"The Human Problem - Separation From God
Romans 3:23: "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God."
This means everyone since Adam and Eve inherited a bent toward sin. One needs only to
look at a room full of preschoolers to see that sin is our natural tendency.

The Result - Spiritual Death
Romans 6:23: "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through
Jesus Christ our Lord."
God is holy and just, which means he cannot tolerate sin except through just
punishment - death and eternal judgment.

God's Solution - His Death In Our Place
Romans 5:8: "But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still
sinners, Christ died for us."
This is what John the Bapitzer alluded to when he said of Christ, "Behold, the Lamb of
God that takes away the sin of the world." Jesus - God in the flesh - was the only
acceptable sacrifice for our sinful condition.

Your Salvation - By Faith
Romans 10:9: "If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart
that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved."
Faith - believing from the heart - is God's requirement for Salvation.
Romans 10:13: "Whosoever calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."
Romans 5:1: "Therefore, since we have been declared righteous by faith, we have peace
with God through our Lord Jesus Christ."

Are you ready to agree with God that you are a sinner needing Salvation by His grace?
Are you ready to repent (turn away) from self rule and receive Jesus as Lord of your life?
If so, please pray this prayer out loud from the very depths of your own heart.

Dear Jesus, I agree that I'm a sinner and I need You to Save me
from eternal judgment. I believe that You are God's only begotten Son,
that You died in my place and conquered death on my behalf
through Your bodily resurrection. I repent of my sin and cast myself
on God's mercy, asking You to come in as my Lord and Savior and make me
a new creation. Please give me a new heart and new desires.
Thank You for Saving me oh God. In Jesus Name, Amen."
