To my friends and neighbors:
I have been watching the obituaries of the Progress news, and many of my neighbor‘s names
and even my loved ones’ names were there. I had 3 brothers, and 1 sister-in-law who died this
year. All of them had given their lives to Jesus and I know that I will see them in heaven. I also
have Jesus as my Savior.
And I know a lot of good people, but I don't know where they stand with God. I have a longing
for all people to know Jesus and have a personal relationship with Him. There are many good
verses in the bible to learn and store in our memory and here are just a few.
Romans 3:23 — For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.
Romans 6:23 — For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life.
John 1:12 — But as many as received Him, to them he gave power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe in his name.
John 10: 27-29 — (Jesus said) My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me, and I give unto them eternal life, and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My Father, which gave them to me, is greater than all; and no man can pluck them out of my Father's Hand. I and my Father are one.
Revelation 3:20 — Behold, I stand at the door and knock: if any man hears my voice and opens the door, I will come into him and will sup with him and he with me.
1 John 5:11-13 -— And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He that hath the Son hath life, and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. These things have I written unto you that believe in the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life and that ye may believe in the name of the Son of God.
If you have not accepted Jesus into your life and want to, you could pray this prayer: “l have done things that are wrong, Lord, please forgive my sins. I want Jesus in my life. I want to see Jesus, face to face, in heaven. Help me to trust and believe."
If you have sincerely prayed this prayer, you now have Jesus as your Lord and Savior. And we will see you someday in heaven.
. . . God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can't take credit for this; it is a gift from God.
A sinner saved by God's grace.
Trust and Obey
