TAKE THESE 5 STEPS TO SALVATION
GOD DESIRE THAT WE HAVE AN ABUNDANT LIFE
The Bible declares: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more
abundantly".
God made the ultimate sacrifice that we may live the abundant life by sacrificing His only begotten
Son: "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)
God desires a relationship with us and He gave us the most wonderful gift a Father could have given
by sending His Son to die on the cross for you and me. Jesus paid the ultimate price so that we can
have an abundant and everlasting life. But, many people are still rejecting the gift of God. One may
ask why would anyone not want to accept the gift of eternal life that God offers us.
OUR CHOICES SEPARATE US FROM GOD
God has provided a way for us to receive an abundant and eternal life, but people from beginning of
time have made selfish choices to disobey God. Through their disobedience the choices they made
has put a gap between God and mankind that has continued to cause separation from the Father.
Paul the apostle states in Romans 3:23, "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.
And God says in His Word, "But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and
your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear" ( Isaiah 59:2).
And in Romans 6:23 we read: "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life
through Jesus Christ our Lord."
Without God there is an emptiness in every human and He is the only one that can fill that void in
our lives. We were created to know Him and fellowship with Him. We are nothing without Him.
JESUS IS THE ONLY WAY - THE TRUTH - AND THE LIFE
Jesus Christ, is the only way to God. He paid the penalty for our sin and bridged the gap between
God and mankind. Only Jesus can reconcile us to God the Father. Man can seek after other
gods or solutions but it was Jesus Christ, alone that died on the Cross for our sins and rose out
of the grave in triumph over the grave and eternal death.
John 14:6 we read, "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh
unto the Father, but by me”.
1 Timothy 2:5 we read, " There is only one way provided: "For there is one God, and one mediator
between God and men, the man Christ Jesus".
Romans 5:8 explains: "But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners,
Christ died for us." God Almighty has provided the only way. Jesus Christ, who paid the penalty for our sin and rebellion
against God by dying on the cross, shedding His blood, and rising from the dead to justify and reconcile
you and me back to God.
RECEIVE JESUS AS YOUR SAVIOR AND LORD
Because Christ died for your sins, He has the power to forgive your sins and wash them away. Jesus wants
us to give you the gift of salvation. But He won’t push His way into your life. You have to invite Him into
your heart and ask Him to be your Savior and the Lord of your life.
Revelation 3:20 we read, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the
door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me".
And Romans 10:9 tells us, "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". Are you willing to let go of your burdens and sins?
Are you willing to turn away and repent from your sins?
Are you willing to receive Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior now?
PRAYER OF SALVATION - Don’t wait one minute longer.
Right now, You can pray the most important prayer of your life by simply saying:
Dear Jesus, I am a sinner. I believe You are the Son of God, that You died on the cross and
shed Your blood for my sins. I believe You rose from the dead, ascended on high and I believe
you are coming back again. I’m tired of going my way. I surrender my life and will to You. Right
now, I repent of my sins and I open the door of my heart and accept you as my Lord and Savior.
Thank you for forgiveness and for giving me a new life. Lord, help me to be what You want me to
be and to live each day for You. Amen
If you sincerely prayed that prayer you have been reborn as a member of the family of God. By receiving
Jesus Christ into your heart, God has given you the right to become His forgiven child.
John 1:12 gives us this assurance: "But as many as received him, to them he gave the power to become
the sons of God, even to them who believe on his name".
If you have just received Jesus Christ into your life, we want to rejoice with you. Tell someone about
your decision to live for Christ.
