Which church do you think Jesus Christ would attend? q  Catholic q  Lutheran q  Methodist q  Episcopal q  Presbyterian q  Non-denominational q  All of the above q  None of the above q  Other ______________

Obviously, Jesus Christ would attend a church that teaches and believes the same things He does.   Therefore: [] He would attend a church that teaches and believes that EVERYONE IS A SINNER before God, because He said: "For from within, OUT OF THE HEART OF MEN, PROCEED EVIL THOUGHTS, adulteries, fornications, murders, Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lascivious- ness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness: ALL THESE EVIL THINGS COME FROM WITHIN, and defile the man."   Mark 7:21-23 [] Jesus would attend a church that preaches that SINNERS MUST REPENT. That means they must change their mind; admit they are a sinner, forsake their sinful practices, and submit themselves to God, making Him the Lord of their lives.   Jesus said: "I came not to call the righteous, but SINNERS TO REPENTANCE."   Mark 2:17 "Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one SINNER THAT REPENTETH."   Luke 15:10 A repentant sinner must also stop trusting in whatever they are trusting in to get them to Heaven (such as baptism, good deeds, church membership, self-righteousness, etc.).   And, instead, place all their trust in Jesus' death and shed blood as the only payment for their sins.   Jesus Christ said: "The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: REPENT YE, and BELIEVE THE GOSPEL."   Mark 1:15 "I tell you, Nay: but, EXCEPT YE REPENT, ye shall all likewise perish."   Luke 13:3 [] Jesus would attend a church that preaches that unrepentant sinners are cast into a literal Hell, because He said: "The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom

all things that offend, and THEM WHICH DO INIQUITY [i.e. SINNERS]; And shall CAST THEM INTO A FURNACE OF FIRE: there shall be wailing and GNASHING OF TEETH."   Matthew 13:41-42 "But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to CAST INTO HELL; yea, I say unto you, Fear him."   Luke 12:5 [] Jesus would attend a church that preaches that the only way a sinner can avoid Hell is by repenting and placing all their trust in Christ, and Him alone, to save them. Jesus said: "I AM THE WAY, the truth, and the life: NO MAN cometh unto the Father, BUT BY ME."   John 14:6 "I AM THE DOOR: by me if any man enter in, HE SHALL BE SAVED, and shall go in and out, and find pasture."   John 10:9 So obviously, Jesus would NOT attend any church that teaches that the way to Heaven is through baptism, good deeds, self- righteousness, church membership, Mary, or sacra- ments.   To anyone trusting in the things just mentioned, Jesus warned: "I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for IF YE BELIEVE NOT THAT I AM HE, YE SHALL DIE IN YOUR SINS."   John 8:24 Remember, Jesus is THE ONLY DOOR that leads into Heaven.   That is why He said: "Verily, verily, I say unto you, HE THAT ENTERETH NOT BY THE DOOR into the sheepfold [Heaven], BUT CLIMBETH UP SOME OTHER WAY, the same IS A THIEF and a robber."   John 10:1 "If a man abide NOT IN ME, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and CAST THEM INTO THE FIRE, and there are burned."   John 15:6 [] Jesus would attend a church that preaches that when a sinner repents and places all his trust in Christ, and Him alone, to save them, they are born again.   Jesus said: "Except a man be BORN AGAIN, he CANNOT SEE the kingdom of God."   John 3:3
