Can you send me some info via regular mail? via Email? - We sure can! CBA publishes a printed information brochure which is a condensed version of the information available on this website.

How can we come to God and have assurance that we are going to heaven?

  • First, we admit that despite any good deeds we may have done, or any special talents we might possess, we have all sinned. "All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." Romans 3:23

  • Second, we understand the consequences of our sin are death and eternal separation form God. For the wages of sin is death: Romans 6:23a

  • Third, we realize God's provision for us is Jesus Christ. "God demonstrates His own Love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us." Romans 5:8

  • Fourth, we accept Jesus into our lives to be our personal Savior. "Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life." John 3:16

You can use a prayer like this:
Dear God, I admit that I have sinned and ask that You forgive me of my sin. Jesus, I believe that You paid the penalty for all my sins when You died on the cross and that You rose again to give me eternal life. I ask You to come into my life and be my Savior. Amen.
