If you would like to recieve Jesus christ as your personal Savior, It's as easy as ABC--
A Admit that you are a sinner, and need a Savior. No
one does right 100% of the time. (Even good people stumble at least at some point in their lives and sin.)
In the Bible it says: in Romans 3:23 "For all have sinned
and fall short of the glory of God."
Isaiah 53:6 "We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of
us has turned to his own way."
Romans 6:23- "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift
of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord."
Our own attempts won't remedy the sin problem. The Bible says...
Proverbs 14:12 "There is a way that seems right to man, but
in the end it leads to death."
Isaiah 59:2 "But your iniquities have separated you from
God: and your sins have hidden His face from you, so that He will not hear."
Good works won't save us, going to church won't save us, having a religious expierence
won't save us, philosophy, and morality won't save us. We needed a perfect Savior from God to save us.
B Believe that Jesus Christ is your Lord and Savior.
Jesus came to save us from our sin. Be willing to turn from your sin.
The Bible says...
1 Timothy 2:5 "...God is on one side and all the people on
the other side, and Christ Jesus, Himself man, is between them to bring them together..."
1 Pet. 3:18a "For christ also has suffered once for sins,
the just for the unjust, that He might bring us to God."
Romans 5:8 "But God demonstrates His own love for us in this:
While we were still sinners, Christ died for us."
God provided the way... we must make the choice.
C Confess- Confess your sin. God drew you
to him; now Come to God in prayer and invite him into your heart and into your life.
Confess your rebellion, your disbelieve, your separation from God..
Revelation 3:20 "Behold I stand at the door and knock. If
anyone hears My voice and opens the door I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with me."
John 1:12 "But as many recieved Him, to them He gave the
right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name."
Romans 10:9 "...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."
John 3:16 "For God so loved the world, that he gave his one
and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."
Pray and invite Christ into your life.
You can pray something like: (It's not the words, it's really the change in your heart.
Just saying words without meaning it or changing anything in your life, doesn't mean anything. But when you really believe
Jesus is your Savior and He is your Lord of your life, you love him and want to live for him, that's when your heart
changes.)
"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 MY Lord and Savior."
In Jesus name, Amen"
Romans 10:13 "For whoever calls upon the name of the Lord
will be saved."
If you sincerely invited Jesus Christ to come into your life, He is with you
right now. The Holy Spirit lives in you when you recieved Jesus as your Savior.
Eph. 2:8-9 "For it is by grace that you have been saved,
through faith- and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God- not by works, so that no one can boast."
D Devote your live to God. He has given you knew life. Eternal life
with him. Sometimes life is not easy, but we're never alone. When we have our knew life in christ, we can be assured God is
always with us. When we recieve Christ, he gives us the Holy Spirit to live in us. He's our counselor and our guide. He will
NEVER leave us!
