How do we know there is a God?
God is the ultimate reality with whom everyone in the universe must come to terms.
God demands perfect obedience from every person.
The truth is that man cannot perfectly obey.
Jesus the Messiah is the perfect man.
God graciously allows the obedience of Jesus to count for any and all who will trust Him.
My friend, do not reject Jesus the Messiah. Receive the gift of righteousness.

Jesus rose from the dead and was seen by many.
Three days after His crucifixion, Jesus rose from the dead
and appeared to different individuals. On one occasion five
hundred people saw Him alive. Forty days after His
resurrection He ascended into heaven in the presence of
many eye witnesses. "While they beheld, He was taken up; and
a cloud received Him out of their sight"
(Acts 1:9). The Son of God returned to heaven as a perfect
man, and we can enter heaven through Him. He is the
forerunner who has prepared the way for us who believe on
Him. Contrary to popular thinking the Scriptures reveal there
are not many roads to God but only one road. Jesus said, "I
am the way, the truth, and the life, no man cometh unto the
Father, but by me" (John 14:6).
His resurrection was a powerful declaration that He was
indeed the Son of God (Romans 1:4). He reversed the
curse of death and secured the sentence of righteousness
for believing sinners. His resurrection guaranteed that there
would be a resurrection for man as well. "For since by man
came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. For as in
Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive"
(1 Corinthians 15:21-22).
The Scriptures prophesy that Jesus will return to earth
some day to rule as the King of the world. This coming is
prophesied in the Scriptures and will be preceded by many
signs. He could return in your lifetime. Are you ready for His
Coming?
For the believer in the Lord Jesus Christ there is the hope
of a physical resurrection to eternal life. Can you imagine
being raised from the dead and living eternally in a body that
will not decay nor grow old?
For the one who rejects the
Lord, there will be a resurrection of the body as well. But
rather than spending eternity with God, He will spend
eternity in the lake of fire which has been prepared for the
Devil and his angels. "And whosoever was not found
written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire"
(Revelation 20:15).
