How to have Eternal Life:

1. God created you.
“Then God said, let us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness.” Genesis 1:26.

2. Satan, the devil, created the problem of today.
After Satan told Eve to disobey God by eating the forbidden fruit, Satan said, “You will not surely die.” Genesis 3:4. But, that sin of disobedience did cause the death of our relationship with God and the desire to sin came into man.

3. Jesus Christ is the solution.
“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him, should not perish but have everlasting life.” John 3:16. To help you know a little more, other scriptures that will be helpful follow. All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Romans 3:23. For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 6:23. 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 Whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved. Romans 10:13.

4. How we can be when we allow Jesus to come into our lives and live through us.
When we receive Jesus as Savior, He will come into our lives and transform us into His likeness. “I have been crucified with Christ, it is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me.” Galatians 2:20. Jesus wants us to believe His word and allow Him to live through us. John 15:5b, “for without Me you can do nothing”. He wants us to recognize our total dependence on Him to live the Christian Life. When we allow Jesus to live through us, our children and grandchildren will see that Jesus is truly alive today. Other verses in the bible that will be helpful are: John 10:10b and 17:21; Romans 5:10, 1st Corinthians 3:16 and 6:19; Colossians 3:3 and 1:27.

If you want Him to come into your life, ask Him right now. Admit that you are a sinner, unable to save yourself, repent (turn from sin to God) and simply ask Him to come into your life. “Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone heard My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me.” Revelation 3:20.
