What a great day for you to accept Christ as your Lord and Savior and to give your life to Him and His Kingdom! If no one has ever told you, know that Jesus loves you more than anything and anyone.
….Yes, you! No matter your past or your present situation, even if you just made a mistake, Jesus still loves and cares more for you than your mistake. He loves the sinner but hates the sin.
The Bible declares in Romans 3:23, “For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.” You are NOT alone. ALL of us have made mistakes and have fallen in life. Admittedly, when one engages in sin there is temporary satisfaction, yet the price for the temporary satisfaction is death.
Romans 6:23 tells us that, “the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”
You may be wondering, “What is God’s “Gift”?” Well…. We’re always honored to share that over 2000 years ago, God sent his only son to pay the ultimate price for our sins by dying on the cross on Calvary’s mountain. Romans 5:8 tells us, “But God demonstrated his Love for us in that while we were still sinners Christ died for us.”
God LOVES us so much that He gave up His only Son so that we may have the opportunity to everlasting life. Now that you know what the GIFT is I bet you’re thinking…… How can I get this gift?
We are to confess and convert. Romans 10:9-10 informs us that, “if you confess with your mouth, Jesus is Lord, and (convert) believe in your heart, God raised HIM from the dead, you SHALL be saved.” It is with your heart you believe it and with your mouth you confess it.
Getting Jesus is as simple as A. B. C. A. = Accept - Accept the fact that you are a sinner in need of God’s Grace (Romans 3:23 ). Accept the fact that Jesus is Lord (Luke 2:11 ) B. = Believe - Believe in your heart that Jesus paid the price for your salvation by dying on the cross and that He rose again on the third day. (Romans 10:9-10; 1 Corinthians 15:3-4) C. = Confess - Confess with your mouth that Jesus died and rose again for your sins. (Romans 10:9:10)
Would you repeat our belief statement with us as a confession to be saved and a part of God’s Kingdom?
Dear Lord Jesus, I acknowledge that I have sinned and fallen short of your glory. I am in need of your grace. Thank you for dying for my sins and saving my life so that I can be delivered and find safety in your Kingdom. HOLY SPIRIT come into my life and teach me thy ways. So that I may see your Kingdom and be faithful to your Kingdom. In Jesus' name we pray, Amen.
If you prayed that prayer then we welcome you to the Lord’s side and to the Kingdom of God.
For us, it is very important that you stay connected and that you get involved to work on your salvation and to grow in the Kingdom. We believe this because you can be the church without the Kingdom but you cannot be Kingdom without church. We are here to serve you and with you wherever you are.
