Receive Jesus Christ as Your Lord & Savior

STEP 1

God loves you and has a plan for you!
The Bible says, “God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, [Jesus Christ], that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life” (John 3:16).
Jesus said, “I came that they may have life and have it abundantly” — a complete life full of purpose (John 10:10).

STEP 2

Here's the problem: man is sinful and separated from God.
We have all done, thought or said bad things, which the Bible calls “sin.” The Bible says, “All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23).
The result of sin is death, spiritual separation from God (Romans 6:23).
The good news is?

STEP 3

God sent His Son to die for your sins!
Jesus died in our place so we could have a relationship with God and be with Him forever.
“God demonstrated His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” (Romans 5:8).
But it didn’t end with His death on the cross. He rose again from the dead on the third day and is alive!
“Christ died for our sins. … He was buried. … He was raised on the third day, according to the Scriptures” (1 Corinthians 15:3-4).
Jesus is the only way to God. Jesus said, “I am The way, and The truth, and The life; no one comes to the Father, but through Me” (John 14:6).

STEP 4

Would you like to receive God’s forgiveness?
We can’t earn salvation; we are saved by God’s grace when we have faith in His Son, Jesus Christ and believe in the sacrifice that He made for us at the Cross. You must understand that you are a sinner and that Christ died for your sins on the cross. It is important to ask Him for forgiveness of your sins. Then turn from your sins—that’s called repentance. Jesus knows you and loves you. What matters to Him is the attitude of your heart, your honesty. We suggest praying the prayer below to accept Christ as your Lord and Savior.

PRAYER

"Dear God, I know I have sinned, and I ask for your forgiveness of all of my sins. I do believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God. I do believe that He died for my sins and that you raised Him to life for me. By faith I want to receive Him as my Lord and Savior from this day forward. Please guide my life and help me to do your will and be obedient to your Word.

I pray this in the name of Jesus.... Amen."

 

Choosing to receive Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior is the most important decision you’ll ever make in your life! In fact God's Word says in John 1:12 "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."

The very moment you commit your life to Christ, the truth of His Word instantly comes to pass in your spirit. Now that you’re born again (John 3:3), there’s a brand-new you in Christ!  Be sure and feed your spirit the Word of God everyday so that you will grow up in Him!  The Bible commands us to be baptized in water after we have believed (Mark 16:15,16).  Find a Pastor or other Christians and they can help you with this.  Also, it's important that you find a Bible-Believing Church that is full of the Holy Spirit and get planted there.  They will provide you with the Love & Fellowship and Prayer & Teaching that will help you in your Journey in Christ! Welcome to the family of God.
