What must I do to be saved?
You're not here by accident. Jesus loves you, and He wants you to
have a personal relationship with Him. There is just one thing that
separates you from God. That one thing is sin. People tend to divide
themselves into groups - good people and bad people. But God says
that every person that has ever lived is a sinner, and any sin separates
us from God. That includes you and me.
"For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God."
Romans 3:23
According to man's rules, people should be punished or rewarded
according to how good they are, and it might be hard for you to
understand how Jesus could love you, when other people don't
seem to. But I have great news for you! Jesus DOES love you!
More than you can ever imagine! And there's nothing you can
do to make him stop! Are you thinking that you should make
things right in your life before you come to Jesus? Many people
feel that way, but that's not what God says!
"God demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we were
still sinners, Christ died for us." Romans 5:8
For you to come to God you have to get rid of your sin problem.
But God says that you can't make yourself right with God by
being a better person. God wants to save you
JUST BECAUSE HE LOVES YOU!
"He saved us, not because of righteous things we had done,
but because of His mercy." Titus 3:5
It's God's grace that allows you to come to Him -
not your efforts to "clean up your life" or work your way
to Heaven. You can't earn it. It's a free gift.
"For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith -
and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God -
not by works, so that no one can boast." Ephesians 2:8-9
For you to come to God, your sin must be paid for.
God's gift to you is His son, Jesus, who paid the debt for you.
"For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is
eternal life in Jesus Christ our Lord." Romans 6:23
Jesus paid the price for your sin and mine by giving His life
on Calvary's cross. God brought Jesus back from the dead
and paved the way for you to have a personal relationship
with Him through Jesus. All that's left for you to do is to
accept the gift that Jesus is holding out for you right now.
"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. For it is with your heart that you believe
and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess
and are saved." Romans 10:9-10
God says that if you believe in His son, Jesus, you can live
forever with Him in glory.
"For God so loved the world that He gave his one and only
Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish,
but have eternal life." John 3:16
Are you ready to accept the gift of eternal life that Jesus is
offering you right now? If it is your sincere desire to ask
Jesus to come into your heart as your personal Lord and
Savior, then talk to God from your heart through
the Sinner's Prayer:
Dear Lord,
I know that I'm a sinner. I believe Jesus was my
substitute when he died on the cross.
I believe His shed blood, death, burial, and
resurrection were for me. I now receive Him as my Saviour.
I thank you for the forgiveness of my sins, the gift of
salvation and everlasting life. Turning from my way of
life to His. Give me grace and strength to live for thee.
In Jesus name
Amen
If you prayed the sinner's prayer and meant it, then you are
now a child of God. Now, join a good Bible believing church,
follow the Lord in scriptural baptism.
Study the Holy Bible. Make a habit of reading it daily
and talking to the Lord in prayer.
Let Him guide you in all that you do and may God
richly bless you.
