Words of Life

Has anyone ever shown you from the Bible, how you can know for certain that you are going to Heaven? The Bible contains bad news and good news.

First the bad news: “All have sinned, and fall short of the Glory of God.” Romans 3:23. This means we have all come short of God’s standard of perfection. Romans 6:23 further says; “The wages of sin is death” – simply put, this means we have earned death, and to be seperated from God forever.

However, there is Good News. Romans 5:8 says “God demonstrates his own love towards us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”

Suppose you are in the hospital dying of cancer and I come to you and say, “let’s take the cancer cells from your body and put them into my body,” if that were possible. I would die in your place, I would die instead of you.

The Bible says Christ took the penalty we deserved for sin, placed it upon himself, and died in our place. You can be saved through faith in Christ: Ephesians 2:8-9 says; For by grace you have been saved through faith and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast”.

Just as you trust a chair to hold you through no effort of your own, so you must trust Jesus Christ to get you to Heaven through no effort of your own.
