How To Avoid...

The Pit and Lake of Fire, and Be Saved:

1. Believe the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The word, "gospel" 
means "Good News"   The good news is that, in order to save us,
Jesus died on the cross for our sins, that He was buried, and that
He was raised back to life in the flesh on the third day.
Read 1 Corinthians 15: 1-4


2. Confess Jesus Christ is the Son of God and Lord.  
Read Romans 10:9


3. Be baptized to have your past sins washed away.
This is how you come into a covenant relationship with Christ.
Read Mark 16:14-16,  Matthew 28:18-19,  John 3:3-5 (you must be born again),
Acts 2:29-41, Acts 19: 1-5, and Romans 6: 1-4


4. Repent. Don't live like you used to. Become obedient to Jesus 
and make Him your Lord by loving and forgiving others, and by loving
Jesus and His Father first.
Read Matthew 22: 36-39, Ephesians 2:1-10 and 2 Corinthians 5:17


5. Read the scriptures daily. They are from God. 
Read Psalm 119:105 and 2 Timothy 3:16-17


6. Go to worship services regularly and partake 
of the Lord's Supper.
Read 1 Corinthians 11: 23-26


7. Preach the gospel (good news) about Jesus Christ 
to others to help save them.  Read Mark 16:15




God wants souls to live:
This is what the LORD says:

"...Every living soul belongs to Me, the father as well as the son—
both alike belong to Me. The soul who sins is the one who will die." 
Ezekiel 18:4


"Do I take any pleasure in the death of the wicked?" declares the 
Sovereign LORD. "Rather, am I not pleased when they turn from 
their ways and live?" Ezekiel 18:23


"For, I take no pleasure in the death of anyone." declares the 
Sovereign LORD. "Repent and live!" Ezekiel 18:32
