How to Get Rich Quick
By Bro David Petersen
How can you have a life that is rich, satisfying and meaningful? The mass media would like to convince you that material wealth, career, parties, sex and entertainment will make you happy. TV, radio and magazines are trying to program your mind in this way. Yet Americans are now more depressed than ever.
Jesus said ‘ I came that they might have life, and have it more abundantly’. John 10:10. The abundant life is a spiritual life. It is not earned by doing good works or by being religious. Instead it is a free gift from God. A gift is received, not earned. ‘For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not as a result of works, so that no one may boast.’ Eph 2:8.
When we receive the free gift of eternal life, God creates a new spirit in us and places the love of Jesus in our hearts. Our new spiritual life becomes full and meaningful. Following Jesus brings hope, joy, love and peace: the true riches of life!
How To Claim Your Free Gift
Jesus has purchased eternal life for you with his own blood and offers this life to you as a free gift. This is a limited time offer though and you must act quickly. This offer expires when you do. ‘And inasmuch as it is appointed for men to die once and after this comes judgment’ Heb 9:27.

The Bible says that we are all sinners. ‘They are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one.’ Psalm 14:3.
Stop trying and start trusting! Confess to God that you are a lost sinner and unable to save yourself. Repent toward God with a genuine sorrow for your sins. Trust in the Lord Jesus Christ and his finished work on the cross as your only hope of going to heaven.
He who believes in the Son has eternal life; but he who does not obey the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him." John 3:36
