What Can I Do To Be Saved?
The Good News is that Jesus' death was payment for our
sin, but not only that. His return
to life from the dead and the new
life He creates in us is the hope
that we too can be with Him in Heaven.
How do you get that for yourself?
Thankfully, it is simple. Romans
10:9 tells us you must say, "Jesus
is Lord" and you must
believe that God raised Him from
the dead. What does it mean to say
Jesus is Lord? You are no longer
the master of your own destiny. Instead,
you have chosen to go where Jesus
leads. Jesus paid for you with His
life. Now your life, from the moment
you wake in the morning until you
go to sleep at night, is His. It
is simple, but not easy. When you
don't do what Jesus says, ask Him to forgive
you. Then ask Him to help you do
better the next time.
Pray this prayer:
"Heavenly Father, I believe you love me. I believe
Jesus died for me and rose from the dead. Today, I confess
Jesus as my Lord and receive the forgiveness of all my
sins. Holy Spirit,
come into my life. Thank You for saving me, in Jesus'
name. -- Amen"
If you've prayed this prayer, we
would like to send you a mini-book that
will help you to grow as a Christian.
Tell us about your
decision for Christ.
(Romans 10:9, 1 John 3:5-6, 1 John
3:9, 1 John 1:9 )
Romans 10:9
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.
1 John 3:5-6
5And you know that He was manifested to take
away our sins, and in Him there is no sin.
6Whoever
abides in Him does not sin. Whoever sins has neither
seen Him nor known Him.
1 John 1:9
If we confess our sins, He is faithful
and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from
all unrighteousness.
