Romans
1:20-21:
"For since the creation of the world His invisible
attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that
are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are
without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not
glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in
their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened."
We must acknowledge God as the Creator of
everything and accept our humble position in God's creation.
Romans 3:23
“For all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God.” We must all
realize that we are sinners and that we need forgiveness.
We are not worthy of God’s grace.
Romans 5:8
“But God demonstrates His love toward us, in that, while we were still
sinners, Christ died for us.”
Through Jesus, God gave us a way to be saved
from our sins. God showed us His love by giving us the potential
for life through the death of His Son, Jesus Christ.
Romans 6:23
“For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is
eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
If we remain sinners, we will die. However, if
we accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior, and repent of our sins,
we will have eternal life.
Romans 10:9-10
“That if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and
believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you
will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto
righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto
salvation."
Just confess that Jesus Christ is Lord and
believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead and you
will be saved!
Romans 10:13
“For whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved.”
There are no religious formulas or rituals --
Call upon the name of the Lord and you will be saved!
Romans 11:36:
"For of Him and through Him and to Him are all things, to whom be glory
forever. Amen."
Determine in your heart to make Jesus Christ
the Lord of your life today.
Are You Ready to
Accept God’s Gift of Salvation?
If you truly believe the message of the
Bible, and want to accept God’s gift of salvation right now,
it's a matter of repenting of your sins and turning the rest
of your life over to Jesus Christ. This is not a ritual
based on any specific words or prayers, but rather, a
willful decision and a sincere step of faith.
“Father, I know that I have broken your laws and my sins
have separated me from you. I am truly sorry, and now I want
to turn away from my past sinful life toward you. Please
forgive me, and help me avoid sinning again. I believe that
your son, Jesus Christ died for my sins, was resurrected
from the dead, is alive, and hears my prayer. I invite Jesus
to become the Lord of my life, to rule and reign in my heart
from this day forward. Please send your Holy Spirit to help
me obey You, and to do Your will for the rest of my life. In
Jesus' name I pray, Amen.”
"Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of
Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall
receive the gift of the Holy Spirit."
(Acts 2:38)
