ABC's OF SALVATION
|
Ø ADMIT to God that you are a sinner. Each of us has a problem the Bible calls sin. Sin is a refusal to acknowledge God’s authority over our lives. Everyone who does not live a life of perfect obedience to the Lord is guilty of sin. Since none of us is perfect, all of us are sinners. [For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God] (Romans 3:23). We all need salvation.
Ø The result of sin is spiritual death (Romans 6:23). Spiritual death means eternal separation from God. By God’s perfect standard we are guilty of sin and therefore subject to the punishment for sin, which is separation from God and a devil’s hell. Admitting that you are a sinner and separated from God is the first step of repentance, which is turning from sin and self and turning toward God.
Ø BELIEVE in Jesus Christ alone as God’s Son and receive Jesus’ free gift of forgiveness from sin. Although we have done nothing to deserve His love and salvation. God wants to save us. In the death of Jesus on the cross, God provided salvation for all who would repent of their sins and believe in Jesus. [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).
Ø CONFESS your faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord (Romans 10:9-10). After you have received Jesus Christ into your life, share your commitment to Christ with other Christians. Join a Bible believing Church, and ask for baptism as a public expression of your faith.
A FINAL WORD
Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me" (John 14:6).
Note! Jesus did not say He was "a way" among many ways. Nor did Jesus say that He was "one source of truth" among other sources of truth.
Dear friend; salvation is not possible for anyone that believes and follows a lie; no matter how sincere they might be. Please be aware that salvation is not found in religious rituals, good works, or in the false belief systems of this world. Salvation is found only in Jesus Christ and in Him alone. Jesus said: "I am THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE, and no one comes to the Father except through Me. Receive the true and living God... Jesus Christ, and His salvation today, it is the only salvation that brings eternal life. It is my prayer that if you do not know Jesus as Lord and Savior. That the Sovereign God of the universe, Will open up your heart to the Gospel of Christ, So that you might be saved.
