Do you want to know God?

Hey! What's up? You're at this page for a reason, so let me ask you a question. Do you know for sure where you are going when you die? You are going to die you know. You are not indestructible. Do you know when you are going to die? It could be any moment. As you are driving down the freeway look at all the frenzy around you. It could involve you in a very negative way at any time. So where are you going when it's all over? If you say "I'm going to Heaven!" why do you think so? Is it all the good deeds that you have done throughout your life? Or that you just haven't done anything really bad? Well, I have some really bad news for you. You can't possibly do anything to merit being in Heaven. But, there is hope! Jesus said "You must be born again!"
So how do you do this? ...First of all, blow the dust off your Bible and crack it open....Start thinking about this: You are a sinner and your sin keeps you separated from God, because he is perfect and doesn't like sin. Read Romans 3:23 It says"For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God."
What is sin? It is disobeying God. It is that which separates us from Him. And we are all guilty; the Pope, George Bush, John Kerry, your mom, the mailman, your neighbor ...and you. Everyone has bad thoughts. Many people cuss, hit each other, get drunk, and hate others. Don't believe you sin? E-mail me; we need to talk.
Let's say you accept the fact that you sin. "So what? Every one does it. Not everyone is going to Hell." Well, now, what does the Bible say about that. Turn to Romans 6:23 "For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord." What does the first part of that sentence say? Wages is something you receive, so for sin you receive death, which means Hell, eternal death. That means separation from God forever and eternal torment. But, the second half of that sentence offers hope! And, it says there is a free gift involved. That means you don't have to work for it. Who paid for this free gift, and what is the gift? Jesus The Messiah paid for it with his life and Eternal Life is the gift.
...But to receive a gift you have to reach out and grab it. God is reaching out his hand. All you have to do is grab it.
