pray a prayer like the one below or the prayer below.
Please don't think about it later , there might not be a later!
The prayer is a commitment you are making with God to receive
forgiveness of sins and have eternal life. Christianity is
a life long process ,a relationship with the creator who made you and the
universe. People think its a religion because they don't know what really
happened at the cross, Jesus was giving us the relationship back that was stolen
from us from the beginning when Adam and eve disobeyed the Lord and ate the fruit.
all we have to do is respond to what he did through faith and enjoy the new relationship with
our creator and friend.
" The Sinners Prayer"
Dear Lord,
I know that I'm a sinner and I'm sorry I have sinned please forgive me.
Please come into my heart ,I
accept you as my savior.
I know you sacrificed your only son to save the world and then raised
him from the dead on the third day. I invite you to help me learn daily how I'm
to live. Please help me to be more like Jesus. Thank you for your everlasting
love ,mercy and kindness.
In Jesus name I pray amen
Congrats!!!
If you just prayed the sinners prayer and meant it with all your heart you are
now a child of God congrats and welcome to the family! Please email me I would
love to know that you came to the Lord though this page. If you don't know where
to go from here or still have questions. I would suggest that you start with
reading the word of God [the bible] and probably start with the four gospels
[John ,Luke, Matthew, Mark] but start with John. I would also seek a good church
that has the center of worship on Jesus. Christian music helps remind us of the
love God has for us, But most important is to pray if you don't know something
ask the one that knows all, Lord. If you truly want to know something that
doesn't make sense etc then just pray about it and let lord know ,ask him to
reveal what you want to know to you.
I also made more pages to help you they are bible verse, links and what to start
with after you received Christ. If you need to talk to someone there is always
me [just email me [healing_rain@earthlink.net] or IM me [aim: inarmswithchrist,
Yahoo: inchristsarms4ever], and other Christians that have been through lots
that can help you. Don't be afraid to ask questions and never give up! No one is
perfect except for the Lord, we wont be until we meet at his feet. You will grow
as a Christian if you read the bible daily and seek him in everything you do
through prayer. I hope this page as been a blessing to you! xoxox
God Bless! Your sister in Christ , Jen
