Salvation

Want to know Christ for yourself?
If you do, please take a walk with me down the “Romans Road

The ROMANS ROAD is a pathway you can walk. It is a group of Bible verses from the book of Romans in the New Testament. If you walk down this road you will end up understanding how to be saved.

Admit that you are a sinner.
Romans 3:23 – “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.
We all have sin in our hearts. We all were born with sin. We were born under the power of sin’s control.

Understand that you deserve death for your sin.
Romans 6:23 a – “…The wages of sin is death…
Sin has an ending. It results in death. We all face physical death, which is a result of sin. But a worse death is spiritual death that alienates us from God, and will last for all eternity. The Bible does plainly teach that there is a place called the Lake of Fire where lost people will be in torment forever. It is the place where people end up that remain spiritually dead.

Ask God to forgive you and save you.
Romans 6:23 b – “…But the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Salvation is a free gift from God to you! We can’t earn this gift, but we must reach out and receive it.

Give your life to God.
His love poured out in Jesus on the cross is your only hope to have forgiveness and change. His love bought you out of being a slave to sin. His love is what saves you. Not religion, or church membership. God loves you! And reaches you right where you are.
Romans 5:8 – “God demonstrates His own love for us, in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us!
When Jesus died on the cross He paid sin’s penalty. He paid the cosmic price for all sin, and when He took all the sins of the world on Himself on the cross, He bought us out of slavery to sin and death! The only condition is that we believe in Him and what He has done for us, understanding that we are now joined with Him, and that He is our life. Because He loved us and gave Himself for us!

Call out to God in the name of Jesus!
Romans 10:13 – “Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved!

If you know that God is knocking and you are convicted of your sin follow the instructions in:
Romans 10:9,10 – “…If you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Jesus from the dead, you shall be saved; for with the heart man believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation.

Also look up Acts 16:30-31 and John 3:16.

Believe in Him and ask Him to reveal Himself to you. Open the Bible to the gospel of John and read what God says about Jesus, about you, and about being born again. God will help you. He loves you. You need to look for a local church where God’s word is preached. The Bible says that we are to desire God’s word like a newborn baby desires mother’s milk.

Water baptism is one of the ways you first show that you have been joined to Jesus. The symbolism is this: When you go down in the water you show that You have been crucified and buried with Him, and when you come up out of the water you show that you have been raised to walk with Him in newness of life. (See Romans 6)

You have been born again. (See John 3) Your body has become God’s temple. Your heart is where He lives. Forgiveness is yours in Jesus. And you belong to Him. You were sin’s slave. But now…You are a child of GOD!

John 1:12 – “As many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name!
