| What Must I Do To Be Saved? |
 |
 |
|
|
| Do you want to be saved? Then you must ask yourself these three questions. |
| Do you believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God? |
| Do you realize that you're a sinner and Christ died for your sins? |
| Do you believe that God raised Jesus from the dead? |
|
|
|
|
|
| If you answered "YES" to these 3 questions, then YOU CAN BE SAVED! |
|
|
| ~~It's as simple~~ ~~as that!~~ |
|
|
|
|
| Romans 10:9 says.... "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." |
|
| First you must acknowledge that you are a sinner. |
| "For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God." Romans 3:23 |
| Sin entered into the world in the Garden of Eden. It separated us from God for He cannot dwell where there is sin. "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 The punishment for sin is death. "For the wages of sin is death: but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Romans 6:23 Once sin had contaminated the earth, there was no way to eradicate it except by a blood sacrifice. Jesus became the supreme sacrifice; as an atonement for our sins so that we could be reconciled with the Father. "But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life. And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement." Romans 5:8-11 |
|
| Now, you must repent of you sins. |
| "Repent thee therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out." Acts 3:19 |
| There is a difference between a "head belief" and a "heart belief." When you realize in your heart, what God has sacrificed for you, it will forever change how you feel. "For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." Romans 10:10 Once you come to the knowledge that you have sinned against God-you must repent-which means to be sorry for your sins. When you do that, and you confess your sins to God, He will forgive you. "If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 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 |
| Once you have repented of your sins, God will dwell within you and you in Him. "Hereby know we that we dwell in him, and he in us, because he hath given us of his spirit." 1 John 4:13 "For ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God and they shall be my people." 2 Corinthians 6:16 |
| "For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord, Jesus Christ, Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his spirit in the inner man; That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye being rooted and grounded in love, May be able to comprehend with all the saints, what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God." Ephesians 3:14-19 |
| ~~~Salvation is a gift of God~~~ He offers it freely to whomever will accept it. |
| Once you accept the gift that the Lord is offering, He will transform you and make you new. To know the love of Christ is something that could never be told, it is something that must be experienced to understand. It is a love greater than anything imaginable. There are no words to express the joy that is felt in knowing that God loves you. ~~~~~~~And He does, He truely does!~~~~~~~ |
| Merciful Heavenly Father, I know that you are Lord of all, and I believe in Your Son, Jesus Christ. I believe that he died on the cross for my sins and that He rose again that I might have life, also. I ask You now dear Lord to forgive me of my sins. Cleanse me and make me whole; Come into my heart and dwell within me. I give my life to You. Make me a willing vessel to be used for Your glory. I thank you God for sending Your only Son, Jesus, to die for me. I honor You and praise You for Your mercy and grace. Thank you God for saving my soul. I pray that Your will be done in my life, now and always. In the Holy name of Jesus I pray, Amen |

| Do you feel God knocking at your heart's door... Do you hear Him calling to you to let Him in? Why don't you accept the gift He is offering to you? Give your life to Him and receive eternal life! |
| If you want Him to be Lord of your life, you can repeat this prayer asking Him to come into your heart. |
