— John 1:1
God and His Word are ONE. To reject His Word is to reject Him. To doubt His Word is to doubt Him. True faith requires complete surrender to every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.
Believing 100% in God's Word
Many claim to believe in God while rejecting parts of His Word. This is impossible! God IS His Word. Jesus IS the Word made flesh.
"And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us" — John 1:14
True believers accept EVERY word of God without question. His Word is truth, life, and the only path to salvation.
"Sanctify them by Your truth. Your word is truth." — John 17:17
Matthew 4:4
"Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God."
2 Timothy 3:16
"All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness."
Isaiah 55:11
"So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, but it shall accomplish what I please."
Those who refuse to believe God's Word are already condemned. Their unbelief is not just ignorance - it is rebellion against the Creator.
"He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned."
"He who believes in the Son has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him."
"That they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness."
"Beware, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in departing from the living God."
Many claim to know God while living in disobedience to His Word. They are liars and hypocrites, deceiving themselves and others. God knows their hearts and will judge them accordingly.
Understanding the Barrier Between Heaven and Earth
It is not poverty, sickness, ignorance, or circumstances that separate you from God. It is SIN and SIN ALONE that creates an impassable gulf between holy God and sinful man.
God is absolutely holy and cannot tolerate sin in His presence. Even one sin makes you completely unfit for heaven. His holiness is like a consuming fire that destroys all unrighteousness.
"For our God is a consuming fire." — Hebrews 12:29
"Your eyes are too pure to look on evil; you cannot tolerate wrongdoing." — Habakkuk 1:13
Sin doesn't just separate you from God temporarily - it brings spiritual death. You are born spiritually dead because of sin, unable to please God or understand spiritual things.
"And you He made alive, who were dead in trespasses and sins." — Ephesians 2:1
"The soul who sins shall die." — Ezekiel 18:20
No amount of good works, religious activity, or moral improvement can bridge the gap that sin has created. You cannot save yourself because you are spiritually dead and completely corrupted by sin.
"For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord."
"For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God."
"For whoever shall keep the whole law, and yet stumble in one point, he is guilty of all."
"Whoever commits sin also commits lawlessness, and sin is lawlessness."
"But the Scripture has confined all under sin, that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe."
"They have all turned aside, They have together become corrupt; There is none who does good, No, not one."
Understanding Our Sinful Nature
In the Garden of Eden, Adam disobeyed God's command and brought sin into the world. Through one man's disobedience, sin entered and death spread to all mankind.
"Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned" — Romans 5:12
Even those who never committed the same sin as Adam are still guilty before God. We are all born with a sinful nature inherited from Adam.
"Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those who had not sinned according to the likeness of Adam's transgression" — Romans 5:14
Scripture declares that ALL have sinned and fall short of God's glory. There are no exceptions - every person who has ever lived (except Jesus) is guilty of sin.
"There is none righteous, no, not one; There is none who understands; There is none who seeks after God. They have all turned aside; They have together become unprofitable; There is none who does good, no, not one."
"For there is not a just man on earth who does good and does not sin."
"If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us."
Because of sin, every person will die physically. Death entered the world through Adam's sin.
More importantly, sin separates us from God forever. Without salvation, sinners face eternal punishment.
Where Will You Spend Eternity?
"And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away." — Revelation 21:4
"In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore." — Psalm 16:11
"But nothing unclean, and no one who practices abomination and lying, shall ever come into it." — Revelation 21:27
"And these will go away into everlasting punishment, but the righteous into eternal life." — Matthew 25:46
"And the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night." — Revelation 14:11
"And besides all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed, so that those who want to pass from here to you cannot." — Luke 16:26
Every person will spend eternity in one of these two places. There is no middle ground, no purgatory, no second chances after death. Your choice in this life determines your eternal destiny.
You don't know when your life will end. Today could be your last opportunity to choose Heaven over Hell.
According to God's Word
Understand your sinful condition
Learn biblical repentance
God's sacrificial system
John the Baptist and Jesus

These five essential steps represent the biblical path to salvation. Now that you understand God's Word and what separates you from Him, you must proceed through each step to experience His saving grace.
"My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also reject you." — Hosea 4:6
To embark on the eternal journey of faith and righteousness?
The Word of God is calling you today. Don't delay your salvation. Every moment you wait is a moment closer to eternity without God.
"How shall we escape if we neglect so great a salvation?" — Hebrews 2:3
"Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation." — 2 Corinthians 6:2
