YOUR GREATEST NEED
by Jim Corner

Picture this scene: you are standing before God on judgment day and He looks you right in the eye and says, "Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his followers."

I want you to think of the horror that will engulf you. You have just been sentenced to eternity in hell and there is no recourse. There is no court to which you can appeal the sentence. This is the ULTIMATE death sentence.

We read in II Thessalonians 1:6-9 the following: "God is just. He will pay back trouble to those who trouble you and give relief to you who are troubled, and to us as well. This will happen when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven in blazing fire with His powerful angels. He will punish those who do not know God and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. They will be punished with everlasting destruction and shut out from the presence of the Lord and from the majesty of His power." It is so critical that each of us understand that this life is temporary and that eternity awaits.

The good news is that Hell does not have to be my home. The good news is that I can hear the Lord say to me, "Well done, good and faithful servant. Enter into the joys of your Lord." Heaven is not an empty dream but will be reality to all who follow Jesus. The greatest need that I have is that of salvation. I NEED to have Heaven as my home. I NEED to have God as my Father. I NEED to have Jesus as my brother. In short, I NEED salvation.

The question that I must answer is how do I receive salvation? Jesus said in John 14:6, "I am the way, the truth and the life. No man comes to the Father except through me." We read in Acts 4:12 that salvation is only in Jesus. How do you receive this salvation? There are many things that you need to do and you can learn about salvation through World Bible School.

World Bible School is a number of Bible lessons in which you will read directly from the Word of God regarding the Lord's will for your life. The lessons that you will study do not come from the mind of man but rather from the mind of God. We encourage you to begin your studies with World Bible School so you can fulfill your greatest need.
