Welcome
SERVICE TIMES 9:30 AM SUNDAY SCHOOL & 11:00 AM PRAISE & WORSHIP EVERY SUNDAY
1. HEAVEN (ETERNAL LIFE) IS A FREE GIFT.
For example, the sunshine, fresh air, and clean water are free for us.
The eternal life in heaven is a free gift from God.
The Bible says, "The GIFT of God is eternal life in Jesus Christ
our Lord." (Romans 6:23b)
It says God gives us heaven as a free gift.
2. IT IS NOT EARNED OR DESERVED.
The Bible says, "By grace, you have been saved through faith,
and that NOT OF
YOURSELVES; it is the GIFT of God, NOT OF WORKS, lest any
man should boast." (Ephesians 2:8, 9)
You receive eternal life as a genuine, free gift.
No amount of personal effort, good work, or religious deeds can
earn a place in heaven for you because eternal life, like any genuine
gift, is free.
THE GOSPEL
Grace
Man
1. MAN IS A SINNER.
The Bible says, "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God."
(Romans 3:23)
Sin Defined
When we think of sin, many times we think only of robbery, murder,
adultery, etc. But, the Bible tells us that sin is anything that doesn't
please God or a transgression of His law. Anything we do that we
shouldn't, like losing our temper or stealing - are sins of commission.
Anything we should do but don't, like failing to pray or read the
Bible, or to truly love our neighbor - are sins of omission. There are
not only sins of deed but also sins in word and thought like lying,
cursing, lust, pride, and hatred.
MAN CANNOT SAVE HIMSELF
Then how good should we be to go to heaven?
The Bible says
"Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your
Father in heaven is perfect."
(Matthew 5:48) This verse says if we want to go to
heaven by doing good, we have to be perfect in obeying God.
God
1. God is merciful therefore doesn't want to punish us.
This is because "God is love …" (I John 4:8b) The Bible says,
"I have loved you with an everlasting love." (Jeremiah 31:3b)
2. God is also just therefore must punish sins
He says, "I will by no means clear the guilty." (Exodus 34:7b),

Christ
1. Jesus Christ is the infinite God-man.
The Bible says about Jesus Christ;
"In the beginning was the Word
and the Word was God, and the Word
became flesh and dwelt among us.
" (John 1:1,14)
Jesus Christ came to earth and lived a sinless
life, but while on earth, WHAT DID HE DO?
2. He died on the cross and rose from the
dead to pay the penalty for our sins and to
purchase a place in heaven for us.
Faith
Faith is the key that opens the door to heaven.
You probably have a key chain with many keys
like this. The keys look similar.
But if you try to open the door to my house,
there is only one key that works. There is no
use believing other keys could work. Only with
the right key can open the door.
The right key to the gate to heaven is true faith
in our savior. But many people mistake two
things for saving faith:
1. One is mere INTELLECTUAL ASSENT,
that is, believing certain historical facts.
2. The other is mere TEMPORAL FAITH, that is,
trusting God in temporary crises such
as financial, family, or physical needs.
3. SAVING FAITH is trusting in Jesus Christ
alone for eternal life. It means resting upon
Christ alone and what He has done rather than
upon what you or I have done to get us into
heaven.
The Bible says,
"Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved."
(Acts 16:31a)
