Man is a religious animal. It is so religious that people worshiped the sun, moon, mountains, seas, or even images they made by themselves before knowing the gods. Currently, there are various religions all over the world, and there are people who believe in them. They all believe in something with the common purpose of living a better, happier life. But you must know that only Jesus is the way to salvation. I hope you have great grace when you learn about 'why you must believe in Jesus'.
First, because life is visible.
As the lifespan of human beings is getting longer, we are becoming an aging society. But how you buy is more important than how much you buy. If you believe in Jesus, you will see the purpose of living, the purpose of working, and the way to go. However, there are people who believe in Jesus but do not know this. Jesus called himself the resurrection and the life. If you believe in Jesus, your life will be certain and you will be full of confidence in everything. We must become believers who believe in Jesus and see their own lives, not just church members who come and go in and out of the church.
Second, a change of status takes place.
As we can see from the book of Galatians, if we believe in Jesus, our sins will be forgiven, we will be saved, and we will call God our Father. These days, we often see people in the world at the end of the day, taking the last resort of suicide. And there are many expressions of loneliness in their last words. There is no one in the world to help me. However, if you believe in Jesus, 'alone' changes into 'us'. I will call God my Father. Jesus said that He would be with us to the end of the world. If we believe in Jesus, sinners become righteous, slaves become free, the weak become strong, and children of sin become children of God. May all of you experience the precious joy and emotion that He will deeply intervene in my life and grant me.
Third, because you will enjoy happiness.
In the Book of John 14:27, He says that He gives us peace. To be at peace is to be happy. The word “roost” means a comfortable and comfortable place to live. Where is our home? Where are you most comfortable? The home of those who believe in Jesus is the bosom of Jesus. He is inviting us to a place where we can lay down our heavy burdens and rest. May you receive with gratitude His invitation to give peace that cannot be compared with the peace of the world.
There is happiness in Jesus. There is a high life and there is peace. I hope you can trust him and receive him.
"I receive Jesus. Forgive me for my mistakes and save me. I want to have Jesus as the Lord of my life and live happily. Make me a child of God. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen."
