Salvation
Maybe you’ve been hurt, made some bad decisions, or feel lost, and you find yourself asking, “What’s the point?”
Well, Jesus knows your pain, and He wants to be there with you through everything you’re facing. You can choose to have a relationship with Him—to receive His love and grace. It will be the best decision you ever make and will change your life like nothing else!
Jesus wants you to know Him. He wants to be your advocate, your provider, your best friend. He also has a plan for your life and wants to help you as you walk through it. In fact, in Jeremiah 29:11 He says that He has amazing plans for you—“plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
And the Bible says that God loves you so much that He gave His only Son, Jesus Christ, so that you may have eternal life with Him!
The problem is that we are human and have all made mistakes (Romans 3:23). Big or small, the Bible calls these mistakes “sin,” and sin separates us from a relationship with God and ultimately leads to death (Romans 6:23).
But there is good news! Through Christ, there is hope. Jesus is waiting with open arms to save you; all you need to do is come to Him (the Bible calls this repentance), and He will completely forgive you.
When you do this, you give Jesus all your brokenness, and in return He gives you everything He has for you: His righteousness, peace, and healing for your heart, a restored relationship with Him, and a new beginning in life.
God created you… He designed you in His image! And before you were even born, Jesus died for you—to save you from all your sin: past, present, and future. He knew the choices you would make, and He chose to save you anyway.
No matter what you’ve done or what you’ve been through, He deeply loves you and wants to have a real and genuine relationship with you.
Jesus is the perfect Son of God (without any fault), and yet He chose to take all our sin and die for us—for you! Then God raised Him from the dead, and He became the only way to be saved.
Knowing Jesus is simply recognizing your need for Him, believing that He died and rose again for you… and inviting Him to be your friend, your advocate, your Savior.
READY FOR YOUR NEW BEGINNING?
If you are ready to begin a new life with Jesus leading you and to experience His true peace and joy in your life, say this simple prayer out loud:
WHAT IS THE NEW BIRTH?
If you prayed this prayer in faith, you have been born again.
You may not feel anything different right now, but something powerful has happened in your spirit. The Bible declares that you are now a new creation in Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17).
Your past has been forgiven, your spirit has been made new, and you have begun a completely new life with God.
Now an important process begins: renewing your mind. This happens as you come to know and believe the Word of God. As you learn, you grow, and your life begins to reflect the truth of what has already taken place within you.
