Meanwhile you and the rest of the heathen and apostate dittoheads keep
doing like you have been for the last 50 years expecting different
results. Yeah that's the ticket.

No doubt many smart, liberty loving, logical, "God Guns n Guts" people
have deceased relatives in Hell now hearing "neither will they be
persuaded, though one rose from the dead." (Lk 16)

God’s Simple Plan of Salvation

My Friend: I am asking you the most important question of life. Your
joy or your sorrow for all eternity depends upon your answer. The
question is: Are you saved? It is not a question of how good you are,
nor if you are a church member, but are you saved? Are you sure you
will go to Heaven when you die?

God says in order to go to Heaven, you must be born again. In John
3:7, Jesus said to Nicodemus, “Ye must be born again.”

In the Bible God gives us the plan of how to be born again which means
to be saved. His plan is simple! You can be saved today. How?

First, my friend, you must realize you are a sinner. “For all have
sinned, and come short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23).

Because you are a sinner, you are condemned to death. “For the wages
[payment] of sin is death” (Romans 6:23). This includes eternal
separation from God in Hell.

“ . . . it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the
judgment” (Hebrews 9:27).

But God loved you so much He gave His only begotten Son, Jesus, to
bear your sin and die in your place. “ . . . He hath made Him [Jesus,
Who knew no sin] to be sin for us . . . that we might be made the
righteousness of God in Him” (2 Corinthians 5:21).

Jesus had to shed His blood and die. “For the life of the flesh is in
the blood” (Lev. 17:11). “ . . . without shedding of blood is no
remission [pardon]” (Hebrews 9:22).

“ . . . God commendeth His love toward us, in that, while we were yet
sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans 5:8).

Although we cannot understand how, God said my sins and your sins were
laid upon Jesus and He died in our place. He became our substitute. It
is true. God cannot lie.

My friend, “God . . . commandeth all men everywhere to repent” (Acts
17:30). This repentance is a change of mind that agrees with God that
one is a sinner, and also agrees with what Jesus did for us on the
Cross.

In Acts 16:30-31, the Philippian jailer asked Paul and Silas: “ . . .
‘Sirs, what must I do to be saved?’ And they said, ‘Believe on the
Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved . . . .’ ”

Simply believe on Him as the one who bore your sin, died in your
place, was buried, and whom God resurrected. His resurrection
powerfully assures that the believer can claim everlasting life when
Jesus is received as Savior.

“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” (John 1:12).

“For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be
saved.” (Romans 10:13).

Whosoever includes you. Shall be saved means not maybe, nor can, but
shall be saved.

Surely, you realize you are a sinner. Right now, wherever you are,
repenting, lift your heart to God in prayer.

In Luke 18:13, the sinner prayed: “God be merciful to me a sinner.”
Just pray: “Oh God, I know I am a sinner. I believe Jesus was my
substitute when He died on the Cross. I believe His shed blood, death,
burial, and resurrection were for me. I now receive Him as my Savior.
I thank You for the forgiveness of my sins, the gift of salvation and
everlasting life, because of Your merciful grace. Amen.”

Just take God at His word and claim His salvation by faith. Believe,
and you will be saved. No church, no lodge, no good works can save
you. Remember, God does the saving. All of it!

God’s simple plan of salvation is: You are a sinner. Therefore, unless
you believe on Jesus Who died in your place, you will spend eternity
in Hell. If you believe on Him as your crucified, buried, and risen
Savior, you receive forgiveness for all of your sins and His gift of
eternal salvation by faith.

You say, “Surely, it cannot be that simple.” Yes, that simple! It is
scriptural. It is God’s plan. My friend, believe on Jesus and receive
Him as Savior today.

If His plan is not perfectly clear, read this tract over and over,
without laying it down, until you understand it. Your soul is worth
more than all the world.

“For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world and
lose his own soul?” (Mark 8:36).

Be sure you are saved. If you lose your soul, you miss Heaven and lose
all. Please! Let God save you this very moment.

God’s power will save you, keep you saved, and enable you to live a
victorious Christian life. “There hath no temptation taken you but
such as is common to man: but God is faithful, Who will not suffer you
to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation
also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it” (1
Corinthians 10:13).

Do not trust your feelings. They change. Stand on God’s promises. They
never change. After you are saved, there are three things to practice
daily for spiritual growth:


Pray -- you talk to God.
Read your Bible -- God talks to you.
Witness -- you talk for God.
You should be baptized in obedience to the Lord Jesus Christ as a
public testimony of your salvation, and then unite with a Bible-
believing church without delay. “Be not thou therefore ashamed of the
testimony of our Lord . . . .” (2 Timothy 1:8)

“Whosoever therefore shall confess [testify of] Me before men, him
will I confess also before My Father which is in heaven” (Matthew
10:32).
