PIN ON YOUR FAVORITE BOARD

First, as a believer and follower of Christ, I have my Hope in Christ anchored in the Promise of his returning to take me home to Heaven for all Eternity. Now some will read this opening and think I am all sorts of CRAZY. I know the questions non-believer’s have when I discuss salvation in Christ

1. Do you believe that you have Hope in Christ?
2. Don’t You Know God is a Myth?
3. Do you know the Bible is just a fiction story that people take to extremes and want others to do the same?
4. Finally, why are you wasting what time you have, on this earth, living like Miss goody-goody? Party it up, girl!
5. Do you know I have the right to live my life as I choose to do so?

Who is your only hope for Eternal Salvation? The Hope in Christ

First and foremost, allow me to clarify that I LOVE my life and it’s very fulfilling! Secondly, I do not see my life as boring by any means!

What happens When You Place Hope in the Bible?

I want to give you something to think about. Let’s say for argument’s sake that I’m wrong and you’re right. Eternity is FOREVER! I just stated that I am completely satisfied with my life so I have lost nothing by putting my faith and hope in Christ.

Since I have placed my hope in Christ I will gain everything! I proclaim that I am a Sinner saved by grace alone by faith alone not by works but by the shedding of Jesus’ blood on the cross!

I will keep sharing with others about the Love and Hope in Christ that can only be found in accepting him as your Savior.

What happens When you do not place your hope in the bible?

Now, if you’re wrong and I am right by putting my hope in Christ I want you to consider the consequences of NOT putting your hope in the bible!

You may believe with all your heart mind and soul that your life is fulfilled and rewarding.

Is it?

Do you feel satisfied or are you forever searching for something or someone to fill the emptiness?

Once you obtain what you thought you wanted do you get bored with it and then move on to the next thing? I am almost certain the same cycle continues over and over again.

I HAVE BEEN WHERE YOU’RE AT THINKING THERE IS NO HOPE IN CHRIST

I ran from one thing to the next trying to fill that void. Now, I can tell you with all honesty you will NEVER find satisfaction apart from Christ. This is why you must place your hope in the bible and grasp the hope in Christ!

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT SALVATION

What is the Eternal Truth and Reality of Hell?

Allow me to share with you the reality of your eternal destiny apart from placing hope in Christ!

Hope in Christ is your anchor for Eternity. What will your choice be? Don’t just take my word for it. Get out your Bible and read the scriptures study seek a mentor and pray for guidance.

Keep an open mind and ask for the Holy Spirit’s direction. I will be praying for you also that you’ll put your hope in the Bible, my sweet friend!

In that place, there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God but you yourselves cast out. Luke 13:28

in christ alone my hope is found

1. God made you and he loves you and he wants to receive your love back.
2. God created you with the purpose to live forever.
3. God has prepared two places where you can spend eternity. Heaven and Hell.
4. You get to choose where you’ll spend eternity.

You can Hope in Christ and choose to live forever in Heaven with God. And, finally, there is no second chance after you die. That is it, game over. No do-overs. You will find yourself, kneeling before the almighty creator, of the universe, and hear these words.

NO! NOT NOW!

I must obey what God put on my heart. What kind of Christian would I be, if I didn’t heed that warning? Heaven is Real! Hell is Real! Put your hope in Jesus.

Will you choose Hell for all eternity, or will you choose Heaven for all eternity? The ball is in your corner so choose wisely! In Christ ALONE…Hope is Found in Jesus Christ ALONE!!
