“I tell you the truth, whoever hears what I say and believes in the One who sent Me has eternal life.” - John 5:24
"How do I get to heaven?"
As cliche as it sounds, it makes sense knowing that death may come anytime.
Three steps to be eternally saved and to be with God in heaven:
Admit.
Human as we are, we are not perfect. We commit mistakes over and over again. The Bible reminds us that we, by nature, are sinners. Romans 3:23 says, “For all have sinned, and fall short of the glory of God.”
“As it is written, there is none righteous, no, not one.” - Romans 3:10
Be Aware and Believe.
Know the penalty of sin. Believe that Jesus Christ died on the cross and rose again for our salvation.
Romans 6:23 confirms, “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”
Repent and Receive.
(This is personal. One has to do this heartfelt. If you are reading, this is for you.)
Pray & repent of any sin. Accept Jesus Christ in your heart as your personal Saviour and Lord.
For it is written in John 1:12, “Yet to all who did receive Him, to those who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God.”
Romans 10:9, “If you declare with your mouth, Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.”
Invite God to come into your heart and life as your Lord and Saviour. Now is the day of your salvation.
Friend, once saved, always saved.
Pray this prayer from your heart:
Dear Jesus,
I am a sinner in need of a Saviour. Forgive me for all the sins that I commited. I repent of them all. Come into my heart Lord Jesus. I accept You as the Lord and Saviour of my life. I commit my life to you. Be in full control of it. Thank you Lord.
This I pray, in Your Name Lord Jesus, Amen!
