Wanna Live Forever?

Wanna Live Forever?

Where will YOU spend eternity?		Welcome to LifeLine Ministries of Belize, Inc.

The most important decision we make in this life is where we'll spend our eternal life. When we have made that choice, we're not only prepared to die... were finally prepared to live! "Then I saw a new heaven... I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Now the dwelling of God is with men, and he will live with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away." And he carried me away in the Spirit to a mountain great and high, and showed me the Holy City, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God. It shone with the glory of God, and its brilliance was like that of a very precious jewel, like a jasper, clear as crystal. It had a great, high wall with twelve gates, and with twelve angels at the gates... The wall was made of jasper, and the city of pure gold, as pure as glass. The foundations of the city walls were decorated with every kind of precious stone... jasper, sapphire, chalcedony, emerald, sardonyx, carnelian, chrysolite, beryl, topaz, chrysoprase, jacinth, amethyst. The twelve gates were twelve pearls, each gate made of a single pearl. The great street of the city was of pure gold, like transparent glass... Nothing impure will ever enter it, nor will anyone who does what is shameful or deceitful, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb's book of life." The Holy Bible--Revelation 21 Heaven will be great John said! But not just because of what's there. Yea, sure they'll be streets paved with gold, and those huge city walls are made of 12 different jewels. But John said heaven would be great because of what's not there too. He said there'd be no more crying or pain. He said there'd be no more sadness, or death or mourning. What John was trying to say was there'd be no more sickness, no more cancer or chemotherapy, no more Aids or meds, no more heart attacks or strokes. He meant there'd be no more car wrecks, broken bones or wheel chairs. He meant there'd be no more jail cells, no more broken hearts, no more divorce... no more pain. He said God will wipe every tear from our eyes. Yea, heaven will be great, but not just because of what's there, but because of what's not there too. Heaven is where I'm going! I already made reservations. If you want to go to heaven with me, why don't you read the following information and just do what it says. And if you do, your name will be written in heaven too and you can tell people your reservations are made. God bless you, Chuck Kleffman Missionary to Belize

Wanna live forever?

Here's how. The first thing you need to do is realize that God loves you and has a plan for your life.

His love includes you

"For God so loved the world, that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have everlasting life" -- John 3:16

He has new life for you

"I have come that they might have life, and have it to the fullest." -- John 10:10

The second thing you need to know is that sin seperates you from God.

SIN is walking our own way in rebellion against God's will. When we walk away from God, we walk away from life.

Everyone has sinned

"For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." -- Romans 3:23

Sin brings death

"For the wages of sin is death..." -- Romans 6:23
As sinners we futilely try to find life's true meaning in the wrong ways and places.

Our own efforts cannot save us

"For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith, and this not from yourselves--it is the gift of God, not by works, so that no one can boast." Ephesians 2:8-9

Third, you need to recogonize that Jesus Christ died and rose again for your sins.

He died in our place

"But God demonstrates His love to us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us." -- Romans 5:8

Jesus Christ is the way to new life

"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!" -- 2 Corinthians 5:17

He gives inner peace

"We have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ." -- Romans 5:1

He gives freedom

"So as the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed." -- John 8:36

He gives eternal life

"But the gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord." -- Romans 6:23

Now the forth thing you do is repent and ask God to forgive you.

Admit and confess your sins to God

"He who conceals his sins does not prosper, but whoever confesses and renounces them finds mercy." -- Proverbs 28:13

Repentance means

To acknowledge your sins

To be sorry for your sins

To confess your sins

To be willing to give up your sins

To have your life changed by Christ

Forgiveness is promised

"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." -- I John 1:9

And finally place your trust in Chrsit and receive Him as your Savior.

Christ is ready

"Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in." -- Revelation 3:20

Receive him now

Yet to all who received Him, to those who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God.

What to pray

Lord Jesus, I want to have life. I know that I have sinned. I need your forgiveness. I believe that You died and rose again for my sins. I now accept You as my personal Savior. I will leave behind my sinful life. I know that Your grace and power will enable me to live for You. Thank You Jesus, for saving me and for giving me a new life.

For help in living a meaningful life in Christ:

Be assured of Christs forgiveness.

Read your Bible and pray daily.

Find a concerned pastor and other Christians.

Become a vital part of that church.

Share your faith with others.
