HOW TO RECEIVE THE FREE GIFT OF ETERNAL LIFE!
Jesus Christ (God the Son) said: "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have eternal life" (John 3:16).
Belief in Jesus Christ is all that is necessary to receive the gift of eternal life. "For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Jesus our Lord" (Romans 6:23).
God said through Paul: "If you confess with your mouth Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved; for with the heart man believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses unto salvation" (Rom. 9:9,10).
To be saved you must confess that you have sinned. "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" (Rom. 3:23).
You must trust Jesus to cleanse you of your sins. "But when this priest (Jesus) had offered for all time one sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God" (Hebrews 10:12).
And you must trust Him to give you eternal life. "The free gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord (Rom. 6:23).
Trust in Jesus today for you do not know what tomorrow may bring.
In your own words tell Jesus that you know you are a sinner in need of a Savior. Also tell Him you are trusting Him today to forgive you and cleanse you of your sins and give you eternal life. Once you have told him this write down that you trusted Jesus to save you. Note the time, date and the location. Also note who else was with you. Make sure you keep it in a safe place -- such as in your Bible. If you do not have a good study Bible buy one -- a Thompson Chain study Bible is the best.
