You shall be saved or...

I laugh every time I pass this sign on my way to my parents' house near Kansas City. The message is intended to be a message of hope, but for me it's just plain confusing. If you read it like I do, it says there are two possible outcomes to accepting Jesus Christ.
  • Outcome 1: Be saved.
  • Outcome 2: Regret it forever.

What's a guy to do? Accept Jesus and risk eternal regret? Sure you could be saved, but what if you get outcome 2?

Thankfully, there are not two possible outcomes to believing. The Bible is clear that outcome 1 is the only possible outcome for those who believe.

"Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved." (Acts 16:31)
