How Can I Be Saved?

Can I be saved?All sinners can be saved regardless of how sinful they are. This is because the blood of Jesus Christ is able to wash away all sins, not matter how heinous the sins are in the eyes of God and man. Salvation is of God. God will save us when we believe. It is like a man caught in a fast flowing river toward a huge waterfall that is certain death; he is thrown a life-line and he grabs it and is saved. God is throwing you a life-line in Christ, i.e. when you hear the gospel of Jesus Christ. All you need to do is to believe like the man who reaches out his hand to grab that life-line. The act of grabbing is your faith. It is not your faith that saves you but the life-line.

The gospel of Jesus Christ tells us – All sinners are born in sin and have committed innumerable sins against God such as the worship of idols, lying, lusting, cheating, and hating without a just cause. Therefore all sinners will die in sin. After death there will be punishment by God. As sinners in this life, the holy God will cast every sinner to hell where there is gnashing of teeth.

God does not desire to cast anyone to hell. Because of God’s love for sinners, He sent His only begotten Son Jesus Christ to suffer and die for all sinners, including you dear reader. God sent Jesus Christ to this earth to be born of flesh and blood through the virgin Mary, to be born without sin. He lived a perfect life according to all of God's laws. He suffered the pain of persecution for our sins. Then He died by crucifixion on the cross of Calvary as a punishment for our sins. God accepted the perfect sacrifice of Jesus Christ who lived and died for us as full payment for all our sins by raising Him from the dead. If you believe that Jesus Christ died for you, you will be saved. Jesus is the Life-Line!

Romans 10:9-11 “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. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.”

Isaiah 1:18 “Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.”

Pray this prayer from your heart – O God I have sinned against you grievously. I know in my heart that I deserve to be sent to hell if I die in my sins. I beg Thee O God for mercy. I confess my sins before Thee. I accept Jesus Christ as my Lord and Saviour who died on Calvary’s cross for my sins, with all my heart. Please forgive me O God for Jesus’ sake. I thank Thee O God that Thou raised Jesus Christ from the dead for my justification so that I can be saved from my sins and stand before Thy holy presence accepted and righteous. I thank Thee O God for saving me, in Jesus’ name I pray with all my heart. Amen.
