People for years have said that there are more than one way to get to Heaven. The fact is, the only way to get to God the Father (which, of course, will get you to Heaven) is by asking Jesus Christ to save you from your sins.

The Bible says: “I am the way, the truth, and the life!’ Jesus answered. ‘Without me, no one can go to the Father.” – John 14:6 – CEV

Jesus Christ loves you so much, that he died on the cross to take the punishment for your sins. All you have to do is accept His free gift of salvation.

If you are looking for a purpose in life, someone to love you, and eternal security, Jesus is the ONLY way to get any of those.

“God loved the people of this world so much that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who has faith in him will have eternal life and never really die.” – John 3:16 – CEV

To have your sins forgiven and for God to come into your life and accept you into Heaven, you must confess with your mouth and really and truly believe in your heart that Jesus came to earth, died on a cross, and was raised to life on the third day.

“If you declare with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord,’ and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” – Romans 10:9 – CEV

Have you, as a Christian, woken up one Sunday and thought that you would skip church just for one day?

Have you stopped going to church regularly?

Did you know that the Bible talks about not avoiding getting together with other believers? The Bible says: “Some people have gotten out of the habit of meeting for worship, but we must not do that. We should keep on encouraging each other, especially since you know that the day of the Lord’s coming is getting closer.” – Hebrews 10:25 CEV

So remember, as a Christian, skipping church for just one day, or just plain not going to church anymore is not only not good for you, but is what God says not to do.

I’m sure just about everyone on this Earth has heard the word love before. However, do you know that people today have different meanings of the word love?

One example is someone saying “Wow! I love that XBOX 360!” or “I love chocolate-chip cookies!”, but do you know that this is not real love?

Real love is when you actually want to take care of someone, will not talk bad about someone, forgiving others for their wrongs against you, not holding grudges against others for wrongs they might have done to you, etc.

The Bible very clearly says that if you do not have love (true love, that is), you are pretty much wasting your time.

“What if I could speak
all languages
of humans
    and of angels?
If I did not love others,
    I would be nothing more
than a noisy gong
    or a clanging cymbal.
² What if I could prophesy
and understand all secrets
    and all knowledge?
And what if I had faith
    that moved mountains?
I would be nothing,
    unless I loved others.
³ What if I gave away all
    that I owned
and let myself
    be burned alive?
I would gain nothing,
    unless I loved others.
⁴ Love is kind and patient,
never jealous, boastful,
    proud, or ⁵ rude.
Love isn’t selfish
    or quick tempered.
It doesn’t keep a record
    of wrongs that others do.
⁶ Love rejoices in the truth,
    but not in evil.
⁷ Love is always supportive,
loyal, hopeful,
    and trusting.
⁸ Love never fails!” – 1 Corinthians 13:1-8 CEV

Remember to truly love others, just as Jesus Christ truly loves everyone!
