The Rules of Salvation

When God created the universe and everything in it, He created the earth in such a way that all animals and plant life would be able to breath and survive. When Adam and Eve were created, they too were provided for with the Garden of Eden that contained every tree that was pleasant to the sight and good for food (Gen. 2:9).

However there was one tree of good and evil, and the rule was that they were not allowed to eat from this tree. Eve broke the rule and Adam and Eve were banished from the garden.

Salvation has its own set of rules. The one rule for salvation is found in John 3:16, which says, Whosoever believes in God's Son will be saved. Likewise, in Rev. 20:15 the rule is that if you do not accept Christ as your personal saviour you will be cast into the Lake of Fire. So, obey the rules and you will have everlasting life in Heaven when Christ returns.
