Men still
cry, "What must I do to be saved?" The Bible provides a clear answer. 1. ACKNOWLEDGE: "For all
have sinned and come short of the glory of God" (Romans 3:23). "God
be merciful to me a sinner" (Luke 18:13).
2. REPENT: "Except
ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish" (Luke 13:3). "Repent ye
therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out" (Acts 3:19).
3. CONFESS: "If
we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us
from all unrighteousness" (1 John 1:9). "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" (Romans 10:9).
4. FORSAKE: "Let
the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts; and let him return unto
the Lord...for he will abundantly pardon" (Isaiah 55:7).
5. BELIEVE: "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)."He
that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be
damned" (Mark 16:16).
6. RECEIVE: "He
came unto his own, and his own received him not. 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 1:11,12).
Why not make your eternal decision
now and pray the following prayer?
"Lord Jesus, I believe You
died for my sins. I repent of my sins and ask for Your forgiveness. I am willing to turn
from my way and follow Your way. I receive You now as my personal Saviour and Lord and
invite You to manage my life from this day forward. Amen." |
