Do you know your eternal purpose & destiny? Are you certain your sins are forgiven forever?
No matter who you are, the Bible makes it clear that you are a sinner in desperate need of a Savior. Having no righteousness of your own, you can only be forgiven and made right with God by putting your faith in Jesus Christ alone - totally apart from your religion, devotion, personal merit or good works.

As your substitute, Jesus died on the cross and suffering the full punishment that you rightfully deserve. Your sins have been removed once and for all by His blood shed for you. He has taken away all of your guilt forever! As a result, He offers you the free gift of forgiveness of sins and eternal life without cost. Click on Part 3 above.
The moment you believe that Jesus died for your sins and rose again, God no longer treats you as a sinner. Instead, He places you in an honored position in His royal family. Even though you deserve God's judgment and wrath, He treats you as pure, precious, and perfectly righteous! This is your new, unchanging, and eternal identity! Click Part 4 above.
When you put your faith in Jesus Christ alone, God freely and graciously credits (transfers) Christ's own righteousness to you without cost. Although you have no righteousness in yourself, God declares you "perfectly righteous forever" in His sight! This means your new identity in Jesus Christ can never be lost! Jesus said, "I give unto them eternal life and they will never perish..." (John 10:28)
You may be surprised to learn that doing good things (like helping others, being religious, getting baptized, going forward in a church service, surrendering your all, or even asking Jesus into your heart) can never make you perfectly righteous in God's sight! Click on Part 2 above to continue.
In fact, the good things we do often prevent us from getting right with God because they cause us to depend on our own worthiness, obedience, or devotion. But, the Bible says, "There is no one who is righteous, not even one... All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God... All our righteous deeds are like filthy rags." (Romans 3:10&23; Isaiah 64:6) Click on Part 3 above.
This means that even the best things we do are unacceptable to God! It also means that going to church, getting baptized or giving money can't save us; trying to obey the 10 commandments or promising to follow Jesus can't save us; confessing or feeling sorry for our sins can't save us! Click on Part 4 above.
On the cross, Jesus Christ suffered and paid the full penalty for every sin we have ever committed or ever will commit! We are only forgiven and made right with God through simple childlike faith (trust) in what Jesus has already done for us by His death and resurrection. “It's not by righteous things we have done, but by His mercy He saved us...it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast...Now, apart from the law [the 10 commandments, etc.], the righteousness of God has been revealed...This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe...Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved!" (Titus 3:5, Ephesians 2:8-9, Romans 3:21-22, Acts 16:31)
"All of the other leaders of the world's religions have died, never to be heard from again..."
ISLAM says that Jesus was a prophet, but inferior to Muhammad. BUDDHISM says He was a wise teacher, but not God. HINDUS say He was 'a god' but only one of many gods. JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES and MORMONS say He was an exalted angel, but deny His claims of Deity. [Click on 2 above to continue]
Referring to Jesus, the Bible says, “All things came into being through HIM and apart from HIM nothing came into being that has come into being...By HIM all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible. All things have been created through HIM and for HIM" (John 1:3, Colossians 1:16). Click on 3 above to continue.
The Bible teaches that Jesus is the Creator of life. All of the leaders of the world's religions have died, never to be heard from again. Jesus not only died (to take away all of our sins), but He came back to life three days later! The Creator of life died and rose again to give us life! Click on 4 above.
Jesus Christ is “GOD overall, forever praised! GOD revealed in a body! The True GOD and Eternal Life! God with us! The Mighty GOD! The Everlasting Father! The Prince of Peace!" Jesus said, "Unless you believe that I AM HE, you will die in your sins." (John 1:1, Romans 9:5, 1 Timothy 3:16, 1 John 5:20, Isaiah 7:14 & 9:6, John 8:24) Click on 5 above.
The Creator of the universe revealed Himself in a human body and died as a sacrifice for your sins. Jesus loved you so much that He willingly suffered the punishment you deserved, in your place! "Anyone who believes in Him, receives forgiveness of sins through His name" (Acts 10:43).

The words "eternal" and "everlasting" occur 120 times in the Bible. By their very definition they mean that which lasts forever, never ends, and can never be cut short or lost. God Himself is eternal and everlasting, His Word is eternal and everlasting, and His unchanging promise to those who simply believe in Jesus Christ alone, is eternal and everlasting life as a permanent possession!

Titus 1:2 says, "God, who cannot lie, promised us eternal life before the world began" and you can be sure that He will never go back on His Word! "Whoever believes in Him will not perish, but have everlasting life... All those the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never drive away... This is the will of Him who sent me, that I shall lose none of all those He has given me, but will raise them up on the last day... My Father’s will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in Him shall have eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day." (John 3:16, 6:37, 6:39, 6:40, 6:47). Click Part 4 above.
"Very truly I tell you, the one who believes has eternal life... My sheep hear my voice, I know them, they follow Me and, I give unto them eternal life and they will never perish... Nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death or life, neither angels or demons... Not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. No power in the sky above or in the earth below— indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord." (John 3:16b, 6:40&47, 10:27-30; Romans 8:38&39)
