No V.I.P Sinners

By Gerald Bergeron

This book is geared toward those who have this belief that their sin is too big to be forgiven. While they have this desire to know the Savior, their addiction to sin has them enslaved to a prison of their own making. It is designed in a way that is not judgmental, yet straight to the point in their lives. Some may seem amusing, yet it cuts to the core of what the world today faces in their quest for the truth of salvation. For instance, many wonder if Hell is a real place or just a figurative picture of judgment. Many people who I have spoken with do not even believe there is a punishment for those who reject Jesus. That is the core of the whole book to let people know that all are sinners, yet all can be saved by Gods wonderful grace. Sin is sin and there are no V.I.P sinners, who will warrant any special favor in Hell. Death is not the end, there is going to be a next life, and it is up to the sinner to decide where they will spend eternity.

No V.I.P Sinners

By Gerald Bergeron

Introduction:

Do you have this mighty image of yourself being the meanest, rottenest, and even the greatest sinner who ever lived? Do you believe that your sin will never allow you to enter into heaven, if so I have a little bit of news that may pop your bubble? There are no V.I.P sinners living here on this planet, all your competition is the same, ‘All are sinners, and have fallen short of God’s glory.’ This book will lead you to understand that you too can have a new start and a life in heaven that will be eternal. No one has been excluded, and all are received on one simple requirement, ask for the gift. The bible tells us that all who call on the name of the Lord will be saved. I know you may have been told by some that you are going to Hell, but that is your choice not theirs to give. Yes, Hell is a real place and in this book, we will see just how horrible this place can really be to the V.I.P who believes he can withstand the heat. Are you as great a sinner as you believe you are? Do you really believe you and your friends will be partying in Hell? If you do then I have a surprise for you, one that just may give you a different outlook. Heaven…Hell…the choice is yours to choose, make sure your choice is the right choice! Oh, I forgot to mention one very important thing, there are no V.I.Ps in Hell either, everyone there are pretty much alone…

Chapter 1

(VIP Sinner)

The first step in receiving salvation is to know that you are a sinner in need of a Savior. Who me a sinner, I cannot believe you would think that. Many people believe that they are not sinners, because they do not do the horrible things that rank with evil. Like the person who says, I never killed anyone, or cheated on my spouse or any of those evil things. This is because they are measuring sin in severity as though there is this great scale of difference. Like the kid who threw a rock at a factory full of windows, and when caught he replied, I only broke a few windows. The truth of the matter is this, sin is sin, and no amount of sin is bigger than the next. Whatever you do that you know in your spirit is wrong, or what you do not do that you know that you should, is sin. (James 4:17) here the bible says that he who knows to do good, and does not, to him it is sin, you cannot get any simpler than that. Once you sin, you are a transgressor, and though you believe your sin may be a small sin, compared to Gods holiness it is unacceptable and must be dealt with. Still one person will say, Well that individual has an ungodly lifestyle which is wrong, or this person is an evil one and deserves to go to hell. Well you too my friend, are a gossip and a busybody in other peoples affairs and are just as guilty. You see God is the only one who can rightly judge another person’s soul. Therefore, to make the case for everyone needing salvation we must conclude that all are sinners. Yes you are right, even myself. We all need salvation, yet some still believe that they possess a kind of holier than thou, lifestyle. They go to church they try not to break Gods commandments and they even preach to others, pretty, religious huh… well in the next few pages, as will be throughout this book, we will examine what God has to say about sin, and our need of salvation. If you have never given much thought to your eternal salvation, then pull up a chair and get ready for the opening door that just may deliver your soul. My hope though is that you are not like the person who believes that they are a V.I.P sinner, with sin too great for God to deal with. If this is the case, then you really need to read this book. First, we will see what happens to a person when they leave this earth. Yet to know that, we must go to the chapters in the bible that give us a great picture of this mystery. Let me make one more thing clear to all that are reading this book, ‘every person living on this planet will one day physically die.’ That is unless by God’s own hand you are in a moment miraculously taken away to heaven.

1. (Luke 16: 19-31) in this story Jesus tells of a man named Lazarus, and a rich man. The first thing you should know is that both men were living souls, and both were taken to a different place at death. One went to a good place and the other a terrible place of great suffering. Now let us look at the difference, one was a person who had nothing, the other had unlimited wealth. Now in time the poor one died and went to the place of the righteous, so was he righteous? The rich man died also and he was taken to a place of great suffering. The beggar now needed nothing where he was taken. However, the rich man was now in great need and wished only for deliverance. Both now received the payment for their works, and they now were given their place in eternity. However, my intention is merely to show that death will have a new beginning for all who leave this planet.

2. One had suffering, which caused him to plead for mercy and his prison was quite real, while the other was in a place of comfort and peace. They both still had their senses (touch, taste, smell, sight) and even their feelings, and they both still had their memories, as you see by the rich man pleading for his family. He knows he has five brethren and does not wish them to come to this terrible place. He also knew that they too would not heed the warning of the bible or the Prophets that had spoken. Which I believe shows that his household had little need for God or His righteous ways.

3. The third thing you must see in this story is that there was a great gulf fixed between the two places. Now this is also the reason many will never seek to find salvation. There is simply put, a great distance between man’s knowledge of God and his desire to find God. The gulf remains to those who do not come by way of the cross. Yet the chasm has been
