Good people don't go to heaven.

Forgiven people do.

If you could go to heaven by being a good person, there would be no reason for Jesus to have come to the earth. But Jesus did come to the earth, so there must be more to this story. Find out more below.

Man in sin is separated from God

The man on the left represents every person and our sin. Sin is anything that God tells us not to do. Our sins separate us from God. "All people have sinned and are not good enough for God’s glory." - Romans 3:23


The heavenly picture on the right represents God. God is perfect and without sin. God loves you. God does not want you to perish, but to have everlasting life. But our sins must be removed in order to have eternal life with God.

Christ on the Cross

God loved us so much that He sent his only Son Jesus Christ to earth as a man. Jesus died on the cross to pay for our sins with His blood. He took our sins into His body on the cross so that we could come to God. (1 Peter 2:24, 3:18)


"But Christ died for us while we were still sinners. In this way God shows his great love for us." - Romans 5:8


"For God loved the world so much that he gave his only Son. God gave his Son so that whoever believes in him may not be lost, but have eternal life." - John 3:16

The Tomb

"Joseph took the body and wrapped it in a long sheet of clean linen cloth. He placed it in his own new tomb, which had been carved out of the rock. Then he rolled a great stone across the entrance." - Matthew 27:59


The Jewish Pharisees, who had Jesus killed, were afraid of Him and his promise to rise from the dead. They went to Pontius Pilate, the Roman governor of Jerusalem, and asked for soldiers to guard the tomb. (Matthew 27:62-66)

Christ is Risen

"Suddenly there was a great earthquake! For an angel of the Lord came down from heaven, rolled aside the stone, and sat on it. The guards shook with fear when they saw him, and they fell into a dead faint. Then the angel spoke to the women. “Don’t be afraid!” he said. “I know you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He isn’t here! He is risen from the dead, just as he said would happen." - Matthew 28:2,4-6


Jesus paid the price for our sin and Jesus conquered death. (1 Corinthians 15:3-4)

The cross is the bridge to God

Jesus is the only way we can come to God. "There is salvation in no one else! God has given no other name under heaven by which we must be saved.” - Acts 4:12


Through Jesus we can be forgiven of all our sins and be with God forever. (John 6:40)


Just knowing about these things is not enough! We must choose to put our faith in Jesus, to trust Jesus to save us from sin.

(Romans 5:1-2)

The choices: Heaven and Hell

The penalty of sin is death, but eternal life through Jesus is a free gift from God. (Romans 6:23)


Salvation is a gift from God for the person who has faith in Jesus. (Ephesians 2:8-9) It is a gift we can never earn. We will never be good enough to save ourselves. Jesus is the only way!


What choice will you make? Will you trust in Jesus Christ to be forgiven and have eternal life? Or will you reject Jesus Christ and suffer eternal punishment?

If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and if you believe in your heart that God raised Jesus from death, then you will be saved. We believe with our hearts, and so we are made right with God. And we declare with our mouths to say that we believe, and so we are saved." - Romans 10:9-10
