We've all lived our lives As though it did not matter How much we have wallowed in sin. Calling it ‘indiscretions of youth’…
Or, simply, doing ‘our thing’…
Maybe we were just ‘having a blast’.
To receive life everlasting
Here is what you must do…
Seek forgivness for your sinful past.
You’ve heard of ‘Repentance’
Since you were a youth
Without thinking just what it entailed…
It means you resolve before God
To turn your life around
In the areas where you have failed.
For all have fallen short
Of the Glory of God…*
Because each of us gives in to sin.
But that does not mean
Life Eternal in Heaven
Is a prize that we’ll never win…
So,
how can we be sure
That we’re to be saved?
And just what does redemption mean?
It is the path to salvation
And Jesus spells it out for us
In the Gospel of John 3:16…
“For God so loved the world
“That He gave His only Son…”
“That whoever believes in Him”
“Should not perish” He said,
“But have eternal life…” **
That’s His PROMISE....It's not just a whim.
