“God overlooked people’s ignorance about these things in
earlier times, but now He commands everyone everywhere to repent of their sins
and turn to Him. For He has set a day for judging the world with justice
by the Man He has appointed, and He proved to everyone who this is by raising Him (Jesus Christ) from the dead.” (Acts 17:30-31)
No Repentance—No Salvation.
That's the cold hard truth.
Every person is at, or will soon come to, the fork in the road of making the choice to receive Christ, or reject Him.
Like the picture above of the fork in the road, you will have to choose one path or the other. This is often called the Valley of Decision. And if you are reading this right now, and have never received Jesus Christ, you are in that valley.
Choose Life.
It's not enough to just believe that Jesus existed. Or that He was a good man, or a great teacher. It does you absolutely no good to try to follow His teachings and strive to be a better person. Simply going to a church a few times a year accomplishes you nothing.
You must believe that He died on the cross for your sins personally, because you need saving. And then repent—think differently—and then turn and go a different direction. Receive Jesus Christ as your Savior and Lord.
If simply trying to be a good person could get us into Heaven, Jesus would not have had to die on that cross.
That is all.
—God is Love and Love Never Fails.
