Pastor Charles Lawson - The Dollar and the NWO (Matthew 13:38-50 (OLD SCHOOL FIRE! 1995)

Are you sure you're going to heaven when you die?
Or are you willing to chance your eternal soul and
possibly end up in hell fire?? Why not make sure of the
matter today, while there is still time?

The good news is: You can KNOW that you're going to
heaven. The Bible clearly states:

"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." 1 John 5:13

You see, God wants us to KNOW, and have the matter
settled. There can be no misery greater than living life
wondering if some day you will lift up your eyes in hell!

The Bible so wonderfully makes salvation clear. It is a
gift given of God, that cannot be earned in any way of
our own doing

"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." Ephesians 2:8-9

"Not by works of righteousness which we have
done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the
washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy
Ghost." Titus 3:5

Jesus Christ made this wonderful, free salvation
possible.

"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

Do you see what the verse says? It is simply BELIEF, or
rather FAITH, TRUST, in Jesus Christ that saves. I am
so thankful for these following verses that tell of man
who sincerely wanted to be saved, and was told how:

"Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came
trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas, And
brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be
saved?
And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and
thou shalt be saved, and thy house." Acts 16:29-30

Christ came to this earth, God in the flesh, a perfect
man who never committed sin. He sacrificed His life
of the cross of Calvary, shed His blood, as PAYMENT
for our sin. You see, our sin separates us from a
perfect and Holy God. We have no way to approach
God in and of ourselves, for He is HOLY, righteous,
perfect, and pure. He cannot tolerate sin. So Jesus
took upon Himself the sins of the world, that we might
be reconciled *(bought back) to God. We can come to
the Father through Jesus Christ His Son!

Jesus saith unto him, 1 am the way, the truth, and the
life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." John
14:6

So what must I believe, more specifically, about Jesus
Christ to be eternally saved, you may ask...? You are
saved by BELIEVING the good news of the Gospel,
Christ's death, burial, and resurrection!

When you accept this beautiful truth, that Christ
loves you and died for YOUR sins, and arose from the grave FOR YOU, TO SAVE YOU FROM HELL,
and you simply say yes to Him (call upon the Lord),
in child-like simplicity, offering nothing of yourself
or self-righteousness to God, but clinging only to
CHRIST'S MERIT and HIS righteousness, YOU WILL BE
SAVED.

1 Corinthians 15 says:

"1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel
which I preached unto you, which also ye have
received, and wherein ye stand;

2 BY WHICH ALSO YE ARE SAVED, if ye keep in
memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have
believed in vain.

3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which 1 also
received, how that Christ died for our sins according to
the scriptures;

4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the
third dav accordina to the scriotures:"

"That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord
Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath
raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

Would you be willing to put your whole-hearted faith
on Jesus to make it to heaven... instead of trusting
yourself and your own way? If you say yes, and will
trust what the Bible promises to every sinner who
would believe on Jesus Christ, would you humbly go to
God in prayer and ask Him to save you in the name of
Jesus?

God bless you all who watch my videos. I pray many
will come to know of the wonderful saving grace of
Jesus Christ.
