God’s Word, the Bible, tells us there is a God Who made us and Who loves us all very much. Because of His love and mercy, He has made it possible for each and every one of us to enter into a right personal relationship with Himself, and to be assured of going to Heaven after this life. This is possible because God took it upon Himself to solve our sin problem through His Son, Jesus Christ. God’s great salvation provision can be received personally, through faith, by anyone who will simply take it as a gift.
Our sin has separated us from God.
God is perfectly sinless, or holy. 1 Pet. 1:15
We must be sinless to have a right relationship with God and to be with Him in Heaven someday. Psa. 5:4; Rev. 21:27
But we are sinful and cannot change our condition. Ro. 3:10-11, 23; 1 Jn. 1:8
God has determined that death (separation from Himself) is necessary as a just result of our sinfulness. Ro. 6:23
Since sinless perfection is what God requires, our imperfect attempts at trying to earn a right relationship with God - through doing good works, going to church, etc. - cannot help us. Gal. 2:16, 3:10; Ja. 2:10
Do you recognize your sin problem?
His Son, Jesus Christ, died in our place for our sin.
Jesus, Who is sinless, rescued us by taking what we deserve. He gave His life for us, dying on a cross in our place. 2 Cor. 5:21; 1 Pet. 3:18
Three days after dying, Jesus came back to life, proving Who He is and what His death accomplished. 1 Cor. 15:3-5
Jesus’ death in our place is the only solution there is to our sin problem. Jn. 14:6; Ac. 4:12
The forgiveness of sin and right relationship with God we need are offered to us as a gift, by God’s mercy. They can only be received as a gift. Ro. 6:23; Eph. 2:8-9
Do you realize that God provided the only way for your sin problem to be solved, through Jesus Christ?
Place your trust in Jesus Christ as your Savior from sin and the only one Who can bring you into a right relationship with God.
Choosing to receive God’s gift by personally trusting in Jesus Christ as Savior, results in a father-child relationship with God and an assurance of eternal life in Heaven. Eph. 2:8-9; Jn. 1:12; Jn. 3:16, 6:47; 1 Jn. 5:11-13
• Trusting in Jesus Christ (this is what “believe in” actually means) is all any of us can do to
receive the salvation God offers.
• Trusting is more than understanding, intellectually, the correct biblical information about
God’s salvation.
• Trusting is more than becoming intellectually persuaded and acknowledging the truthfulness
of the biblical information about God’s salvation through Christ.
• Trusting is personal reliance; exercising your will by coming to God in a moment of time,
in simple faith, to depend completely and only on His Son, Jesus Christ, as your own Savior.
If you have not already, will you receive Jesus Christ by trusting in Him to save you and bring you to God?
No one is saved by saying a prayer, but by depending on Jesus Christ’s death in his/ her place to put him/ her in a right relationship with God. Why not tell God now that you are trusting in His Son alone, as your Savior? You could say something like this to Him …
If you just prayed this kind of prayer, please e-mail us to let us know. We would love to come along-side you, answer any questions you might have and encourage you in your new life in Christ.
