But God offers us what we cannot earn – the free gift of eternal life provided by Jesus! * Romans 5:8 “But God demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the cross. He died on our behalf. * Romans 10:9-10 “...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. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. To receive this free gift, you need to do two things: First, make a verbal confession your personal declaration) that Jesus is your Lord (Master), and second, believe in your heart that God has indeed raised Jesus from the dead. * Romans 10:13 “...For everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” This leaves no doubt.

I also believe that Jesus came to earth, and paid the price for my sins so that I could have eternal life. I believe in my heart that You raised Him from the dead, and I now profess Him to be my Lord and Master. I believe you have heard my prayer, and I thank you for saving me now, just as you promised. In Jesus Name, Amen!” Scripture taken from the HOLY BIBLE, NEW INTERNATIONAL VERSION® NIV. Copyright© 1973, 1978, 1984 by International Bible Society. Used by permission. All rights reserved. |
