In the top pic, our new Christmas Pageant choir is busy at rehearsals. In the bottom photo, worship dancers began learning their moves as well. (Check out that cool new stage! Bubba and company did a great job! Thanks guys!)
If you were to die today, do you KNOW where you would spend eternity? You CAN KNOW that you WILL live forever in heaven.
It's simple! Do these 4 things:
1. Admit your need. (I am a sinner.)
2. Be willing to turn from your sins. (Repent.)
3. Believe that Jesus Christ died for you on the cross and rose from the grave.
4. Through prayer, invite Jesus Christ to come in and control your life. (Receive Him as Savior and Lord of your life.)
Here's a simple prayer that you can use if you are having trouble getting started:
God in heaven, I acknowledge that I am a sinner and have fallen short of Your righteous standard. (Romans 3:23) I deserve to be judged for eternity for my sin. (Romans 6:23) Thank You for not leaving me in this state, for I believe You sent Jesus Christ, Your only begotten Son, who was born of the virgin Mary, to die for me and carry my judgement on the Cross. (John 3:16) I believe He was raised again on the third day and is now seated at Your right hand as my Lord and Savior. So today I give you my life entirely to the Lordship of Jesus.
Jesus, I confess you as my Lord and Savior. Come into my life through Your Spirit and change me into a child of God. (Romans 10:9-10) I renounce the things of darkness which I once held on to, and from this day forward I will no longer live for myself, but for You who gave Yourself for me that I may live forever. (Galatians 2:20) Thank You, Lord; my life is now completely in Your hands and heart, and according to Your Word I shall never be ashamed. (Romans 1:16)
