Salvation Through Jesus Christ

The most important decision anyone will ever make is the decision to receive Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord. John 1:12 says "Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his Name, He gave the right to become children of God."


ABCs of Salvation

Admit your need - "For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God" Romans 3:23

Believe on Christ - "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and though shalt be saved" Acts 16:31

Commit yourself to Christ - "But as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God" John 1:12

A true, God-given faith will lead the new convert to give his/her life to Jesus and recognize that Jesus is not only Savior, but Lord and Master as well. God accepts people where they are, but transforms them, making believers in Him into new creatures, changing old habits of sin, (2 Corinthians 5:16-17, Acts 2:36-39; 3:19-20) and conforming them into the likeness of Jesus Christ (Romans 8:29).

God knows your heart and is not so concerned with your words as He is with the attitude of your heart. The following is a suggested prayer:

"Lord Jesus, I need You. Thank You for dying on the cross for my sins. I open the door of my life and receive You as my Savior and Lord. Thank You for forgiving my sins and giving me eternal life. Take control of the throne of my life. Make me the kind of person You want me to be."
After you have repented and asked God for His forgiveness and to come into your life as your personal Savior, you must confess with your mouth faith in Jesus as God's Son and declare Him to be the Lord and Master (Romans 10:9-10; Philippians 2:11) of your life. This is often done in the context of the "sinner's prayed" as you prayer above. It is also done though water baptism.

Water baptism is a physical picture of a spiritual event. In this holy act, a person identifies figuratively with the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ, as well as declaring himself dead to the "old man" of sin, and alive to God through Jesus Christ (Romans 6:1-14, Colossians 2:9-12, Act 2:38).
