How to Be Saved
To be saved, you must:
1.) Realize that you are a sinner. "ALL have sinned..." and "The wages of sin is death." (Rom. 3:23, 6:23;1 Jn.1:8)
2.) Realize you cannot save yourself. Jesus Christ paid the penalty for your sin (Eph. 2:8,9; John 3:16; Rom. 5:8); there is no other way to heaven except through him. (Acts 16:31; Jn. 14:6)
3.) Repent and ask God to save you. He promises to forgive you. (Rom. 10:8-13; I Jn.1:9)
4.) Receive Christ into your heart as your Lord and Saviour. (Salvation is a gift, but a gift must be received to be yours.) John 1:12
If you did the above, then thank God for saving you and begin your new life in Christ as a child of God. II Cor. 5:17 (The first step after salvation is to tell someone about it. Rom. 10:9-11)
