How Can I Know For Sure That I Am Going To Heaven?
First, you must accept that you are a sinner.
(Romans 3:23) "For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God."
No one is perfect. No one has lived up to God's perfect standard.
Second, you must accept that as a sinner you owe a penalty.
(Romans 6:23) "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."
This death is described in the Bible as the second death, the lake of fire.
(Revelation 20:14) "Death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death."
If we pay what we owe as sinners, we must spend an eternity in the lake of fire (Hell).
Third, you must accept that Jesus Christ has already paid our sin debt.
(Romans 5:6) "For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly."
Christ was not a sinner, and the Bible teaches that God took all of our sin and placed it on Christ. While Christ was bearing all of our sins in His own body, God punished Him in our place to pay the debt we owe. This is not something God promised to do. It is something God has already done.
(John 3:16) "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever beleiveth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
(II Corinthians 5:21) "He hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him."
It is a fact, Jesus christ has already paid your sin debt.
Fourth, you must accept by faith what Jesus Christ did for you.
(John 3:36) "He that believth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him."
In the previous verse, Jesus divides the world into two groups: those who are believing and those who are not believing on th Son. Those who believe have everlasting life, and those who believe not shall not see life.
The word believe means to trust, to depend on, to rely on. To believe on the Lord Jesus Christ means that you accept the fact that you are a sinner, that as a sinner you owe the sin penalty, and that Jesus Christ died on the cross to pay the debt you owe. But it means going one step further. It means that you will completely trust Christ to get you to Heaven--that you will put the matter of your salvation in His hands and depend on Him for everlasting life.
Now the moment you do this, God promises you are not condemned but have everlasting life and that you shall never perish.
(John 5:24) "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life."
If you will trust Jesus Christ as your Saviour, pray this simple prayer:
Dear Lord Jesus, I know I am a sinner and I desreve to pay my own sin debt, but I do believe that You died for me to pay the debt that I owe. Today, the best I know how, I trust You as my Saviour. I will depend on You from this moment on for my salvation. Now help me to live for You and to be a good Christian.
Amen.
"We believe Baptists are the original Christians. We did not commence our existence at the reformation, we were reformers before Luther or Calvin were born; we never came from the Church of Rome, for we were never in it, but we have an unbroken line up to the apostles themselves. We have always existed from the very days of Christ, and our principles, sometimes veiled and forgotten, like a river which may travel under ground for a little season, have always had honest and holy adherents."
-Charles Haddon Spurgeon - April 2, 1861
"If I were a Roman Catholic, I should turn a heretic, in sheer desperation, because I would rather go to heaven than go to purgatory."
-Charles Haddon Spurgeon
"A sinner can no more repent and believe without the Holy Spirit's aid than he can create a world."
-Charles Haddon Spurgeon
"Humility is to make a right estimate of one's self."
-Charles Haddon Spurgeon
"The way to Heaven is ascending; we must be content to travel uphill, though it be hard and tiresome, and contrary to the natural bias of our flesh."
- Jonathan Edwards
“Our righteousness is in Him, and our hope depends, not upon the exercise of grace in us, but upon the fullness of grace and love in Him, and upon His obedience unto death.”
-John Newton
"Although my memory's fading, I remember two things very clearly; I'm a great sinner and Christ is a great Savior."
-John Newton
“This is faith: a renouncing of everything we are apt to call our own and relying wholly upon the blood, righteousness and intercession of Jesus”
-John Newton
"T'was Grace that taught my heart to fear, and Grace my fears relieved. How precious did that Grace appear the hour I first believed."
-John Newton
“Many have puzzled themselves about the origin of evil. I am content to observe that there is evil, and that there is a way to escape from it, and with this I begin and end.”
-John Newton
"It is tragic for our God, Who gave us His Son to die on the cross, to beg us to love Him."
- Jack Frasure Hyles
"If I live for self, I can only live for one. If I live for others, I can live for 3,000,000,000."
- Jack Frasure Hyles
"If I take care of my character, my reputation will take care of itself."
- Dwight Lyman Moody
"I thank God that the gospel is to be preached to every creature. There is no man so far gone, but the grace of God can reach him; no man so desperate or black, but He can forgive him."
- Dwight Lyman Moody
"We sometimes fear to bring our troubles to God, because they must seem small to Him who sitteth on the circle of the earth. But if they are large enough to vex and endanger our welfare, they are large enough to touch His heart of love. For love does not measure by a merchant's scales, not with a surveyor's chain. It hath a delicacy... unknown in any handling of material substance."
- Reuben A. Torrey
“When I was young I was sure of everything; in a few years, having been mistaken a thousand times, I was not half so sure of most things as I was before; at present, I am hardly sure of anything but what God has revealed to me”
- John Wesley
"A servant of God has but one Master. It ill becomes the servant to seek to be rich, and great, and honored in that world where his Lord was poor, and mean, and despised."
- George Mueller
"The greatest ability is dependability."
- Bob Jones
"God give us in government some born-again, blood-washed believers who have a backbone made of iron and a will of steel, who will govern by Bible principles and who will stand up for the right things in this country."
-Curtis Hutson
Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.
