What do I need to do?
- ADMIT that God has not been first place in your life and ask Him to forgive your sins.
"If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and cleanse us from every wrong." I John 1:9
-
BELIEVE that Jesus died to pay for your sins and that He rose again on Easter, and is alive today.
"If you confess that Jesus is your Lord, and you believe in your heart
that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved." Romans 10:9
"Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name (Jesus) by which we must be saved." Acts 4:12
-
ACCEPT God's free gift of salvation. Don't try to earn it.
"For it is by grace you are saved, through faith - and this not from
yourselves, it is the gift of God - not by works, so that no one can
boast." Ephesians 2: 8, 9 Our relationship to God is not restored by
anything we do, but on the basis of what Jesus already did for us!
-
INVITE Jesus Christ to come into your life and be the director (Lord) of your life.
"To all who receive Him, He gives the right to become children
of God. All we need to do is to trust Him to save us. All those who
believe this are reborn! not a physical rebirth...but from the will of
God!" John 1:12 - 13
"Jesus says, 'Listen! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in...'". Rev. 3:20
You can take these steps by praying a simple prayer of commitment to God:
"Dear
Jesus, thank you for making me and loving me, even when I've ignored
you and gone my own way. I realize I need you in my life and I'm sorry
for my sins. I ask you to forgive me. Thank you for dying on the cross
for me. Please help me to understand it more. As much as I know how, I
want to follow you from now on. Please come into my life and make me a
new person inside. I accept your gift of salvation. Please help me to
grow now as a Christian. Amen"
"Whoever calls upon the name of the Lord will be saved." Romans 10:13
