A righteous standing before God has always been by faith, through the shed blood of Jesus Christ without the works of the Law.—Dr. Bud Calvert
But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Hebrews 11:6
If I asked you this question, “Are you going to Heaven or Hell?” what would your answer be? How would you know? What would you base your answer on? Would it be the way you feel? Would it be based on something your mother told you happened many years ago? Would it be based on a prayer you prayed? Would it be because it was written in a family Bible many years ago? How do you know where you will spend eternity? How is your standing before God?
Here is a simple answer for you… the Bible has the answer. It can be summed up by this one verse: “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
