Consummation
in the completion of the Father’s mission
More than 700 years before the birth of Jesus is the Old Testament prophecy from Isaiah of the fulfillment by Christ
Isaiah 61:1
The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me;
because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek;
he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives,
and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;
(KJV)
Revelation 1:17-19
And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last: I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death. Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter;
(KJV)
Luke 23:43
And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, Today shalt thou be with me in paradise.
Matthew 27:52-53
And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose, And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.
(KJV)

Excerpt from:
“Between the Crucifixion and the Resurrection”
II Corinthians 5:8
We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.
Do you know for certain that you have
ETERNAL LIFE
and that you will go to Heaven when you die?
God wants you to be sure.
The Bible says,
“These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.” I John 5:13
We are all sinners by
nature and by choice.
“For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;” Romans 3:23 (KJV)
God is Holy and Just.
He has sworn to judge ALL sin.
“And the LORD passed by before him, and proclaimed, The LORD, The LORD God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in goodness and truth, Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear the guilty;” Exodus 34:6-7 (KJV)
GOD LOVES US
He has provided a way to save us.
JESUS IS GOD AND BECAME MAN
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God… And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.” John 1:1.14 (KJV)
JESUS DIED ON THE CROSS
“For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit:” I Peter 3:18 (KJV)
JESUS WAS RESURRECTED FROM THE DEAD.
“Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.” Romans 4:25 (KJV)
WE MUST REPENT OF OUR SIN
“Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord;” Acts 3:19 (KJV)
Repentance is turning to God through Jesus and away from our sin.
WE MUST PLACE OUR FAITH IN JESUS
“For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.” Ephesians 2:8-10 (KJV)
MORE THAN FAITH – FOLLOW HIM.
“Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble.” James 2:19 (KJV)
1. Does what you have been reading make sense to you?
2. Is there any reason you would not be willing to receive God’s gift of eternal life?
3. Are you willing to place your faith in Jesus right now and turn from your sin?
The Bible Says,
“For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” Romans 10:13 (KJV)
YOU NEED TO ASK THE LORD JESUS TO SAVE YOU.
READ THIS PRAY AND SEE IF IT IS YOUR HEARTFELT CONVICTION.
Dear God,
I know that I am a sinner. Please forgive me. I know that Jesus is your son. He came and died on the cross for my sins, was raised from the dead. I am willing to turn from my sins and receive Jesus as my Savior and Lord. Thank You for saving me. Help me to follow you with all my heart, soul and strength. In Jesus’ name, Amen
CALL ON THE LORD in repentance and faith, using these or similar words of your own; and Jesus will become your Savior and Lord.
WELCOME TO THE FAMILY OF GOD
