1 John 1:9
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.
Do you believe when you die that you are going to heaven?
























The solutions we point people to are:

1~ God's word from the Bible has the answers & we just need to look for them.

2~ The power of God's love is the answer, rather than hatred & self centeredness.

3~ We are all sinners and we can not save ourselves, but God can.

4~ Jesus died for our sins & we can have forgiveness, a new life, and salvation when we accept Him

5~ We need to love God and love our neighbor as ourselves.

6~ Realize that there is hope and God has a plan for our lives & we need to seek His purpose for our life.

7~ The devil is real and without God's protection the devil will try to deceive us, destroy us, and kill us.


THE 5 STEPS TOWARDS HEAVEN


#1 GOD'S PURPOSE IS LIFE AND PEACE

God desires for you to have life and peace that is for both now and for all eternity.

"I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly."

John 10:10


#2 RECOGNIZING TEH PROBLEM: SIN AND SEPERATION

We were created to know, love, and glorify God. When we choose to go our own way, living life in
willful disobedience to God, we are choosing to be separated from God both now and for all eternity.

The Bible says we are sinners…

"For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God."

Romans 3:23

But God is love…

"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

God is also just…

"For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord."

Romans 6:23


#3 WE CAN NOT SAVE OURSELVES

Because God is Holy, He cannot allow sin to enter into Heaven.

Most people attempt to save themselves by their own efforts, good works, or church attendance.

The Bible says…

"There is a way that seems right unto man, but in the end it leads to death."

Proverbs 14:12

How then can a sinful person enter Heaven where God allows no sin?



#4 WE ARE SAVED BY GRACE

The good news is… in spite of our sin, Christ died for us.

"By grace you have been saved through faith, and not of yourself; it is the gift of God,
not of works, lest any man should boast."

Ephesians 2:8-9

"But God demonstrates His own love for us in this; while we were still sinners, Christ died for us."

Romans 5:8


#5 RESPONDING TO GOD'S GIFT BY FAITH

"If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him
from the dead, you will be saved."

Romans 10:9
