Salvation

 

Salvation is a gift from God that you do not have to earn. Ephesians 2:8-9 says:

“ 8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; [it is] the gift of God, 9 not of works, lest anyone should boast.”

 

Every human has sinned and fallen short of the glory of God according to Romans 3:23.  That means that unless something was done about sin, then no person could have a relationship with God because God can't be around sin.

So God, because He loves humans so much, gave His only son to humans. 

 

His son is named Jesus.

 

When God sent Jesus to earth in the flesh, God actually placed all sin of all humans for all time on Jesus His son (2 Corinthians 5:21)

Jesus is also God and He was the only perfect one and the only one strong enough to handle all the sin of all mankind. Because he became sin, Jesus died and then three days after he died, God raised Him up from the dead- sin free!! 

 

This is the most miraculous thing: that if you decide to believe this {and you can prove that you do believe it by saying that you do -Romans 10:9-10} then God - the Creator will come and live in your heart.

 

He will save you from paying for your sin yourself. 

 

This is something you cannot earn but it will cost you. Once you make this decision, your life will change. God will begin working with your heart to teach you how to make better decisions and see things the way that He does.

 

Please don't take this decision lightly because God wants a real relationship with you. He doesn't want you to just say some prayer so you can stay out of Hell paying for your own sin. He wants to teach you to and cause you to live your life based on His Word and direction for the rest of your life. He has the sin thing handled so let Him handle it and you enjoy a better life!  

I am not going to tell you what to say to God because I am going to ask you to sit down, think about this decision and just talk to Him like He is your friend because He is. 

 

Once you have made your decision that you are going to let Jesus be the boss of your life, you will need a Bible . If you don't have one or can't get one, hit me up in the contact form and we'll get you one! When you have a Bible, start reading in the book of John first... then, when you're done with that.... shoot me a message and we will go from there. 

You can talk to God whenever you want to once you have made this choice and know for certain that He is listening to you... Talk to Him like a really powerful and important friend! 

 

Remember I love you but most importantly, Jesus loves you
