with Mary and Martha and
their brother, Lazarus. But
Jesus was not there when
Lazarus died. Here is what
happened when Jesus
Christ met Martha at the
tomb of Lazarus.
John
11:21 Then said Martha
11:22 But I know, that
11:23 Jesus saith unto
11:25 Jesus said unto her,
When people trust that
2 Corinthians 5:8
We are confident, I say,

These things have I
Titus 1:2
In hope of eternal life,
And for those people who
5:12 He that hath the Son
5:13 These things have

14:2 In my Father's house
14:3 And if I go and prepare
In heaven God will wipe
John
11:21 Then said Martha
unto Jesus, Lord, if thou
hadst been here, my
brother had not died.
11:22 But I know, that
even now, whatsoever
thou wilt ask of God, God
will give it thee.
11:23 Jesus saith unto
her, Thy brother shall
rise again.
11:24 Martha saith unto
him, I know that he
shall rise again in the
resurrection at the last
day.
11:25 Jesus said unto her,
I am the resurrection,
and the life: he that
believeth in me,
though he were dead,
yet shall he live:
When people trust that
Jesus Christ, the Sinless
Son of God, died to pay
for their sins and then
rose from the grave,
they immediately go
into the presence of the
Lord in heaven when
they die!
2 Corinthians 5:8
We are confident, I say,
and willing rather to be
absent from the body,
and to be present with
our faith in Jesus Christ's
death and resurrection
for our sins that we can
know that we will have
eternal life in heaven!
I have heard that the
Catholic Church says
that that is 'anathema'
meaning something
that is detested to believe
you can know you are
saved. But God is a
loving heavenly Father
who would want us to
know NOW how to get
to heaven and how to
avoid going to hell. So,
why would God be so
cruel as to keep His
followers worrying their
whole lives whether
they would die and go
into everlasting hellfire
or into heaven? GOD IS
LOVING AND WOULD
NOT BE SO CRUEL! It
is a lie from Satan that
you cannot know you
will go to heaven before
you die. Satan does not
want you having peace
of mind so you are no
longer afraid of death
for the rest of your life.
If you are constantly in
fear of death, then you
lose the joy and peace
that Jesus said He would
give us when we commit
our lives to Him. That is
why God the Father in
heaven gave us the
following verse in His
Holy Word, the King
James Bible. This verse
is one of my very
favorites. It is why I was
not afraid of death when
I had surgery for double
breast cancer. My God is
a God of love, not a God
of cruelty who would keep
me guessing and
worrying my whole life
whether I'd make it to
heaven or not.
1 John 5:13
These things have I
written unto you that
believe on the name
of the Son of God;
that ye may know
that ye have eternal
life, and that ye may
believe on the name
of the Son of God.
I trust what God says
I trust what God says
when His Holy Word tells
us that we can know we
have eternal life because
the Bible tells us that
God cannot lie. What
hope, peace, and joy
I have because I
trust God's Holy Word
that He gave to us so
we can know NOW
that we have eternal
life. Because of God's
promise I no longer
have to fear what
comes after death!
What peace there is
in knowing that!
Titus 1:2
In hope of eternal life,
which God, that cannot
lie, promised before the
world began;
And for those people who
trust their pastor, priest,
professor, or teacher
rather than they do
God's Holy Word, the
King James Bible, you
may want to read my
post called 'How can I
know the Bible is true?'
which shows that the
Bible has been proven
to be true by science,
prophecies that have
come true, and by
archaeological finds.

1 John
5:11 And this is the record,
1 John
5:11 And this is the record,
that God hath given to us
eternal life, and this life is
in his Son.
5:12 He that hath the Son
hath life; and he that
hath not the Son of God
hath not life.
5:13 These things have
I written unto you that
believe on the name of
the Son of God; that ye
may know that ye
have eternal life, and
that ye may believe on
the name of the Son
of God.

John 5:24
Verily, verily, I say unto
you, He that heareth my

that sent me, hath
everlasting life, and shall
not come into
condemnation; but
is passed from death
unto life.

Christ], that whosoever
believeth in him should

everlasting life.

Jesus Christ told us that
He is preparing a wonderful
place for your loved one to
live in when they arrive in
heaven if they have trusted
Jesus as their Savior! It
sounds like it's going to be
a mansion.
John
14:2 In my Father's house
are many mansions: if it
were not so, I would have
told you. I go to prepare a
place for you.
14:3 And if I go and prepare
a place for you, I will come
again, and receive you
unto myself; that where
I am, there ye may be
also.
In heaven God will wipe
away all our tears; and
your saved loved ones
who have died will be
free from pain, tears,
sickness, disease,
handicaps, birth defects,
mental illness, or
anything that caused
them pain and grief
while they were here
in their earthly bodies.

I hope these Bible
I hope these Bible
truths will comfort you.
And if have not yet
been saved from your
sins, and want to see
your saved family
member in heaven
when you die, here is
how to know you are
going to heaven when
you die.
How Can I Get To Heaven?
How can I be saved
from my sins and know
that I will go to heaven
when I die? God's Holy
Word, the King James
Bible, tells us how:
Agree with God in
heaven that you are
a sinner and need a
Saviour. GOD SAYS
WE ARE ALL
SINNERS. But keep
reading because
there is Good News
for you:
Romans 3:23
For all have sinned,
and come short of the
glory of God;
Be willing to turn from
your sin (repent).
Acts 17:30
And the times of this
ignorance God winked
at; but now commandeth
all men every where to
repent:
Believe that Jesus
Christ, the Sinless Son
of God, shed his blood
on the cross to pay
for your sins and
mine, was buried,
and that three
days later He rose
from the dead.
Romans 10:9
That if thou shalt confess
with thy mouth the Lord
Jesus, and shalt believe
in thine heart that God
hath raised him from
the dead, thou shalt
be saved.
Repent of trusting in
anything or anyone
other than Jesus
Christ (i.e. baptism,
good works, idols,
false gods, $/tithes,
man-made church
rules or traditions,
alive or dead people,
religious ceremonies,
etc.) to save you.
Titus 3:5
Not by works of
righteousness which we
have done, but according
to his mercy he saved us,
by the washing of
regeneration, and
renewing of the Holy
Ghost;
Jesus said that we do
not get to heaven by our
good works (stuff we
have done). See verses
7:22 and 7:23 below!
Matthew
7:21 Not every one that
saith unto me, Lord,
Lord, shall enter into
the kingdom of heaven;
but he that doeth the
will of my Father which
is in heaven.
7:22 Many will say to
me in that day, Lord,
Lord, have we not
prophesied in thy
name? and in thy
name have cast
out devils? and in
thy name done
many wonderful
works?
7:23 And then will I
profess unto them,
I never knew you:
depart from me, ye
that work iniquity.
Accept God's Free
Gift of eternal life
through his Sinless
Son, the Lord Jesus
Christ. It is a free gift
to you, but it cost Jesus
Christ his life! You do
not have to work to
earn a Gift - It is free!
Romans 6:23
For the wages of sin is
death; but the gift of
God is eternal life
through Jesus Christ
our Lord.
Ask Jesus Christ to be
your personal Saviour
and Lord of your life.
Romans 10:13
For whosoever shall
call upon the name
of the Lord shall be
saved.
So, if you did that and
sincerely meant it,
then you are now a
Christian! Welcome
to the family.
Romans 10:9
That if thou shalt confess
with thy mouth the Lord
Jesus, and shalt believe
in thine heart that God
hath raised him from
the dead, thou shalt
be saved.
And when you die, you
will go straight to heaven
to be with Jesus Christ
forever and ever! The
following Bible verse
is one of my favorites.
It gave me comfort when
I went through double
breast cancer surgery
for I knew that if I died
on the operating table
I would immediately be
in heaven with Jesus!
Knowing that is why I
no longer fear what
comes after death.
What freedom there is
in knowing that.
2 Corinthians 5:8
We are confident, I say,
and willing rather to be
absent from the body,
and to be present with
the Lord.
One note to all dear
Catholics: The Catholic
church says that it is
wrong to believe that
you can know you are
saved before you die.
Please think about
this: God is a God of
love. After all he sent
his Son to die for your
sins so you could be
with him in heaven for
eternity! That is love!
Why would a God of love
want you to worry all of
your life whether you will
go to heaven or hell when
you die? God in heaven
wants us to have peace
and joy in this life as we
live for him and draw
others to him as their
Saviour. Only a cruel
God would want us
worried and stressed
about what comes after
death. But GOD LOVES
YOU and wants you to
have peace knowing that
you are saved now and
can know now that you
are going to heaven when
you die! Please trust your
loving heavenly Father's
Holy Word (the King James
Bible) when God tells you
that you will be with Him
after death if you trusted
Jesus Christ as your
Saviour!
And now that you have
become a Christian, it
is important to learn how
to live a life that glorifies
God in heaven who gave
you the Gift of salvation.

Now That I Am Saved?'
