Where to Look In the Bible

sincere desire to be saved from your sins. For God has promised that “whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved” (Romans 10:13).

>> Rely on God’s sure promise, not on your feelings.

By faith declare that you are saved by the death of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins (Titus 3:5, John 20:31). Openly confess Him as your Lord and Savior (Romans 10:9-10).

If you have not yet received Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, we would encourage you to do so right now in the quietness of your own heart in a prayer like this: Dear God, I admit that I have sinned. I believe that You sent Your Son, Jesus, to take the punishment I deserve. Then You raised Him to life again, so that I may have eternal life. I turn now from my sins and ask You to forgive me. Please come into my life and be my Savior and Lord. In Jesus’ name, amen.

The Bible is full of wonderful assurances and promises for all who believe in Jesus Christ, the Son of God. But each person must accept Jesus as his own Savior before he can claim these promises personally. How can these promises be yours? The Bible says that you must...

>> Recognize that you cannot be saved by trying to be good, or by doing the best you can, or by being a member of a social or religious organization. God says that we are not saved by our good works (Ephesians 2:8-9). >> Confess that you cannot save yourself, that you are a guilty sinner worthy of God’s righteous judgment, and that you are hopelessly lost without the Lord Jesus Christ as your personal Savior (Romans 10:9-10). >> Believe the good news that Christ died for the ungodly (Romans 5:8). He therefore died for you and settled your sin debt by His death on Calvary’s cross.

Believe the good news that Christ was raised from the dead and now lives to save all who will come to Him in faith (Hebrews 7:25).

>> Call on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ with a sincere desire to be saved from your sins. For God has promised that “whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved” (Romans 10:13).

>> Rely on God’s sure promise, not on your feelings.

By faith declare that you are saved by the death of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins (Titus 3:5, John 20:31). Openly confess Him as your Lord and Savior (Romans 10:9-10).
