It is easy to get caught up in “life”. As a matter of a fact that is exactly what the Devil wants you to do. He wants you to be too busy to consider Christ. So have you considered Him who gave his all for you? God’s Word is very clear on the matter of Salvation, but more often then not we make it more difficult than it really is. You can be saved and know it! You are a sinner, and have offended a holy God: Romans 3:23 “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.” Your sins have to be paid for, and death will be the penalty: Romans 6:23 “For the wages of sin is death…” It is not over when you die, as you will face judgment one day: Hebrews 9:27 “And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment.” When the Books are opened, you will get what you deserve in eternity: Revelation 21:8 “But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” But God loved you so much He took on himself a human life and body and now you have a perfect substitute, who took your place at Calvary: Romans 5:8 “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that , while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” You must now receive Jesus by asking Him to save you: Romans 10:9 “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.”
