God's Plan: God loves us and wants us to have a full life on Earth and spend eternity with him.
Our Problem: Given enough time, all humans will disobey God and this sin separates us from God.
God's Remedy: God has taken the initiative in dealing with our sin. God sent his Son,
the Lord Jesus Christ, to die on a cross for our sin. People have come up with all kinds
of solutions to the sin problem. God has just one solution.
Our Responsibility: The saving work of Christ is finished. God offers us eternal life
as a gift. To have eternal life we must personally receive or accept Jesus Christ as Savior
and Lord. This is done through prayer. The following is a personal prayer for salvation.
If you pray these words with a sincere heart, God will forgive your sin and give you eternal
life.
"God, I know I've disobeyed you, and I'm sorry for what I've done. I know I'm a sinner in
need of a Savior and only Jesus can save me. God, please forgive me and give me eternal life.
Thank you, Jesus for dying for me. From this day forward, as an expression of my love for
you, I will make a sincere effort to follow you, allowing your teachings to shape the way I
think and act. Amen."
