Are you going to Heaven when you die, or do you have some doubt?
Friend, this is life's most important question. It is not a question of how good you are, whether you go to church, or how much money you give to charity. It is a question about where you will spend eternity. God says, in order to go to Heaven, you must be born again.
"Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." {John 3:3}
Recognize your condition.
"For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God" {Romans 3:23}.
No one is good enough to go to Heaven on his own merit. No matter how much good we do, we still fall short.
Realize that there is a penalty for sin.
"For the wages of sin is death" {Romans 6:23}.
Just as there are wages for good, there is punishment for wrong. The penalty for our sin is eternal death in a place called Hell.
Believe Christ died for you.
"But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8).
Christ's great love for us was shown when He died on the cross to pay our sin debt.
Trust Christ alone as your Savior.
"But the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" {Romans 6:23}.
"For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved" {Romans 10:13}.
Everlasting life is a gift purchased by the blood of Jesus and offered freely to those who call upon Him by faith.
"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}
Let us help you word a prayer. (Realize it's not mere words that save, but your faith in Jesus Christ.)
"Dear Jesus, I know I'm a sinner. Please forgive me for my sins. Jesus, come into my heart and save my soul from Hell. I'm trusting you, and you alone, to take me to Heaven when I die. Thank you for saving me, Jesus. Amen."
