HOW TO KNOW THAT YOU ARE GOING TO HEAVEN!
The Bible clearly shows how a person can know that they are going to heaven. You can know these truths. Take the time to read the following to receive the greatest gift available to you. Only you can do it for you! It is a simple thing called FAITH!
F is for FORGIVENESS.
We cannot have eternal life and heaven without God's forgiveness.
The Bible says: "In Him [meaning Jesus] we have redemption through
His blood, the forgiveness of sins. Ephesians 1:7a
A is for AVAILABLE.
Forgiveness is available. It is?
AVAILABLE FOR ALL.
I is for IMPOSSIBLE.
It is impossible for God to allow sin into heaven.
BUT NOT AUTOMATIC
In the Bible Jesus says: "Not everyone who says to me, Lord, Lord,
shall enter the kingdom of heaven? Matthew 7:21
GOD IS?
LOVE - "For God so loved the world, He gave his only Son,
that whoever believes in him should not perish but have everlasting
life." John 3:16
JUST- "For judgement is without mercy? James 2:13a
MAN IS SINFUL- "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory
of God." Romans 3:23
QUESTION:
But how can a sinful person enter heaven, were God allows no sin?
T is for TURN.
QUESTION:
If you were driving down the road and someone asked you to turn,
what would he or she be asking you to do?
Simply, they would be asking you to change directions.
Turn means repent.
TURN from something? sin and self
The Bible says: "But unless you repent, you will all
likewise perish." Luke 13:3b.
TURN to Someone; trust Christ only
The Bible tells us that, "Christ died for our sins according
to the Scriptures; and that He was buried, and rose again
the third day according to the Scriptures." 1Corinthians 15:3b-4
The Bible also says, "If you confess with your mouth the
Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that
God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved." Romans 10:9
H is for HEAVEN.
HEAVEN is eternal life. Heaven is HERE.
In the Bible Jesus says: "I have come that they may have life, and that they
may have it more abunantly." John 10:10B
HEREAFTER
In the Bible Jesus says: "And if I go and prepare a place for you,
I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am,
there you may be also." John 14:3
The above shows you that you can be sure you are going to heaven by admitting
that you are a sinner, believing on the Lord Jesus Christ, and committing your life
to Him. You do this by coming to Him (Jesus Christ) in a conversation that is
called prayer. If you would like to receive forgiveness of your sins and know for
sure that you will go to heaven someday, you can pray this simple prayer:
Dear Lord, I admit that I am a sinner. I believe that Jesus died
to forgive me for my sins. I ask you to forgive me for my sins and
give me eternal life. I commit my life to following the teachings
of Jesus Christ, and I thank you now for saving me. I pray this
in the Name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
If you have prayed this prayer, contact someone at

know so that you can be encouraged and helped in your
newfound life in Christ. God bless you upon this
great moment in your life! The best is yet to come.
