Now because "by his own blood he entered in once into the the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us." (Hebrews 9:12b), there remains no price for us to pay! "It is finished:" (John 19:30a).
We are "justified freely by his grace" (Romans 3:24a). Salvation is "Not of works, lest any man should boast." (Ephesians 2:9). God "hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began," (2Tim 1:9)
As the Bible, God's Word, says, "Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law." (Romans 3:28). "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: IT IS THE GIFT OF GOD:" (Ephesians 2:8)
The Bible says, "As it is written, There is none righteousness, no, not one:" (Romans 3:10). "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;" (Romans 3:23). Sin is the problem, and belonging to a church will NOT take it away. Jesus Christ Himself said, "Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." (John 3:3b)
The Bible says, "And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:" (Hebrews 9:27). You really don't know for sure how much time is left of your life. "Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away. " (James 4:14)
The Bible says, "that a man is not justified by the works of the law," (Galatians 2:16a). It also says, "we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousness are as filthy rags," (Isaiah 64:6a)
The Bible says, "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." (Romans 10:13). The Bible says, "Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners;" (2Tim 1:15b). "For Christ also hath once suffereed for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God," (I Peter 3:18a).
The Bible says, "And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night," (Revelations 14:11a). "For the wages of sin is death:" (Romans 6:23a). But this death is more than just physical death. It is an "ETERNAL BURNING"! The Bible says, "But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and ALL LIARS, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the SECOND DEATH." (Revelations 21:8)
The Bible calls for "REPENTANCE TOWARD GOD." (Acts 20:21b). "Repentance" is a change of heart which causes you to turn from your way of life toward God, accepting the Bible facts that you are guilty as a sinner before Him, and that you are unable to deliver yourself from the punishment of hell, due you because of your sin.
The Bible also calls for "FAITH TOWARD OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST." (Acts 20:21b). Faith is putting "complete trust in Jesus Christ" as your only means of clearing your guilt and delivering your soul from punishment of hell.
The Bible says, "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved," (Acts 16:31a). If you will receive Jesus Christ into your heart, "By trusting Him to save your soul," you will become a son of God and spend eternity in heaven. "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 1:12). GOD PROMISED HE will save you if you trust Jesus Christ as "your" Saviour. "That 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)
Jesus Christ said, "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowley in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light." (Matthew 11:28-30).
If you will accept Jesus Christ as "your" Lord and Saviour, please pray and talk to God about it. Below is an EXAMPLE of what you might pray, repeating these words does not save you, but truly meaning them from your heart and receiving God's free gift of salvation by faith does:
Dear Lord
Have mercy upon me a sinner, I believe that I am a sinner and can not save myself.
I know that Christ died on the cross to take my place and I accept him now into my heart as my personal Lord and Saviour. Lord come into my heart and cleans me from all unrighteousness with your blood you shed on that cross for me. I believe you rose again on the thrid day and I am now also bornagain as I trust in you.
Lord I now belong to you, and because I trust in you and what you have done for me, I am a new creature in Christ. Thank you Lord for saving me. Help me to grow in my new Christian walk. Praise God Praise God, I am no longer dead in sin.
Yours Because of Christ,
Sister April
