I Must Tell You This

[ English | Vietnamese ]

I know something so wonderful that I must tell you! It’s so vital that it may change your entire future as it did mine. In fact, the decision you make about it will affect you both in life and death.

First, let me emphasize that this message is absolutely true, because God said it. When God makes a promise, you can rest upon it, because His promises can never fail. God will not make you believe this message--that is your choice--but He will hold you responsible for having heard it.

It is a very personal message--something you must decide about. You must say either "I will" or "I will not."

Here is the message. It is an exact quotation from God’s Word, the Holy Bible:

"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.

Did you ever hear such wonderful words? Think for a moment what they say. They reveal three marvelous facts.

First, "God so loved the world"! Since you are in the world, He loved you. If that doesn’t astonish you, remember that when God loved you, He loved a sinner! The Bible says that we all have sinned (Romans 3:23). And if you are honest you will agree.

Although God loves you, He still hates your sin. Since God is holy and must punish sin, He must make a holy way of saving sinners. Otherwise the sinner must pay for His sins, and that would mean spending eternity in hell (Revelation 20:15).

The second great fact is this: "He gave his only begotten Son"! God loved you so much that he sent His Son to earth to become a man and die on the Cross of Calvary so that you might be saved.

You see, someone must pay the penalty of sin--either you or a sinless substitute. God gave His Son Jesus Christ to be your sinless substitute. He shed His blood so that your sins might be put away, so that you might have eternal life.

And now the third tremendous fact: "Whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life"! Think of it! God gives eternal life to those who believe in Jesus Christ. The Savior has finished the work. He has died, has risen from the grave, and has gone back into heaven. Now your part is to believe in Him.

This simply means that you must agree that you are a sinner, realize that Christ has paid the full penalty for your sins, and then receive Him as your Lord and Savior.

This is the message which I had to tell you. Now you must make a decision. Remember that your time on earth is short, but your decision for Christ lasts an eternity. Will you accept Him, or reject Him? Will you believe on Him, or refuse Him?

Think of it once again:

"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."

If you will say yes to Jesus, sign your name below as a testimony of your decision and write to the address below for helpful Christian literature.
