SALVATION What must I do to be saved? First, you must consider your life and then turn away from everything in it that is contrary to what God wants, which is sin. Sin separates us from God who is pure, holy and righteous. Turning away from sin, is known as repentance, which means to turn 180 degrees from sin and turn to Jesus. Second, you must acknowledge that Jesus Christ died on the cross for forgiveness of our sin. And believe that God has raised Him from the dead. Third, you must ask Him to be Lord and Savior of your life, acknowledging openly and verbally that Jesus is your Lord and Savior. When you open your heart and receive Him, He comes into your heart – your inner person – through the Holy Spirit and you begin a new life in Him. Now, it is a blessing to be able to confess all that God has done for you through Jesus Christ His only begotten Son. John 3:3 (3) Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. John 3:17 (17) For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. Acts 4:12 (12) Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. 2 Peter 3:9 (9) The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. Romans 3:23 (23) For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Romans 10:9-10 (9) 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. (10) For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 1 Please pray this prayer to receive Jesus as your Lord and Savior Father God, Your Word says, "all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God". I am a sinner, I ask you to forgive me of my sins. I repent and close the door to Satan and his devices right now in the name of Jesus Christ. Father your Word also says if I confess with my mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in my heart that You have raised Him from the dead, I shall be saved. I confess and believe Father God that your raised Jesus from the dead, Jesus you are my Lord and Savior of my life. Thank you for forgiving me of my sins. Thank you for saving me. I am saved! I am a new creation. All old things have passed away. Now all things have become new in Jesus name. Amen. Salvation is not “religion” it is a relationship with Jesus Christ. Once a person accepts Jesus into their heart this is the beginning of a relationship with Him and the beginning of the one’s walk with Him yielding abundant life. 2
