| Let me
be quick and to the point. You can get right with God, and you can know you're right
with God. That's why God gave us the Bible--not to condemn us, or simply to know the
proper way to behave, love our neighbor, etc. but so that we would know the answers to the
Three Great Questions that every thinking person asks himself or herself... *What Am I Here For
(is there a purpose, is there an afterlife...)?
*What is
Wrong with This Place (why do the innocent suffer...)?
*Is There a
Solution, a Plan of Salvation?
Jesus Christ is the solution. The Bible also
answers the other questions, and you might check our articles, and/or links to examine the
subject further. But if you want to fill the emptiness in your heart right now, believe in
Jesus...
*Recognize
Your Need, and His Ability to Meet It
*Give Your
Heart and Life to Him in a Simple Prayer
*Determine
to Change Whatever Needs Changing, to Live According to the Teachings of the Bible, the
Word of God
A Sample Prayer:
Lord, I need you in my life. I have sinned and
otherwise made my life a wreck, both ignorantly and purposely. I believe you are who You
said, the Son of God and Savior of mankind. Please come into my heart and life today. I
make you my Lord. Help me to change, to follow you, and be your disciple. In Jesus' name,
Amen.
And this is the testimony: that 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 the Son of God does not have life. These things I have written to you who believe in
the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may
continue to believe in the name of the Son of God. (I Jn 5:11-13)
