How
to be saved
God created you and He loves
you so much. He knew you before you were born and He wants to
have a personal relationship with you now. The only problem
is, God is holy and perfect, but you are not. You are a
sinner. It's not just you - everyone is a sinner.
Because God is holy and perfect, and we aren't, we are separated from
Him. The Bible tells us so.
For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God
Romans 3:23
Because we are human, we sin. Sin became part of our nature
when Adam sinned. There is a price to be paid for sin - death.
Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin;
and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:
Romans 5:12
For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Romans 6:23
Jesus paid that price for us in His death on the cross. God
loved us so much that He sent His Son to die for our sins.
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. John 3:16
But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet
sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8
Salvation is a free gift from God. There is nothing you can
do to earn it.
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it
is the gift of God: Ephesians 2:8
Anyone can accept this free gift from God - salvation through Jesus
Christ. You accept it by believing that Jesus died for your
sins and was resurrected, and asking Him to forgive you of your sins
and come into your life.
...that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt
believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou
shalt be saved. Romans 10:9
For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be
saved. Romans 10:13
You can ask God to save you in your own words (He knows your heart,
even when you have trouble finding the right words) or you can pray
this prayer:
Dear Jesus, I know that I am a sinner and that You died for my
sins. I believe that You arose on the third day for my
victory. Please forgive me for my sins and come into my heart
and life as my personal Savior. I want to trust You and live
my life for You. In Jesus' name, Amen.
