God’s Plan of Salvation

The Bible says there is only one way to Heaven.

Jesus said: “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me.” (John 14:6)

Good works cannot save you.

“God saved you by his special favor when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it.” (Ephesians 2:8-9)

Trust Jesus Christ today! Here's what you must do:

  1. Admit you are a sinner.
    Romans 3:23, Romans 5:12, 1 John 1:10
  2. Be willing to turn from sin (repent).
    Luke 13:5, Acts 17:30
  3. Believe that Jesus Christ died for you, was buried, and rose from the dead.
    John 3:16, Romans 5:8, Romans 10:9
  4. Through prayer, invite Jesus into your life to become your personal Savior.
    Romans 10:10, Romans 10:13

What to pray:

Dear God, I am a sinner and need forgiveness. I believe that Jesus Christ shed His precious blood and died for my sin. I am willing to turn from sin. I now invite Christ to come into my heart and life as my personal Savior. John 1:12, 2 Corinthians 5:17

If you have received Jesus Christ as your Savior, as a Christian you should:

  1. Read your Bible every day to get to know Christ better.
    2 Timothy 2:15, Psalms 119:105
  2. Talk to God in prayer every day.
    Matthew 21:22, Philippians 4:6
  3. Be baptized, worship, fellowship, and serve with other Christians in a church where Christ is preached and the Bible is the final authority.
    Matthew 28:19, Hebrews 10:25, 2 Timothy 3:16
  4. Tell others about Christ.
    Mark 16:15, 1 Corinthians 9:16, Romans 1:16
