Know God Today

How Can I Know God?

We are so glad you came to this section of our Website!  Perhaps it was mere curiosity that brought you here or even a genuine desire to really know the God who both made and loves you.  

We pray that these next few moments looking at these truths will change your life for time and eternity.

 

What Is Salvation?

Salvation is deliverance (freedom) from the authority and control of sin.  According to the Word of God, you will be saved from enemies (Luke 1:71), sin (Romans 10:9-10), bondage (Acts 4:12).

 

Salvation comes from the Greek word, 'soteria', which means deliverance.  Salvation, in the New Testament, refers to eternal and temporary deliverance from danger.  Deliverance is a release from bondage, imprisonment and captivity.

What Must I Do To Be Saved?

Admit your spiritual need, and accept the promise that Christ is the solution.  We are all sinners.... Romans 3:23 states "All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God."  We cannot solve the problem of sin, but God, who is perfect, can and has.  He has become a bridge for us. John 3:16-17 states "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved."

Salvation is a gift available to ALL who repent (change their attitude and direction toward sin) and believe in Jesus  (Romans 10:9-10), which prepares you to confess Him as your Savior and Lord.

 

He invites you today!  Come to Him, all that remains is your response.  Receive Him Today! John 1:12 states "For as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become the children of God. If you would like to receive Jesus Christ into your heart and life right now, pray this prayer from the sincerity of your heart:

Dear Lord Jesus,
I know I am a sinner. I believe You died for my sins.  Right now, I turn from my sins and open the door of my heart and life to You, I receive You as my personal Lord and Savior.  Thank You for saving me.
Amen

 

If you just prayed that prayer and really meant it.  Jesus Christ has now taken residence in your heart!  Not only that, but He has also forgiven you of all your sin.  Your decision to receive Christ also means that you are now going to Heaven one day.  That's a lot to be thankful for!  You need to take some practical steps to grow strong spiritually:  Read the Bible, pray, and go to church.

 

Salvation is a gift available to all who repent (change their attitude and direction toward sin) and believe in Jesus (Romans 10:9-10), which prepares you to confess Him as your Savior and Lord.
