We are ALL sinners, born under the curse of fallen man. We are separated from God until we are BORN AGAIN through the grace of God and the power of the Holy Spirit.

John 3:3
Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

Jesus Christ is the ONLY door to Heaven.

Acts 4:12
Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

Jesus wants EVERYONE to be saved, He wants NO ONE left out.

2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

But it is not enough to just BELIEVE, you must RECEIVE. For example, a dying man may ADMIT that he is sick and may BELIEVE that medication will save him. But if he doesn't RECEIVE that medication into his body, his ADMISSION and BELIEF will not save him. It is the same with salvation. You may ADMIT you are a sinner, and BELIEVE Jesus Christ died for sinners, but if you do not RECEIVE Him into your heart and life, your ADMISSION and BELIEF will not save you. You must RECEIVE Him into your heart and life, live for Him according to His Word, seek His guidance, and allow Him to direct your paths.

John 1:12
But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name.

STEP 1 is to acknowledge that you have sinned.

Romans 3:10
As it is written, there is NONE righteous, no, NOT ONE.

Romans 3:23
For ALL have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.

STEP 2 is to realize that there is a penalty for your sin.

Romans 6:23a
For the wages of sin is DEATH...

The word "death" means separation. The death referred to here means eternal separation from God in the lake of fire as stated in Revelation 21:8, which says "But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death."

STEP 3 is to acknowledge that Jesus Christ already paid the penalty of sin for you.

Romans 5:8
But God commendeth His love toward us, in that, WHILE WE WERE YET SINNERS, Christ died for us.

STEP 4 is to acknowledge that Jesus Christ wants to give you the free gift of eternal life in Heaven.

Romans 6:23b
... but the GIFT of God is ETERNAL LIFE through Jesus Christ our Lord.

STEP 5 is that you must believe in Jesus Christ and ask Him to be your Savior.

Romans 10:9-10
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 10:13
For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord SHALL BE SAVED.

As you think on these truths, will you right now confess your sin to God and ask Jesus Christ to come into your heart and life? Then, attend a good, fundamental, Bible-believing church, publicly confess Jesus as your Savior, and follow Him in believer's baptism.

Romans 10:11
Whosoever believeth in Him shall not be ashamed.

Below is a sample of a sinner's prayer. There is no magic in these words, but the eternal change God effects in your heart and life will be supernatural. And all of Heaven will rejoice.

SINNER'S PRAYER
God, I know that I am a sinner. I know that I deserve the consequences of my sin, but could never pay my own sin debt. However, I am trusting in Jesus Christ as my Savior. I believe that His death and resurrection provided for my forgiveness, paid the penalty for my sin, and makes eternal life in Heaven possible. I trust in Jesus and Jesus alone as my personal Lord and Savior. Thank you Lord, for saving me and forgiving me right now. Amen.

Luke 15:7
I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance.

Jesus gave His life so that we might have forgiveness of sin, and rose from the dead so that we may have eternal life.
