In the beginning God created man in his own image, with a pure heart and a clear conscience, to have fellowship with him. But man disobeyed God, and sin entered his heart. And sin separated us from God's glory, for He created us without any single sin.
But God loved us so much that, despite our sins, He sent his beloved Son Jesus to suffer for our healing and to die for the forgiveness of our sins. Jesus, the perfect Lamb of God, offered himself and paid the price with his death, burial, and resurrection to save us from the power of sin and eternal damnation, and so that we may enter his Kingdom.
The Bible says in Romans 6:23 that “the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Now it's up to us to believe in Jesus and desire a new life to follow God's holy ways, not the sinful ways of the world..
What are the steps for you to be saved from the power of sin and enter the Kingdom of God?
● You must believe that Jesus is the Son of God who shed his blood for our sins, was buried, and rose again on the third day.
● You must repent wholeheartedly from all wrong, and submit to God to receive a tender heart and follow his ways.
● You must be immersed in water in the name of Jesus for the forgiveness of sins. You must die and bury your old self in the water, and resurrect in a new life to follow Jesus and his words.
● You must receive and be filled with the Holy Spirit, which is the glory, presence, and power of God. It is, in fact, the same Spirit of God and of Jesus who will enable you to live a holy life, perform the same miraculous works that Jesus performed on Earth, and boldly proclaim the Good News of what Jesus did in your life and for all humanity. God will give you a hunger to be constantly filled with his Spirit, to dwell in and obey his Word, to love everyone, and to forgive those who hurt you.
○ For God so loved the world that He gave his only Son that whoever believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. (John 3:16)
○ When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?” Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off—for all whom the Lord our God will call.” (Acts 2:37-39)
Sin separates us from God, but God's desire is to be reconciled to you. He took the first step by sending us his beloved Son. What are you going to do about it? It's your decision. He loves you and is waiting for you to surrender your life to follow Jesus wholeheartedly.
○ Jesus answered, “I am the Way and the Truth and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” (John 14:6)
