Salvation Is Necessary

 Scripture 

John 3:16:

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.

The above scripture attests to the fact that anyone who believes in the Son of God, Jesus Christ, the Messiah, will be saved. Jesus himself declared in the next verse 17, For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

And that is precisely what Jesus did when he went to the cross and shed his blood for our redemption and the remission of our sins. He didn't come to condemn us rather he came so that by laying down his life for his sheep, we might be eternally delivered from the consequences of our sinful actions which initially led us to an eternal separation from God our Maker and Creator.

Jesus goes further to say in John 10:17-18,  Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again. No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father. 

Romans 10:9-10 puts it further this way, 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.

God loves us and wants everyone saved and that is why He sent His Son, Jesus to rescue us from sin, death and hell. Jesus willingly gave up everything in heaven above and came down to earth to lay down His life for you and I. We will never know and understand the pain He went through on that cross to save us, but we can accept His Love and the Life He went through hell to give us!

The question is, will you accept Him into your heart today?

Prayer 

If you're ready to make Jesus the Lord of your life and accept Him into your heart, please say this prayer:

Father in heaven, 

Thank you for sending your Son Jesus Christ to die for me and save me from my sins, by dying on the cross at Calvary, and shedding his precious blood for my redemption.

Your word says in Romans 10:9-10, That if I confess Jesus as my Lord and believe in my heart that you raised him from the dead, I shall be saved.

I confess Jesus as my Lord and Saviour, and I strongly believe that You raised Him from the dead. Wash me clean with your precious blood that you shed on the cross, and please come into my heart to stay forever, in the matchless Name of Jesus, Amen. 

If you prayed this prayer of salvation, look for a Bible believing church, and please attend church services so you can be built up with God's Word, so you can grow in grace and faith.
