How to be Saved

How to be Saved


A is ADMIT you're a sinner, that you need Christ as your savior, and that all those who call on the Lord Jesus and obey Him will be saved. You can't be saved without Him, nor add to or take from what Christ has done for you (Romans 3:23, 5:23, 6:23).

B is BELIEVE the Lord Jesus Christ is the Son of the Living God. You can know He is who He says He is by the hundreds of prophecies that came true in His life. Many things foretold hundreds of years before His birth came true in His lifetime, and others, He Himself made come true later (Romans 10:9, 10:10).

C is CONFESS to the Lord and admit to yourself that you have responsibilities and that you have commitments as a believer and follower of Jesus Christ. The more you know about the Lord Jesus Christ, the more you'll want to tell other people about Him (Romans 10:13, 11:36, John 1:1).

What We Should Be About.

We should have a good quiet time.  I would suggest morning and night and fill all other time with prayer and praise.  When I was struggling with my quite time, I asked Joe Veal (Great Guy - Amazing).  He directed me to the passage of mana in the Bible.  He said the answer was there.  He was right.  God sent mana from heaven in the morning and meat at night.  What he was saying was have a devotion in the morning to start your day off right.  (Not to much in the morning.  God told them to take what they could eat and no more.)  Then at night have your main devotion and don't forget to pray.  It is so important and powerful, if used right.  In God's Word He says,
Pray without ceasing. 1 Thessalonians 5:17

I would suggest thinking about the TV shows you watch and the music you listen to.  If they don't honor God then remove them from your life.  As my pastor's wife says, "Garbage in - garbage out!"  That's pretty clear.  Some good alternatives are Toby Mac (Rap), Superchick (just amazing), or maybe Stellar Kart (very good).  If you would like more, please ask.  

The final thing I want to bring out, is one of the defining characteristics of Christianity.   !!!GOD LOVES YOU!!!
He went to the cross, he bled and died.  God sent his only son to die for our sins.   John 3:16 says, For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son, that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life.   God came from heaven to have a personal and intimate relationship with you!

If you are struggling with any aspect of your walk, please ask for prayer.
If you have a friend who is making bad decisions, ask for prayer.
If you have a lost friend, ask for prayer.
ASK FOR PRAYER

If you need guidance please ask.
