Let's make things right while we still have time.

Gods Plan for Salvation

“THE WAY BACK”

Step 1 to this Discovery is recognizing GOD'S DESIGN ABUNDANT LIFE

God loves you just as you are there is no need to make and attempt to clean up you act. First of all He already knows everything you have done and Yes, He still loves you and desires that you experience Joy, Peace, and the abundant life. This life is in God's only begotten Son, Jesus Christ Our Lord!

The Bible Says.... in John 3:16

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believth in him should not perish, But have Everlasting Life.

John 11:25

Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: He that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live.

John 10:10
.....I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

Sin keeps us from experiencing the Joy, Peace, and the Abundant Life that God has planned for us.

What is sin you ask?

It is separation from God. Lets look in to it in step 2

Step 2 is Recognizing MAN'S PROBLEM - SEPARATION FROM GOD!

God Created man in HIS own image and made him a free mortal agent.
God didn't want robots worshiping him but gave them Freedom of Choice.
Man made the choice to disobey God.
Man's rebellion against God is called Sin.
Man then is a Sinner by Will and Freedom of Choice.
Men choose to disobey God and go his own Selfish ways!
Man still makes this Choice today.
This results in SEPARATION FROM GOD, in HELL FOREVER!

The Bible Says... in Romans 3:23

· For all have sinned and come short of the Glory of God.

Romans 6:23

· For the wages of Sin is Death; But the gift of God is Eternal Life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Man through the Years has tried to Bridge this Gap Without Success...

There is only one Solution to this Problem of Separation.

Step 3 is Recognizing GOD'S SOLUTION - THE CROSS!

Our Lord JESUS CHRIST is the ONLY SOLUTION

to the problem "separation from God".

When our Lord Jesus Christ suffered and Died on the Cross,
He paid the Penalty of Sin once and for all.

Your Sins are washed away never to be remembered again.

Jesus Bridged the Gap from GOD to man.

The Bible Says... in Romans 5:8

But God commendeth His love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ Died for us.

Also in John 14:6

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: No Man cometh unto the father, but by me.

Then in Ephesians 2:8,9

For by Grace are ye saved through faith; and it is not of yourselves: it is a gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.

God has provided in Jesus Christ the ONLY way of salvation...

Man must make the choice to receive God's Solution.

Step 4 is MAN'S RESPONSE - RECEIVE CHRIST AS PERSONAL SAVIOR or Not

We must make up our mind and decide

Will we Trust in Jesus or not?

Each one of us must decide for our self,

Do we have Faith and Trust in THE LORD JESUS CHRIST?

If so then invite him into your Heart to stay

and develop a Personal relationship with Him.

Here is how It's done.

The Bible Says... in Revelation 3:20
Behold I stand at the door and knock: If any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in and Sup with him, and he with me.

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

Romans 10:13
For whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.

Is there any good reason why you cannot accept this offer?

What offer you may ask.

Make Jesus Christ your Own personal Lord and Savior?

Whose side are you on Man’s or God’s?

OK, what’s next?

1. Admit your need (I am a Sinner)
2. Be willing to turn from Sin (Repent)
3. Believe that Jesus Christ Died for you (On the Cross)
4. Through Prayer, accept and receive Jesus Christ as your Personal Lord and Savior

A Suggested Prayer of Commitment:

Dear Father God,
I know that I am a Sinner and need your Forgiveness.
I believe that your Son Jesus Christ Died in my Place, Paying the Penalty for all my Sins.
I am willing to turn away from Sin.
I now invite Jesus Christ to come into my Heart and Life as my own Personal Savior.
I am willing by your Help to follow and Obey Jesus Christ as the Lord of My Life!

Amen

My Personal Decision:

On the ____ Day of _____________, 2012,

I __________________________ Received Jesus Christ as my Personal Savior.

What’s next?
1. Pray Daily

2. Read The Bible Daily! (Start off with the Book of John it's easy to understand)

3. Go to a Good Bible believing Church where God's Word is preached!

4. Tell others about the Decision you made!

5. Tell others about the Good News that Jesus Christ can save them too!

John 3:1-21 (New International Version)

Jesus Teaches Nicodemus

1Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a member of the Jewish ruling council.2He came to Jesus at night and said, "Rabbi, we know you are a teacher who has come from God. For no one could perform the miraculous signs you are doing if God were not with him."3In reply Jesus declared, "I tell you the truth, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again. "4"How can a man be born when he is old?" Nicodemus asked. "Surely he cannot enter a second time into his mother's womb to be born!"5Jesus answered, "I tell you the truth, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit.6Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit.7You should not be surprised at my saying, 'You must be born again.'8The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit."9"How can this be?" Nicodemus asked.10"You are Israel's teacher," said Jesus, "and do you not understand these things?11I tell you the truth, we speak of what we know, and we testify to what we have seen, but still you people do not accept our testimony.12I have spoken to you of earthly things and you do not believe; how then will you believe if I speak of heavenly things?13No one has ever gone into heaven except the one who came from heaven--the Son of Man.14Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the desert, so the Son of Man must be lifted up,15that everyone who believes in him may have eternal life.16"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.17For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.18Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only Son.19This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil.20Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that his deeds will be exposed.21But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what he has done has been done through God."

How Deep The Father's Love For Us

Psalm 80 (with text - press on more info.)

Psalm 80 (New International Version)

Psalm 80

For the director of music. To the tune of "The Lilies of the Covenant." Of Asaph. A psalm.

1 Hear us, O Shepherd of Israel, you who lead Joseph like a flock; you who sit enthroned between the cherubim, shine forth
2 before Ephraim, Benjamin and Manasseh. Awaken your might; come and save us.

3 Restore us, O God; make your face shine upon us, that we may be saved.

4 O LORD God Almighty, how long will your anger smolder against the prayers of your people?

5 You have fed them with the bread of tears; you have made them drink tears by the bowlful.

6 You have made us a source of contention to our neighbors, and our enemies mock us.

7 Restore us, O God Almighty; make your face shine upon us, that we may be saved.

8 You brought a vine out of Egypt; you drove out the nations and planted it.

9 You cleared the ground for it, and it took root and filled the land.

10 The mountains were covered with its shade, the mighty cedars with its branches.

11 It sent out its boughs to the Sea, [a] its shoots as far as the River. [b]

12 Why have you broken down its walls so that all who pass by pick its grapes?

13 Boars from the forest ravage it and the creatures of the field feed on it.

14 Return to us, O God Almighty! Look down from heaven and see! Watch over this vine,

15 the root your right hand has planted, the son [c] you have raised up for yourself.

16 Your vine is cut down, it is burned with fire; at your rebuke your people perish.

17 Let your hand rest on the man at your right hand, the son of man you have raised up for yourself.

18 Then we will not turn away from you; revive us, and we will call on your name.

19 Restore us, O LORD God Almighty; make your face shine upon us, that we may be saved.
