BELIEVE

Having heard the gospel, you must believe it- you must believe that it is true.

Sometimes, this may seem hard, but Hebrews 11:1 says: "Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen."
Faith in Jesus Christ as the Son of God and Savior of the world is something that we can be sure of.

What must we believe?
Hebrews 11:6 says: "Now without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him.
We must believe that God exists, and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him.

Why should we believe?
John 3:16 says: "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life."
Also, we read in Romans 5:1: "Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ."
So that we will not perish, and will have eternal life. Also, it is by faith in the Lord Jesus Christ that we may have peace with God.

What will happen if we don't believe?
John 8:24 says: "I said therefore to you, 'You shall die in your sins'; for unless you believe that I am He you shall die in your sins."
If we do not believe, we shall die in our sins.

These scriptures show that belief in the gospel is essential to salvation.
