@Cactus - I can only speak for myself as I have already posted previously, but you already know the truth.
You posted it here:
...if my 'not believeing' now is reason to send me to hell
Did Jesus die on the cross for our sins to give us the chance to "
ASK" forgiveness and enter the gates of Heaven? YES! Anyone can ask at anytime. You do not have to attend a church to do it. You can do it right now, it's simple.
You can't go to Heaven by your works. Just doing good will not cut it, we were all born sinners. I try very hard to not use words like Lucky, which I feel is just one of many words used today to cover up the Lord's blessings and fails to give glory to GOD for the GREAT thinks he does for us every day. I thank the Lord everyday for my life, his forgiveness, understanding, my family, and the friends I have. If I lost everything, I know I will not loose my SALVATION! I have been promised that in the bible and if I don't believe and trust GOD's word 110% than I really don't believe. I would try very hard to continue to thank GOD and be a good severnt to him as Job was.
