Great News!<br>
God created you, owns you and gave you commands to obey.<br>
You have disobeyed God - as your conscience very well attests to you.<br>
God's holiness and justice compel Him to punish you in Hell.<br>
Jesus Christ became Man, was crucified, buried and rose from the dead<br>
as a substitute for all who trust in Him, redeeming them from Hell.<br>
If you repent (turn from your sin) and believe (trust) in Jesus Christ,<br>
you will go to Heaven. Otherwise you will go to Hell.<br>
Warning! Good works are a result, not cause, of saving trust.<br>
