Got Jesus?

The Bible says there is only one way to Heaven

Jesus said: "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father but by me." (John 14:6)

Good works cannot save you.

"God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it." (Ephesians 2:8-9)

Trust Jesus Christ today! Here's what you must do:

1.  Admit you are a sinner.

•   "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;" (Romans 3:23)
• "Therefore, as sin came into the world through one man, and death as the result of sin, so death spread to all men, [^[a]no one being able to stop it or to escape its power] because all men sinned." (Romans 5:12)
• "If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us." (1 John 1:10)

2.  Be willing to turn from sin (repent).

• Jesus said: "I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish." (Luke 13:5)
• "God overlooked people’s ignorance about these things in earlier times, but now he commands everyone everywhere to repent of their sins and turn to him." (Acts 17:30)

3.  Believe that Jesus Christ died for you, was buried, and rose from the dead.

• "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)
• "But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners. Christ died for us."(Romans 5:8)
• "Because if you acknowledge and confess with your lips that Jesus is Lord and in your heart believe (adhere to, trust in, and rely on the truth) that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved." (Romans 10:9)

4.  Through prayer, invite Jesus into your life to become your personal Saviour.

• "For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." (Romans 10:10)
• "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." (Romans 10:13)

What to pray: Dear God, I am a sinner and need forgiveness. I believe that Jesus Christ shed His precious blood and died for my sin. I am willing to turn from sin. I now invite Christ to come into my heart and life as my personal Saviour.

"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)

"Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new." (2 Corinthians 5:17)

If you have received Jesus Christ as your Saviour, as a Christian you should:

1.  Read your Bible every day to get to know Christ better.

• "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." (2 Timothy 2:15)
• "Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path." (Psalms 119:105)

2.  Talk to God in prayer every day.

• "And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive." (Matthew 21:22)
• "Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done."(Philippians 4:6)

3.  Be baptized, worship, fellowship, and serve with other Christians in a church where Christ is preached and the Bible is the final authority.

• "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:" (Matthew 28:19)
• "Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching." (Hebrews 10:25)
• "All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right." (2 Timothy 3:16)

4.  Tell others about Christ.

• "And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature."(Mark 16:15)
• "For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!"(1 Corinthians 9:16)
• "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth" (Romans 1:16)
