Christ Alone Saves You From Hell

Just saw some stats that make me cringe! Thank you Pastor Larry for this bit of info.

Just read in my devotion something powerful. It was talking about a survey taken of almost 10,000 people. It asked "do you believe you are going to Heaven or to Hell". 90% said Heaven 10% said Hell. It then asked "why" they thought they were going to Heaven. 60% said because they were a "good person". There was about 5 other answers but only 10% said because they are "born again and living a life for Christ". So, 9 out of 10 people believe they are going to heaven but 9 out of 10 are not born again (in this survey). The devil has many people duped. It closed with this "survey". "Remember, 1 out of 1 is going to Hell without Jesus.

O Lord God, this is breaking my heart. Convict the ones who are believing a lie! Convict us, the ones that know the truth and do not speak up! Amen

I will not make excuses, the bible is real, it is the inspired word of the living God who is the alpha, the beginning and the omega, the end, there is no other! All other, so called forms of gods are false, leading the followers straight to hell! Your eternal destination is dependent on you knowing Christ alone saves man from hell. You can not be good enough because you have been born from the first man Adam, a sinful rebellious man!

Genesis 2:17 but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat of it you will surely die."
Romans 5:12

Therefore, just as sin came into the world through one man, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because all sinned—
1 Corinthians 15:21 For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead comes also through a man.
Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

The gift of salvation is because Christ satisfied the wrath that was yours! He did this by dying on the cross, a Lamb spotless devoid of sin, an acceptable sacrifice that God took as payment so that man might be saved from an eternity in hell.

Hebrews 7:27 Unlike the other high priests, he does not need to offer sacrifices day after day, first for his own sins, and then for the sins of the people. He sacrificed for their sins once for all when he offered himself.
Hebrews 10:10 And by that will, we have been made holy through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
Hebrews 10:12 But when this priest had offered for all time one sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God.
John 6:51 I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever. This bread is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world."

Christ is our mediator!

1 Timothy 2:5
For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus.

Do not cheaper what Christ has done by thinking works will get you to heaven.
