Some of the women at our church are going through a Bible Study book on Heaven. This was one of the exercises in Session two that I wanted to be able to access on my blog. We looked at the following Scriptures to identify the path to the Father. We rephrased each verse using first-person pronouns. It was a good exercise for me.
The Scripture references in order are; Romans 3:23, Romans 6:23, Ephesians 2:8, John 3:18, John 3:16, Romans 5:8, Acts 4:12 and Romans 10:9-10.
I have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. The wages for my sin is death but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus my Lord. By grace I have been saved through faith that is not my own-it is a gift of God. If I believe in Him I am not condemned but if I do not believe in the name of the only Son of God I am condemned already. For God so loved me that He gave his only Son that if I believe in Him I will not perish but have eternal life. God showed his love for me in that while I was still a sinner Christ died for me. There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to me by which I must be saved. If I confess with my mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in my heart that God raised Him from the dead, I will be saved. With my heart I believe and am justified and with my mouth I confess and am saved.
Thank you, LORD!
