God's Simple Plan of Salvation
1. Realize that every person (including yourself) is a sinner.
(Romans 3:23, "For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.")
2. Realize that because the penalty for your sin is spiritual death, you are now condemned.
(Romans 6:23, "For the wages of sin is death ...")
3. Realize that you cannot save yourself from this judgment.
(Galations 2:16, "...for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.")
4. Realize that Jesus is able to save you, for he has paid the penalty of sin by his death on the cross.
(Romans 5:8, "...Christ died for us.")
5. Trust that Jesus Christ alone can save you from your sins.
(Romans 10:9, "if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.")
