2 IMPORTANT INTRODUCTION God Has Blessings In One Hand - Curses In The Other Hand And He Lets You Make The Choice Are You Looking For Truth Or Simply Justification For The Way You Live Now? You ll spend 4 hours per day living in fantasy, watching TV, movies, playing on the internet, but we can t give God as little as 30 minutes to see what HE has to say about who I am and what I am supposed to be doing here. Are You A Hit-And-Run Person? Are you one who will only tolerate the full explanation of life in a 60 second message or less. Too long! Too long! I can t be bothered! If so, move on now. This is not for you. Finding God and the meaning of life is a lifetime endeavor. It merely begins here with a short 30 minute read. Sure You re Afraid Most of us don t want to know what God wants from us. We might be doing it wrong. We take driving lessons to learn how to drive a vehicle - but it also shows us how to keep from getting killed or injured doing it. Most people think that chasing pleasure, pride and position is what life is all about, but shortly end up disillusioned, discouraged and depressed. We did not make ourselves. We are not our own. We were made by God and are here to do something HE sent us here to do. HE gave us talents, abilities and gifts to do HIS work. In finding who we are and what our job is, we find our true peace, joy and fulfillment in life. But, there are severe penalties for doing it wrong. This short 30 minute read will show you the way God wants you to go, and some of the problems you might be living with right now because you are going your own way. Find HIS way, and you find your peace, joy and fulfillment in life. Look At Your Hand That s right. Hold out your hand in front of your face, wiggle your fingers and look at your hand. Did you make it? Did you put the veins, muscles, nerves, skin, tendons and bones in it, then link it to your brain so it could perform wondrous tasks? NO! You had nothing to do with the creation of your hand or any part of your body! God made you and only HE knows what your purpose is. And 99.9% of us, simply ignore God and do things our own way! They that live with indifference toward God, play the fool. There Are Forces That Do Not Want You To Read This God s truth gives you knowledge, freedom and power. There are forces in this world that will do anything to keep you from reading and understanding what you will read here to keep you in bondage. Fight your way through this little book even if it is difficult.

3 Most People Think Heaven Is Their Birthright First and foremost, the biggest problem that keeps most people from finding God is we think we are already there, know it all and are living the right way! We all feel that we are born with a free ticket to Heaven. We believe that Heaven is our right, our predetermined destination and - the only thing that could possibly keep us out of Heaven is a huge error, a major sin like murder that might kick us off our perfect and straight path to Heaven. But even then, no need to worry because we all know that God forgives us our sins. RIGHT? We think, God won't send me to Hell no matter what because I am a good person and he loves me. I live a good life in a good country. I am protected and safe. I am comfortable with who I am, what I do and I just feel that my eternal dwelling place in Heaven is secure. You Would Be Wrong. The Scales Of Good Vs. Bad Others would say, Hey, I believe in the scales thing. As long as I do a little more good stuff than bad stuff, I'm covered! I m a good person. I work hard, pay my taxes, take care of my family and don t cause any trouble well not much. God would not throw me into Hell. How could God even justify such a move? And in all of our own, little, selfcentered minds, we all believe we are good and doing most everything right. Each and every one of us always sees our scale tilting a little more to the good side than the bad side and we all think, feel and hope that we will make it to Heaven doing what WE think is right. We are sure that we are safe and secure But You Would Be Very Wrong. Fun Now - Worry Later And then, there are those who know exactly what to do to stay out of Hell, but decided that they would rather wait. They want to have their fun right now and take care of Heavenly things later, when they get older, just before they die.

4 You know the problem! You never know when you are going to die. You are gambling with your eternity. (If you are doing this, BE SURE to read Page 18 before you go.) If You Think Like Any Of These, You Are Deceived You have no idea who God is, what HE requires of you, who you are or why you are here and most likely - you don't care to find out. You are happy with your life, controlled completely by yourself, without interference from God. You live for food, drink, sex, pleasure, pride, position, possessions, ease and comfort. Your destination is Hell but you know it not. You are living in the unforgivable sin. Don t Get Mad At Me Please I m Trying To Help You Let Me Prove It To You... Chances are, you probably are in the midst of committing the unforgivable sin right now. But it s not too late. Please keep reading! The Bible says it best in Proverbs 14:12 NIV 12 There is a way that seems right to a man, but in the end it leads to death. (All scripture Quotes In GREEN) How Lost Are You? To quit reading this right now is a pretty good indication that you might be in trouble. You are too busy doing things your way and you just don't care or want to know any other way. You think that if you ignore God s ways, HE won't hold you accountable for them. WRONG! You are accountable right now. You just don't know it. If, However, you have anything left in you where you feel the pull of God, even this very moment, if your heart is not completely crusted over with hardened, rusted iron and your conscience still has a flicker of light within it, and you keep reading this, there might still be hope for you. If you are seeking at all, for the truth about God, Heaven and Hell, you will be satisfied upon reading this. Truth Is The Fragrance Of Life To Those Who Are Being Saved - But The Stench Of Death To Those Who Are Perishing If there is still hope for your salvation, you will find hope and excitement in reading this. If you think this is foolishness and the dumbest thing you have ever read, you are already feeling the heat of the flames of Hell on the back of your neck but know it not.

5 Could The Following Statement Be The Thoughts Of Today s Average Human Being Straight Out Of The Word Of God? Luke 12:19-21 NIV 19And I'll say to myself, " Take life easy; eat, drink and be merry." 20"But God said to him, 'You fool! This very night your life will be demanded from you. Then who will get what you have prepared for yourself?' 21"This is how it will be with anyone who stores up things for himself but is not rich toward God. Proverbs 28:26 NIV 26He who trusts in himself is a fool, but he who walks in wisdom is kept safe. Proverbs 11:28 NIV 28Whoever trusts in his riches will fall, but the righteous will thrive like a green leaf. Proverbs 14:32 NIV 32When calamity comes, the wicked are brought down, but even in death the righteous have a refuge. Who Are The Wicked? Who Are The Righteous? The Answer Will Surprise You (Keep Reading - You Need To Know The Danger You Are In -or- The Paradise You Can Have). The Unforgivable Sin Every sin can be forgiven but one. That sin, however, is your ticket to Hell. It cannot and never will be forgiven no matter how much you cry out, beg and plead on judgment day. Refuse to correct this one and you are doomed for eternity. This Is The One Thing In Life You Don't Want To Miss, So Read Very Carefully. The Unforgivable Sin is a sin of both omission and commission. It is something you fail to do and in failing to do it you defiantly, arrogantly, commit the one greatest affront, mockery and yes, even hatred toward God that any human being can inflict. It is the greatest, deliberately offensive act and insult to a loving God any man or woman can perpetrate. The one thing God cannot forgive. This sin is the source of the crumbling of our nation and our world. The falling to the very depths of human depravity that continues to make this a world of darkness, death, crime, hatred, illness and filth. Do this one thing and when you die, after your judgment, you will take up residence in the Lake of Fire to experience the full force of God's wrath for eternity.

6 What Is The Unforgivable Sin? REJECTING JESUS CHRIST AS GOD'S ONLY PROVISION FOR YOUR SALVATION AND FORGIVNESS OF SIN. No Jesus No Heaven. That s It! Let Me Prove It To You... WARNING: READ THIS NEXT SECTION VERY CAREFULLY. FOR THE FIRST TIME YOU MIGHT ACTUALLY UNDERSTAND HOW THIS ALL WORKS. Here's How It Works. God Has Only 2 Plans PLAN A God's Plan IF......you choose (and it is your choice because God gave you free will)... IF you choose, by faith, to believe in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior and ACCEPT HIS death as full payment for your sin. And you yield your life and your will to HIM, giving yourself back to its rightful owner THEN......HE pays the price for your sins. You are made clean, white as snow. Your sins are forgiven, washed away and you are accepted by God the Father as Children of God and have your Eternal Reward in Heaven. God now has access to you, thus you can experience God s power, provision, peace and joy right now. Only Jesus can cleanse, bless and reward us. But, you must belong to HIM. He will not force HIS Lordship or Heaven upon anyone. So, you must believe and accept Jesus, God s only son, to be saved from God s wrath. Plan B Your Own Plan IF HOWEVER......you choose (and again it is your choice)... IF you choose to REJECT the death of JESUS CHRIST - The Son of God, who died to pay the full price of your sin and IF you decide to keep ownership of your own life, making your own decisions, being your own god, (or believing in other gods) and not turning your life over to HIM. IF you DO NOT RECEIVE HIS free gift of salvation and Heaven ON HIS TERMS; THEN......you get to pay, on your own terms, the full price of your sin, yourself, by spending eternity in Hell to satisfy GOD'S requirement for sin. The penalty for sin is death (separation from God) and someone must pay it. In addition, you get to live right now in confusion, depression, pain, lack, even illness, discord, loneliness and failure because you have chosen to live under your own power and wisdom, which is considered complete foolishness to God.

7 Someone Must Pay The Price For Your Sin Will It Be Jesus Or You? Your Choice. If You Say No To Jesus God Must Stand Behind HIS Own Rule Of Law To Allow You The Free Will To Honor Your Request To Spend Eternity In Hell By Refusing To Accept HIS Payment For Your Sin Because Jesus Is God s Only Provision To Keep All Of Us Out Of Hell God Sends No One To Hell You Choose It Of Your Own Free Will Get This Straight Sin is disobedience and rebellion against God, not living out HIS purpose and plan for your life that HE gave you. Living your own way instead of HIS way. When you die, you will go to judgment. Every man and woman will stand before Jesus Christ, as their judge. There is no reincarnation or purgatory. There is no religion, no church, no man, no priest, no shrine, no idol and no philosophy that can save you. Jesus alone was appointed by God to be your Lord, Savior, Advocate and your Judge upon your death. Your disagreement with this statement does not make you right. Please Keep Reading Hebrews 9: it is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment... (No reincarnation) Jesus Is Also Our Advocate Before God Hebrews 9:24 (ESV) 24For Christ has entered, not into holy places made with hands, which are copies of the true things, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God on our behalf. If You Are An Obedient Believer In Christ Even in your life right now, if you have accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, and live in obedience, you live in the Kingdom of God right here, right now on this Earth, under HIS loving rule, blessings and protection. If You Are An Unbeliever You live in the Kingdom of Satan right here, right now on this Earth, being used, abused, depressed, confused and destroyed, being defeated and frustrated at every turn. If You Are A Believer In Christ When you die, you go to judgment and then to Heaven.

8 If You Are An Unbeliever When you die, you go to judgment and then straight to the Lake of Fire to pay for your sin. The Bible says in Romans 3:23 NIV 23for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. 2 Corinthians 5:10 NIV 10For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive what is due him for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad. THAT INCLUDES YOU! That means you are already condemned if you have not chosen Plan A At your final judgment Jesus, the Judge, will pronounce your sentence. You will either be: 1) Welcomed into eternal life in Heaven with God - OR - 2) Be cast into Hell for eternal torment with Satan and his demons. Romans 6 (The Message) 20 As long as you did what you felt like doing, ignoring God, you didn't have to bother with right thinking or right living, or right anything for that matter. Where did it get you? A dead end. (Eternal death) 22-23But now that you've found you don't have to listen to sin tell you what to do, and have discovered the delight of listening to God telling you - what a surprise! A whole, healed, put-together life right now, with more and more of life on the way! Work hard for sin your whole life and your pension is death. But God's gift is real life, eternal life, delivered by Jesus, our Master. You inherited Original Sin from Adam and Eve when you were born. So, even if you lived a perfect life (which is not even possible) you would still be guilty of sin. Jesus Lived A Perfect Life And Gives You The Only Way Out 1) You see, Jesus died and went to Hell for you, to pay the price for your sin, so you would not have to suffer eternal punishment. 2) But Jesus was a perfect man having never committed sin while on earth. The only man to live a sin-free life. You Must Know This As Well 3) Also, Jesus did not have the inheritance of Original Sin from Adam because HIS Father was GOD the Father, not Adam the Sinner. 4) Thus, Jesus' perfection allowed God to raise HIM from the depths of Hell and death. The only man to come back from Hell. 5) Jesus now sits at the right hand of God the Father in Heaven. 6) Jesus now reigns as LORD of all, who is all, and is in all. 7) HE is your LORD and Savior. 8) He is the one and only way to Heaven.

9 9) HE has been given all authority in Heaven and Earth by the Father. 10) You have no other choice if Heaven is your desired destination and you want your life today to be filled with, joy, peace, contentment & meaning. Phil 2:9-11 NIV 9Therefore God exalted him (Jesus) to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, 10that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. But You And I Are Not Perfect 1) You and I did inherit Original Sin from Adam and Eve. (That is why it is said that we are born in sin). 2) You have also committed your own sin. 3) There is no good deed or any amount of good works you can do that will take away your sin or make you acceptable to God. 4) There is no such thing as a Good Person or Scales that need to tilt a little more to the good than the bad to get into Heaven. 5) You either receive Jesus payment for your sin -or- you pay it yourself. All you have to do is believe in HIM, receive HIM in faith, confess your sin, and yield your life to HIM - to be saved. Isaiah 64:6 NIV 6All of us have become like one who is unclean, and all our righteous acts are like filthy rags; we all shrivel up like a leaf, and like the wind our sins sweep us away. If You Die Before You Receive Jesus As Lord And Savior You Are Immediately Sentenced To Hell With No Way Out You stay there for an eternity of torment because your eternal soul cannot die. A torment so vile that it has no equal on this earth to compare it to. It is inexpressible. You Are Destined For Hell From The Day You Were Born Just the opposite of what most people think. For those who have ears, let them hear what the Word of God Says. Believe and be saved this very day!!! God Gives You Free Will To Choose. The Choice You Make On This Matter Will Determine Your Eternal Address IT S YOUR CHOICE! He Already Made His Choice He Died For You

10 Who Are The Wicked? Those who do not accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior and live their lives in sin and disobedience to HIM. Psalm 14:2-3 (NAS) 2The LORD has looked down from heaven upon the sons of men to see if there are any who understand, who seek after God. 3They have all turned aside, together they have become corrupt; There is no one who does good, not even one. Who Are The Righteous? Those who have accepted Jesus Christ, by faith, as their personal Lord and Savior and have been cleansed from their sin and justified by the sacrifice of HIS death on the cross and resurrection. Those who now live to trust and obey the LORD and become the man or woman they were created to be and do HIS will in their life. Why Is Rejecting Jesus So Hurtful To God? When You Deny Jesus Christ As Lord, You Also Deny God As God Why? Who was the Father of Jesus Christ? God the Father HIM- SELF, who sent HIS Holy Spirit upon Mary. Luke 1:35 NIV 35The angel answered (Mary), "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the holy one to be born will be called the Son of God. Matthew 1:21 NIV 21"She will bear a Son; and you shall call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins." When You Deny The Bible As The Word Of God You Deny Jesus Why? Because Jesus is The Living Word. He fulfilled every prophecy in the Old Testament proving his title as Christ THE MESSIAH. The entire Bible is the story of HIS life from creation to Revelation. John 1:14 NIV 14The Word became flesh (Jesus) and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth. When You Deny The Bible As God s Word You Deny The Holy Spirit Why? Who wrote the Bible? The Holy Spirit. 2 Peter 1:20-21 NIV 20Above all, you must understand that no prophecy of Scripture came about by the prophet's own interpretation. 21For prophecy never had its origin in the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit. 2 Timothy 3:15-17 NIV 15and how from infancy you have known the holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. 16All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteous-

11 ness, 17so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work. Are You A Member of The Family Of God? There Is A Universal Error In Thinking On This Point Most people think that all people are God s children. They Would Be Wrong. You are not a child of God until you have given your life to Jesus. Your prayers are not even heard, but rejected by God, until you become a part of the Family of God through faith, belief in, obedience to and acceptance of Jesus as Lord. Job 35:9-15 (The Message) 9-15"When times get bad, people cry out for help. They cry for relief from being kicked around, but never give God a thought when things go well. People are arrogantly indifferent to God - until, of course, they're in trouble, and then God is indifferent to them. There's nothing behind such prayers except panic; the Almighty pays them no mind. So why would he notice you just because you say you're tired of waiting to be heard? Does God Hear And Answer The Prayers Of Those Who Reject Jesus? Why should HE? Your rejection of Jesus as your LORD is your declaration to God that you want to have nothing to do with HIM. That it is YOU who is in charge of your own life. That you want to be your own god, working under your own power, behaving as you see fit and you have no interest in doing things HIS way. If you are the god of your life, then you are praying to no one but yourself. When you pray to God - your prayer simply bounces back to you. You get to answer your own prayers. To get your prayers heard and answered by God, you must call on the name of Jesus Christ the Lord. All other prayers to any other name, power or god other than Jesus are not heard by God the Father. Why? Because you are connected to the wrong source, a false source. A source that has no power to hear you or answer your prayers. If You Have Rejected Jesus......you have ignored and denied none less than the Son of God. You have cast off HIS death and sacrifice FOR YOU, as something meaningless and foolish, thus telling God that YOU are in command. That YOU are your own savior. So HE lets you do it your way without any help from HIM. By rejecting Christ s payment for your sin - you may not have known it - but you have agreed to pay for your sin yourself. And God will allow you to pay the price of your own sin and rebellion towards HIM.

12 Proverbs 28:26 NIV 26He who trusts in himself is a fool, but he who walks in wisdom is kept safe. God Created You For A Specific Purpose You have a purpose here on earth. God created you with gifts and talents that only you have, to fulfill a specific job, at a certain place, in a certain time. And, you will be rewarded greatly for finding and doing your job. The life you were made for. Your life is not just to get by every day, make money, have fun, seek pleasure, ease, comfort, riches and power. You are here to do HIS will. But You Won't Know What Your Purpose Is - Until You Give Your Life To Him HE GIVES YOU THE HOLY SPIRIT When you do give your life to HIM, HE gives you the Holy Spirit, who comes into you and gives you direction, peace, joy and the wisdom to live. The same Holy Spirit that fathered Jesus and wrote the Bible will come to live in you. HE gives you knowledge, understanding, protection and power to endure and overcome life's troubles and, HE sets you on a path of righteousness and gives you the tools to accomplish HIS work, right now, here on earth. You become HIS ambassador to represent HIM in whatever community, job or circle of friends HE has placed you in. And, you will live in the Kingdom of God, now and for all eternity with HIM upon your death. But, You Say I Have A Different Idea About God And Heaven The Number One Doubt That Most People Have Is This How can a loving GOD send anyone to Hell? I don't believe HE does and I don't believe HE will send me or anyone else to Hell. The Answer God doesn't send anyone to Hell! You send yourself to Hell by making the wrong choice. The Second Most Popular Excuse For Rejecting Christ Is This But I'm a good person and God won't turn me away. The Answer Oh Yes HE Will. In Fact, He Already Has. If you want to live in the Kingdom of Heaven right now and go to Heaven after death, you must do it HIS way, by HIS rules, not by your own self serving ways and ideas. 1) Since when did you make the rules governing Heaven and Hell - who gets in and how? 2) Since when did your own declaration of being a Good Person meet the qualifications to enter Heaven and be a child of God?

13 You are reading God s qualifications right here, right now and there is no mention of being A Good Person. There are only the Wicked or the Righteous and you now know which is which. The Good Person thing is just you deceiving yourself into feeling comfortable about keeping control of your life in your own hands instead of GOD's. And you think you can do it without punishment. You Would Be Wrong. Deuteronomy 29:19 NIV 19When such a person hears the words of this oath, he invokes a blessing on himself and therefore thinks, "I will be safe, even though I persist in going my own way." You Would Be Very Wrong. RELIGION IS MAN TRYING TO WORK HIS WAY TO GOD through his own self designed rules and good works. (Plan B) And we have already seen that all our good works are nothing more than filthy rags to God. What About Other Religions? All religions false and are hateful to God. HE calls it spiritual adultery and many a country has been destroyed because of worshiping other gods. CHRISTIANITY IS NOT A RELIGION It is God coming to man through Jesus Christ with the gift of Salvation and Heaven that HE (and only HE) could have paid for. It is a personal relationship with God through Jesus Christ. Not a mere following of rules and laws. All Religions Are False Jesus came to Earth from Heaven by HIS own free will. He lived a perfect life that no one had ever done before or has done since. He was put to death, not for HIS own wrong doing, but for OURS. Father God accepts payment for your sin from Jesus and Jesus alone. God Was The Father Of Jesus Jesus came for the purpose of forgiving your sins and showing us how to live, calling us into the Kingdom of God and giving us the power to live a holy life to perform the job HE has made you to do. There is no religion on earth that can make that claim. There are hundreds, even thousands of religions in the world - each one false because they are not of Jesus Christ the Lord or use the name of

14 Christ - but their Jesus has no resemblance to HIM. We have already seen that we cannot earn our salvation no matter how good we try to be. All religions with their rules, regulations and works - that don t include the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ - are all false (PLAN B). They can do nothing but fail and take countless thousands, even millions of deceived people to Hell in a blind, confused stupor. Even after a lifetime of 30, 40, 50 years of following any other religion, you will never satisfy God s requirement for eternal life. You have still snubbed the sacrifice of Jesus Christ and committed the Unforgivable Sin. A lifetime of good intentions is no excuse for living in error rather than God s truth. A truth HE has been whispering, or even shouting to you, your whole life, through other people and the very creation around you. All religions lead only to Hell. They were designed by Satan to do exactly that, and millions of men and women die and go to Hell - stunned by the verdict at their judgment, because they thought they were doing it right. They were deceived and received Hell for their efforts. Acts 4:12 NIV 12 Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved. The Name Is Jesus So, You Probably Didn't Know that right now, if you have not given your life to Jesus Christ, as your Lord and Savior you have a one way ticket to Hell. But Now You Do Know In John 14:6 NIV - Jesus made it very clear 6"I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me. Hebrews 11:6 NIV 6And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him. You Have Only Two Choices In Life: 1) Do it God's way - Plan A 2) Do it your way - Plan B THE BUS You have lived your whole life on a bus with a destination sign that says HELL on the front. The only way to get off that bus and get on the bus that says HEAVEN is to give, yield, turn over your life to Jesus Christ and receive HIS salvation. Then, HE makes the switch for you. HE personally escorts you off the wrong bus and on to the right bus. The choice you make even now, this very moment, determines where you live, both now and after death. Hebrews 4:7 NIV 7Therefore God again set a certain day, calling it Today,... "Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts."

15 Do Not Wait Until Later. You Are Hearing His Voice Right Now! God is drawing you to HIM- SELF. He is calling you to be saved and set apart to HIS service for which HE created you. Now is the time to come to HIM. Today is the day of your salvation. Are You Offended By This Message? If so, it may already be too late for you. Your mind may already be clouded or even closed to the truth. 1 Cor 1:18 NIV 18For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. John 6:44 NIV 44"No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him, and I will raise him up at the last day. However, if you feel like you are tired of living life your own way, you are tired of being in confusion, anger, sickness, fear, or any other negative state of mind, body, spirit and soul, and this message gives you a deep feeling of hope and joy - then God is calling - drawing you to HIMSELF right now. How Can I Be Saved? Instead of rejecting Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior you must believe in HIM and through faith accept HIM as your personal Lord and Savior, turning your life over to HIM. Many have said a little prayer to receive HIM as Savior, but the LORD part was never adopted. Maybe this describes you. You simply wanted Fire Insurance to keep yourself out of Hell, but you continue to live a life of disobedience to HIM doing things your own way, not seeking or following HIM. Oh sure, the words might have been said, but you are not obedient to seek HIM and do HIS will. God sees the heart. He cannot be fooled or mocked. If the true faith and belief - and the desire to be obedient and to please God that naturally follows salvation is not there, the words you said were meaningless. If HE has not been placed in your life as LORD, HE is also not your SAVIOR. Saying a few words does not alone save you. You must first, in complete faith, believe in the fact that Jesus is Lord of All and seek HIS ways in your life. Confess this prayer of salvation with your mouth (saying the words from your heart and mind), then, from that moment, seek HIM daily and live in obedience to HIS Word and HIS calling for your life. You will never be the same. You will be HIS ambassador here on Earth and you will experience miraculous ways of living you could have never dreamed possible. He will show you what to do and give you the power, wisdom and protection to do it. When You Accept Him As Your Lord - He Also Becomes Your Savior So, your prayer of salvation must be to accept HIM as LORD

16 and SAVIOR. HE calls the shots. HE leads the band. HE gives you your direction. (See Prayer of Salvation page 17) Talk and pray to the LORD throughout the day and you will find your purpose and peace. Joy, Peace, Wisdom, Love Once you do these things, you will find a joy, love, protection, provision, healing, wisdom and power that you have never known. Because you have placed yourself under God s authority you now have been given HIS authority and power to do the things HE has called you to do. You will have an inner peace, strength and eternal faith, that HE is in control of everything and you will never have to fear anything. HE knows who you are, where you came from and why you are here (because HE created you and put you where you are) and HE knows where you are going. Once you get this into your heart and mind, there is nothing that can shake you, for you know that HE holds you in his hand and HE can take you to the place that is the very best for you. Some people say that Jesus was just a Prophet, Good Man or Wise Teacher. That HE had some nice principles for living, but not for today - and HE certainly is not God. You Would Be Completely Wrong He Did Not Give You That Choice. Jesus Declared HIMSELF God. John 10:30 (NAS) 30"I and the Father are one. With That Declaration He Gave Us No Option But To See Him As A Liar, A Lunatic Or Our Lord If you think HIM a liar or lunatic then just write HIM off and go your own way. (That would be - Plan B) However, if HE is LORD, you better find out who HE is, what HE has to say, what HE expects from you and - you must listen and obey if you wish to have a blessed life. If you are already working in Plan B Right now is the time to make a switch to Plan A. God s Way. And Here s Your Chance How Do I Give My Life To Jesus And Receive Him As My Lord And Savior? There is no joy as great as the joy of being accepted by God and having a fresh new start, being cleansed from all the blackness and confusion of your sin. Joy inexpressible and full of glory. Right now, trust HIM. HE loves you and knows you and will do nothing to harm you, and will give you only what is best for you. Read the following prayer and if it is the desire of your heart pray it, repeat it to God and mean it and you will be HIS and HE will be yours. See Next Page He s Calling You Right Now

17 The Prayer Of Salvation LORD Jesus, I am a sinner and have broken YOUR laws and rebelled against YOU. I have ignored YOU as God, held myself above YOU and done things my way instead of YOURS. I have lived for pride, pleasure, prestige, riches, fame and comfort instead of seeking YOU to find out what my real job is, why YOU put me here and what I am to do. Please forgive me my sin and rebellion and cleanse me from all unrighteousness and accept me as part of the Family of God. I am tired of doing things my way and ruining my life. I now repent and turn to YOU as Lord of my life. I yield my life back to YOU, the rightful owner. I now, by my own choice, state my confession of faith - I believe that YOU were born of the virgin Mary, YOU taught us how to live a life pleasing to God when you were here, YOU shed YOUR blood and died for my sin and the sins of the whole world, and YOU were raised from the dead by God the Father where you now sit at HIS right hand as Lord of all. And I was put here to live to glorify YOU. I now receive and accept YOUR sacrifice and YOUR shed blood on the cross as full payment for my sins, God's only way of salvation. I also receive you as the LORD of my life. I will follow you wherever you shall lead me, for from this day forward, I am yours. Come into me and teach me, give me YOUR Holy Spirit that I might live by your direction, love, peace, protection, provision, joy, wisdom, truth and power that I may experience the fullness of your blessings and please you in all I do. Take my life and use me for what YOU created me for. May I hear at my judgment, Well done my good and faithful servant. AMEN If you have just received Jesus as your Lord and Savior, please click below to tell us about it. And, if you like, tell us your story so we can share it with others. saved@jesushelpsnow.com If You Did Not Receive Jesus As Lord And Savior PLEASE CLICK HERE NOW THERE IS ONE MORE THING YOU ABSOLUTELY NEED TO KNOW

18 If You Did Not Receive Jesus You Have Just Become A Member Of An Exclusive Club God Does Not Allow You To Go On Rejecting Him Forever Without Penalty 2 Thessalonians 2:10-12 AMP 10 And by unlimited seduction to evil and with all wicked deception for those who are perishing (going to perdition) (perdition - a state of final spiritual ruin; loss of the soul; damnation) because they did not welcome the Truth but refused to love it that they might be saved. (What you have just done by rejecting Christ) 11 Therefore God sends upon them a misleading influence, a working of error and a strong delusion to make them believe what is false, 12 In order that all may be judged and condemned who did not believe in [who refused to adhere to, trust in, and rely on] the Truth, but [instead] took pleasure in unrighteousness. (Plan B doing things your way instead of God s.) When you deny the truth and reject Jesus as your Lord and Savior, you have rejected God. When you reject God, enough times HE finally gives up on you, HE places a deceptive spirit upon you so you no longer believe what is true. What is false now becomes your truth. Have you ever wondered why you can talk to some people, even about the blatantly obvious, and they will never be swayed to truth or reality? Some people believe that right is wrong and wrong is right and you can t change their mind no matter what you say. They are the ones who have rejected the sacrifice of Jesus Christ just one too many times and God has completely given them over to their own ways, deception and believing the lie as truth.
