How Do I Become Saved?

 

 

 

Many people have many needs, but the GREATEST need that all lost people have is to become saved!! In order to have this need met, you must know that you are lost or separated from God.

You must understand that all have sinned.
Romans 3:23 “All have sinned and come short of the glory of God.”

You must realize that sin is against God and must be punished.

Romans 6:23 “For the wages of sin is Death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”

Death means to be eternally separated from God in a lake of fire.

You must believe that God punished His only begotten Son on the cross of Calvary, but made a way of escape through Him.

John 3:16 "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.”

What must I do?

You must hear the gospel concerning Jesus Christ and understand how He became our sacrifice by dying on the cross on behalf of all that would believe on Him. You must know that He was buried and on the third day (72 hours later) was raised from the grave for our justification. Now He sits at the Fathers right hand making intercession for us, that through Him we might have eternal life.

John 5:24 "Verily, Verily, I say unto you, he that heareth My Word and believeth on Him that sent Me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life!”

You must then have Godly sorrow repentance. This means that you must turn to God and change your mind about sin.

2 Cor. 7:10 “Godly sorrow worketh repentance unto salvation. Lest ye repent ye shall all likewise perish!”

You must confess with your mouth that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and that He died for our sins that through Him we might live eternally with Him.

Acts 20:21 "Testifying both to the Jews and also to the Greeks, repentance and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.”

You must call upon the Lord Jesus Christ!

Romans 10:9-13 "Call upon Him and confess Him!”
Put your complete faith and trust in Jesus Christ today and be saved before it is everlasting too late.

2 Corinthians 6:2 "Now is the accepted time: Behold, NOW IS THE DAY OF SALVATION!”

Jesus is coming again... Be ye therefore ready!!
