There are BIG questions that concern all of us.
What happens when I die?
Where will I spend eternity?
The single most important question you will ever answer is this…
“If I were to die today would I spend eternity in heaven With God?”
Your relationship with Jesus Christ is important to finding that answer.
First, you must understand your need for a personal Saviour.The Bible is very clear that we all have a huge problem called sin. Romans 3:23 says it this way, “For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.” This verse simply means that none of us are perfect. Are you willing to admit that?

Sin, however, has a high price tag. Romans 6:23a says, “For the wages of sin is death….” In other words, the price for sin is eternal death apart from God in a place called Hell. Because of our sin, none of us can make it into Heaven alone.

Here’s the good news – God sent help! The rest of Romans 6:23 says, “…but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Again in Romans 5:8 God says, “But God commendeth His love toward us in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us.”

Finally, you must place your full trust in Jesus Christ as your personal Saviour.
Romans 10:13 says, “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” In verse ten of that same chapter God says, “For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.” It’s as simple as believing and receiving! It’s as simple as asking.
If you’ve never asked Jesus Christ to be your personal Saviour, you could do that right now! With Him in your heart, life will make a lot more sense. You could stop right now and sincerely pray something like this:
“Dear Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner. I am trusting in You and You alone to save me. Thank you for dying on the cross for me! In Jesus Name, Amen.”
