An Invitation To Heaven
By, TERHY JONES
U ********>. » ******
“And I heard a great voice out
of heaven saying. Behold, the <
tabernacle gs God iff. with. men,
and he will dwell with theim,
and they shall be his heople. and
God himself shall be with them,
and be their God. |
And God shall wipe away all
tears from their eyes; and there
shall be no more death; neither
sorrow, nor crying, neither shall
there be any more pain; for the
former things are passed away.”
—Revelation 21:3-4. |
All of us have received invi-!
tations to many different places
such as parties, weddings, grad
uations and numerous other oc
casions. But the greatest invi
tation that could possibly be
given was extended by God
when He gave every living soul
an invitation to enter into that
Celestial City known as Heav
en. The most wpll known ac
count of this invitation is found
in the beloved verse of Scrip
ture John 3:16 . ~ . “God so
loved the world, that He gave
His only begotten Son, that
whosoever believeth in Him
should not perish, but have
everlasting life.” God’s son —
Jesus Christ is the only way
to enter Heaven. He is like a
rope dropped from Heaven, or
a bridge built straight to the
land of no tears and sorrow.
He is not one of many ways or
I even one of two ways, but He
is the only way. God’s invi
j tation says that whosoever be

lieveth on Him would have
ever lasting life. It didn’t say
whosoever believed about Him
but believeth in Him. In other |
words just believeing that there
was a man named Jesus who
was crucified for our sins is not
enough. We must believe in
Him so strongly that we actual
ly trust Him to cleanse oui
souls from every sin. When
we have done this then we will
automatically be “born again,”
our lives will completely change.
Therefore we enter the king
dom of Heaven by trust in
Christ as our personal saviour
from sin and surrendering our
life to Him by striving to fol
low His divine example.
Let us not forget the fact that
this Heaven is a real place and
not a dream. Nq mortal man
could possibly describe the won
der of it. But we should re
member that when we enter
Heaven we escape Hell, we are
in a land of no tears and sor
row, we will be a great family
under God with brotherly love
feigning in every soul, but the
most wonderful thought of all
is that we shall be gathered
around the great throne of God
to live for ever and ever.
Think about it, wouldn’t you
like to accept this invitation to
day? Give Christ your life—
trust Him and your place around
the throne of God will be re
served, your name can be added
to the Lamb’s book of life in
the instant you trust Him.
