Salvation is the
free gift of God through Jesus Christ. Eternal life, deliverance
from death and condemnation, cannot be purchased for any earthly sum, but it
is yours for the taking, completely free of any charge. This is because
Jesus Christ has already paid for you, for all of us, by His death on the
cross in our place. By His sacrifice, He ransomed us, paying the price for
all the sins we would ever commit, and thus opening up the door to paradise.
If you would like to drink the water of life, it is available to you, right
now, and without any cost.
What Must I Do To Be Saved?
1. Recognize the fact that you are lost. “For all have sinned and come short of
the glory of God.” Romans 3:23
2. Recognize that Jesus died as your substitute. “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
3. Repent toward God, with genuine sorrow for the fact that you are a sinner.
“Except ye repent, ye shall all … perish.” Luke 13:3
4. Ask God to save you, to forgive your sin for Jesus’ sake, and trust
(believe) wholeheartedly that he will. “The word is nigh thee, even in thy
mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; 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. For
with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth
confession is made unto salvation… For whosoever shall call upon the name of
the Lord shall be saved.” Romans 10:8-10, 13
5. When should you be saved? “Behold now is the accepted time; behold, now is
the day of salvation.” 2 Corinthians 6:2
The testimony of scripture is abundantly clear. All that is needed is for you
to accept the gracious offer of a loving God, who has already done
everything for you. What more could He do than to send His precious Son to
die in your place, so that you could live forever with Him? All that is
needed is for you to accept, to place your faith in the Lord Jesus Christ,
to believe in Him, and eternal life will be yours.
