WHAT'S THE GOOD NEWS?
 

There is a wonderful book which contains everything we need to know to live our lives the way our Creator intended. (II Timothy 3:16-17) There are countless truths to live by found in this book, but if we were to boil everything down to its most basic message, this book, YHVH's message to mankind, makes three things clear...

First, the Bible says that mankind has a problem, and that problem is called sin. Sin is any action or attitude that falls short of YHVH's perfect standard. Every one of us has that problem. (Romans 3:23)  The Bible also teaches us that there is a consequence to sin - sin separates us from YHVH. (Habakkuk 1:13)  In fact, the Bible tells us that the end result of sin is death, (Romans 6:23) and that there is nothing that we ourselves can do to solve the problem of sin.

Second, thankfully, the Bible also says that there is a solution to the problem of sin, and that solution is the person YASHUA THE MESSIAH. (Rom 6:23)  It tells us that YHVH loved us so much that He sent His only begotten Son, Yashua, to die in our place. (John 3:16) Yashua paid the penalty for our sin so that we would not have to be forever separated from Him. (I John 4:10)  The Bible also tells us that Yashua is the only solution for our sin problem. (John 14:6)

Third, the Bible requires a decision. It is not enough to just know about Yashua the Messiah and His death on the cross. We must choose to put our trust in Him, in order to receive this free gift of salvation that YHVH offers. (John 1:12)

All of us have the problem of sin. There is only one solution to the problem - accepting the person of Yashua The Messiah and His death on the cross for us.  Every one of us must decide...

What will you decide?

What will you do with Messiah Yashua?

 

You must make a decision.
What are your options?


There are only three possible answers to this question:

1. To say yes and accept YHVH's free gift of salvation (from the consequences of sin) by putting your trust in Yashua The Messiah.

2. To say no and reject YHVH's offer of salvation. The Bible says that those who make this choice will spend eternity separated from HIM in a place called Hell.

3. To say maybe, and try to put off the decision to a more 'convenient' time. The Bible does say that YHVH is patient, wanting everyone to come to the point of accepting His gift of salvation. (II Peter 3:9) However, none of us is promised that we will be here tomorrow, and because of this "x-factor" of death, trying to put off our decision by saying 'maybe' automatically puts us in the "no" (same as 'not now') category.

So, as you see, there are really only two choices (answers) to the question, "What will you do with Yashua?" To accept His free gift of salvation or to reject that gift.

What have you done with Yashua?  If you have never accepted His offer of eternal life, I can think of no better time than right now. (II Corinthians 6:2)  If you would like to say yes to Him, you can say it right now, wherever you are, whatever you are doing.

The invitation is open - you can accept the gift of salvation and get rid of the 'death sentance' for your sins. It doesn't matter what you've done. The offer is open to everyone.

Please accept His offer!

Please, will you join me in prayer, and say 'yes' to Messiah Yashua?

You probably realize you're about to make the most important decision of your life.

IF YOU ARE READY TO SAY 'YES' TO YASHUA, THE MESSIAH OF ISRAEL, AND BEGIN A 'RELATIONSHIP' WITH HIM, YOU NEED ONLY ASK HIM...

Yashua said, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest."
He also said, "whoever comes to me I will never turn away."

So if you ask Him, you will be accepted.

The way to talk to Him is through prayer. Your prayer should be from your heart. 

Why not pray right now, and really mean it from your heart:

Father in Heaven,
I know that I am a sinner
and need forgiveness.
I believe that Your Son Yashua
died in my place,
to pay the penalty for my sin,
and rose again for my salvation.
I want to turn from my sinful ways,
so I now ask you,
YHVH YASHUA, to come
into my life and save me.

In Yashua's name I pray, Amen.

The Bible says, "Everyone who calls on the name of the YHVH will be saved." So now, that you have asked Him into your life, and believed that He died to save you, you are saved. You are His legitimate child, bound for Heaven with absolute certainty - no 'maybe' or 'I hope so'.

The difficulties of living as a Believer and follower of Messiah in a sinful world are many. Therefore it is essential that you immediately seek other sincere, Bible-believers to help you stay on the right path and grow in knowledge of Truth and Grace.
