How To Be Saved

 

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. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved.

 

The Good News About Jesus Christ
God created every human being with a purpose and a destiny, to know Him and to love Him like He loves us. At some point, every one of us have rejected that relationship, and turned to our own ways. Yet God loved us so much that He came, in the form of a man, to bring us back again.

 

You may not know a lot about religion, or have any idea how to start, but God made it simple by sending Jesus Christ to die on the cross, to take away any sin that would keep you from coming to God. Accepting that salvation by faith is as simple as a child reaching out to take his father's hand. If you have never asked Jesus to come into your life, and you recognize that you need God's forgiveness today, why not say this simple prayer and receive the free gift of salvation.

 

Lord, I know that I have sinned, and I am asking you to forgive me today.


Romans 3:22-24
There is no difference, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.


I put my faith in Jesus Christ and receive Your gift of eternal life.


Romans 6:22-23
For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.


I give you my life right now, and ask you to wash me clean;


1 John 1:9
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.


and help me to live each day in obedience to You.


Luke 9:23-24
"If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me. For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for me will save it."


In Jesus' name, Amen.
