Do you believe in the one true GOD...
who has made it possible for us to be reconciled?

Jesus says, “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” Matthew 11:28

Are you weary and worn out by the troubles of this world? Are you burdened with doubt, fear, or guilt? Are you looking for peace, comfort, and rest?  Surrender to God—He has promised to help you! He wants to give you His love, His joy, and His peace!

Do you know God?
“Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.” John 14:6-7

Do you believe God created the world and that everything was perfect?
“And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.” Genesis 1:31

Do you know that Adam and Eve, God’s first created humans, disobeyed God and sin entered into the world?
“Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned.” Romans 5:12

Do you know God sent His Son, Jesus,  to earth?
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” John 3:16

Do you know He lived a perfect life?
For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him. 2 Corinthians 5:21

Do you know that Jesus died on the cross for your sins?
“For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures.” 1 Corinthians 15:3

Do you know He was raised again from the dead?
And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures.” 1 Corinthians 15:4

Do you know He is alive today sitting on the right hand of God the Father in heaven praying for you?
“It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.” Romans 8:34

Do you know you are a sinner who has sinned against God and man?
“For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.” Romans 3:23

Do you know that sin leads to death?
“For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Romans 6:23

Do you know that there is nothing you can do on your own to get rid of your sin and earn salvation?
“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.” 
Ephesians 2:8-9

Do you know God loves you so much He sent His Son to die for your sins?
“But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” Romans 5:8

Have you repented?
“Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord. And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you…” Acts 3:19-20

When we are heavily burdened with sin, we often need to hear that we are truly forgiven. If you feel this way, find a Christian to talk to. He/she will be able to assure that through the name and shed blood of Jesus you are forgiven and a true child of God.
Jesus spoke to his followers and said: “Whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them...” John 20:23

Do you believe in what Jesus has done for you?
“That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.” Romans 10:9-10

Believe today unto the salvation of your soul!
