STEP 1

Recognize that… GOD LOVES YOU and He has a Plan for Your Life

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish, but have eternal life. (John 3:16)

STEP 2

Recognize that… Everyone has SINNED and SIN SEPARATES US from GOD

Sin is man walking in his own way in rebellion against God’s will. When we walk away from God, we walk away from life.

For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23)

As sinners, we futilely try to find lifes true meaning in the wrong ways, and the wrong places.

There is a way that seems right to man, but it leads to death. (Proverbs 14:12)

Our own efforts CAN NOT save us

For it is by grace that you have been saved, through faith- and this is not from yourselves, it is the GIFT of God - not by works, so that no one can boast. (Ephesians 2:8-9)

STEP 3

Jesus DIED and ROSE AGAIN for OUR SINS

He DIED in OUR place.

But God demonstrated his own love for us in this: while we were still sinners, Christ died for us (Romans 5:8)

JESUS is the WAY to New Life.

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, and the new has come! (2 Corinthians 5:17)

HE Gives INNER PEACE.

We have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ (Romans 5:1)

AND FREEDOM.

So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed. (John 8:36)

AND ETERNAL LIFE

…but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 6:23)

STEP 4

ASK GOD for FORGIVENESS

CONFESS YOUR SINS TO GOD

He who conceals his sins does not prosper, but whoever confesses and renounces them finds mercy. (Proverbs 28:13)

FORGIVENESS is PROMISED

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. (1 John 1:9)

STEP 5

Place YOUR TRUST in CHRIST and Receive HIM as Your SAVIOR

CHRIST IS READY

Here I am! I stand at the door and knock, if anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will go in… (Revelations 3:30)

Receive HIM NOW

Yet to all who receive him, to those who believed in his name he gave them the right to become children of God. (John 1:12-13)

WHAT TO PRAY

Lord Jesus, I want to have a life with meaning. I want to leave the darkness behind and have Your Light within me. I confess that I have sinned, and I ask for Your forgiveness.

I believe that You died for me and I accept You as MY Savior.

I will turn away from a life of darkness and sin, and now follow You.

It is Your grace and power that will enable me to live for You.

Thank you, Jesus, for saving me, and for giving me a new life in Your Light.

Amen.

WHAT’S NEXT

If you have made your decision to follow Christ, and have accepted him as Your Personal Savior, I would like to welcome you into the family of Christ. Being a Christian does not mean everything is going to be easy, but it does mean that God will stand by your side and help you through the though times.

I would like to encourage you to get involved with a Good, Bible-Believing local church to help maintain your current faith, and help you grow spiritually.

I encourage you to contact me personally, and I will do my best to help you locate a church, and also to answer any questions you may have about your Spiritual Journey.

God Bless,

Your Brother in Christ - Michael.
