Acknowledge Your Sins: For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. Being justified by his grace through the redemption that us in Christ Jesus. You must first acknowledge that you are a sinner. Sin is transgression against the laws of God. It degrades and destroys us. For every sin committee, there is a consequence. "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." Romans 3:23-24

Repent of Your Sins: Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord. Acts 3:19

Repenting means death to the old man. It means turning away from the corruption of the world and placing oneself in the safety of God's arms. Repentance is not making a resolution to do better to try to be a better person. Repentance is not self torment. It is a change of heart which later results in a change in your life. Repentance tears up the stone filled heart and turns it into a heart of love. For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. By admitting our faults, we acknowledge our weakness and admit that we can not make it without Christ.

Believe in Jesus: 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. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Romans 10:9-10

Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is no other name under heaven given among men, whereby men must be saved. You must believe in Christ Jesus and receive him as your Savior by faith. You must believe that Jesus hung, bleed, and died, and was resurrected on the third day. You must believe that you are not your own, but you belong to Jesus Christ; mind, body, and soul in life and death. Acts 4:12

Jesus paid it all for our sins with his precious blood, which has set you free. Our sins were nailed to the cross. Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you shall be saved. For there is no other name above the name of Jesus Christ. He is the only true and living God. He is the only way. If you repented of your sins and believe in your heart that Jesus Christ died for you; then you have just received him as your personal Lord and Savior.
