First Things First

Did you know that accepting God’s free gift of salvation is the most powerful thing you can do for yourself? Jesus suffered a torturous death to free you from eternal punishment for all your sins (past, present, and future). Please, do not hesitate another moment to become a new creation through Jesus’s sacrifice. If you want a do-over in life, make Jesus your Lord and Savior. You are ready now. God will accept you right now, right where you are.

What to Do

According to Romans 10:9–10, you must “confess with your mouth [openly declare] that Jesus is Lord and rose from the dead after His crucifixion.” And you must genuinely believe in your heart that you have received God’s salvation.

If you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is by believing in your heart that you are made right with God, and it is by openly declaring your faith that you are saved. — Romans 10:9–10 (NLT)

For everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. — Romans 10:13 (NLT)

Openly declare Him now by reciting the following Salvation Prayer (or some version thereof) and change your life forever.

Father God, thank You for loving me as I am. I have sinned against You and ask You to forgive me as I surrender my heart to You. Father, I receive Your forgiveness. I receive my new life. Jesus, I believe You died for me and then rose from the grave on the third day. Jesus, be my Lord and Savior. Come live in my heart and transform me. I will follow You. Thank you for life abundant. I pray this in Jesus’s Holy name. Amen!

Congratulations! Welcome to the family. In Christian terms, “You are saved!” Meaning you are now a Christian. That is something worth celebrating! Best. Decision. Ever! I am so proud of you. And I mean that sincerely.
