How do I receive Salvation?
If you are visiting our website and you do not yet know Jesus Christ as your Savior and Lord of your life, please read the following message carefully because it is very good news....
Yes, there is indeed a God, and He is very real. In a matter of fact, He is ALIVE, even still to this day! The Bible says that all things created and nature declares His very existence. He created this world and everything in it, which includes you.
The Bible, also known as the Word of God, is very clear that though all people are the creation of God, not all are His children. The Bible says that the way that you become a child of God is if your life pleases Him. God has made a way for us to know how to live our lives and what we must do to please Him. We have His word, the Bible, to guide us through this.
Many people through-out the world live their entire lives claiming that they believe that there is, indeed, a God, but they do not live their lives to please Him. The Bible says that even the demons believe that there is a God and it makes them tremble (James 2:19). It is not enough for us to simply believe that there is a God. We must do more than simply believe. We must also live our lives to please Him (1 Corinthians 10:31).
The Bible says that all men are sinners and are in need of a Saviour (Romans 3:23, 1 John 4:14). God sent His son Jesus Christ to be this Redeemer. Jesus shed His blood and died on a cross many years ago so that we may be saved.
Saved from what? Jesus shed His blood so that we may be saved from the judgment that God will bring against sin, wickedness and anything else that does not please Him. Jesus Christ died so that you, believing in the sacrifice that He made, may be forgiven of a life of sin against God.
The Bible says that if you do not have faith, you cannot please God (Hebrews 11:6). In order to receive this forgiveness of your sins you must believe. That is what faith is about. Believing.
The Bible also says in Romans 10:9 that if you believe in your heart that Jesus died for your sins and that He rose from the dead and if you confess this with your mouth, you will be saved.
This instruction in God's Word requires that you believe. This requires that you put aside all of your doubts, fears, pride, questions, unbelief, and have faith that this is, indeed, God's plan.
This is His creation, His plan of Salvation, and these are His rules to receive this Salvation and forgiveness of sins.
The Bible says in John 3:16, "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". This is what God has already done for us, and this is what God offers us as forgiveness, what we must believe and receive. Not only must we believe, but we must please Him with faith in His sacrifice (Jesus). He so loved us that He so gave His very life.
If you do not receive this redemption, there will be, with no exceptions, a consequence for your unforgiven sin. God is just. There is justice for he who believes in Jesus and this redemption, an eternity with God for your soul in Heaven. Eternal Life with God (John 3:14-17, John 10:27-30, John 17:1-3, Romans 2:3-7, Romans 6:23).
Again, God is just. There is also justice for he who does not believe, an eternity separate from God, a place of torment known as Hell. Your soul will exist forever in regret and the torment of this Lake of Fire where there will be no let up of weeping and gnashing of teeth, continually living for all of eternity, in the horrors of this place (Matthew 13:49-50, Luke 13:27-28, Revelation 20:12-15, 21:8).
Please don't risk your eternal destiny. Not acting now by receiving Jesus Christ as your personal Savior is like playing Russian Roulette with your soul for all of eternity.
Please don't question whether or not God really exists. He does, and He is the FINAL judge of all life. In a matter of fact, don't question God at all, period. Only believe.
Please take the time right now and pray to God. Ask Him to forgive your sins. Once your sins are forgiven, they are as far as the east is from the west, and He will remember them no more (Psalm 103:12, Jeremiah 31:34, Isaiah 43:25). This means that you are given a second chance, that you now have a 'clean slate' (2 Corinthians 5:17).
Talk to Jesus. He hears your prayers (Psalm 6:9). He knows you inside and out. He knows you better than you know yourself. He knows your every thought, He knows the number of hairs on your head, and He even knew you before you were formed in your mother's womb. (Psalm 139:1-3, Luke 12:7, Jeremiah 1:5)
He loves you more than you could ever imagine. He has been patiently waiting for you to come to Him for all of your life. He is longing for you to come to Him. Go ahead, talk to Him! What have you got to lose? I encourage you to tell Him that you are grateful for the sacrifice that Jesus has made for you!
Go ahead, accept with your heart, mouth and life the love that He has for you! You won't regret it! I encourage you to live your life to please Him, and only Him, for He is your Creator!
Go ahead and fall IN LOVE with Him! He is already IN LOVE with you!
Prayer of Salvation:
If you would like to receive Jesus Christ as your Savior and Lord of your life, please pray the following prayer out loud:
"Father God, I come before you as a sinner, and I acknowledge my sin to You. Jesus, I need You! I believe in my heart that You are the Son of God and that God raised You from the dead! Please be my Savior! Please forgive me of my sins and cleanse me from them! Please fill me now with Your Holy Spirit, and guide me in the way that You would like me to go! Please help me live a life that is pleasing to You! I thank You, Jesus, for forgiving me of my sins and for being my Savior! In Jesus' Name I pray, Amen!"
Welcome to the Family of God!!!
Suggestions for the new believer:
* Get a good Bible. I highly recommend the King James Version. I also recommend getting an Amplified Bible to help with those verses that you may have problems understanding clearly.
* Find a Spirit-filled church in your area that preaches the Bible, only the Bible, and not man-made doctrines.
* Fellowship with those Church members. Go there and grow in getting to know God as your Savior, Jesus.
* Get baptized and get full of the Holy Ghost and the FIRE of God! Walk in your new-found POWER and AUTHORITY as a believer in Christ! Don't be afraid to use it!
* Tell others about how Jesus forgave your sins and gave you a fresh start.
* Talk to God ALOT and read His Word, the Bible. Meditate on His Word as much as possible.
