Do you know for sure, beyond a doubt, where you will go when you die? You can know!!! You must know!!! If your are born again, you will know!!! |

|
|
Revelation 1:5 ... Jesus Christ...washed us from our sins in his own blood!!! |
|
Romans 3:25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood!!! |
|
1 John 1:7 the blood of Jesus Christ ...cleanseth us from all sin. |
|
Ephesians 1:7 In whom we have redemption through his blood!!! |
|
Ephesians 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith ...through faith in his blood!!! |
|
Ephesians 2:9 Not of works... |
|
Gal 4:16 Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth? |
|
James 1:27 Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world. |
|
(Pure works!!! Pure religion is pure works!!!) |
|
(And to keep himself unspotted from the world!!!) |
|
Can religion save you? Any religion? |
|
If it could, you would have to keep yourself unspotted, and do good works!!! |
|
Have any of you kept yourself unspotted? Have you done enough good works? |
|
How do you know????? Even if you thought you could keep yourself unspotted , and thought you have done enough good works, would that be enough to get you to Heaven? |
|
Not according to the word of God... |
|
Rom 3:20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified... |
|
Gal 2:16 ... a man is not justified by the works of the law...for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified. |
|
Eph 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves... |
|
Eph 2:9 Not of works... |
|
Religion is man’s attempt to justify himself to God!!! |
|
A religious man will tell God: “You have to accept me, Lord, Look what I did!!! I didn’t do that!!! I’m not as bad as he is!!! I’m better than she is!!! If he’s going to Heaven, I certainly will, for I’m better than he is!!! I don’t sin anymore!!! I’ve been baptized!!! |
|
I keep the 10 commandments!!!” (Oh, yeah? Name them!) |
|
The Bible says: |
|
Rom 3:28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law (works!!!). |
|
Therefore we conclude that religion will NOT get you into Heaven. |
|
You CANNOT justify yourself to God. |
|
If this is true, then how can one get to Heaven? |
|
NOT Through trying to justify himself to God! Not Through religion! |
|
God has a better way. Through faith!!!! |
|
Rom 3:28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law. |
|
Faith in what? |
|
Romans 3:25 ... faith in his blood!!! |
|
Rom 3:9-19 (God hath concluded)...all under sin...none righteous, no, not one...none that understandeth... none that seeketh after God...all gone out of the way...none that doeth good, no, not one...they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips...mouth is full of cursing and bitterness...Their feet are swift to shed blood...Destruction and misery are in their ways...the way of peace have they not known...There is no fear of God before their eyes.... all the world may become guilty before God. |
|
Are you guilty? If you don’t think your sin makes you guilty, you aren’t saved. |
|
You have to know that you are a sinner, guilty before God, that you cannot justify yourself to God, before you will realize that you are Lost! |
|
The reason people don't go to Heaven is because they don’t believe they are Lost! |
|
They are trusting in their religion, or their works to get them there! |
|
You must realize that you deserve Hell, before you can appreciate the need for a Saviour, to Save you from your sins. |
|
1 Tim 1:15...Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief. |
|
Rom 3:20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin... |
|
Rom 3:21 But now the righteousness of God (Jesus) without the law is manifested... |
|
Rom 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; |
|
Rom 3:24 Being justified freely by his grace (not by our works!!) through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: |
|
Rom 3:25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins... |
|
Rom 3:26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus. |
|
So, it is plain that we Cannot justify ourselves to God, but that he justifies us to him by our faith in the blood of Jesus, at Calvary!!! |
|
Rom 3:27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith. |
|
Rom 3:28 Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law. |
|
Religion is Not Salvation! Salvation is not through religion! |
|
Salvation is a far apart in meaning from Religion as East is from West. |
|
Religion is man’s attempt to justify himself to God. |
|
Salvation is man’s realization, and belief, that he needs God to justify him through faith in the Blood Atonement at Calvary! Once, for All!!! |
|
All religions preach that you must do something to justify yourself to God, so he will have to accept you. |
|
God will not accept you for your works. |
|
All religions will lead you straight to Hell. |
|
Only Jesus will take you to Heaven!!! |
|
John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. |
|
Jesus’ way is through faith in his blood atonement, plus nothing! |
|
We don’t get to heaven by what we did, by what we do, by what we don’t do. We go to Heaven by believing that what Jesus did will take us there, By believing that God will impute to us the righteousness of Jesus Christ, through faith in his Blood at Calvary, to get us there—plus nothing else!!! |
|
For by Grace are you saved, through faith, |
|
Not works! |
|
Not religion! It is a gift from God, And you will know beyond a doubt that you will go to Heaven!
