What is Salvation?
Salvation is a gift from God. When we choose to confess that Jesus is Lord, and believe that God raised him from death to life, God rescues us from the kingdom of darkness, and transfers us to His kingdom. We are set free penalty of sin (eternal separation from God), and being brought into a new life with Him.
Why do we need it?
We have all have sinned and fallen short of God’s perfect standard. Without help, we remain separated from Him and face the eternal consequence of that separation.
How does it happen?
God is holy and just, sin cannot simply be ignored. God provided a way: in Jesus Christ, who lived perfectly, died for our sins and rose from the dead, we are offered forgiveness and new life. Our part: we respond by faith (trusting Jesus), repentance (turning from our own way), and committing to follow Him.
What does salvation bring?
We are made new! We are forgiven, adopted into God’s family, reconciled to Him. We are restored to the true identity God has for us. God gives us the Holy Spirit to live inside us, and by the Holy Spirit's leading and power, we begin to live in freedom from sin’s control, and begin a journey of growth into what God has made us to be. Living in His Kingdom from now until eternity And it points towards eternal life: one day we will fully live in God’s presence, free of all brokenness.
What can you do now?
Invite Jesus to be the Lord of your life (trust Him as both Lord and Saviour). Confess your need, ask for forgiveness, and commit to follow Him If you’re not sure what to pray, start with this Father, thank You that You see me and love me. I admit that I’ve tried to do life my own way, and today I choose to surrender to You. I believe that Jesus died for me and rose again so that I could be forgiven and free. Please forgive my sin, wash me clean, and fill me with Your Spirit. From this day forward, I choose to follow You and trust You with my life. Help me to know You more, walk in Your ways, and live out the purpose You’ve placed in me. Thank You, Jesus, I’m Yours. Amen.
