God’s Simple Plan of Salvation

 

You are a sinner.  Therefore, unless you believe on Jesus Who died in your place, you will spend eternity in Hell.  If you believe on Him as your crucified, buried, and risen Savior, you receive forgiveness for all of your sins and His gift of eternal life.

 “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.”  (Romans 10:13).

Whosoever includes you.  Shall be saved means not maybe, nor can, but shall be saved.

Just take God at His word and claim His salvation by faith.  Believe, and you will be saved.  No church, no lodge, no good works can save you. Remember, God does the saving.  All of it!

You say, “Surely it cannot be that simple.”  Yes, that simple!  It is scriptural.  It is God’s plan.  Believe on Jesus and receive Him as your Savior today.

If His plan is not perfectly clear, read this information over and over, without stopping until you understand it.  Your soul is worth more than all the world.

 “For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul?”  (Mark 8:36).

God’s power will save you, keep you saved, and enable you to live a victorious Christian life.  “There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, Who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it” (I Corinthians 10:13).

Surely, you realize you are a sinner.  Right now, wherever you are, repenting, lift your heart to God in prayer.

In Luke 18:13, the sinner prayed: “God be merciful to me a sinner.” Just pray:  “Father, I know that I have broken your laws and my sins have separated me from you.  I am truly sorry, and now I want to turn away from my past sinful life toward you.  Please forgvie me, and help me to avoid sinning again.  I believe that your son, Jesus Christ died for my sins, was resurrected from the dead, is alive, and hears my prayer.  I invite Jesus to become the Lord of my life, to rule and reign in my heart from this day forward.  Please send your Holy Spirit to help me obey You, and to do Your will for the rest of my life.  In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.”

If you decided to receive Jesus today, “Welcome to God’s family.” Now, as a way to grow closer to Him, there are some things to practice daily for spiritual growth:

Do not trust your feelings. They change. Stand on God’s promises. They never change.

Tell someone else about your new faith in Christ.

Spend time with God each day. It does not have to be a long period of time.

Just develop the daily habit of praying to Him and reading His Word. Ask God to increase your faith and your understanding of the Bible.

Seek fellowship with other followers of Jesus. Develop a group of believing friends to answer your questions and support you.

Find a local church where you can worship God.

Witness and tell others about Christ.

You should be baptized in obedience to the Lord Jesus Christ as a public testimony of your salvation and then unite with a Bible-believing church without delay.  “Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord…” (2 Timothy 1:8).
