Salvation

Have you made plans for your future security?

Are you searching for a way to provide for a secure future? The way of man stores up treasures, things like money, stocks & bonds, retirement plans, and insurance policies, to provide for their security during their golden years. God says that our security for the future doesn’t rest in earthly treasures.

“Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there you heart will be also.” Matthew 6: 19-21

While these earthly things can bring you financial security, they cannot provide security for your heart and soul. God wants you to trust Jesus for your security. This is what He has to say about a righteous man.

“His heart is secure, he will have no fear; in the end he will look in triumph on his foes.” Psalm 112:8

You are made righteous through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Because Jesus took your place in payment for your sin, you have the blessed hope of a secure future.

“We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure.” Hebrews 6:19

Jesus loves you and He wants you to have a secure future through a personal relationship with Him.

Are you lonely?  Do you need a friend?

Do you sometimes feel like you’re all alone in the world?  Do you wish there was someone who really cared about you?  Someone you could ALWAYS count on? – NO MATTER WHAT!

God tells you that good friends are very important…

“A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.” Proverbs 17:17

But even close friends and family let us down sometimes.  God says that you have one friend that will NEVER let you down.

“A man of many companions may come to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.” Proverbs 18:24

You don’t need to be afraid when you’re feeling alone, or things are not going well for you.  Jesus is there for you ALL the time.

“Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; He will never leave you nor forsake you.” Deuteronomy 31:6

Jesus wants to be your friend—ALL the time—EVERY time.

Are you looking for REAL JOY in your life?

Is there something missing in your life?  Do you have what you need for your physical comfort, but you still don’t feel real joy in your life?  God says that your joy does not come from material possessions.  God provides you with all the things you need, even things that money can’t buy!

“We are bringing you good news, telling you to turn from these worthless things to the living God, who made heaven and earth and sea and everything in them.  He has shown kindness by giving you rain from heaven and crops in their seasons; he provides you with plenty of food and fills your hearts with joy.” Acts 14:15,17

True joy, the kind of joy that people can’t take away from you, comes from an abiding personal relationship with Jesus Christ.  Trusting Jesus brings joy to your life.

“May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” Romans 15:13

Sometimes having faith in something you can’t see is difficult to imagine, but the joy that will be present in your life as a result of placing your faith in Jesus is evidence of the goal of your faith – the salvation of your soul.

“Though you have not seen Him, you love Him; and even though you do not see Him now, you believe in Him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, for you are receiving the goal of your faith, the salvation of your souls.” 1 Peter 1:8-9

Jesus wants you to feel true joy in your life.

How to Become A Christian?

You’re not here by accident.  Jesus loves you, and He wants you to have a personal relationship with Him. There is just one thing that separates you from God.  That one thing is sin.

People tend to divide themselves into groups – good people and bad people.  But God says that every person that has ever lived is a sinner, and any sin separates us from God.  That includes you and me.

“For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.” Romans 3:23

According to man’s rules, people should be punished or rewarded according to how good they are, and it might be hard for you to understand how Jesus could love you when other people don’t seem to.  But I have great news for you! Jesus DOES love you!  More than you can ever imagine!  And there’s nothing you can do to make him stop!

Are you thinking that you should make things right in your life before you come to Jesus?  Many people feel that way, but that’s not what God says!

“God demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” Romans 5:8

For you to come to God you have to get rid of your sin problem.  But God says that you can’t make yourself right with God by being a better person.  God wants to save you JUST BECAUSE HE LOVES YOU!

“He saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of His mercy.” Titus 3:5

It’s God’s grace that allows you to come to Him – not your efforts to “clean up your life” or work your way to Heaven.  You can’t earn it. It’s a free gift.

“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith – and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God – not by works, so that no one can boast.” Ephesians 2:8-9

For you to come to God, your sin must be paid for.  God’s gift to you is His son, Jesus, who paid the debt for you.

“For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Jesus Christ our Lord.” Romans 6:23

Jesus paid the price for your sin and mine by giving His life on Calvary’s cross.  God brought Jesus back from the dead and paved the way for you to have a personal relationship with Him through Jesus.

All that’s left for you to do is to accept the gift that Jesus is holding out for you right now.

“If you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved.” Romans 10:9-10

God says that if you believe in His son, Jesus, you can live forever with Him in glory.

“For God so loved the world that He gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish, but have eternal life.” John 3:16

Are you ready to accept the gift of eternal life that Jesus is offering you right now?  If it is your sincere desire to ask Jesus to come into your heart as your personal Lord and Savior, then talk to God from your heart:

Here’s a Suggested Prayer:

“Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner and I do not deserve eternal life.  But, I believe You died and rose from the grave to purchase a place in Heaven for me.  Jesus, come into my life, take control of my life, forgive my sins and save me.  I am now placing my trust in You alone for my salvation and I accept your free gift of eternal life.”
