The Kingdom of God is near and available for you!

1. To be part of God’s Kingdom means responding to Jesus’ invitation.

“Come follow me...” - Jesus. Mark 1:17

“You trust in God, trust also in me.” - Jesus. John 14:2

2. The consequences of sin and selfishness keep most people out of heaven.

“For the wages of sin is death... but ... the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” - Romans 6:23

3. Jesus died on the cross to make a way for us to get to God and His kingdom.

“Jesus died (suffered) for sins once for all... to bring us to God.” 1 Peter 3:18

“I am the way, the truth, and the life...” - Jesus. John 14:6

4. To be part of God’s kingdom you must respond to the invitation.

“The kingdom of heaven is near. Repent and believe the good news.” - Jesus. Mark 1:15

“Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” Romans 10:13.

This is done through prayer.

God promises... “If you confess 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

A simple prayer: Dear Jesus, I want to be saved. I want to be in the kingdom of heaven when I die and part of Your kingdom here today. I confess you as my savior who forgives my sins and as my Lord whom I choose to follow. By faith I accept your free gift of mercy and grace that gives me eternal life with you. Thank you for loving me always.
