IF JESUS IS" TEAD, "forget all He did or taught! FORGET that He taught that religion, good works and sincerity are not enough to get us to Heaven. "I say unto thee, ye must be born again." FORGET that He spoke of "the lake of fire," "eternal punishment," of "eternal life." FORGET that He said, "Except ye believe that I am He, ye shall die in your sins." FORGET that He said, "Except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish,". FORGET that He said, "I am the way, the truth and the life; no man cometh unto the Father but by me." FORGET that He said, "I am the resurrection and the life . he that believeth in me shall never die." BUT IF HE IS ALIVE-and He is REMEMBER that He said, "Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away." "The words that I speak unto you, the same shall judge you in that day." REMEMBER that all His miracles demonstrated His diety and the certainty of His words. RE MEMBER THAT He is inescapable and must be reckoned with and received here as lord and savior or met there as judge. REMEMBER that today He declares, "Him that cometh to me, I will in no wise cast out," but that at that time He will say, "Depart from me, I never knew you." "These shall go away into everlasting punishment, but the righteous into life eter nal." REMEMBER that of His coming crucifixion He said, "This is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins." REMEMBER the Scripture says, "Where fore He is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by Him, seeing He ever liveth to make intercession for them." "He became the author of eternal salvation to all them that obey Him." Is Jesus alive or is He dead? What do YOU say? H 11 n "Now IS Christ risen for the dead!" 1 Corinthians 15:20 MEDFORD COMMUNITY CHURCH 227V2 South Central Joseph A.
