My Journey to Life, Step 3—Salvation

4. How can I be saved?

Scripture tells us we must believe in Jesus and accept Him as Lord to be saved. This involves more than just intellectual assent that Jesus was a good person who lived long ago in Palestine. Rather, we must first recognize that we are sinners, that the wages of sin is death, and then invite Jesus to be our Savior from the deadly consequences of sin. Whatever our past or present mistakes, however we may have spiraled out of God’s plan for our life, His Spirit continually seeks to remind us of God’s unfailing love, bringing us to repentance. Jesus waits for us with open arms! JTL3 2.9
