Have You Met Jesus?
For God says, “At just the right time, I heard you. On the day of salvation, I helped you.” Indeed, the “right time” is now. Today is the day of salvation!
II Corinthians 6:2
SALVATION: Your New Life Begins with God’s Love
CHRISTIANITY IS NOT A RELIGION. IT IS A RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN GOD AND YOU.
God loves you deeply and wants a personal relationship with you! The Love of Jesus Christ will sweep away your sin, loneliness, pain, and fear. He wants you to spend eternity in Heaven with Him, and the rest of your life on this earth walking with Him. If you would like to begin a new life—beyond your wildest dreams and be born again—pray the following prayer, and believe in your heart that God answers!
“Heavenly Father, I believe that Jesus Christ died on the cross for my sins and rose from the dead. His blood washes away my past, my sins; and prepares me for eternity. I receive Your forgiveness and accept Jesus as my Savior and Lord. From this day forward, I am Yours, in Jesus’ name. Amen!”

AS YOU GO FORWARD: Next Steps
As a believer, I encourage you to step out in faith and live every day as if it were your first day living for God. I also encourage you to do the following three things:
Read your Bible
The Bible has the answer to every problem that you could ever face. As you read and study, know that you have the same promises that God gave Abraham, David, and all of the great men and women in the Bible. You will find out exactly who you are and what you mean to Him. You will find out that He will never leave you or forsake you! You will be filled with strength and wisdom.
Get planted in church
By now you understand the power that comes from the church family. You don’t need to go to church to get into heaven, but you DO need to become equipped to fulfill God’s will for your life. In Luke 4:16, we find it was Jesus’ custom to go to church every week. If the Son of God made it His custom, how much more should we?
Tell Somebody
One of the most rewarding things I have ever found in my life is the opportunity to share with others what God has done for me. You don’t have to be a preacher. Just tell someone your simple story of God’s love and plant the seed of the gospel in someone’s life. You will be blessed, and so will they!
