My Friend…. Are you Heaven Bound?
I am asking you the most important question of life. Your joy or your sorrow for all eternity depends upon your answer. The question is: Are you saved? I mean… are you sure you will go to heaven when you die? It is not: Are you a member of some church?… but, are you saved? It is not: How good are you?… but, are you saved?
No one can enjoy the blessings of God, nor go to Heaven without being saved. Jesus said to Nicodemus in John 3:7, “Ye must be born again.”
God give us His Word the only plan for Salvation. The plan is simple. You can be saved today.
First, my firend, you must realize you are sinner. “There is none righteous, no, not one.”
“For there is no difference: For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.” (Romans 3:10, 22, 23).
There is no chance to be saved unless you come to realize you are a sinner.
Because you are sinner, you are condemned to die.
“For the wages of sin is death”(Romans 6:23).
“Sin … bringeth forth death” (James 1:15).
This means separation from God, in hell forever. How terrible! Yes, my friend, it is true. But God loved you so much that He gave His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, as your substitute, who bore your sin and died in your place.
“He hath made him (Jesus) to be sin for us, who know no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.” (2 Corinthians 5:21).
“Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed” (I Peter 2:24).
Jesus had to die. He had to shed His blood. “For the life of the flesh is in the blood” (Leviticus 17:11).
“Without the shedding of blood there is no remission” (Hebrews 9:22).
Now we cannot understand how our sin was laid upon Jesus, but God says in His Word that it was. So your sin, my friend, was laid upon Jesus and He died in your place. It is true. God cannot lie.
The Philippian jailer asked Paul and Silas: ”What must I do to be saved?”
“And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house” (Acts 16:31).
Simply believe on Him as the one who bore your sin, died in your place, was buried and was raised for your justification. Now call upon Him.
“For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved” (Romans 10:13).
The first prayer for a sinner to pray is given in Luke 18:13: ”God be merciful to me a sinner.”
Now you are a sinner and surely you are sorry because of it. Right now, wherever you are, lift your heart to God in prayer. It does not take a long, loud prayer, for God is anxious to save you. Just say: “Oh, God, I am a sinner, I am sorry, I repent; have mercy upon me, and save me for Jesus’ sake.” Now just take Him at His Word.
“For whosoever (that includes you) shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved” (Romans 10:13).
Whosoever…shall be saved (not might nor can) but shall be saved.
Just take God at His Word. When you have done what He asked, claim salvation by faith, according to His Word. Believe and you shall be saved. No church, no lodge, no good works, no one but Jesus only can save you.
The simple plan of salvation is: You are a sinner, and because you are a sinner, you must die or else believe on Christ, who was your substitute, who died in your place, and who was buried and raised again. Just call upon God, realizing you are a sinner and ask Him to have mercy upon you and save you for Jesus’ sake. Then just take Him at His word and by faith claim salvation. You say, “Surely that is not all that is necessary to do to be saved.” Yes it is, absolutely all. Thank God many have been won to Christ by this simple plan. It is scriptural. It is God’s plan. My friend!
