The most important decision you'll make in your entire life

Is it schooling? Who you will marry? A money decision? No, none of these.

The most important decision is "the choice that you make on where you will spend eternity."

Option #1 Heaven: With God — In perfect peace forever, having exciting and meaningful things to do.
Option #2 In Hell: — Choosing to be without God in never ending judgement for sins. There is no escaping, no parole, no time off for good behavior. It is eternal, without end.

THE GOOD NEWS:
God wants you to choose Option #1, to be saved from Option #2. God has made it easy and free to do so but unfortionately, so many don't want God in their life at all.
God isn't going to force you to love Him or to be with Him when you don't want to be. That would be against His nature. Is is your choice. If you don't choose then you've chosen Option #2. For you will have no legal remedy to have those sins legally wiped out without taking God's pardon.

In order to be accepted by God and escape the path to Hell, we have to get clean of sin. Why? Because the sin we have, separates us from the perfect and Holy God, making us filthy to Him, so much so that He couldn't look on it for eternity. God cannot have sin in Heaven and there is only one way to go to Heaven and that is through The Son of God, Jesus Christ. God worked out legal grounds to personally save us from judgement.

THE PARDON
Legally, a Pardon can be rejected by someone. They are free to reject it in law. God is Holy, that is His primary nature. God will not do anything illegal. He worked out legal grounds to save us from judgement and gives us the opportunity to choose Him. One may choose to take the pardon to be saved or not, there is no other way to escape judgement. Those that are sent to hell choose to be eternally separated from God and have no legal remedy to escape judgement, for the Holy God must judge eventually otherwise He is not Holy. The Pardon God gives is far more than just saving us from judgement, but God gives us eternity with Him as well.

The good news is, God has made a way, and it happens to be an easy way, to clean us up, to make us acceptable to live with the Holy God throughout eternity. It's a way that anyone can accomplish.

God sent His Son Jesus, to earth to die a horrendous death as a sacrifice, as payment for our sins and make that way for us to be washed from sin in God's eyes. By shedding His blood, dying in our place, as a sacrifice to pay for the sin that we've committed Jesus made the offering for sin needed for us to be saved from eternal judgement in Hell, Option #2. That is, only if we accept it.


How to be cleaned up from sin and be acceptable to God:
You have to make the decision and ask God for it. (See Bible verses below). I want to ask you to accept Jesus into your life right now, without any delay, where you sit. Ask Him into your life, accept what Jesus did by shedding His blood as payment for your sins. You do this in a simple prayer, which you can pray right now to God. Make the prayer yourself and mean it. Or pray the following:

"God in Heaven, I accept your payment for my sins, I ask Jesus into my life, cleanse me, wash me of my sins and accept me into heaven I pray. I accept that Jesus is Lord. He is the Son of God. He shed His blood for my sins on the cross as a sacrifice acceptable to God so that I can be forgiven. Jesus rose again from the grave three days later. Jesus' tomb is empty. I believe in my heart that God raised Jesus from the dead. In Jesus' name I pray,
Amen."

Here is what the Bible says:

John 3:16
Revelation 3:20a
John 1:12
"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me." "But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:"

"That 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. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."

Romans: Chapter 10 verse 9-13 (KJV)

" That 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. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.'"

Romans: Chapter 10 verse 9-13 KJV


Jesus rose from the grave 3 days after being crucified. What's more, the tomb was guarded by many Roman solders on request by those wanting Jesus killed.
"Pilate said to them, 'Take a guard; go, make it as secure as you know how'" "They went and made the grave secure, and along with the guard they set a seal on the stone"
Matthew 27:64-66

Because the Jewish leaders warned Pilate that Jesus claimed he would rise from the dead after 3 days, Pilate became directly involved in making sure the tomb was secure and nobody could steal Jesus' body to prevent further problems in his jurisdiction. The Jewish leaders also would have gone overboard in making the tomb absolutely secure. There would have been more than enough solders on guard to handle the 11 remaining disciples and thousands of followers of Jesus that they feared would take the body by force if necessary. Likely a absolute minimum of 16 soldiers, but perhaps over 100, were ordered to stand in a maximum security guard at the tomb. These soldiers were not allowed to fall asleep by Roman law while on guard. They would have been executed had they fallen asleep. Regardless, even if they had all fallen asleep, they would have woken up if someone had tried to move a 2 ton rock out of the way. Plus, anyone breaking the seal on Jesus' tomb would be crucified under Roman Law.
Jesus rose from the dead, just as He said He would.

Jesus, The Son of God, The Creator, paid for our sins and his tomb is empty. Accept Him into your heart and have your sins forgiven today!
