on the whole world and
destroyed every living
thing with the worldwide
flood because he saw
that the wickedness of
man was great in the
earth. He did that
because the earth was
corrupt before God and
filled with violence. And
it grieved God and he
was sorry he had
created man.
The corrupt world, the
violence, the rejection
of God sounds just like
what is happening in
today's world! Jesus
Christ warned us (those
of us living in these last
days) that when He
returns to judge the
world that has rejected
him as Saviour, it
will be just like in the
days of Noah when
there was corruption
and violence everywhere.
This is a warning to us.
God's patience will not
last forever.
God would like
everyone to repent
of their sins and be
saved, but people
would rather reject
God's direction for
their lives and disobey
God and continue to
live in sin.

all things continue as

slack concerning
his promise, as
some men count
slackness; but is
longsuffering to

that any should perish,
but that all should
come to
repentance [of their
sins].

elements shall melt
with fervent heat, the
earth also and the
works that are therein
shall be burned up.

If you have not yet
If you have not yet
accepted Jesus Christ
as your Saviour, and
would like to do that
before God's coming
judgment on the
earth, then here is
how God says you
can be saved from
your sins and go to
heaven when you 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 3:23For all have sinned, and come short of theglory 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 bloodon 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 JesusChrist (i.e. baptism, good works, idols,false gods, $/tithes, man-made church rules or traditions,or religious ceremonies) to save you.
Titus 3:5Not by works ofrighteousness 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 ourgood works (stuff wehave done). See verses7:22 and 7:23 below!
Matthew7:21 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 JesusChrist his life! You do not have to work to earn a Gift - It is free!
Romans 6:23For 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 andsincerely meant it,then you are now aChristian! Welcometo 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 heavento be with Jesus Christ forever and ever! Thefollowing Bible verseis one of my favorites.It gave me comfort whenI went through doublebreast cancer surgeryfor I knew that if I diedon the operating tableI would immediately bein heaven with Jesus!Knowing that is why Ino 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 Catholicchurch says that it is wrong to believe that you can know you are saved before you die. Please think aboutthis: God is a God of love. After all he senthis Son to die for yoursins so you could bewith him in heaven foreternity! That is love!Why would a God of lovewant you to worry all ofyour life whether you will go to heaven or hell whenyou 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 LOVESYOU and wants you to have peace knowing thatyou are saved now and can know now that you are going to heaven whenyou die! Please trust yourloving heavenly Father's Holy Word (the King JamesBible) when God tells you that you will be with Him after death if you trustedJesus Christ as your Saviour!
And now that you have become a Christian, itis important to learn howto live a life that glorifiesGod in heaven who gaveyou the Gift of salvation.Link here to my Biblestudy on 'What Do I DoNow That I Am Saved?'
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,
or religious
ceremonies) 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.
