-"Inside every person is a desire to know God."

---WHO'S TO BLAME?

--"For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved."
--JOHN 3:17

WHY would a loving God send anyone to Hell? Let me answer that question with a question.

If someone deliberately commits a crime and is caught, who is to blame if that person is found guilty and sentenced to jail? Is the Judge to blame--or is the criminal?

The lawbreaker is to blame for what has happened to him, not the Judge. Yes, the Judge sentenced him, but he alone broke the law, and he alone is to blame for the penalty he received. The Judge was only following the Law. The lawbreaker can't blame the judge; he can only blame himself.

Likewise, when we break God's Law, we stand condemned, and we ourselves are to blame for what happens to us, not God. We can only blame ourselves for the consequences.

But we don't have to pay the penalty for our sins because Christ has already paid it for us. By His death on the Cross, Jesus took the punishment you and I deserve. Jesus suffered judgment and Hell for us. Praise God, for His love!

We committed the crimes, yet Jesus took all the sins of the entire world, and carried them on His shoulders and nailed them to the Cross. He died so that we might live with Him eternally. But we MUST, make a CHOICE. Will we accept Jesus' sacrificial death on the Cross for the forgiveness of our sins, ask Him to come into our life, forgive us, and help us to live for Him?

Jesus stands at the door and knocks, asking if we will invite Him into our lives. "Without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness of sin." Jesus suffered a horrible death on the Cross 2,000 years ago so that your and my sins will be forgiven. Please don't let another day pass, without asking Jesus to come into your life, and set you free from sin, self, Satan and the world.

Turn away from your sin, confess that He is God's Son, and He will forgive you--setting you free from the past to live a beautiful future in eternity. You can use the following prayer or your own words:

'Lord Jesus, I believe You are truly the Son of God. I confess that I have sinned against You in thought, word, and deed. Please forgive all my wrongdoing, and let me live in relationship with You from now on. I receive You as my personal Savior, accepting the work You accomplished once and for all on the Cross. Thank you, Lord for saving me. Help me to live a life that is pleasing to You. Amen~
