Do You Know Him?

Receiving Jesus Christ as your personal Savior is the most important decision you will ever make.

TO RECEIVE CHRIST
1) You must acknowledge yourself to be a sinner in God's sight (Romans 3:23), unable to correct your condition by yourself (Ephesians 2:1-3 & 1 Corinthians 3:14) and in need of a Savior (Romans 3:24 & Romans 6:23).

2) You must believe that Jesus Christ died on the cross in your place in order to be the Savior you admit needing (1 Peter 3:18, Colossians 1:19-20, & Ephesians 2:4-7).

3) You must personally receive Jesus Christ into your life by faith (Ephesians 2:8-9), believing that He takes away sin (1 Peter 2:24).

4) Saving faith demands that you turn from sin. The Bible calls this repentance (Acts 17:30-31). Repentance is followed by public acknowledgment of your faith in Jesus Christ. This act is called confession (Romans 10:9).

5) This is a personal decision between you and God, but we would be happy to assist you in this eternally important matter.

WHAT TO PRAY
Dear Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner and need your forgiveness. I believe that you died for my sins. I want to turn from my sins. I now invite you to come into my heart and life. I want to trust and follow you as Lord and Savior. In Jesus' name, Amen.
