From the beginning of time, there has been a need for man to have fellowship with God.  Since we are born with a sinful nature, it is vitally important that we prepare for eternity.  There is a void within every person that cries out to be filled.  In the very beginning Satan has tried to convince us that there is a god within each of us.  That is in fact the oldest lie in the world.  The serpent told Adam and Eve, "you shall be as gods".  That same lie is frequently heard today.

The Bible is very clear that there is not a god in each of us.  This life we live is very short compared to eternity.  The Bible says, "Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even just a vapor that appears for a little while then vanishes". (James 4:14)  Therefore it is immensely important to prepare to meet God.  Each one of us has an appointment with death and the day of  judgment.  God is very clear that if we die without Christ, we spend eternity in Hell.  He paid the price though by giving His own Son to die on the cross to redeem us from sin by His blood (Romans 5: 8).  To think how He loved us enough to give His Son should lead us to repentance, keeping in mind that eternity hinges on this one decision. 

 The Bible says, that if you shall confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and shall believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved. For with the heart man believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation (Romans 10:9-10).  If you acknowledge your sin, confess it, and accept Christ with childlike faith to fill that special need in your life, the most amazing thing will happen.  The grace of God, grace that surpasses all understanding, will be more evident than you ever imagined, and those sins of the past will be covered with His blood.
