“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:”- John 1:12

Is Jesus Christ Your Saviour?

THE ONE SAVIOURMy friend, are you saved? Saved is a Bible word, not a term thought up by man. I have been a Christian for almost twenty years, and I find that most people still do not have an understanding of God's message of salvation.First, you must believe there is one true God. Secondly, you must believe that God can do something for you, and He has recorded His plan of redemption in the Bible. The only God that can save souls is the God of the Bible. His name is the Lord Jesus Christ. The Bible says in 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."A person is saved by putting their complete trust in Jesus Christ, not by doing something to earn heaven. Trusting is believing. Believing must come from the heart, not the head. Do you love and trust your spouse with your head or with your heart?Plato, Aristotle, or Einstein could only think as far as their finite minds were able. They could not even solve the problems of this life, such as sickness, disease, pain, hunger, and death, let alone know anything about eternity. God knew we needed something to go by, so He put everything there is to know in His Bible.

THE ONE SINNERHave you ever sinned? Just once? One lie? One theft? Once is enough, for God says in Romans 3:23, "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;" The Bible says in Romans 5:12, "Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:” So you and I, like our father, Adam, are born sinners. We

have not obeyed all of God's commandments. Your guilt as a sinner is shown by the fact that you will eventually die. The Bible states, "The soul that sinneth, it shall die..." (Ezekiel 18:20)A saved sinner has their sins forgiven by faith in Jesus. An unsaved sinner still bears their sins when they die. No one gets into heaven with their sins! Nothing unclean gets into heaven. This creates a problem! How do you get rid of your sins? Are your sins adding up day by day? Are they too much to even keep up with anymore? Are you saying, "What's the use"? Jesus says in Matthew 11:28, "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." Could you say that to someone and mean it? No? Well, Jesus Christ can!

THE ONE SOLUTIONJesus Christ was not conceived the same way you and I were. He was born of a virgin. The Bible says in Matthew 1:23, "Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us." Because Jesus is God, His blood was sinless. Jesus died on a cross to pay for your sins. "...while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." (Romans 5:8) "In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:" (Colossians 1:14)The Bible says, "...without shedding of blood is no remission." (Hebrews 9:22) Our blood is polluted by sin, so it could not be shed to take away our sin. The blood of Jesus can take away all of your sins, because He is sinless, and His blood is pure. His blood can remove your sins as far as the east is from the west. God said He would remember them no more! Isn't that good news! Wouldn't you want that?

THE ONE SIN.Please hear this. People do not go to hell for their sins. They go to hell for rejecting Jesus Christ as their Sin Bearer, their Substitute, and the One who died in their place for their sins. "He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God." (John 3:18) Jesus knew how many sins you would commit, but He said He loved you and died for you. Would you right now just pray to God and trust Jesus Christ as your Saviour? Romans 10:9 states, "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." It's your decision.

If you will accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour, please pray with all your heart: Dear Lord, I now realize that I am a sinner and that You died for me. I repent of my sin, and ask You to now come into my heart, save me, and take me to heaven when I die. Thank You, Lord, for saving me. In Jesus' name, Amen.
