Jesus' Call
The call of Jesus is
"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
For my yoke is easy and my burden is light." Matthew 11:28-30.
Jesus offers peace for one's soul.
Christians believe there is a God who loves us and offers us eternal life with Him in heaven. Jesus speaking of himself said,
"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son,
that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world,
but to save the world through him."
The Christian believes God reached down through Jesus Christ to mankind to show him the way to heaven. That it is by the grace of God we get to heaven. The apostle Paul stating,
"For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith
and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God
not by works, so that no one can boast."
Ultimately salvation is an act of faith, Hebrews stating,
"And without faith it is impossible to please God,
because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists
and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him"
Faith defined as,
"Now faith is being sure of what we hope for
and certain of what we do not see."
That being said the choice is always up to you.
Do you believe in God?
Please think about it.
