It Must Be Told
This is a wonderful message that must be told!
It is so vital that it may change your entire future.
In fact, the decision you make about it will affect you both in life and death.
This message is absolutely true, because God said it. When God makes a promise we can rest upon it, because His promises never fail. God will not make us believe this message. That is our choice, but He will hold us responsible for having heard it. It is a very personal message, something we must decide. We must say either, “I will” or “I will not.”
Here is the message. It is an exact quotation from God’s Word, the Holy Bible. “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” John 3:16. Did you ever hear such wonderful words? Think for a moment what they say. They reveal three marvellous facts.
First, “God so loved the world”!
Since you are in the world, He loved you: He loved a sinner, for all have sinned!
The second great fact is, “that he gave his only begotten Son!”
God loved you so much that He sent His Son to pay the penalty of sin. Someone must pay the penalty—either you or a sinless substitute. Jesus Christ came to die as your sinless substitute, so that your sins can be put away, so you can have eternal life.
And now the third tremendous fact is “whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life!”
Think of it! God gives eternal life to those who believe in Jesus Christ. Now your part is to believe in Him.
This simply means you must admit that you are a sinner, realise that Christ paid the penalty for your sins, then repent of your sin and receive Jesus Christ as your Saviour and Lord.
