Hi, my name is Eleazar Bendixen
I have been blessed to have been
raised in a Christian home with Godly parents and brothers. It was because
of the daily scripture reading and prayer in our family that I recognized
at the young age of five that I needed to be cleaned from my sin. I
knew that I was a sinner, and had transgressed Gods law, I also had
many unrealistic fears in my life, like most young children have. But
what was I to do about it all?
One night as I was laying in bed I was talking to my older brother (Jeriah)
about it. He told me that because of my sin, I was going to Hell!! (Romans
6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Revelation 20:15 And whosoever was not
found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.)
So after talking to Jeriah about it for a while, he thought I should
talk to my Dad. So I crept out of bed and tiptoed downstairs and asked
my dad about what I needed to do so I wouldn’t have to go to hell
because of my sins. He explained to me how the Bible says that everybody
has sinned, but Jesus died on the cross and took all of the sins of
the world upon himself, then was resurrected from the dead 3 days later,
so that all of mankind could live a life free from sin and death and
live eternally with Him!
Here are some verses about that:
John 3:16-17
16.For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that
whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
17.For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but
that the world through him might be saved.
Acts 2:21 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the
name of the Lord shall be saved.
So that Night I prayed and called
upon the name of the Lord to cleanse me from my sin, and to set me free
from the bondage of guilt and fear, and I was SAVED!! It was a great
night!!
The next morning I still remember have a lot of Joy inside of me, and
the fear that I once had of going down into our dark scary basement
was gone!
God can do this for you!
Ask me how!!
