I Need a Savior

In John 14:6 it says, "Jesus answered, "I am the way and truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." This verse clearly states that Jesus Christ is the way, is the truth, is the life, and is the only way to get through the gates of Heaven. When you have Jesus Christ, you also have the Holy Spirit that dwells in your heart and the characteristics which is in Galatians 5:22-23. It says, "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patienc, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law."



Decide today to put your faith and trust in Jesus Christ. In 2 Corinthians 5:17 says, "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!" Amen!! Be remade and live a new life again and by doing so, live for God. Here are four simple steps and a prayer to help you be "NEW" in Christ.

1. Admit you are a sinner.(Romans 3:23, Romans 5:12, John 1:10)
2. Be willing to turn from sin. (REPENT)(Luke 13:5, Acts 17:30)
3. Believe that Jesus Christ died for you, was buried, and rose from the dead. (John 3:16, Romans 5:8, Romans 10:9)
4. Through prayer, invite Jesus into your life to become your personal Savior,(Romans 10:10, Romans 10:13)

Prayer:
Dear God, I admit to You I am a sinner and need of Your forgiveness. I truly believe that You sent Your one and only Son, who is Jesus Christ to shed His precious blood on the cross for my sins. I am willing and need of Your help to turn from my sins. I can't do this by myself, so I am inviting Jesus Christ to come into my heart and life, as my personal Savior. Thank You God for His death, His burial, and His resurrection. Thank You for Your mercy, Your grace, and Your love.  In Jesus name I pray Amen!
