There is no other religion under heaven and earth
that offers eternal life as a free gift of God’s grace. Only Jesus. And
Christianity is not a religion, but a relationship with a living God. There are
religions that believe we can get to heaven on our own. Others believe we need
to come back and live more lives before we achieve a heavenly state. Others
believe they need to pray a certain number of times each day, to follow the
rules, to live a “good” life.
The truth
is, none of us are good enough to work our way to heaven. The God of the
universe is holy and perfect and just. And we are not.
For
all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Romans 3:23
Don’t buy
into rules and religion. Jesus offers us the finished work of the cross. He
paid the price for all of us and all He asks is for faith. To believe He is the
Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
For
God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son that whoever believes
in Him, will not perish but will have eternal life. John 3:16
Father,
What a gift. It is amazing grace. The gift you have
given us in Your one and only Son. He paid the price. He took on the suffering
that we deserved. He took on our sin, all of it. We believe.
In Jesus name,
Amen
