About
I AM AN 80 YEAR OLD MALE, BORN AGAIN, CHRISTIAN WITH A LOVE FOR JESUS. I DO NOT GET OUT MUCH ANYMORE BUT FIND THAT TELLING PEOPLE ABOUT THE LOVE JESUS HAS FOR THEM IS NOT ONLY WHAT WE ARE SUPPOSED TO DO BUT SOMETHING THAT THE WORLD NEEDS.

"DO YOU DESERVE HEAVEN?" BY DAVID MCMILLEN
DO YOU DESERVE HEAVEN?
IF YOU STOOD BEFORE GOD TODAY AND HE ASKED YOU WHAT YOU HAD DONE TO DESERVE TO BE THERE, WHAT WOULD YOU TELL HIM? SOME OF YOU WOULD START TELLING HIM OF ALL THE GOOD THINGS YOU HAD BEEN DOING, LIKE GOING TO CHURCH, FEEDING THE POOR, TEACHING SUNDAY SCHOOL, ETC., ETC., ETC. IF THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN A TEST QUESTION, YOU WOULD HAVE FAILED.
THERE IS NOTHING WE CAN ADD TO WHAT JESUS DID FOR US ON THE CROSS. YOUR ANSWER SHOULD HAVE BEEN "BECAUSE OF JESUS, I DESERVE TO BE HERE". ANYTHING WE TRY TO ADD TO WHAT HE DID JUST BELITTLES ALL THAT HE HAS DONE. HE DID IT ALL.
YOU KNOW BACK IN JESUS' DAY ON EARTH, THE JEWS WERE REALLY ZEALOUS FOR THE THINGS OF GOD. HOWEVER, THEY DIDN'T HAVE THE FAITH IN HIM TO COMPLETE THEM. THEY THOUGHT THEY HAD TO EARN GOD'S FAVOR. I THINK THEIR RELIGION, AND ITS TRADITIONS, GOT IN THEIR WAY THROUGHOUT THE YEARS.
NOW THE GENTILES WERE DIFFERENT AS THEY HAD NO TRADITIONAL RELIGION AND WHEN THEY HEARD THE GOSPEL MESSAGE THAT JESUS PAID FOR THEIR SINS, THEY JUST BELIEVED AND ACCEPTED IT AS A GIFT, WHICH IS WHAT IT IS. THAT IS WHAT WE HAVE TO DO TODAY.
FOR YOU THAT DON'T KNOW JESUS PERSONALLY, NOW WOULD BE A GOOD TIME. HE IS HOLDING OUT THE GIFT OF SALVATION TO YOU AND ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS BELIEVE HE DIED FOR YOUR SINS, WAS BURIED AND ROSE FROM THE DEAD. IT WOULD BE THE BEST DECISION YOU HAVE EVER MADE OR WILL EVER MAKE.
JUST CONFESS YOUR SINS TO HIM AND THANK HIM FOR HIS FORGIVENESS AND FOR DYING FOR YOU. TELL HIM YOU WANT HIM TO BE YOUR SAVIOR. BELIEVE THAT HE DID IT ALL FOR YOU. THERE IS NOTHING YOU NEED TO DO BUT TO BELIEVE AND RECEIVE IT. THAT IS ALL.
HEARING WHAT HE DID FOR YOU SHOULD MAKE YOU WANT HIM THAT MUCH MORE. HE LOVES YOU AND WANTS YOU TO LOVE HIM. THE CHOICE IS YOURS......CHOOSE LIFE. THAT IS WHAT THE LORD TELLS US IN DEUTERONOMY 30:19 WHERE HE SAYS "I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live." WILL YOU CHOOSE LIFE TODAY?
GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
