way to heaven

Well, there's no doubt about it - EVERYONE wants to go to heaven. So, isn't it a strange thing that most people don't bother to prepare for it? There's no preparation necessary for hell. It's straight ahead - you can't miss it. But heaven is a prepared place for a prepared people. So then, how do you prepare for heaven?

On today’s broadcast, we’ll be considering making the necessary reservations for the most important journey we could every make – the journey into eternity. Nobody finds themselves in heaven without a prior booking. Are you prepared for that trip? Your certainly need to be! The old hymn says, “My passport to the realms of bliss is Jesus died for me.” Have you made YOUR reservation? 

Every religion in our world today stresses the importance of the need to do something in order to obtain the approval of a divine being, the forgiveness for wrongdoings, or the attainment of spiritual peace within. The Bible, however, is very clear in its emphasis that there is nothing that we are able to do to please God, that we are spiritually bankrupt. Over and over again, the scriptures point out how that eternal life and forgiveness with God is a GIFT – a gift that comes from God, not from us. That is really why the gospel is really all about good news – there is a divine solution to a tremendous problem that we are unable to fix ourselves. 

This message is a 'bird's eye-view" of the basics of the gospel message. An answer to questions people often ask when they become concerned about spiritual things. Questions like - What has God done? And why did He do it? How much did it cost God? How much does it cost me? And who's included? We hope that the answers to these questions will open your understanding as to what God is trying to communicate to us poor sinners.
