Jesus is the "Free Gift"

Salvation (being born again, being saved, becoming a Christian, accepting Christ as your Savior) is a free gift from God.
 But like any other gift offered to you it isn't yours until you reach out and take it.
How do you do that?
 

A. Admit that you are a sinner and that you are in need of God's forgiveness.

"For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God"
 ~Romans 3:23~



 

B. Repent of your sin, for the wages of sin is death.

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

C. Ask Jesus to forgive you of your sin, accept
Him as your Savior, and give Him control of your life.

"For whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved."
 ~Romans 10:13~
 

D. Tell someone of your decision to accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior.
 

"That 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."
~Romans 10:9~
 

Your prayer may go something like this:

"Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner, and I know that my sin
must be paid for. I accept Your death on the cross as payment for my sin.
Please come into my
heart and save me. I give You my life, and accept You as Savior, I make You Lord of my life. Thank you, Jesus, for saving me."
 

What counts is what is in your heart. If you pray that prayer or a prayer like that and mean it,
then Jesus will do exactly what you ask Him to do. You will be new, forgiven, and blameless in Christ.

If you have prayed that prayer and would like to have further assistance in following Jesus, please email me and I will gladly respond, if you would like to talk just call me.
