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

"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. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." ( Romans 10:9-10 )

Jesus said there is only one way you can receive eternal life with God. You must repent of your sins and receive Him as your Lord and Savior. If you don't, you will be condemned for eternity:

"He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God." ( John 3:18 )

To accept Jesus Christ as your Savior, simply do as the Bible tells us in Romans 10:9-10 above...believe in Him with your heart, and confess Him with your mouth. You can say this prayer or one similar for your confession:

Dear Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner and need Your forgiveness. I believe that You died for my sins, and God raised You from the dead. I want to turn from my sins. I now invite You to come into my heart and life. I want to trust and follow You as Lord and Savior. In Jesus' name, amen.

If you've just received Jesus as your Lord and Savior, welcome to the family of Christ, and to eternal life! Please read and study your Bible, and pray every day for guidance. If you don't have a Bible, here is one online: Blue Letter Bible.

I am your brother in Christ Jesus,

Keith

Hi all!

i.e. -- Non-Christians can go to hell (literally and figuratively)?

I always find it strange that any monotheistic faith that believes in a loving God could claim, "Our way or the highway to hell!" Judaism does not believe this. Our Sages say, "The righteous of all nations have a share in the world-to-come."

Be well!

Hi Stillsmallvoice,

Yes, the 'righteous of all nations' shall have a share in the world to come. But, who are the righteous, and by who's standards are they righteous...man's or God's? Here's how God sees our 'righteousness' when we attempt to be righteous on our own:

"But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags..." ( Isaiah 64:6 KJV )

"Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity." ( Matthew 23:28 KJV )

There is only one way to be righteous before God. We must receive salvation through the saving grace of God the Father by our faith in Jesus Christ:

"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:" ( Ephesians 2:8 KJV )

"If ye know that he is righteous, ye know that every one that doeth righteousness is born of him." ( 1 John 2:29 KJV )

Keith

He will turn again, he will have compassion upon us; he will subdue our iniquities; and thou wilt cast all their sins into the depths of the sea. ( Micah 7:19 KJV )

Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it. ( Malachi 3:10 KJV )
