Introduction
The
most important question that a person can ever ask himself/herself is
"Where
will I spend eternity?"
If
your answer to this question is "I
don't know" or "I'm
just not sure." There
is a way that you can know for sure that you will spend
eternity in Heaven. We are told in God's word that there are none
that are righteous and that none seek after God (Rom.
3:10,11). We are told
that we are all sinners and deserve eternal judgement (Rom.
3:23; Rom.6:23a).
The Bible says that we cannot earn our way into Heaven or ever
be good enough to gain entrance on our own merits (Eph
2:8-10).
Even though it sounds as if all is hopeless, it is not. God had
a wonderful plan, even before the foundation of the Earth (Eph
1:4,5). This plan
included His son Jesus Christ.
There
had to be a perfect, sinless sacrifice to redeem mankind. That
sacrifice was Jesus Christ. He died on the cross and was buried.
Three days later he arose from the dead. He revealed Himself to many
people then ascended to Heaven where He sits at the right hand of God
the Father interceding for believers.
This
perfect plan of God's consist of a Perfect Gift. This Gift is
available to anyone. To receive this Gift, God requires that you
realize you're a sinner and that you cannot get to heaven outside of
receiving this Gift. This Gift is called salvation and it is
made possible because of what Jesus did on the Cross.
The
Bible says that you must believe in your heart
that God raised Jesus from the dead (Head knowledge is not good
enough, you must know Him in your heart). The Bible also states that
you must confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord. This is done by
telling God that you agree with Him about His Son and by proclaiming
Jesus to mankind as your Savior and Lord.
Heaven
is a free Gift.
To
understand why we need this free gift. We have provided information
on this page concerning the
original
state of man, his eventual fall and God's perfect plan.
We
have also provided definitions
of frequently used Bible terms.We also want to look at some
misconceptions
about who God really is and what the Bible has to say about Heaven
and Hell.

The Serpent
and the temptation

he
said to the woman, "Indeed, has God said, 'You shall not eat
from any tree of the garden'?"

The
woman said to the serpent, "From the fruit of the trees of the
garden we may eat;

has said, 'You shall not eat
from
it or touch it, or you will die.' "

Genesis 3:6
When
the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a

tree was desirable to make {one} wise, she took from its fruit and
ate; and she gave also to her
husband
with her, and he ate.
Genesis 3:7
Then
the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were
naked; and they sewed
fig
leaves together and made themselves loin coverings.

fellowship with God

the LORD God called to the man, and said to him, "Where are you?"
Genesis 3:10
He
said, "I heard the sound of You in the garden, and I was afraid
because I was naked; so I
hid
myself."
Genesis 3:11
And
He said, "Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from
the tree of which I
commanded
you not to eat?"
Genesis 3:12
The
man said, "The woman whom You gave {to be} with me, she gave me
from the tree, and I ate."

LORD God said to the serpent, "Because you have done this,
Cursed are you more than all
cattle,
And more than every beast of the field; On your belly you will go,
And dust you will eat
All
the days of your life;
Genesis 3:15
And
I will put enmity Between you and the woman, And between your
seed and her seed; He
shall
bruise you on the head, And you shall bruise him on the heel."
Genesis 3:16
To
the woman He said, "I will greatly multiply Your pain in
childbirth, In pain you will bring forth
children;
Yet your desire will be for your husband, And he will rule
over you."

Then
to Adam He said, "Because you have listened to the voice of
your wife, and have eaten from the
tree
about which I commanded you, saying, 'You shall not eat from it';
Cursed is the ground because
of
you; In toil you will eat of it All the days of your life.
Genesis 3:18
"Both
thorns and thistles it shall grow for you; And you will eat the
plants of the field;

the sweat of your face You will eat bread, Till you return to the
ground, Because from it you
were
taken; For you are dust, And to dust you shall return."

knowing good and evil;
and
now, he might stretch out his hand, and take also from the

therefore
the LORD God sent him out from the garden of Eden, to cultivate the
ground from
which
he was taken.

stationed the cherubim

The Sentence
John 18:37
Therefore
Pilate said to Him, "So You are a king?" Jesus answered, "You
say {correctly} that
I am a king.
For this I have been born, and for this I have come into the world,
to testify to the
truth.Everyone
who is of the truth hears My voice."
John 18:38
Pilate *said
to Him, "What is truth?" And when he had said this, he went
out again to the Jews and
*said
to them, "I find no guilt in Him.
John 18:39
"But
you have a custom that I release someone for you at the Passover; do
you wish then that I
release
for you the King of the Jews?"
John 18:40
So they
cried out again, saying, "Not this Man, but Barabbas." Now
Barabbas was a robber.
John 19:1
Pilate then
took Jesus and scourged Him.
John 19:2
And the
soldiers twisted together a crown of thorns and put it on His head,
and put a purple robe
on Him;
John 19:3
and they
{began} to come up to Him and say, "Hail, King of the Jews!"
and to give Him slaps
{in the face.}
John 19:4
Pilate came
out again and *said to them, "Behold, I am bringing Him out to
you so that you may
know that I
find no guilt in Him."
John 19:5
Jesus then
came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe.
{Pilate} *said to them,
"Behold,
the Man!"
John 19:6
So when the
chief priests and the officers saw Him, they cried out saying,
"Crucify, crucify!"
Pilate *said
to them, "Take Him
yourselves and crucify Him, for I find no guilt in Him."
John 19:7
The Jews
answered him, "We have a law, and by that law He ought to die
because He made
Himself out
{to} {be} the Son of God."
John 19:8
Therefore
when Pilate heard this statement, he was {even} more afraid;
John 19:9
and he
entered into the Praetorium again and *said to Jesus,
"Where are You from?" But Jesus
gave
him no answer.
John 19:10
So Pilate
*said to Him, "You do not speak to me? Do You not know that I
have authority to release
You, and I
have authority to crucify You?"
John 19:11
Jesus
answered, "You
would have no authority over Me, unless it had been given you
from above;
for this
reason he who delivered Me to you has {the} greater sin."
John 19:12
As a result
of this Pilate made efforts to release Him, but the Jews cried out
saying, "If you release
this
Man, you are no friend of Caesar; everyone who makes himself out {to
be} a king opposes
Caesar."
John 19:13
Therefore
when Pilate heard these words, he brought Jesus out, and sat down on
the judgment
seat
at a place called The Pavement, but in Hebrew, Gabbatha.
John 19:14
Now it was
the day of preparation for the Passover; it was about the sixth hour.
And he *said
to the
Jews, "Behold, your King!"
John 19:15
So they
cried out, "Away with {Him,} away with {Him,} crucify Him!"
Pilate *said to them,
"Shall
I crucify your King?"
The chief priests answered,
"We have no king but Caesar."
John 19:16
So he then
handed Him over to them to be crucified.

The
Sacrifice
John
19:17
They
took Jesus, therefore, and He went out, bearing His own cross, to
the place called the Place
of
a Skull, which is called in Hebrew, Golgotha.
John
19:18
There
they crucified Him, and with Him two other men, one on either side,
and Jesus in between.
John
19:19
Pilate
also wrote an inscription and put it on the cross. It was written, "JESUS
THE NAZARENE,
THE
KING OF THE JEWS."
Luke 23:46
And
Jesus, crying out with a loud voice, said, "Father,
INTO YOUR HANDS I COMMIT
MY
SPIRIT."
Having said this, He breathed His last.
Luke 23:47
Now
when the centurion saw what had happened, he {began} praising God,
saying, "Certainly
this
man was innocent."
John
19:31
Then
the Jews, because it was the day of preparation, so that the bodies
would not remain on the cross
on
the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a high day), asked Pilate that
their legs might be broken, and
{that}they
might be taken away.
John
19:32
So
the soldiers came, and broke the legs of the first man and of the
other who was crucified with Him;
John
19:33
but
coming to Jesus, when they saw that He was already dead, they did
not break His legs.
John
19:34
But
one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and immediately
blood and water came out.

When
it was evening, there came a rich man from Arimathea, named Joseph,
who himself had also
become
a disciple of Jesus.
Matthew 27:58
This man
went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate ordered
it to be given {to him.}
Matthew 27:59
And Joseph
took the body and wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,
Matthew 27:60
and laid it
in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock; and he rolled
a large stone
against
the entrance of the tomb and went away.
Matthew 27:61
And Mary
Magdalene was there, and the other Mary, sitting opposite the grave.
Matthew 27:62
Now on the
next day, the day after the preparation, the chief priests and the
Pharisees gathered
together
with Pilate,
Matthew 27:63
and said,
"Sir, we remember that when He was still alive that deceiver
said, 'After three days
I {am to}
rise again.'
Matthew 27:64
"Therefore,
give orders for the grave to be made secure until the third day,
otherwise His disciples
may come and
steal Him away and say to the people, 'He has risen from the dead,'
and the last
deception
will be worse than the first."
Matthew 27:65
Pilate said
to them, "You have a guard; go, make it {as} secure as you know how."
Matthew 27:66
And they
went and made the grave secure, and along with the guard they
set a seal on the stone.

Now
after the Sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first {day} of the

and
the other Mary came to look at the grave.

And
behold, a severe earthquake had occurred, for an angel of the Lord
descended from heaven
and
came and rolled away the stone and sat upon it
Matthew 28:3
And
his appearance was like lightning, and his clothing as white as snow.
Matthew 28:4
The
guards shook for fear of him and became like dead men.
Matthew 28:5
The
angel said to the women, "Do not be afraid; for I know that you
are looking for Jesus who
has
been crucified.
Matthew 28:6
"He
is not here, for He has risen, just as He said. Come, see the place
where He was lying.
Matthew 28:7
"Go
quickly and tell His disciples that He has risen from the dead; and
behold, He is going ahead
of
you into Galilee, there you will see Him; behold, I have told you."
Matthew 28:8
And
they left the tomb quickly with fear and great joy and ran to report
it to His disciples.
Matthew 28:9
And
behold, Jesus met them and greeted them. And they came up and took
hold of His feet and
worshiped
Him.
Matthew 28:10
Then
Jesus *said to them, "Do
not be afraid; go and take word to My brethren to leave for Galilee,
and
there they will see Me."

Doubting Thomas
John 20:24
But Thomas,
one of the twelve, called Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came.
John 20:25
So the other
disciples were saying to him, "We have seen the Lord!" But
he said to them, "Unless
I see in
His hands the imprint of the nails, and put my finger into the
place of the nails, and put my
hand
into His side, I will not believe."
John 20:26
After
eight days His disciples were again inside, and Thomas with them.
Jesus *came, the doors
having
been shut, and stood in their midst and said, "Peace
{be} with you."
John 20:27
Then He
*said to Thomas, "Reach
here with your finger, and see My hands; and reach here your
hand and put it
into My side; and do not be unbelieving, but believing."
John 20:28
Thomas
answered and said to Him, "My
Lord and my God!"
John 20:29
Jesus *said
to him, "Because
you have seen Me, have you believed? Blessed
{are} they who
did
not see, and {yet} believed."

The Great Commission
Acts 1:6
So
when they had come together, they were asking Him, saying,
"Lord, is it at this time You are
restoring
the kingdom to Israel?"
Acts 1:7
He
said to them, "It
is not for you to know times or epochs which the Father has fixed by
His own
authority;

Hebrews 1:1
God,
after He spoke long ago to the fathers in the prophets in many
portions and in many ways,
Hebrews 1:2

these last days has spoken to us in His Son, whom He appointed heir
of all things, through whom
also
He made the world.

And
He is the radiance of His glory and the exact representation of His

Hebrews 1:4

having
the glory of God. Her brilliance was like a very costly stone, as a
stone of crystal-clear jasper.

had a great and high wall, with twelve gates, and at the gates
twelve angels; and names {were}
written
on them, which are {the names} of the twelve tribes of the sons of Israel.

were} three gates on the east and three gates on the north and three
gates on the south

three gates on the west.

the wall of the city had twelve foundation stones, and on them
{were} the twelve names of
the
twelve apostles of the Lamb.
Revelation 21:15
The
one who spoke with me had a gold measuring rod to measure the city,
and its gates and its
wall.

The
city is laid out as a square, and its length is as great as the
width; and he measured the city
with
the rod, fifteen hundred miles; its length and width and
height are equal.
Revelation 21:17
And
he measured its wall, seventy-two yards, {according to} human
measurements, which
are
{also} angelic {measurements.}
Revelation 21:18
The
material of the wall was jasper; and the city was pure gold, like
clear glass.
Revelation 21:19
The
foundation stones of the city wall were adorned with every kind of
precious stone. The first
foundation
stone was jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, chalcedony; the
fourth, emerald;

the
fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh, chrysolite; the
eighth, beryl; the ninth, topaz;
the
tenth, chrysoprase; the eleventh, jacinth; the twelfth, amethyst.
Revelation 21:21
And
the twelve gates were twelve pearls; each one of the gates was a
single pearl. And the
street
of the city was pure gold, like transparent glass.
Revelation 21:22
I
saw no temple in it, for the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb are
its temple.
Revelation 21:23
And
the city has no need of the sun or of the moon to shine on it, for
the glory of God has illumined
it,
and its lamp {is} the Lamb.
Revelation 21:24
The
nations will walk by its light, and the kings of the earth will
bring their glory into it.
Revelation 21:25
In
the daytime (for there will be no night there) its gates will never
be closed;
Revelation 21:26
and
they will bring the glory and the honor of the nations into it;
Revelation 21:27
and
nothing unclean, and no one who practices abomination and lying,
shall ever come into it,
but
only those whose names are written in the Lamb's book of life.
