“But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”
-Romans 5:8
4. We must receive Jesus Christ as our Saviour.
“But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those that believe in His name.”
-John 1:12“That 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.”

Friend, please take a minute and read through those verses again. The Bible shows us how we can have a personal relationship with GOD—in Jesus Christ. Knowing Him can give you peace on the inside and a sense of purpose in life. It will help you have the power to prevail, no matter what situation in life you may face. It is important to consider these things today! Salvation from the penalty of sin enables us to go to heaven and then come back to reign with Jesus, while to be lost is to be under sin’s condemnation and destined for an everlasting hell. Now is the time of salvation!
