Step 1 Gods Purpose: Peace and Life
The Bible says....
"We have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ." Romans 5:1
"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
"...I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly." John 10:10
Step 2 The Problem: Our Separation
The Bible says....
"For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;" Romans 3:23
"For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Romans 6:23
Our Attempts to Reach God
The Bible says....
"There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death." Proverbs 14:12
"But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hidden his face from you, that he will
not hear." Isaiah 59:2
Step 3 Gods Bridge: The Cross
The Bible says....
"For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;" 1 Timothy 2:5
"For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death
in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit;" 1 Peter 3:18
"But God commendeth his own love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." Romans 5:8
Step 4 Our Response: Receive Christ
"Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: If any man hears my voice, and opens the door, I will come in to him, and will
sup with him, and he with me." Revelation 3:20
"But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:" John 1:12
"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." Romans 10:9
Will you receive Jesus Christ right now?
Here is how you can receive Christ:
- Admit your need. (I am a sinner)
- Be willing to turn from your sins (Repent)
- Believe that Jesus Christ died for you on the Cross and rose from the grave.
- Through prayer, invite Jesus Christ to come in and control your life through the Holy Spirit. (Receive Him as Lord and Savior)
How to Pray:
Dear Lord Jesus,
I know that I am a sinner and need Your forgiveness. I believe that You died for my sins. I want to turn from my sins. I now invite You to come into my heart
and life. I want to trust and follow You as Lord and Savior.
In Jesus' name. Amen.
God's Assurance: His Word
If you prayed this prayer,
The Bible says....
"For whosever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." Romans 10:13
"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man
should boast. Ephesians 2:8-9
The Bible Says.....
"He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. 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 he Son of God." 1 John 5:12-13
