Salvation
Every person is going to live forever; not our bodies, but our spirits.
This gives us a choice.
19I call heaven and earth as witnesses today against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing; therefore choose life, that both you and your descendants may live;
John 6:40
40And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him may have everlasting life; and I will raise him up at the last day."
John 3:16
16For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
John 14:6
6Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
Romans 10:9-10
9that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
If you are ready for salvation, please pray this prayer, or one in your own words, then tell someone that you have accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as your Lord and savior. If you do that and believe in your heart, mind and spirit that Jesus is your Lord, and do your best to follow His teachings, you will be saved.
"Heavenly Father, have mercy on me, a sinner. I repent of my sins and
ask for your forgiveness. I believe in you and I believe your word is true and that Jesus
Christ, Your Son, died on the cross for me, to save me from my sins. I believe in my
heart that You raised Him from the dead and that He is alive forever more. I give you my
life and ask you to take full control of it. I pray this in the name of Jesus Christ, my
Lord and Savior
Amen"
If you prayed this pray, congratulations! You are a new creation and your life now has a deep meaning, purpose and direction.
2 Corinthians 5:17Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.
