SIMPLE WAY OF SALVATION...

“..For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.” -James 4:14. 

-If your life & your faith is in anyone other than Jesus, according to God’s Word your faith is inadequate(insufficient).
Listen to what He says in His Word:“He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.”–Matthew 11:15. 

The Bible says:
Do you admit that you are a sinner?
-Admit your sinfulness and seek to turn from it. God said, 
• “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.”               -Romans 3:23

• “For there is not a just man upon earth, that doeth good, and sinneth not.”- Ecclesiastes 7:20

• “As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one.” 
   –Romans 3:10
Do you realize that you will die in your sins without the gift of eternal life through Jesus Christ?
• “..the soul that sinneth, it shall die.”-Ezekiel 18:4

• “For the wages of sin is death;(This means both physical and spiritual death.) but the gift of   God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” -Romans 6:23

Do you understand that you cannot save yourself?
• “For by grace are ye saved through faith, and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast.” -Ephesians 2:8-9
 
• “Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, by the washing of regeneraton, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;” -Titus 3:5

-NOT BY TRUSTING IN SOME CHURCH, RELIGION, OR SAINT!
• “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

Will you turn from your sin(repent) and completely believe and trust Jesus Christ to SAVE you right now? 
THEN YOU MUST..
Repent: 
• “..God..now commandeth all men every where to repent:” 
    -Acts 17:30

 • “..but, except ye repent, you shall all likewise perish” -Luke 13:3

Believe:
-THROUGH JESUS CHRIST ONLY..
• “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

-Trust and believe in Jesus Christ alone as your Personal Saviour and Lord:
• “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

• “These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the Son of God.” -1 John 5:13

• “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

• “And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.” -Acts 16:30-31

Receive:
• “But as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His name.”-John 1:12
*Accept God’s offer of salvation through His Son and let Him take control of your life.

ü WILL YOU ACCEPT JESUS?
Paul wrote, “Behold, now is the accepted time; behold now is the day of salvation.” (2 Corinthians 6:2). You can do it today by praying something like this:

      Oh Lord , I admit that I am a sinner and that in my own strength I cannot do anything to please You or to earn Eternal Life. Lord, I ask you to please forgive me to all that I have done wrong. Thank you for dying on the cross to pay the penalty for my sins. I put my faith in You and I now completely accept and trust You oh Lord Jesus Christ as my Saviour. I turn away from my sin and let You take control of my life. Save me and be my Lord. This I pray, I turn back all thanksgiving and praises in the name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Amen.

*If you prayed that prayer with all sincerity, you can honestly say, “Now I have the right kind of faith!”; “Now I am a son of God and member of God’s kingdom!”

Now that God sees you as His child, you are responsible to live up to your new life. Is your walk worthy of Jesus? If not, you have some work to do. Confess your failure and ask God to forgive you. Then depend on the Holy Spirit to help you grow in obedience.

ü WILL YOU REJECT JESUS?
The way to be saved is so simple! Yet many refused to be saved. They will not accept Jesus Christ, and Him alone, for salvation from sin and its penalty. They do not believe that the Lord Jesus is powerful enough to save them all Himself. DO YOU?

• “He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life(eternal life); but the wrath of God abideth in him.” -John 3:36

• “He that believeth on Him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten son of God.” -John 3:18

*THIS IS NOT BY ACCIDENT THAT YOU ARE READING THIS ARTICLES..GOD planned it for you and not somebody else. He even planned for you to view this blogsite and read His Biblical Principles. He is knocking on your door(heart) today..
“As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent. Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear My voice, and open the door, I will come into him, and will sup with him, and he with Me.”
                                                                        -Revelation 3:19-20

What Must I Do to Be Saved?

“God..now commands all men everywhere to repent...” –Acts 17:30

            By natural birth we are all in Adam’s family. To become a God’s family, we must be born again spiritually. God’s Word tells us that our part in the new birth is to: (1) repent, (2) believe, and (3) receive. In this article we will learn what it means to repent.

WHY WE NEED TO REPENT

            The reason we need to repent is that we have been going the wrong way. We have not been going God’s way. Instead, we have been going our own way. The Bible says, “we have turned every one to HIS OWN WAY...” –Isaiah 53:6. Because we have been going our own way, we must we must repent if we want to be saved. The Lord Jesus said. “Except you repent, you shall all likewise perish.”

            Repentance is not shedding many tears over your sins. Many people weep and cry out to God and yet do not repent. Repentance is not going without food or afflicting your body. No one can get rid of his sins by doing these things.

            Repentance is not just being sorry for your sins. A man in prison may be sorry that he is having to suffer for his wrong-doing. But, if he has not repented, he would go back to his old ways if released.

            Repentance is not fear. Sometimes in a time of great danger, men who have been accustomed to cursing may become quiet and even cry out to God for mercy. But, when the danger is passed, they go back to their cursing. They have not repented.

            What then is repentance? Repentance is a “turn around” –a change of mind that leads to a change in our attitudes and actions. Repentance can take place in a moment’s time. When you say, “I see that I have been going the wrong way; with God’s help, I will turn to Christ,” –THAT IS REPENTANCE. This brings joy to God’s heart.

            Jesus told us that there are two roads in life-a broad road and a narrow road. He told us where each of these roads leads. The broad road leads to “destruction”-hell; the narrow road leads to “life”-everlasting life in Heaven.

            Because we were born into Adam’s family, by nature we are all on the broad road. This road leads to destruction. If we want to get on the narrow road that leads to everlasting life in Heaven, we must turn around. Jesus said, “Except you repent[turn around], you shall all likewise perish.”

            What does it mean to repent? it means to turn around and go in the other direction. This involves a change of mind about ourselves, about our sins, and about God.

Which will you choose?

So you've read about God, Jesus, and the Bible. You've read about the Gospel, Jesus' plan for connecting you to God and giving you something more to live for. (If you haven't read about these things, take a few minutes to do so�you might be surprised at what you read!)

But what do you do with all this?
Simply reading about Jesus and God isn't enough. You have a choice to make. You have to decide what to do with the radical and far-reaching claims that the Bible makes about you, Jesus, and your relationship with God.
Let's review the heart of those claims:
First, the Bible says that you (like every other human who's ever lived) are unable to know true peace because your sin has separated you from God.
But secondly (and this is the good news!) God still loves you, and wants you to know him and live a life that's in phase with his will. God sent his only son, Jesus, to become a human himself and pay the price for your sins. Death is where sin inevitably leads�but Jesus died voluntarily in your place. When you believe that Jesus died for your sin, you're home free. The slate's wiped clean, and God chalks up your sin as "paid in full"�by Jesus. The barrier that stood between you and God is gone.
We call this story "the Gospel," or Good News... because what could be better news than learning that God is inviting you into his family?
So what is this choice that you have to make? It's simple: you have to choose whether or not to believe in Jesus' sacrifice. That means admitting that your sin keeps you from God, and that Jesus offers the way back home. That's all you have to do: accept this free gift from Jesus, no strings attached.

What's the best piece of news you ever received?

Maybe it was the day the love of your life said "yes" when you asked, on your knees, if she would marry you. Maybe it was the news that you'd just landed your dream job, the one you'd been aiming at for as long as you could remember. Or maybe the good news took the form of your newborn baby's very first hesitant cries—the sounds that told you she was alive and well.
Those are all examples of good news. Even if you haven't experienced a lot of good news yourself, you can probably think of other examples, from small pleasant surprises to life-changing developments.
But there's one piece of news so amazing, so transforming, that it's not just good news: it's the Good News. Something so wonderful that every other good thing that's happened to you simply pales in comparison.
So what is it? Here it is:
There is a God, He loves you, and you can know Him personally.
That's it. Think for a moment about what that means: it means that there's something more to life than the daily grind. It means that pain, disappointment, and suffering are not the end-all-be-all of your life. It means that Somebody loves you without asking anything in return—no matter how messed up your life is, no matter what you've done.
