Last night I was in a Bible Study.
Heaven is a gift.
One of the things we were discussing
was judgment day.
One day we will stand before God
and be judged.
Maybe the Lord will play back all the
events of your life.
Based on your life will the Lord
reward you with heaven?
Do your good deeds get you into heaven?
Can you earn heaven?
I told them that I do not fear death.
I know I sin and fall short of what
God wants me to do.
I ask God for mercy on my soul.
I ask him to forgive me.
What do you think?
It is a free gift.
We do not deserve it.
We cannot earn it.
Jesus died for you.
Jesus took your place.
We deserve death.
He saved us.
He rescued us from death.
He suffered and died,
so that you could live.
Call on the name of the Lord
and you will be saved.
Jesus, save me.
