Four Steps to God
1. God Loves You!
The Bible says, "God so loved
the world that He gave His one
and only Son, that whoever
believes in Him shall not perish,
but have eternal life"
The problem is that...
2. All of us have done, said or
thought things that are wrong.
This is called sin, and our sins
have separated us from God.
The Bible says "All have sinned
and fall short of the glory of
God." God is perfect and holy,
and our sins separate us from
God forever. The Bible says "The
wages of sin is death."
The good news is that, about
2,000 years ago,
3. God sent His only Son Jesus
Christ to die for our sins.
Jesus is the Son of God. He lived
a sinless life and then died on
the cross to pay the penalty for
our sins. "God demonstrates His
own love for us in that while we
were yet sinners Christ died for
us."
Jesus rose from the dead and
now He lives in heaven with
God His Father. He offers us the
gift of eternal life -- of living
forever with Him in heaven if
we accept Him as our Lord and
Savior. Jesus said "I am the way,
the truth, and the life. No one
comes to the Father except by
Me."
God reaches out in love to you
and wants you to be His child.
"As many as received Him, to
them He gave the right to
become children of God, even to
those who believe on His
name." You can choose to ask
Jesus Christ to forgive your sins
and come in to your life as your
Lord and Savior.
4. If you want to accept Christ
as your Savior and turn from
your sins, you can ask Him to be
your Savior and Lord by praying
a prayer like this:
"Lord Jesus, I believe you are
the Son of God. Thank you for
dying on the cross for my sins.
Please forgive my sins and
give me the gift of eternal life.
I ask you in to my life and
heart to be my Lord and
Savior. I want to serve you
always."
