Searching For Jesus

The Bible is clear about truth…

After I read this…I was concerned…because of what these people shared…means that what Luke shared with us in the book of Acts chapter 20:28-31 is true…there are people out there sharing false doctrine with people.

Slide #4

Acts 20:28 30 “ Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.

For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock….Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.”

So what does this mean for us today?

What this means is this…plain and simple…if your here today and when you die you want to end up in heaven…

You cannot be part of the 57% of Christians who claim that there are other ways to get into heaven.

You must pay attention to what the Word of God says…

There is only one way to get into heaven…

Slide #5

Wasn’t it Jesus who shared in John 14:6…“I am the way, the truth, and the life! No one comes to the Father except through me”

You are real…Heaven is real…and your decision to ask Christ into your life must be real.

Life is not a game…it is very important…

Because life is not a game… I have an important question to ask everyone today…

Besides being in church today…what is the most important thing to you?

Is it your family… Is it having friends… The score of a football game or… What’s for lunch…? Maybe it’s the upcoming Christmas shopping season… Or the World Series…

Granted…all these things are important…

The most important thing should be…what you do with God…

How many of you here today want to end up in heaven when you die?

Watching the show…”One nation under God”…really opened up my eyes about Jesus and eternal life.

The problem with our world is people have over complicated the message….

Because there is so much sin in the world today and in our lives…we assume that Jesus would never forgive us.

That is NOT true…matter of fact…that is no-where close to the truth………..

What is the truth???????

While traveling thru Arizona…the four college guys from Dallas slept at a Campground one night.

They noticed two senior couples sitting out by a picnic table and asked them to share with them what they knew about Jesus..

The two couples were obviously grounded in their faith and were able to share the truth that is found in the bible. (must have been members of VP)….

They shared that Jesus Christ was the Son of God and how He was sent to earth to die on the cross for the forgiveness of our sins.

Without the forgiveness of our sins…faith is dead.

I cannot imagine living in this life without knowing that when it is finally over…
