Subject: Would you like to be saved?
In reply to: Rev. Mike Sutcliffe 's message, "Only Jesus can satisfy!!!" on 11:53:22 07/06/03 Sun

Jesus Christ said in John 10:10:

". . . I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly."
John 10:10
Oh, what a joy! A peace that passeth all understanding!

"And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus."
Phil. 4:17
As I write this, I’m searching my vocabulary and my heart for the words to convey the joy and satisfaction I’ve got in Jesus Christ – but friend, I don’t have the words to describe what He did in my life!

Oh, how I wish I did! Oh, how I wish more than anything I did! Oh, how I wish I could stand on top of the world and say, "Earth, this is what you’re looking for. This is what is missing. Jesus Christ is the way, the truth and the life… (John 14:6)

Jesus Christ gave me a joy, a peace, and real life! More than any drug, alcohol, any experience, any wealth, any fortune or fame could possibly satisfy.

Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!
For he satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness.
Psalms 107:8-9
I can say with the apostle Peter – Jesus Christ gave me a "joy unspeakable":

Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory:
1 Peter 1:8

In John 14:27, the Lord Jesus makes a wonderful statement:

"Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. …" Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
That peace you’ve so longed for – that no amount of money – no amount of pleasure – no amount of love – could provide – is found only in the Lord Jesus!

I know what you're thinking, (the same thing I was thinking) "Aw' c'mon. All this can't be true. It just too good to be true".
Well. It's true. IT'S ABSOLUTELY TRUE!


If you don’t believe it – try Jesus out. . .

The Lord makes this "try me" challenge in Psalm 34:8:

"O taste and see that the LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him"
Psalm 34:8
Would you like to have that "peace that passeth understanding"?

Would you like to know "joy unspeakable"?

It is found only in the Lord Jesus Christ.

If you've never received Jesus Christ as your Savior, please bow your head this minute and ask the Lord Jesus Christ to save you and give YOU that "joy unspeakable".


It's Simple To Be Saved ...


Realize you are a sinner.


"As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:" Romans 3:10

"... for there is no difference. For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;" Romans 3:23


Realize you CAN NOT save yourself.

"But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; ..." Isaiah 64:6

"Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, ..." Titus 3:5


Realize that Jesus Christ died on the cross to pay for your sins.

"Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, ..." 1 Peter 2:24

"... Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood," Revelation 1:5


Simply by faith receive Jesus Christ as your personal Savior.

"But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:" John 1:12

" ...Sirs, what must I do to be saved? And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house."" Acts 16:30,31

"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." John 3:16



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Would You Like to be Saved?

Pray this prayer, and mean it with all your heart.

Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner, and unless you save me I am lost forever. I thank you for dying for me at Calvary. I come to you now, Lord the best way I know how, and ask you to save me. I now receive you as my Savior. In Jesus Christ Name, Amen.

If you just now prayed that prayer and meant it with all your heart — according to God's Words — YOU ARE SAVED!


For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
Romans 10:13
"For whosoever" — that includes YOU!

And God can not LIE!

"In hope of eternal life, which God, THAT CANNOT LIE, promised before the world began;" Titus 1:2
