WHY

Someone gave you a Love God Love All™ wristband because they love you. They love you enough to share their faith with you.

A faith in God - a God that loves you.

No matter who you are. No matter where you live. No matter what you have or haven't done.

God loves you.

The person who gave you this wristband wants you to know this truth. It is an ultimate truth.

Did you know that there is a life after this life? It's an eternal life. And your eternal life will last alot longer than this one... try eternally!

Are you prepared to meet your Creator? Are you ready to meet God and answer for your life?

No one can really "answer" for their life, for none of us is good enough to be rewarded in heaven for all eternity on our own merits. For all of us fall very short of being perfect, and all of us have sinned. Sin leads to death here in this life and in the eternal life to follow. Sins such as pride, arrogance, theft, selfishness, lying, not loving others, putting things before God - they all separate us from a loving God.

But God sent His only son to die a painful and cruel death so that all of us who believe can be forgiven our sins. Because of His death and resurrection, we can be reunited with God here in this life and for all eternity.

So how does someone spend all of eternity with God in paradise?

The Bible says that it is pretty simple. We need to admit that we are sinners and ask God to forgive us.

That's it.

Just say "Dear God, I know that I am a sinner. Please have mercy on me. I do believe that Jesus Christ died for me to pay the price for my sins; and the best that I know how, I trust Jesus now as my Savior and Lord of my life. From this moment on, I will depend on Him for my salvation. Thank you God for your mercy on me."

You have just begun your journey of salvation and you are securely a child of God here in this life and throughout eternity! Congratulations! There is no greater decision in your entire life than to serve God.

Now, find a church near you that preaches the Gospel from the Bible and go there to study and learn more about God and how you need to live your life on earth. We welcome you to join us at Richey Street Baptist Church. Our service times are listed here.

Read the Bible. A good place to start is the chapter (book) called Romans and then continue with Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.

Remember, no matter how you feel now or how you feel tomorrow, stay the course. Commit your ways to the Lord and He will direct your paths.

Now, keep that wristband on and always "Love God and Love All."
