---TRUSTING IN CHRIST GIVES EVERLASTING LIFE!~~
--"For God so loved the world that He gave his only begotten Son. That whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life.
-"For God sent not his Son into this world to condemn the world but that the world through Him might be saved."
--(John 3:16-17)

"He who believes in the Son has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him." --(JOHN 3:36)

----THE "SHALL NOTS" OF JOHN'S GOSPEL
---There are many wonderful promises to the believer listed in the gospel of John. Many of these promises are things which “shall” happen, but let us consider seven of these which teach of things which “shall not” happen to the believer whose trust is in Christ. Teaching of the indwelling Holy Spirit, Christ said, “Whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life” (4:14).
Similarly, “Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst” (6:35).
Furthermore, He taught: “I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life” (8:12).
Our deepest needs are met in Him. **Having once believed, we are placed into His family and He promises, “I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand” (10:28). In Him, we are utterly secure. Why? “He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life” (5:24). Consequently, we have no fear of death. “I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?” (11:25-26).
As the familiar verse in our text tells us, if we only believe “that he gave his only begotten Son,” we shall “not perish, but have everlasting life.”

--ARE YOU SURE OF WHERE YOU WILL SPEND ETERNITY?
-Jesus is the only One who can save you from judgment and condemnation. He died so that your sins could be forgiven and you could spend eternity in the presence of God.
First, you must turn away from your sins. Confess and repent to the Lord that you need Him to help you live for him.
Second, you must receive Jesus as your Lord and Savior. You can do that now, and He promises to live in you and to transform your life. You can have a whole new life if you will surrender to Christ.~~
--**START BY SIMPLY TALKING TO GOD.-You can pray a prayer like this: "O God, I am a sinner. I'm sorry for my sin. I want to turn from my sin. Please forgive me. I believe Jesus Christ is Your Son; I believe He died on the Cross for my sin and Your raised Him to life. I want to trust Him as my Savior and follow Him as my Lord from this day forward. Lord, I put my trust in You and surrender my life to You. Please come into my life and fill me with Your Holy Spirit. In Jesus ' Name. Amen." ~
