- Admit that you have sinned.
The Bible says in Romans 3:23
"For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God"
How many have sinned? ALL have sinned, that includes you!
-
Realize there is a penalty for sin
Romans 6:23 says
"For the wages of sin is death"
This death is called the second death and Revelation 21:8 tells us what
it is and who will go.
"But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and
whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolators, and all liars, shall have their
part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the
second death"
The Second Death is eternal separation from God in a literal HELL. We read
the word murderers, and also liars. A person only has to murder once to be
a murderer, as well as a liar only must lie once to be a liar. The above
verse says ALL LIARS, that just above covers everyone. So is there any
hope for Heaven?
-
Acknowledge that Jesus paid the penalty of sin for you
Romans 5:8 says He did!
"But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners,
Christ died for us"
Jesus was the pure sacrifice who shed His blood to pay, before a holy God, for
your sin and mine.
-
Realize that God wants to give you a gift of Eternal Life in Heaven
Romans 6:23 tells us the GOOD NEWS
"But the gift of God is ETERNAL LIFE through Christ Jesus the Lord"
This gift assures you of an eternal life in Heaven, and it is a gift God never
takes back - it is yours!
-
Believe that Jesus is Lord and ask him to save you from sin and give you
Eternal Life
God promises in Romans 10:9-10
- "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"
Romans 10:13
"For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved"
God promises that He will save anyone from sin and give them eternal
life. Simply call on Jesus and ask Him to forgive you and be your Saviour.
- Call upon the Lord Jesus now in prayer.
Tell Him that you believe that He is the Son of God and you believe that He
died for you, and that you would right now receive Him into your life as your
personal Saviour.
1 John 5:13
"These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the
Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe
on the name of the Son of God"
John 3:36
"He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life; and he that believeth not
the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him"
