Come to Jesus

What is more important: the world, a place that is in constant decay, or heaven, a place of eternity? The kingdom of God is more important than anything this world has to offer. It is a place that God, our heavenly Father, wants us to be in, to build on, to live for. But, I have to break the bad news. There will be very FEW who enters the kingdom of Heaven. Jesus said it himself. In all love and respect for you, I am asking this: Do you know why that is? It is because many of us do not KNOW Jesus. Many of us believe we are saved because we feel satisfied with how we're living OUR lives. We feel complacent when we are doing what we THINK is right. My friends, I'm sure not ALL of you are like this, but how can we know what the truth is if most of us don't genuinely KNOW Jesus, the one who is the Truth? People are not the Truth. Only through Jesus Christ are we able to know the absolute Truth. My friends, we need to know Jesus. We need to build a relationship with Him. We must live for Him, to have the desire to please Him each and every day. We must deny ourselves, carry our cross, and follow Him. We might say that we don't want to forsake the things of this world, that we are already comfortable with the way that we are living. My friends, Jesus promises that He will never forsake us. He promises us salvation, an invitation to the Kingdom of Heaven, a place of ETERNITY, to those who seek Him. Satan has deceived us to believe many lies, that all we need is the comforts of this world not Jesus. Although many THINK they have not been deceived, if they don't bother to seek Jesus, their Everything, with all their hearts, satan has successfully deceived them. My friends, I love you, and I want you to go to Heaven, to our Father who has the perfect love for us. Go to Jesus, seek Him with all your heart, build a relationship with Him, deny yourself, forsake the worldly things which have NO value, carry your cross for Him, and follow Him. He will lead you, and you will know His voice. He will not fail you. Trust Him and let Him take control. Go to Jesus, the light of the world!
