STEP DO YOU THINK YOU ARE A GOOD PERSON?

HAVE YOU KEPT GOD’S TEN COMMANDMENTS?Let’s look at a few of them:

“You Shall Not BearFalse Witness”

Have you ever told a lie?“You Shall Not Steal”

Did you ever take something that wasn’t yours

(even something small?)

“You Shall Not Murder”Hating a brother

is murder. Have you ever hated? (1 John 3:15 & Matt. 5:21-22)

“You Shall Not Commit Adultery”

But Jesus said that if you look with lust, you have commited

adultery (Matthew 5:28) Did you ever lust?

HOW ARE YOU DOING SO FAR?Here are two more:

“Honor Your Father and your Mother”

Did you ever disobeyyour parents?

“You Shall Not Misuse The Name of the

Lord Your God”Did you ever use God’s name as a cuss word?

“For whoever shall keep the whole law (10 Commandments) and yet stumble in one point, he is guilty of all.” (James 2:10)

“... all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire.... (Rev. 21:8b)

HOW DID YOU DO?

THE BADNEWS

“All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God”

(Romans 3:23)

If you died today and

God judged you by His 10

Commandments would you be

GUILTY OR INNOCENT?Did you earn heaven

or deserve hell?See the next page for the

GOOD NEWS!

“The wages of sin is death;”

(Romans 6:23)

God Loves You!

Although all of us have sinned by breaking God’s commandments, God provided a way for us to be forgiven, to Know Himand have ETERNAL LIFE

THE GOOD NEWS

“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, That whoever BELIEVES IN HIM should not perish but have

eternal life. (John 3:16)

And Jesus Christ, God’s Son said:

“I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. (John 10:10)

“In my Father’s house are many mansions.... I go to pre-pare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for

you. I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also.” (John 14:2-3)

Jesus is the only way to God the Father

3STEP JESUS CHRIST, GOD’S SON, PAID OUR DEATH

PENALTY WHEN HE DIED IN OUR PLACE.

“But God demonstrated His own lovetoward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ

died for us” (Romans 5:8)

“But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of

Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.” (1John 1:7)

THEN JESUS PROVED HE HAD POWER OVER DEATH.

“Christ died for our sins... He was buried... He was raised on the third day... He appeared to Peter, then to the twelve.

After that He appeared to more than five hundred...” (1 Corinthians 15:3-6)

Jesus is the only way to God the Father

“For there is one God, and one mediator

between God and men, the man Christ Jesus

(1 Timothy 2:5)

The next step tells how to cross over to God’s side and eternal life...

“Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father, but through Me.’ “ (John 14:6)

9

Believe and trust that Jesus Christ died on the cross for your sins. Therefore by Faith:

WE MUST LOVE AND OBEY HIMJesus said, “If you love Me, keep My

commandments (John 14:15)

4STEP

WE MUST REPENT (TURN FROM SINS)“... unless you repent, you will all

likewise perish (Luke 13:3)

WE MUST RECEIVE CHRIST“But as many as received Him, to them He gave

the right to become children of God, even to those who believe on His name.” (John 1:12)

11

By Faith you must open the door of your heart and life by Receiving and Believing in Him.

Would you like to invite Jesus into your life? Here’s how....

Jesus Said. “BEHOLD I STAND AT THE DOOR AND KNOCK; IF ANY ONE HEARS MY VOICE AND OPENS THE DOOR, I WILL COME IN TO HIM AND DINE WITH HIM.”

“For by grace you are saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God; not of works, lest any man should boast. (Eph. 2:8,9)

(Rev. 3:20)

Heavenly Father,I admit that I’ve sinned by breaking your ten commandments. I believe that your Son, Jesus Christ, died in my place for my sins and rose again. I now open the door of my heart and life to receive Jesus as my Lord and Savior. I turn from my old ways to love, obey, and follow Him. I pray this in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Jesus wouldn’t lie to you!He promised: “..... if anyone

hears my voice and opens the door, I WILL COME IN TO HIM...” (Rev. 3:20)

“... 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,... that you may know that you have eternal life... ” (1John 5:11-13)
