How to accept Salvation
EVERY PERSON IS SINFUL AND SEPARATED FROM GOD
"For ALL have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." Romans 3:23
SIN WILL BRING ETERNAL PUNISHMENT
"For the wages of sin is death." Romans
6:23
EVERY PERSON IS GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO GET RIGHT WITH GOD
"For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son (Jesus Christ),
that whoever believes in Him (Jesus Christ) shall not perish (die and go to hell) but have eternal life." John 3:16
THERE IS ONLY ONE WAY TO REACH GOD.
Jesus said to him, "I am the way and the truth and the life, no one comes to the
Father (God) except through me." John 14:6
JESUS PROVED HE WAS GOD'S SON (also see
jesusprophecies)
"Christ died for our sins...Jesus was buried...He was raised on the third day, according to the scriptures."
1 Corinthians 15:3-6
WE ARE CALLED TO RECEIVE JESUS CHRIST AND BECOME HIS CHILDREN
"But as many as received Him (Jesus Christ), to them He gave the right to
become children of God, even to those who believe in His name." John 1:12
YOU CAN'T EARN HEAVEN OR SALVATION
"For by (His) grace you have been saved, through
faith; and that not of yourselves, it
is the gift of God, not as a result of works, that no one should boast."
Ephesians 2:8-9
JUST INVITE JESUS CHRIST INTO YOUR LIFE
"Behold, I (Jesus Christ) stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears My voice
and opens the door, I will come in to him..." Revelation 3:20
CONFESS YOUR SINS AND START YOUR LIFE AS A CHRISTIAN
"If we
confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse
us from all unrighteousness." 1 John 1:9
You can pray a prayer like this one:
"Jesus, I confess to you that I am a sinner and have sinned against your will.
Please forgive me of my sins. I now turn my life over to you and accept You as
my God and Lord and Savior. Come into me and to take control of my life in every
area. I need You and give you permission to be my Lord and Master
forever.
Amen."
