Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man comes to the Father but by me." John 14:6
"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world: but that the world through Him might be saved. He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life: but the wrath of God abideth on him." John 3:16,17,36
Man's Problem: Sin
"For all have sinned and come short of the glory or God." Romans 3:23
Consequences: Death
"For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God it eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Romans 6:23
Salvation is NOT by good works, baptism or joining a church.
"By grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God; not of works, lest any man should boast." Ephesians 2:8,9
How to receive Jesus Christ as your Savior.
"...if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart man believes to righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For whoever calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." Romans 10:9,10.13
Are you ready for eternal salvation? If so, make this your prayer.
Prayer:
Heavenly Father, I know that I am a sinner. Please forgive my sins. I believe Jesus died on the cross to pay for my sin. I believe He rose again from the dead and I now open my heart and life to Him. Lord Jesus, I now put my complete trust in You. Amen.
