| God says in order to go to Heaven, you must be
born again. In John 3:7, Jesus said to Nicodemus, "You must
be born again." |
| In the Bible God give us the plan of how to
be born again which means to be saved. His plan is
simple! You can be saved today. How? |
| First, my friend, you must realize you are
a sinner. "For all have sinned, and come short of the
glory of God" (Romans 3:23). |
| Because you are a sinner, you are condemned
to death. "For the wages [payment] of sin is death"
(Romans 6:23). This includes eternal separation from God in
Hell. |
| "... It is appointed unto men once to die, but
after this the judgment" (Hebrews 9:27). |
| But God loved you so much He gave His only
begotten Son, Jesus, to bear your sin and die in your place.
"... He hath made Him [Jesus, Who knew no sin]
to be sin for us... that we might be made the righteousness
of God in Him" (2 Corinthians 5:21). |
| Jesus had to shed His blood and die.
"For the life of the flesh is in the blood"
(Leviticus 17:11). "... without shedding of blood is no
remission [pardon]" (Hebrews 9:22). |
| "... God commendeth His love towards us, in
that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us"
(Romans 5:8). |
| Although we cannot understand how, God said
my sins and your sins were laid upon Jesus and He died in
our place. He became our substitute. It is true. God
cannot lie. |
| My friend, "God... now commandeth all
men everywhere to repent" (Acts 17:30). |
| This repentance is a change of mind
that agrees with God that one is a sinner, and also agrees with
what Jesus did for us on the Cross. |
| In Acts 16:30-31, the Philippian jailer asked
Paul and Silas "... 'Sirs, what must I do to be saved?'
And they said, 'Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou
shalt be saved...'" |
| Simply believe on Him as the one who bore
your sin, died in your place, was buried, and whom God
resurrected. |
| His resurrection powerfully assures
that the believer can claim everlasting life when Jesus is
received as Savior. |
| "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). |
| "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. |
| 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: "Oh, God, I know I am a
sinner. I believe Jesus was my substitute when He died on the
Cross. I believe His shed blood, death, burial, and resurrection
were for me. I now receive Him as my Savior. I thank You for the
forgiveness of my sins, the gift of salvation and everlasting
life, because of Your merciful grace. Amen." |
| 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! |
| God's simple plan of salvation is: 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
salvation by faith. |
| You say, "Surely, it cannot be that simple."
Yes, that simple! It is scriptural. It is God's plan. My
friend, believe on Jesus and receive Him as Savior today. |
| If His plan is not perfectly clear, read
this over and over, without leaving this page 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). |
| Be sure you are saved. If you lose your soul,
you miss Heaven and lose all. Please! Let God save you this
very moment. |
| 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" (1
Corinthians 10:13). |
| Do not trust your feelings. They change.
Stand on God's promises. They never change. After you are
saved, there are three things to practice daily for
spiritual growth: Pray -- you talk to God. Read your
Bible -- God talks to you. Witness -- you talk for
God. |
| 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). |
| "Whosoever therefore shall confess [testify
of] Me before men, him will I confess also before My Father
which is in heaven" (Matthew 10:32). |
