Eternal Life Is A Gift

The Lord Jesus Christ said the full price for the salvation of your soul. He 'gave himself for our sins,' (Gal. 1:4a). Jesus, the Son of God, 'loved me, and gave himself for me,' (Gal 2:20b). Now because 'by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.' there remains no price for us to pay! (Heb. 9:12b). We are 'justified freely by his grace.' (Rom. 3:24a).

"It is finished:" (John 19:30b).
Doing good works cannot save you.
Salvation is "Not of works, lest any man should boast." (Eph. 2:9). God "hath saved us, and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given to us in Christ Jesus before the world began." (II Tim. 1:9b).

The Bible, God's Word, says, "As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:" (Rom. 3:10). "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." (Rom. 3:23). Sin is the problem, and even belonging to a church will not take it away. Jesus Christ Himself said, "Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." (john 3:3b).

As the Bible says, "Therefore we conclude that man is a justified by faith without the deeds of the law." (Rom. 3:28). "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourself: it is the gift of God:" (Eph. 2:8).
The Bible says, "And as it is appointed unto men to die, but after this the judgement:" (Heb. 9:27). You really don't know for sure how much time is left of your life. "Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morro. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appears for a little time, and then vanishes away." (James 4:14). Stay Bless

YOU CANNOT SAVE YOURSELF

The Bible says, "Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law," (Gal. 2:16a). It also says, "we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags;" (Gra. 64:6a).

SALVATION IS FREE TO ALL.

The Bible say, "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." (Rom. 10:13). The Bible says, "Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinner," (I Tim. 1:15b). For Christ also has once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God," (I Peter 3:18a).

The Bible says, "And the smoke of their torment ascends up forever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night," (Rev. 14:11a). "For the wages of sin is death;" (Rom. 6:23a). This death is more than just physical death. It is an "eternal burning!"

The Bible says, "But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone: which is the second death." (Rev. 21:8)
