Is god real?

IS THERE A GOD?

Yes, there is one, true God. He is real.


God is perfect, loving, holy, eternal, almighty, all powerful, all knowing, all seeing and omnipresent (He's everywhere).


GOD CREATED THE WORLD

The Bible tells us that He is the Creator of the world and everything in it. The evidence of His work is clearly seen in the universe and world. He created the world to be perfect: without corruption or evil.

Romans 1:20 (ESV) says: "For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse." 


WE CHOSE A LIFE APART FROM GOD

God also made a man and woman to live in this perfect world. God gave them a choice: to obey Him or not. They chose to disobey God and sin entered the world. Sin is anything that is not in line with God's will. God is holy and perfect. Sin cannot be in His presence.


"For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" Romans 3:23, NKJV

"The wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." Romans 6:23, NKJV

are HEAVEN AND HELL REAL?

HEAVEN

Yes, heaven is a real place. 

WHAT IS HEAVEN LIKE?

Jesus told us what heaven is like in John 14:2-3: "In My Father's house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also."

HELL

In the Bible, Jesus, the disciples, and the prophets of the Old Testament all spoke of the reality of a future, final judgment and of hell. Though the very thought of hell terrifies us, it's a prospect that we must accept that's written about in the Bible. Yes, hell is a real place.


WHERE DOES THE BIBLE TALK ABOUT HELL?

Jesus Christ talked much more about God's judgment and punishment than he did about love. For an extensive list of Bible references, visit the Bible scholar, Tony Biller's, article here or download the pdf file here.


WHO WILL GO TO HEAVEN AND WHO WILL GO TO HELL?

The reality is that people sin and one day God will punish the world with fire (2 Peter 3:3-7). Only those who have a right relationship with God by accepting Jesus as their LORD and Savior will be saved from this judgment.

God loves you. He wants a personal relationship with you. He proved it by sending His Son to die in your place. He wants to be your Heavenly Father. He wants you to live forever with Him in heaven. God does not force us into a relationship with Him. He gives us the option to love Him. 


"But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us." Romans 5:8, NKJV


HOW CAN I HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD?

Do you believe that Jesus was God, lived a perfect life, died on the cross for your sin, and rose again on the 3rd day? Do you want to love and obey God? This is how you have a relationship with God: 

"If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved." Romans 10:9, NKJV


PRAY AND BELIEVE

You can pray (talk) to God and tell Him you are sorry for your sin. Tell Him you believe Jesus was punished for your sin, and you want to follow, love, and obey Him.


WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?

The Bible says: "But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name." John 1:12. You are part of God's family! You are a child of God.

"Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God!" 1 John 3:1


IT'S YOUR CHOICE

What will you do? Will you choose to accept God's love? Will you ask Him to come into your life? Will you choose to seek Him?
