Salvation
To be saved you need to know only three truths:
1. I am a sinner.
Romans 3:23 - "For all have sinned and
fall short of the glory of God."
Romans 6:23a - "..The wages of sin is death.."
2. Jesus died in my place.
Romans 5:8 - "God demonstrates His own love for us,
in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us!"
2 Corinthians 5:21 - "God made him who had no sin
to be sin for us, so that in him we might become
the righteousness of God."
3. If I ask God to forgive me for rebelling
against Him and I trust in Jesus
as my personal Lord and Savior,
He will save me.
Romans 10:9,10 - "That if you confess with your
mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart
that God raised him from the dead,
you will be saved."
Romans 10:13 - "Whoever will call on the name
of the Lord will be saved."
Romans 6:23b - "..But the gift of God is eternal life
through Jesus Christ our Lord."
Ephesians 1:7 - "In him we have redemption through
his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with
the riches of God's grace"
Revelation 3:20a - Jesus said, "Behold I stand at the door and knock, if anyone hears My
voice and opens the door, I will come in
to him.."
Is Jesus knocking on the door
of your heart today?
You can take these steps to salvation by praying a simple prayer, meant from the bottom of your heart.
Like the following:
God, I know that I am a sinner. Please forgive me of my sin. I no longer want to live my life my own way. I believe the Bible, that Jesus died on the cross to pay for my sins. I believe that He rose from the grave to forgive my sins and to give me eternal life. I surrender my life to You and receive You as the Lord of my life. Thank you, Jesus.
