There's no reason to fear ...

"I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world." - John 16:33 NIV

"Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid." - John 14:27 NLT

"Then you will experience God's peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus." - Philippians 4:7 NIV

       If you've never made a commitment to Christ for the forgiveness of sins, then you have every reason to be afraid. Christianity isn't a restrictive "religion" where you have no fun. As a matter of fact, fun is irrelevant regarding eternal things. Fun is defined on an individual basis based on the persons likes and dislikes. A believer in Christ does what he does not because he has to, but because he wants to. True Christianity is a "relationship" with Almighty God.
       Interestingly enough, people will try anything and everything to find peace, contentment and fulfillment. They won't find it though, because it can only be found in God. It's an individual choice that everyone must make in their life. If you choose to believe that God isn't real you better be right, because if you're wrong you will have to live knowing that for all eternity.  That's not a threat nor am I trying to scare you into converting. However, I would be remiss if I didn't say something to you about the forgiveness that you need and how you can get it absolutely free.  If I kept silent it would be like walking past a burning building and saying nothing all the while knowing there were people asleep in their beds.  Reach out to Jesus while He may be found.  rlkeller
