GOOD REASONS TO CONSIDER

SOME GOOD REASONS TO GET SERIOUS ABOUT JESUS AND THE BIBLE.
(don't read this if you are not concerned about life after death, though you need it too.)

IF
If Jesus is God, the Bible is right.
If Jesus is the Son of God, the Bible is right.
If Jesus is virgin born, the Bible is right.
If Jesus died on the cross, the Bible is right.
If Jesus physically rose from the dead, the Bible is right.
If the Holy Spirit is God, the Bible is right.
If the Bible is right, there is only one hope for salvation, because only the God of the Bible has provided salvation.


SINCE
Since the Bible is right, we understand why Christianity is the most reasonable, most peaceful, most voluntarily embraced religious teaching in the world.
Since the Bible is right, we understand why Christianity is the most powerful force for good that the world has ever seen.

OUR PROBLEM
We have all sinned.
We all deserve to be separated from God, forever.

GOD'S PROVISION
God loves us.
God gave His only begotten Son to rescue us from sin, separation and eternal suffering.
Christ died and rose again for us all.
God gives eternal life to whoever believes on Christ, turns from their sins, confesses their sins to Christ and confesses Christ to others, and by faith follows Christ.
Judgment is coming to all who reject Christ.

MAYBE
Maybe you have a lifetime to make this choice (but who knows how long your lifetime will be).
Maybe things will get better in our world, rather than get worse.
Maybe you will have a deathbed conversion.

BUT CONSIDER
But none of these are very good bets.
And why gamble with your eternal soul?
ALSO, the fact is, life does not begin until it is the life lived in a right relationship with Christ.
Another ALSO, if you successfully get saved at a late date, what about all those loved one you have led in rejecting Christ.

BOTTOM LINE
What a loss to not be saved.
