HOW TO BE SAVED

Here is how you can begin relationship with Jesus Christ.

The good news of Jesus can be summed up in John 3: 16 which says, “For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life”. Below read and see how God loves you and how you can have a personal relationship with Him.
Because of sin in our lives we all stand in need of salvation

John 3:16 “God so loved the world…”

Does God love me? The answer is in the Bible, God’s Word:

“I have loved you with an everlasting love.” — Jeremiah 31:3
1 John 4:16, Jeremiah 29:11, Luke 12:7

“…that He gave His only Son…”

Who is Jesus? What does His life, death and resurrection mean for me?

Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” — John 14:6

“…that whoever believes in Him…”

Can God really change my life?

He asked, “‘What must I do to be saved?’ They replied, ‘Believe in the Lord Jesus and you will be saved.’” — Acts 16:30,31
Jeremiah 32:27, Revelation 3:20, 1 Samuel 10:6

“…should not perish…”

What do I have to do to go to heaven?

God isn’t waiting to judge you. God isn’t waiting to condemn you. He’s waiting to receive you with mercy, with love, with open arms, and forgive all your sins. Will you come to Him? Will you turn from your sin and promise to live for Him?
“If you confess with your mouth, Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” — Romans 10:9, John 1:12

“…but have everlasting life.”

God knows who you are, He loves you, and He wants you to know and love Him.

How do you do that?

You must first admit that, like everyone else, you are a sinner. Being sinners means that we are imperfect and do wrong; we fall short of God’s perfect standard. It also means we are separated from Him and deserve His judgment.

But He loves us! God sent His own Son, Jesus Christ, to die for our sins. He died for your sins. He was punished so you don’t have to be. Not only that; death did not defeat Him. After three days, Jesus rose from the dead, alive again!

Trusting in Jesus’ sacrifice for you is the only way to find forgiveness from God and to begin a relationship with Him. We urge you to take this step of faith today. To do that, simply talk to God – this is called praying – and tell Him you believe in His Son. We suggest a prayer like this:

“Lord Jesus Christ, I am sorry for the things I have done wrong in my life. I ask your forgiveness and now turn from everything which I know is wrong. Thank you for dying on the cross for me to set me free from my sins. Please come into my life and fill me with your Holy Spirit and be with me forever. Thank you Lord Jesus, Amen.”
