John 3:36 He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life but the wrath of God abideth on him. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world but that the world through him might be saved. John 3:16-18 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. We deserve to go to Hell, but Jesus took the punishment for us so that we don’t have to. The word commendeth means "showed”." God showed His love for us by giving His own Son, Jesus, to die on the cross for our sins. But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. Romans 5:6-8 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. Jesus took the punishment for sin in our place. So far we have talked about bad news now let me tell you some good news!ģ.

Revelation 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.Īccording to God’s Word, all unsaved sinners will go to Hell when they die as punishment for their sins. One is the physical death referred to in Romans 5:12 (See Point 1) the other is a spiritual death that we see in Romans 6:23 and Revelation 21:8. The payment for our sin is death, which includes separation from God in a place that the Bible calls Hell. Romans 6:23a For the wages of sin is death …Ī wage is a payment. We have all fallen short of God's requirements, for at one time or another, we have all deliberately chosen to disobey God. Sin includes wrong thoughts, words, and actions, such as lust, greed, pride, swearing, lying, or stealing.
God's Word reminds us over and over that we are sinners. Romans 5:12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned: Romans 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God The verses below explain the Bible way of salvation.Įcclesiastes 7:20 For there is not a just man upon earth, that doeth good, and sinneth not. Fortunately, the Bible tells us exactly how we can have our sins forgiven and live forever with Jesus in Heaven. However, the sad truth is that not everyone will do so. Everyone would like to go to Heaven when they die.
