(ES) El Camino Biblico al cielo

 Si murieras hoy, ¿estás 100% seguro de que irías al cielo? ¡Puedes saberlo con seguridad!

En primer lugar, la Biblia dice que todos somos pecadores. Todos hemos quebrantado los mandamientos de Dios, todos hemos hecho algo malo en nuestras vidas. El pecado es la transgresión de la ley de Dios. Como está escrito: No hay justo, ni aun uno. Por cuanto todos pecaron, y están destituidos de la gloria de Dios. La Biblia también dice que todos merecemos el infierno por nuestros pecados (por mentir, robar o codiciar, etc.). La paga o castigo que ganamos por nuestros pecados es la muerte. Como todos hemos pecado, todos merecemos morir y pasar la eternidad en el infierno como castigo por nuestros pecados. Pero los cobardes e incrédulos, los abominables y homicidas, los fornicarios y hechiceros, los idólatras y todos los mentirosos tendrán su parte en el lago que arde con fuego y azufre, que es la muerte segunda.

Pero la buena noticia es que Cristo murió por nuestros pecados, y que fue sepultado, y que resucitó al tercer día para pagar por todos nuestros pecados y salvarnos del infierno. Jesús es el Hijo de Dios y también es Dios manifestado en carne. (En quien tenemos redención por su sangre, el perdón de los pecados). Ese es el evangelio: Jesús nació de una virgen, realizó milagros, vivió una vida perfecta y sin pecado y cargó con nuestros pecados en su propio cuerpo en la cruz. Luego fue sepultado, su alma fue al infierno por 3 días y 3 noches, y resucitó para nuestra justificación (es decir, para declararnos justos ante Dios).

La Biblia dice que la salvación es solo por la fe sin obras. Dice: Cree en el Señor Jesucristo, y serás salvo. Al confiar solo en Cristo como Salvador, recibimos el perdón de los pecados y la vida eterna en el momento en que creemos en Él. Porque por gracia sois salvos por medio de la fe, y esto no de vosotros; es el regalo de Dios. No por obras, para que nadie se gloríe. La palabra gracia significa un favor inmerecido. Somos salvos únicamente por la gracia de Dios (por Su favor inmerecido) a través de la fe en Jesucristo. Al poner toda nuestra fe y confianza en la muerte, sepultura y resurrección de Cristo como el pago completo por nuestros pecados y al pedirle que nos salve, somos salvos para siempre sin importar nada porque dependemos únicamente de Su justicia (o perfección). para nuestra salvación. No podemos ser salvos por nuestras propias obras tales como: ser una buena persona, o ir a la iglesia, o ser bautizados, o guardar los mandamientos o alejarse del pecado. Es solo por fe, no por obras. La vida eterna es un regalo gratuito, simplemente pídelo y lo recibirás. Que si confesares con tu boca al Señor Jesús (si le pidieres que te salve) y creyeres en tu corazón que Dios le levantó de los muertos, serás salvo. Porque todo aquel que invocare el nombre del Señor, será salvo.

Si crees lo que te he mostrado hasta ahora, puedes hacer la siguiente oración para pedirle a Jesús que te salve. La oración por sí sola no te salva a menos que también creas en tu corazón. Si crees que eres un pecador, condenado al infierno, y si crees que la salvación es solo a través de la fe en la muerte, sepultura y resurrección de Cristo como el pago total por tus pecados (y que no es a través de tu propia bondad o esfuerzo ), y que nunca podrás perderlo, puedes repetir conmigo: Querido Jesús, sé que soy un pecador, y que merezco ir al infierno. Pero creo que moriste en la cruz y resucitaste para pagar por todos mis pecados. Por favor, sálvame ahora mismo y dame vida eterna. Estoy confiando solo en ti como mi Salvador aparte de mis obras. Gracias por salvarme, Amén! Si eres sincero, has recibido el don de la vida eterna. Ahora, si haces cosas buenas, Dios te bendecirá, y si haces cosas malas, Dios te corregirá, pero tu castigo vendrá solo en esta vida. Ya no puedes ir al infierno porque eres salvo. ¡Felicitaciones! El que cree en el Hijo tiene vida eterna. – Veritybaptist.com

The hardcore gospel

If you were to die today, are you a 100% sure that you’d go to heaven? You can know for sure! First of all the Bible says that we’re all sinners. We’ve all broken God’s commandments, we’ve all done something wrong in our lives. Sin is the transgression of the law. As it is written : there is none righteous, no, not one. For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God. The Bible also says that we all deserve hell because of our sins (for lying, stealing, or coveting, and whatever). For the wages of sin is death. This is not only referring to a physical death, but also to a second death in hell. But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

But the good news is that Christ died for our sins, and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day in order to pay for all of our sins and to save us from hell. Jesus Christ is the Son of God and He is also God manifest in the flesh (In whom we have redemption through His blood, even the forgiveness of sins). That’s the gospel: Jesus was born of a virgin, He performed miracles, He lived a perfect sinless life and He was crucified to bear our sins. Then He was buried, His soul went to hell for 3 days and 3 nights, and He rose again for our justification (that is, to declare us righteous before God the Father). He bore our punishment and paid for our sins in full. For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that He might bring us to God.

Moreover, the Bible says that salvation is by faith alone without works – Acts chapter 16 verse 31 says: Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved. By trusting Christ alone as God and Savior, we receive forgiveness of sins and eternal life the moment we believe on Him. For by grace are ye saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God. Not of works, lest any man should boast. The word grace means an unmerited favor. We are saved solely by God’s grace (by His unmerited favor) through faith in Jesus Christ. By putting all of our faith and trust in the death, burial and resurrection of Christ as the complete payment for our sins and by asking Him to save us, we are saved forever no matter what because we depend on His righteousness (or perfection) alone for our salvation. We cannot be saved (or justified) by our own works such as : being a good person, or going to church, or being baptized, or keeping the commandments or turning away from sin. Salvation is all by faith, not by works. Eternal life is a free gift, simply ask for it and you will receive it. That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus (if you ask Him to save you), and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

If you believe what I’ve shown you so far, you can recite the following prayer in order to ask Jesus to save you. Prayer alone doesn’t save you – you must also believe in your heart. If you admit that you are a sinner, condemned to hell, and if you believe that salvation is only through faith in the death, burial and resurrection of Christ as the complete payment for your sins (and that it’s not through your own works or efforts), and that you can never lose it (either through sinning or by a lack of good works), then you can repeat after me: Dear Jesus, I know I’m a sinner, and I deserve to go to hell. But I believe that you died on the cross and rose again to pay for all of my sins. Save me right now and give me eternal life. I’m trusting in you alone as my Savior - apart from my good works and religion. Thanks for saving me, Amen!’’ If you are sincere, you have received the gift of eternal life. Now, if you do good things after you are saved, God will bless you, and if you do bad things, God will correct you- but you can no longer go to hell because you are saved. Congrats! He that believeth on the Son Hath everlasting life.

The 6 core points of the gospel - The skeleton of the gospel

 1st point - We're all sinners - (everybody is a sinner - we've all lied, stolen or coveted something. Everybody is guilty of breaking God's law. (Romans 3:10, 3:23)

2nd point - We all deserve hell - (one lie is enough to condemn us all to hell forever. And we know that we've all lied, and we've all done worse things than lying, therefore we all deserve hell because of our sins). (Romans 6:23a, Revelation 21:8)

3rd point - Christ died, was buried and rose again from the dead in order to pay for all of our sins and to save us from hell (He bore our punishment and made a complete payment for our sins - past, present and future sins). (Romans 5:8, 1Peter 2:24, 1Corinthians 15:3-4).

4th point - Salvation is by trusting Christ alone as Savior - it's by grace through faith, not by works. Salvation is based solely on the payment that Christ made for our sins. It's not based on our good works or efforts. We cannot earn it. (Ephesians 2:8-9, Romans 4:5-6, 11:6)

5th point - Salvation is eternal - Once you are saved, you are saved forever. You cannot lose salvation for any reason because all of your sins, past, present and future are covered and paid for by the blood of Jesus from the moment that you've trusted Him alone as Savior. Now, if you do good things, God will bless you (rewards, etc.) and if you do bad things, God will correct (or chastise) you but you can no longer go to hell because you are saved. Your punishment will come only in this life time and you can never lose it. It's based on God's promise and not on your own faithfulness.

6th point - We are saved the moment we call upon the name of the Lord (by asking Jesus to save us). Believing in our hearts that Jesus died, was buried and rose again and asking Him to save us go hand in hand. The moment ask Him to save us with believing, we are saved forever. Asking Jesus to save us is an expression of faith
