JESUS is God – the Son, who died to
save us from the bondage of SIN and eternal doom. Man was created in the righteous image of God but through SIN man lost
that image (Gen 1:27; Rom 3:23; 5:12). God in His mercy, do not want man to
perish forever send JESUS in the form of man to take away our SINS (Jn 3:16; Jn
1:29). With a singular demand that we turn away from our SINS in true
repentance (Acts 3:26) for the forgiveness of our SINS (Acts 5:31; 1Jn 1:9) and
believe in the death and resurrection of JESUS for the redemption and
Justification of our souls (Rom 10:9,10; 5:1). Without Him there is no hope for
lost humanity (Acts 4:12; Jn 4:6).
As we all know, death is inevitable and there is life after death
because the soul of man is eternal (Heb 9:27; Gen 2:7). Therefore it is our
individual responsibility to ensure the salvation of our never-dying soul –
(Luke 13:3,5; Heb 2:3). It is not enough to belong to a Christian Fellowship,
serve God in any capacity or give all you have for the cause of heaven.
Nicodemus, The Ethiopian Eunuch, Paul the Apostle, Cornelius the Centurion were
all religious to the highest degree of human recognition but without JESUS,
their righteousness was not accepted in the sight of God. In His mercy, God saw
their sincerity, sent His servants to preach JESUS to them all.
Don’t be deceived, God do not want us to continue in SIN:
- He has no pleasure in the death of a sinner (John 3:16-18; 1Tim
2:4; Ezek 18:23; 2Peter 3:9;)
- He will punish SIN (Ezek 18:4, 20; Psa 7:11; 9:17; Rev 21:8)
How to be saved from SIN and its consequences:
- Accepts that you are a sinner and you cannot save yourself (Psa
51:5; Jer 3:13; 14:20; Isa 64:6)
- Believe that JESUS died on the cross for your SINS (Mat 1:21;
John 1:29)
- Confess and forsake your SINS and ask God for forgiveness (Prov
28:13; Isa 55:7)
- Declare that you are saved (Rom 8:16; John 8:36)
After receiving JESUS as LORD and SAVIOUR, you are to:
- Join a Bible-believing Church (like the Deeper Life Bible Church)
where you can receive help to grow in your new-found faith (Heb 10:25; 1Peter
2:2)
- Read and meditate on the Word of God (the Holy Bible) daily to
grow in the knowledge of Christ (2Peter 3:18; Jos 1:8; 2Tim 2:15)
- Talk to God in prayer – prayer presupposes a belief in the
personality of God, His ability and willingness to hold intercourse with us,
His personal control of all things and all His creatures and all their actions
(Luke 18:1; Phil 4:6; Eph 6:18; Rom 12:12; Col 4:2; 1Thess 5:17)
- Confess Christ to others at the earliest opportunity and engage
in soul winning (Mark 5:19, 16:15-16; Matt 28:18-19)
- Press on to the next experience of grace, sanctification and the
baptism of the Holy Ghost (Heb 6:1; Acts 1:8)
