Lost In Space?

Are You Lost In Space?

Today, more than ever man looks for answers to the questions that have plagued him since the beginning of time. He seeks to explore the deepest recesses of space, searching for signs of life in different galaxies by the use of spacecraft and sophisticated radio telescopes. He ponders the mysteries of crop circles, pyramids, UFO's , teleportation, comets, time travel, subliminal messaging, reincarnation, astral projection and the like. In his search he consults mediums, psychics, conjurers, witches, tarot readers, palmists, astrologers, clairvoyants, and worse.

USING THE ABOVE MEANS MAN HAS REJECTED THE ONE, TRUE ANSWER TO ALL OF HIS QUESTIONS:

JESUS CHRIST

Q - What does the Bible say about things like mystics, mediums, psychics, conjurers, witches, tarot readers, palmists, astrologers, clairvoyants, etc.?

A - REPENT OF IT NOW! - "When thou art come into the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not learn to do after the abominations of those nations. There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch, Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer. For all that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD: and because of these abominations the LORD thy God doth drive them out from before thee." (Deuteronomy 18:9-12)

Q - What happens if I don't turn from my sin, repent and accept Jesus?

A - YOU WILL BURN ETERNALLY IN HELL.

"For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God"-Romans 3:23

"And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire." - (Revelation 20:15)

Q - I want to change, but how can I?

A - You must first realize that YOU are lost. (You are lost if you have not trusted in the Lord Jesus Christ as your personal Savior (John 3:18). You must then repent toward God. To repent means "to turn". Turn with your heart to God. Turn from unbelief in Jesus to belief (placing your trust) in Jesus. You must believe that Jesus died for YOUR sins, and died as YOUR substitute. Your faith (trust) must be in Jesus Christ. You must ask God in prayer, in your own words, from your heart to forgive you and to save you. This must be a genuine and sincere prayer, not just the act of repeating some words provided for you. "And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved," (Acts 16:30,31).

TURNTo God (With your heart; with faith and sorrow for your sins and unbelief).

TRUSTIn Jesus Christ (With your heart; Trusting Him with your eternal soul; Wanting and willing to receive Him as your own personal Savior.)

TALKTo God (From your heart in prayer; in your own words; express your sorrow for sins, and desire for forgiveness, and for Him to save your soul.)

Do this NOW, while you have the time and the opportunity. "...Behold, now is the accepted time; behold now is the day of salvation." (II Corinthians 6:2)
