Heaven is not for good people but for forgiven people.

I’m a part of a team at my church called, “Evangalism Explosion.” Our goal is to tell others about Jesus and to share the gospel.

There’s still a misconception in the church, It appears that most people in the congregation think that it’s the sole job of the pastor to evangelize in the community. But, in reality, it’s not. It’s anyone who is a Christian. You are commanded to be a part of the great commission.

That doesn’t mean you have to be an ordained minister, have completed seminary, or been on a mission trip. It means that you can tell others about Jesus right where you are.

You can tell others in your neighborhood the good news of salvation. You can tell the person sitting next to you on the plane.

There is no limit to where or when we can evangelize.

One of the questions we typically ask is, “if you were to die today and found yourself standing before God, and He asked you, “Why should I let you into heaven?”, what do you think you would say?”

I’ve heard more people say, “well, I haven’t killed anyone and I try to do good things for people.”

Friends, that’s a sad place to be. The only ticket into Heaven is forgiveness from God; repentance to the One who died in your place.

Accept the free pass today. Give your life to Him. You’ll never be good enough to get there.

John 14:6 - “Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
