These are the basic facts of the gospel. If you have never believed in the gospel of Jesus Christ, read this and get saved today!

1) All have sinned.
a. “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;” (Romans 3:23)
b. Not one single person on earth is sinless. The only one was Jesus Christ.

2) The wages of sin is death.
a. “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord” (Romans 6:23)
b. Because God is holy and righteous, He must punish sinners in a literal fire-burning hell for eternity.

3) We must be perfect to go to heaven.
a. “And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of life.” (Revelation 21:27)
b. Only a perfect human being can enter heaven and the only one was Jesus Christ.

4) Man cannot earn his salvation.
a. “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.” (Ephesians 2:8-9)
b. Nothing you do is going to make you perfect, nothing you do can pay for your sins.

5) Christ died for your sins.
a. “For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:” (1 Corinthians 15:3-4)
b. Christ was the only one who could pay for your sins and that’s exactly what He did because he loves you.

6) Only believe to go to heaven.
a. “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life” (John 6:47).
b. To get to heaven, you have to do the only thing you can do: believe that Jesus Christ died for your sins, believe that He rose from the dead, believe in Him to save you.

7) You can know you have eternal life.
a.“These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God” (1 John 5:13).
b. If you believe on the name of the Son of God, Jesus Christ, you will have eternal life and no one can ever take it away from you. God will never leave you or forsake you (Heb 13:5)

Thank you for this video, brother. It is so important to understand the references from the New Testament which are from the Old testament, not read the New Testament with at the limitation of our own biblically asinine intepratations.

You have a lot of biblical knowledge and I hope these videos get more views so that more and more people understand and ponder on the truth. But how can they, if they are so caught up in traditions and doctrines of their own?

We can only pray and hope for the best for them. As always, thank you for your service!
