The ABC'S OF SALVATION
Some people think a personal relationship with God is something only theologians can comprehend.
Actually, God's plan of salvation is simple enough for everyone to understand.
Here are the ABC's of salvation:
A... All persons need salvation. Each of us has a problem the Bible calls sin. Sin is a refusal to acknowledge God's authority over our lives. Everyone who does not live a life of perfect obedience to the Lord is guilty of sin. Since none of us is perfect, all of us are sinners (Romans 3:10-18). The result of sin is spiritual death (Ezekiel 18:4b). Spiritual death means eternal separation from God.
By God's perfect standard, we are guilty of sin and therefore subject to the punishment for sin, which is separation from God.
B... But God loves each of us. God offers us salvation. Although we have done nothing to deserve His love and salvation, God wants to save us.
In the death of Jesus on the cross, God provided salvation for all who would repent of their sins and place their faith in Jesus.
C... Come to Jesus for eternal salvation. The desire in your heart to be saved is the Holy Spirit offering you the forgiveness of your sin and the gift of eternal life. Admit your sin, ask Jesus to deliver you from the consequences of sin, and you will be saved (Romans 10:9-10). Then yield control of your life to Him as your Savior and Lord. Tell your pastor or a Christian friend about your decision!
