HAVE YOU EVER WONDERED...
Is there a God? Who was Jesus really? Can I be certain I'll go to heaven? Am I good enough?
IN THE BEGINNING...
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth, and the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
In the beginning the Word already existed. The Word was with God, and the Word was God. He existed in the beginning with God. God created everything through him, and nothing was created except through him. The Word gave life to everything that was created, and his life brought light to everyone. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness can never extinguish it.
Genesis 1, John 1
THE LAMB OF GOD WHO TAKES AWAY THE SINS OF THE WORLD
Immanuel - God with us
He came into the very world he created, but the world didn’t recognize him. He came to his own people, and even they rejected him. But to all who believed him and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God. They are reborn—not with a physical birth resulting from human passion or plan, but a birth that comes from God. So the Word became human and made his home among us. He was full of unfailing love and faithfulness. And we have seen his glory, the glory of the Father’s one and only Son.
(John 1:10-14)
BUT HOW CAN I KNOW THIS IS ALL TRUE?
It's kind of like adventuring across this bridge for the first time...you didn't create the bridge, you don't know if its trustworthy, but oh that light...and so you go for it
Heres the scoop. Nobody comes to Jesus unless the Spirit of God draws Him - for you don't choose Jesus, He chooses you. God is so grand, so good, and so compassionate that He reaches out. And if you seek - truly seek - you will find. You'll know you've found it because your eyes will be opened and you will feel love like you've never known possible. You've really nothing to lose!
SALVATION
believe, repent and be baptized for the redemption of your soul
If you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. Romans 10:9-10
"Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him." - Jesus, John 3:36
And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved. Acts 4:12
