ARE YOU 100% SURE THAT IF YOU DIED TODAY THAT YOU WOULD GO TO HEAVEN?

THERE ARE SOME THINGS THAT YOU SHOULD KNOW:

1. REALIZE THAT YOU ARE A SINNER AND IN NEED OF A SAVIOR:

Ro 3:23 "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;"

Ro 3:10 "As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:"

This all began with the story of Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden. God created them perfect, there was no death or sorrow. God told them not to eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. They disobeyed God and as a result, sin entered into the world. The pain which this world sees is the result of sin.

2. BECAUSE OF OUR SINS, WE DIE BOTH SPIRITUALLY AND PHYSICALLY, BUT GOD SENT HIS SON TO TAKE OUR PUNISHMENT AND GIVE US A CHANCE NOT TO HAVE TO GO TO HELL.

Ro 6:23 "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."

Ro 5:8 "But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us."

Every person who has ever lived is a sinner and is not righteous because we do bad things. A sin is a crime against God, just as if you steal something at the store, it is punishable by going to jail. It's the same thing with sin. Even if we lie one time, the punishment is hell, which is a prison for those who commit crimes against God. No matter how well you live your life from then on, you have already committed a sin which will be punished if you are not pardoned. If you commit a crime, and then live as a good citizen you still will go to jail for the crime you committed. Right? Just as the president can pardon a crime so you won't go to jail, Jesus can pardon your sins so that you do not go to hell, and can go to heaven when you die.

3. IF WE WILL ACCEPT JESUS CHRIST AS OUR LORD WITH OUR MOUTHS AND BELIEVE IN OUR HEARTS THAT HE ROSE FROM THE DEAD, BY DOING THIS WE ARE RECEIVING HIM:

Ro 10:9,10 "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."

Joh 1:12 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: {power: or, the right, or, privilege}
(KJV)

You cannot get to heaven by being a good person, going to church, baptism or any other way other than by turning to Jesus and asking Him to forgive you for your sins and save you. While these are good things to do, some people believe that they will get to heaven if they do these things, but the bible says that there is only one way to heaven and that is through receiving what Jesus Christ did on the cross for you.

Will you do that today? If you will, you can be 100% sure that you will go to heaven when you die.

DO YOU BELIEVE THAT JESUS CHRIST DIED ON THE CROSS AND ROSE FROM THE DEAD FOR YOUR SINS? DO YOU ACCEPT WHAT HE DID FOR YOU TO PAY FOR YOUR SINS?

4. If you are willing to receive Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior please pray this right now, from your heart to God,

"Dear LORD JESUS, I believe that YOU died on the Cross and Rose from the dead for my sins. I ask you to come into my heart and forgive me for my sins, take me to heaven when I die. I now receive You as my Lord and Savior. Thank You for saving me. In Jesus holy name, Amen."

If you prayed that prayer from your heart to God, and meant it with all of your heart, you are now a child of God and will go to heaven when you die.


Now that you are on your way to heaven, you should attend a bible believing church and follow in baptism.

To answer the question. I don't need direction. Just follow the light. If you get lost, that's your problem.

I've had so many theological convsersations with believers, atheists, agnostics that it's not even funny. So I figure I'm goin to Heaven anyways.

Wouldn't it be a lot easier to get to heaven if you just followed that big bright light that looks like a train at the end of a tunnel?

A prayer won't get you into Heaven.

It will if it's from your heart to God, like the one in this first post. It sums up everything that the bible says about how to be saved.

You are not God. This does NOT guarantee getting into Heaven. The Bible says that false prophets have a special place reserved for them in Hell, and will be thrown away along with Lucifer and his demons.

Have fun.

So, you believe what the bible says about false prophets, but not what it says about salvation? Who is the false prophet here?

If everyone went to Heaven based on saying just a prayer, American Christianity wouldn't be at stake, here.

You're honestly bringing people away from God by spamming stupid, idiotic threads. Do you honestly think this will bring someone to God?

Damn but we should write a Createblog Bible.

Thou shalt not Spam.
Thou shalt not post inanities.
Thou shalt not use Frodo's name in vain.
Thou shalt not post anything too taxing in The Lounge.

And you need to go read your bible and see what it actually says about salvation. It's only through Jesus Christ and what He did for you one the cross to pay for your sins. The bible says that if you confess with your mouth Jesus and believe it in your heart you will be saved. It says for Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

Isn't that what the prayer does if done from the heart?

Please go read your bible. You don't know what you are talking about and are hindering the work of the Lord.

While having faith in Jesus Christ alone is good enough to be saved, but you're missing a huge chunk of the Bible, my friend. There are steps to follow after accepting Jesus. A person cannot say he/she accepts Jesus and continue to commit sins consciously because he/she would be turning away God's grace. SALVATION IS ABOUT CONTINUING YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH CHRIST (not just through a single prayer).

That's what Podo meant. It seems to me that Podo makes more sense than you in this.

Salvation comes by faith alone in Jesus Christ. The NATURAL result of savation is a continued relationship with Jesus Christ. The relationship doesn't save. The relationship is a natural result of salvation. You're getting things backwards and borderline adding works to salvation, and YES if you pray that prayer to God from your heart, you most certainly WILL be saved. You just blirt things out of your mouth without bible to back up what you say. Stop hindering God's work.

Tee hee, this is almost cute, the pot calling the kettle black and all. You're the kind of Christian that shames others of the same faith. Your language alone is proof that God's grace isn't in you. Seems to me you're only good at asking God for forgiveness through prayer and not so good and keeping up your relationship with Him. He doesn't mind this onesided relationship because He loves you, but if you're going to try to "do His work", you gotta be more educated let God guide you in this rather than do your own thing and say that you're working for God. You give people the wrong impression.

You said I didn't use the Bible as evidence. Fine then =) give me a quote from the Bible where it says you can be saved by having faith ALONE. You see, you don't have evidence for your silliness either. Don't be so prideful and admit your lack of knowledge on the matter.

Of course faith is essential to salvation. We've established that by now, haven't we? In fact, the quotes you provided are just some of the ones that stress the necessity of faith. But that doesn't mean you end it with faith. Remember James 2:19:20 says "Even devils believe. Are they saved?".

Obviously, relationship with Christ isn't as "NATURAL" as you claim. It is something every man must work to achieve. We are tempted everyday and it takes WORK to let God help you through these temptations. There's nothing "NATURAL" about it because God gave us free will: the choice to accept Jesus and maintain a relationship with him, the choice to accept Jesus but not maintain the relationship, the choice to push him away completely... etc. These aren't "NATURAL" choices.

Anything else you want to say to me?

EDIT:
Oh, and one last thing. Revelation 22:18:19, "For I testify unto every man that hearth the words of the prophecy of this book, if any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: And, if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book."

So, don't take the Bible OUT OF CONTEXT the way you just did, okay?
