ABC's of Salvation
  A- cknowledge your need for a Savior.
  The Bible is clear–
  every person who has ever lived
  is a sinner both by nature and by action.

   “As it is written:
  "There is none righteous,
  no, not one. . .

  for all have sinned
  and fall short of the glory of God.”
  Romans 3:10, 23

  Therefore,
  just as through one man
  sin entered the world,
  and death through sin,
  and thus death spread to all men,
  because all sinned.
   Romans 5:12



  Because of our sin,
  we are under the righteous
  judgment of God


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



  He who believes in the Son
  has everlasting life;
  and he who does not believe the Son
  shall not see life,
  but the wrath of God abides on him.
   John 3:36





  B- elieve in Jesus Christ
  as your Lord and Savior.

  Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ,
  and you will be saved.
   Acts 16:31


  For God so loved the world
  that He gave His only begotten Son,
  that whoever believes in Him should not perish
  but have everlasting life
  John 3:16



  Believing in Christ
  involves believing in who He is,
  the perfect Son of God.

  if you do not believe
  that I am He,
  you will die in your sins.
   John 8:24




  Believing in Christ
  also involves trusting in
  what He has done
  for those who believe,
  dying for their sin.



  The next day John saw
  Jesus coming toward him,
  and said, 'Behold! The Lamb of God
  who takes away the sin of the world!'
   John 1:29


  But God demonstrates
  His own love toward us,
  in that while we were still sinners,
  Christ died for us.”
  Romans 5:8





  C- onfess Jesus Christ
  as your Lord and Savior.
  Public and open acknowledgment of
  Christ as Savior
  is an effective way
  to express faith in Him.

   [Jesus has been]
  “declared to be the Son of God
  with power according to the Spirit of holiness,
  by the resurrection from the dead.”
   Romans 1:4

  Therefore whoever
  confesses Me before men,
  him I will also confess before
  My Father who is in heaven.
  But whoever
  denies Me before men,
  him I will also deny before
  My Father who is in heaven.
   Matthew 10:32-32



  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.
  For with the heart one believes
  unto righteousness,
  and with the mouth confession
  is made unto salvation. . .
  For whoever calls on the name
  of the LORD shall be saved.
   Romans 10:9-10, 13




  The difficult part
  in becoming a Christian
  is the willingness to admit
  our need of a Savior
  and to call upon
  the name of the Lord.
  If you recognize your helpless
  spiritual condition as a sinner,
  doomed to eternal judgment
  by a Holy God,
  you need to place your trust
  in Jesus Christ today.


  behold, now is the accepted time;
  behold, now is the day of salvation.
   2 Corinthians 6:2



  And the Spirit and the bride say,
  ‘Come!’ And let him who hears say,
  ‘Come!’ And let him who thirsts come.
  Whoever desires,
  let him take the water of life freely.
   Revelation 22:17
