The ABC's of Salvation

A All have sinned and come short of the glory of God- Romans 3:23
This means that no matter who you are and no matter how successful you are, your goodness will not justify you in the final judgement. Isaiah declares this as follows:
Isa 64:6 But we are all as an unclean [thing], and all our righteousnesses [are] as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away. Titus also declares the same idea:
Tts 3:5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;
B. God sent his Son to die for our sins and provide a way to enter heaven. (he loves you and has a plan for your life.)
John 3:16, 17
Jhn 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Jhn 3:17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
C. Accept the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross and invite him into your life. Just like the jailer in the book of Acts:
Act 16:30 And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?
Act 16:31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.
Act 16:32 And they spake unto him the word of the Lord, and to all that were in his house.
Act 16:33 And he took them the same hour of the night, and washed [their] stripes; and was baptized, he and all his, straightway.
Act 16:34 And when he had brought them into his house, he set meat before them, and rejoiced, believing in God with all his house.
So while there is yet time, make your decision now before it is forever too late.
