Confession of Faith

Do you know for sure that you are going to be with God in Heaven?

If God were to ask you, "WHY SHOULD I LET YOU INTO MY HEAVEN?" What would you say?

Would you like to know for sure? The Bible says there are things you need to know about eternal life: ETERNAL LIFE IS A FREE GIFT , and because heaven is a free gift, like any other genuine gift…it is not earned or deserved. Why is it that no one can earn his/her way to heaven? Because… MAN IS A SINNER , and because of this…man cannot save himself. However, in spite of our sin… GOD IS MERCIFUL   But the same Bible which tells us that God loves us also tells us that God is just.

Jesus Christ came to earth and lived a sinless life, but while on earth what did He do? He died on the cross to pay the penalty for our sins and rose from the grave to purchase a place for us in heaven.

FAITH IS THE KEY THAT OPENS THE DOOR TO HEAVEN

What does this mean?

*Transfer your trust from what you have been doing to what CHRIST has done for you on HIS cross. 

*Accept Christ as Savior - Open the "door" to your heart and invite HIM in.

*Receive Jesus Christ as Lord - Give him the "driver's seat" and "controls" of your life, not the "back seat."

*Repent-Be willing to TURN from anything that is not pleasing to HIM. He will reveal HIS will to you as you grow in your relationship  with Him..

Would you like to receive the gift of eternal life? If so, will you pray after me?

"God thank you for loving me.  I confess that I have sinned against you.  I believe that your son Jesus Christ died on a cross to pay for my sins, and that You raised Jesus from the dead.  I now put my faith only in Jesus to forgive me and save me from my sins.  I confess that Jesus is Lord.  Thank you for your gift of eternal life.  In Jesus name I pray.  Amen
