SALVATION:HOW TO GET SAVED
How do you obtain salvation?
You have to accept the Lord Jesus Christ as your personal saviour.
Why do you need to do that?
Romans 6:23 say's this .For the wages of sin is death;but the gift of God
is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Romans 3:23 says this.For all have sinned,and come short of the glory of God.
Now lets go back to the begining.
Romans 5:12 says this. Wherefore,as by one man sin entered into the world,and
death by sin;and so death passed upon all men,for that all have sinned.
What does this meen?
All have sinned,you,me,your mother,your father,Billy Grahm,the pope,Mother Terisa
it says all have sinned and all meens all,anyone who says they never sinned is a
lier.We all fall short of Gods glory each and every one of us you are either a
saved sinner or a lost sinner.The difference is the saved sinner is forgiven of all
there past sins as soon as he or she accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as there personal
saviour.That dosn't meen we don't sin we are still human we dont loose our salvation
every time we sin but we do loose blessings here on earth and rewards in heaven and
when we confess those sins to God and stop doing them he starts blessing us again.
The wages of sin is death we are talking two kinds of death here,Adam and Eve were
created in the image of God and were sinless in the begining but Satan came to Eve in
the form af a serpent and twisted Gods word he said; yea hath God said?and he tricked
Eve into sinning and Adam followed soon after.So because of this we have a physical
death and also a spiritual death,we are born dead to God and alive to sin in other
words we have a spiritual seperation from God.
So God had to provide a sacrifice he sent his son Jesus to earth to be born of a virgin,
he lived on this earth for 33 years,then he was spit on slaped,beat whith a whip till his
whole body was covered in blood and bruises,he was mocked,laughed at,they put a crown of
thorns on his head ,they nailed his hands and feet to a wooden cross then lifted it up and
dropped it in the hole.He did all this willingly for you and I.There was a thief on each
side of him one said mockingly "if though be the Christ save thyself and us"and the other
one said"Lord remember me when though commest into thy kingdom"and Jesus said to him "Verily
I say unto thee,Today shalt thou be with me in paradise."And before that he looked out over
crowd of people some crying,mosty laughing,mocking an cursing him and he said"Father forgive
them;for they know not what they do."
He willingly did this for you and I all you have to do is ask his forgiveness and invite him
into your life.He is waiting with open arms,his love is unconditional,he will accept you just
the way you are,dont wory about changing first accept him and let the Holy Spirit help you
make the changes you need to make.
Romans 14:11 and 12 says this, For it is written,As I live,saeth the Lord,every knee shall bow to me,
and every tongue shall confess to God.Philipians 2:9-11 says this,Wherefor God also hath highly
exalted him,and given him a name which is above every name:That at the name of Jesus every knee
shall bow,of things in heaven,and things in earth,and things under the earth;And that every
tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord,to the glory of God the father.Every one is
going to bow either here on earth or after they die,it is better to do it here and you dont
know how lang you have,you could live another 75 years or 5 minutes you dont know so please
dont wait.
John 3:16-17 sais this,For God so loved the world,that he gave his only begoten Son,that
whosoever believeth on him should not perish,but have everlasting life.For God sent not his son
into the world to condemn the world;but that the world through him might be saved.
Romans 5:8 says this.But God commendeth his love toward us that,while we were yet sinners,
Christ died for us.
Romans 10:13 says this,For whosever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
2 Corinthians 6:2 says this,Behold,now is the accepted time:behold now is the day of salvation.
Pray this prayer sincerely
Lord Jesus,be merciful to me a sinner forgive me of my sins.I do now recieve you as my personal
saviour and Lord of my life.
