John 3:16 Ministries Mission Statement
Our Mission
John 3:16 Ministries is dedicated to spreading the message of Jesus' love, hope, and salvation through biblical teachings, Gospel tracts, and Bibles. We aim to spread the Gospel to as many as possible in the Cleveland area.
WE ALL HAVE SINNED
"For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God." Romans 3:23 KJV
The word sin means to miss the mark, or come short of perfection, by disobeying God.
SIN HAS A PENALTY
"For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Romans 6:23 KJV
The payment for your sin is death and separation from God in a place the Bible calls Hell.
JESUS PAID THE PENALTY!
"But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." Romans 5:8 KJV
God proved his love for you by sending his Son, Jesus Christ, to die on the cross for your sin. He died in your place, was buried and three days later, arose from the dead.
BELIEVE ON JESUS TODAY!!
"That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved." Romans 10:9 KJV
To believe on Jesus Christ as Savior means to have faith that he died for you, paid the price for your sin, and is the only way to Heaven. You can express your belief on Jesus through prayer.
PRAY SOMETHING LIKE THIS:
"Dear Jesus. I know that I am a sinner and that I deserve hell. I believe you died on the cross, paid the penalty for my sin, and arose from the dead three days later. I am placing my faith and trust in you alone to forgive my sin and give me the free gift of eternal life. Thank you for saving me. In Jesus' name, AMEN
IF YOU PRAYED THE ABOVE PRAYER, WHAT ARE THE NEXT STEPS?
- Obtain a King James Version Bible (commonly referred as the "Authorized Version". You can read the KJV online for free, or request by email a copy. john316ministries_email@proton.me
- Find a local church that preaches the gospel, and uses the King James Version Bible. This is the time tested, most accurate Bible, originally from 1611. Never compromise, the KJV is the best and is not copywrited for profit, and was intended to be distributed worldwide. The KJV is the best selling book of all time for a good reason. Get the best. The other versions are counterfeit bibles.
- Get baptized, by immersion (submerged in water). This is the biblical baptism that John the Baptist performed and Jesus was baptized this way. Also, it is one way to publically show you have accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, and you've confessed your sins, and are "born again". Everyone is born physically, but when you are "saved", or "born again", that means you now have a spiritual birth! You cannot go to heaven without being born "of the spirit". Get baptized, and tell others about your new birth! You have all your sins, no matter how bad, forgiven by Jesus, and you will have a place in heaven! Tell others about how to be forgiven and how to be 100% sure you will go to heaven when you die. Jesus suffered on the cross to pay for your sins, and he overcame death by being resurrected from the dead. There are many eyewitnesses that saw Jesus after his resurrection. You can be assured that the Bible is correct and Jesus is alive today. God bless you, and spread the gospel to others!!!
