God's Simple
Plan of Salvation
There are 4
things that
God wants everyone to know:
First,
You must
accept that you are a sinner.
Romans 3:10 "There is none righteous, no not one."
Romans 3:23 "For all have sinned and come short of the glory of
God." We must see ourselves in the light of God's
word. We
are all sinners.
Second,
You must
accept that as a sinner, you owe a penalty.
Romans 6:23 "For the wages of sin is death..." There
is a physical death and a second death (which is the lake of
fire.) Revelation
20:14, 15 "And death and hell were cast into the lake of
fire.
This is the second death. And whosoever was not found written in
the book
of life was cast into the lake of fire." The penalty for sin
is
separation from God for eternity in Hell.
Third,
You must
accept that Jesus Christ has already paid our sin penalty.
Romans 5:8 "But God commendeth His love toward us, in that,
while
we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." Jesus
Christ
shed his blood and died on the cross to pay our sin penalty.
Fourth,
You must
accept the risen Savior, Jesus Christ as your only hope to heaven
No amount of good works, church membership, baptism, etc. can save
you. Ephesians
2:8, 9 "For 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." Jesus paid your penalty on the cross, rose from the
dead,
and then ascended up to heaven where He is right now. He promises
that if
you will call on Him, believing He will save your soul, He will give
you eternal
life right now and write your name in the book of life. Romans
10:9,
10, 13 "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. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness,
and with
the mouth confession is made unto salvation... For whosoever shall call
upon the
name of the Lord shall be saved."
If you have never put your complete faith in Jesus Christ for your
eternal
salvation, why not believe what God's word says and call on Jesus
Christ to save
you right now?
Pray this simple prayer: "Dear Jesus, I know I am a
sinner.
I know I deserve hell. I believe that you died for me to pay the
penalty I
owe. Right now the best I know how I trust you as my Savior,
please save
my soul and forgive me of my sin. Now help me live for you.
Thank
you for saving me. Amen."
If you sincerely trusted Christ as your Savior, please let us rejoice
with you:
God bless you!
