HOW TO HAVE PEACE WITH GOD...
1. GOD LOVES YOU AND DESIRES TO SAVE YOU: HE SENT HIS SON (JESUS CHRIST) TO SUFFER AND DIE FOR YOU.
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” John 3:16
“But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” Romans 5:8
“The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.” 2 Peter 3:9
2. SIN HAS SEPARATED YOU FROM GOD:
MAN HAS CHOSEN TO DISOBEY GOD.
“As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one” Romans 3:10
“They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.” Romans 3:12
“For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God” Roman 3:23
3. GOD’S PLAN OF REDEMPTION:
THROUGH JESUS CHRIST.
“Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” John 14:6
“Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.” Acts 4:12
“For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus” 1 Timothy 2:5
4. YOUR RESPONSE TO GOD:
REPENT AND BELIEVE (TRUST) IN CHRIST.
“And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:” Acts 17:30
“Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:” John 11:25
“That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.” Romans 10:9
WILL YOU TURN TO CHRIST NOW?
HERE’S HOW:
1. Admit to God that you have sinned and that you need to be saved.
2. Ask God to forgive you and repent (turn from sin).
3. Believe that Jesus Christ died for you on a cross and rose from the dead.
A sample prayer:
Dear God, I have sinned against you. I ask you to forgive me for all my sins. I turn from sin and trust in Jesus Christ to save me. I believe that Jesus died on a cross and rose from the dead. I want Jesus to come into my heart and life and make me a new person in Him. I ask you to help me live for you from this day forward. In Jesus’ name, amen.
