Bridge to Life
The bible teaches that God loves all men and wants them to know Him. But man is separated from God and His love.
"God is on one side and all the people on the other side." -- 1 Timothy 2:5
Q.) Why is man separated from God and His love?
A.) Because he has sinned against God.
"Your sins have cut you off from God."-- Isaiah 59:2
"All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God"-- Roman 3:23
Q.) Where does this separation lead?
A.) This separation leads only to death and certain judgment.
"Man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgement."--Hebrews 9:27
"Those who do not know God... will be punished with everlasting destruction and shut our from the presence of the Lord."--2 Thessalonians 1:8-9
But, there is a solution.
Jesus Christ, who died on the cross for our sins, is the way to God.
"God is on one side and all the people on the other side, and Christ Jesus, Himself man, is between them to bring them together, by giving His life for all mankind." -- 1 Timothy 2:5-6
"Christ died for sins once for all.. to bing you to God." -- 1 Peter 3:18
Q.) Does this include everone?
A.) Yes, But only those who personally recieve Jesus Christ into their lives, trusting Him to forgive their sins, can cross this bridge.
"To all who recieved Him, to those who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God."--John 1:12
"Jesus says, 'Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I wil go in and eat with him, and he with me.'"--Revelations 3:20
Q.) How does a person receive Jesus Christ?
"Jesus said, 'you may aks Me for anything in My name, and I will do it."--John 14:14
A.) Therefore, if you pray sincerely, asking him this:
Lord Jesus, please come into my life and be my Savior and lord. please forgive my sins, and give me the gift of eternal life.
If you have invited Jesus Christ into your life, the Bible says you now have eternal life.
"God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. he who has the Son has life; he who does not have th eSon of God does noth have life."--1 John 5:11-12
