YOUR PERSONAL INVITATION<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n

\u201cDraw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded.\u201d James 4:8

\u201cCome now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.\u201d Isaiah 1:18

GOD WANTS TO SAVE YOU!!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Dear Friend \u00a0\u2013\u00a0 God says:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAnd as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:\u201d Heb. 9: 27 \u201cJesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.\u201d John 3:3\u00a0 \u201cThe fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.\u201d Prov. 9:10<\/mark><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00a0 You, my friend, have a decision to make. Your eternal destiny will depend on that decision.\u00a0 Whether you repent and believe in the Lord Jesus Christ the Almighty Creator of all things, the Saviour of all men, or reject Him and go thy own way. “There\u00a0is\u00a0a\u00a0way\u00a0which seemeth right unto\u00a0a\u00a0man, but the end\u00a0thereof\u00a0are the\u00a0ways of death.\u201d\u00a0 Prov. 14:12<\/mark><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00a0 You see, my friend, man has come up with many vain and empty ideas, whereby he believes everything is just fine. Whether their confidence is: a self-righteous religion, a science so falsely called, or<\/a> any who puts their hope or faith in themselves, will find ruin at the end of life\u2019s journey.\u00a0\u00a0 We ask people this question, \u201cIf you were to die and stand before the Lord at the gate of heaven and He asked you \u201cWhy should I let you into heaven?\u201d\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0 What would your answer be, my friend?\u00a0 Most answer, \u201cWell, I hope by what I have done…\u201d (Feeding the poor, giving to charities, keeping the sacraments, getting baptized, and so on.) People seem to think they are okay with what they do or have done. These are the ways of death, my friend. The Lord says, \u201cNot by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us,\u2026\u201d Titus 3:5 <\/mark><\/em> Salvation is God\u2019s gift. \u201cFor by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Eph. 2:8<\/mark><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

One must repent. \u201cI tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.\u201d Luke 13:5<\/mark><\/em> Repentance is not something you do or don\u2019t do. Repentance is a change of your heart and mind. The fruit of true repentance and faith is the change God produces in you to be conformed to the image of His Son, Jesus Christ, producing obedience to Him. \u201cTestifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.\u201d Acts 20:21<\/mark><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Seeing yourself lost and sinful, deserving of hell. Crying out with a godly sorrow for your sin to God. \u201cFor godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.\u201d II Cor. 7:10 <\/mark><\/em> Godly sorrow for sin worketh repentance (change of mind) to salvation (faith in Christ Jesus) by which God changes your heart and behavior to be like His Son Jesus Christ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

God wants all to repent. <\/strong>\u201cAnd the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:\u201d Acts 17:30<\/mark><\/em> Realize and acknowledge you\u2019re lost, headed for a devil\u2019s hell. \u201cFor all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;\u201d Rom. 3:23 \u201cAs it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:\u201d Rom. 3:10<\/mark><\/em> Sin destroys, God saves, giving life eternal through His Blessed Son Jesus Christ. \u201cFor the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.\u201d Rom. 6:23<\/mark><\/em> The choice is yours, which will you choose: Life (Christ Jesus) or death (Hell).

A Philippian jailer wisely chose. Acts 16:27-31 \u201cAnd the keeper of the prison awaking out of his sleep, and seeing the prison doors open, he drew out his sword, and would have killed himself, supposing that the prisoners had been fled. But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm: for we are all here. Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas, And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.\u201d<\/em><\/mark> Glory! Hallelujah! Salvation came to that poor jailer that day! Simple child like faith in Christ Jesus is all.

You, also my friend, Jesus Christ came to save. The Lord wants to save you! \u201cBut God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.\u201d Rom. 5:8<\/mark><\/em>

The Lord Jesus Christ has paid for our great and awful sin debt, my friend. John 1:29 \u201cThe next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.\u201d<\/mark><\/em> Yes! Amen! He wants all to repent, come unto Him, and believe the gospel\u2026.The Good News! I Cor. 15:3-4 \u201cFor I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:\u201d<\/mark><\/em> God will save all that will come unto Him by His Son Jesus Christ \u201cAll that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.\u201d John 6:37<\/mark><\/em>

Salvation explained in one verse. Is. 53:6 \u201cAll we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.\u201d<\/mark><\/em> Yes, you go into this verse lost and come out, if believing, saved. Hallelujah. By believing in the Lord Jesus Christ the Son of God: that He took your sin upon Him at Calvary, fully paying with His precious blood your sin debt, you become born of the Holy Spirit of Christ (John 3:5). Born a child of God in Christ, inheriting eternal life. Christ Jesus declared: \u201cVerily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.\u201d John 6:47 <\/mark><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also in Romans 10:9 \u201cThat 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.\u201d<\/em><\/mark> and Rom. 10:13 \u201cFor whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.\u201d<\/mark><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is our lovely Lord Jesus\u2019 promise.
Call upon him now, delay not a second, dear friend. The Lord will hear and save you today.
Once you have trusted in and received the Lord Jesus Christ as your personal Saviour; find a good Bible (KJV, if one) believing church. Start your new found faith in Christ, growing in His Word.
