Are you 100% sure you will go to heaven when
you die or do you have doubts about it? Below are five scriptural
steps to knowing you are on your way to heaven. |
|
 |
Step One – Acknowledge
that you have sinned.
Romans 3:10, “As it is written, there is none righteous, no,
not one.”
Romans 3:23, “For all have sinned, and come short of
the glory of God.” |
| |
 |
Step Two – Realize that
there is a penalty for your sin.
Romans 6:23a, “For the wages of sin is death.”
The word death means separation. The
death referred to here means eternal separation from God in
the lake of fire as stated in Revelation 21:8, “But the
fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers,
and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars,
shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and
brimstone: which is the second
death.” |
| |
 |
Step Three – Know that
Christ paid the penalty for you.
Romans 5:8, “But God commendeth his love toward us,
in that, while
we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” |
| |
|
 |
Step Four – Accept that
Christ wants to give you the free gift of eternal life
in heaven.
Romans 6:23b, “But the gift
of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our
Lord.” |
| |
|
 |
Step Five – Believe in Christ
and ask Him to be your Savior.
Romans 10:9-10, “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 10:13, “For whosoever shall
call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” |
| |
As you think on these truths,
will you right now ask Christ to come into your heart and
life? Then, attend a good fundamental, Bible-believing church,
publicly confess Christ as your Savior, and follow Him in
believer’s baptism.
For the Scripture saith, “Whosoever believeth in
Him shall not be ashamed.” (Romans 10:11)
