Salvation By Grace

 

One of the first things you have to do in order to be saved is realize that you are a sinner and that you need a Saviour. In Romans 3:23 it says,

"23 For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God."

And here is the penalty for this sin, as it says in 6:23,

"23 For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."

And now, Romans 5:8,

"8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us."

The apostle Paul tells us what the gospel is, in 1st Corinthians chapter 15 it says,

"Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;

2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.

3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;

4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:"

Now watch how simple salvation really is, in Romans 10 it says,

"9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."

In Ephesians chapter 1 it says,

"12 That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ."

Believe that Jesus died for your sins, was buried, and rose again and call upon the Lord and ask him to save you and you will be SAVED.
