Plan of Salvation

OK all, for anyone who doesn’t know, has questions about it, or just wants to hear it again, this is the plan of salvation. Lets call it the road to God. The Roman Road to God.

In Romans 3:23 God says “For all have sinned and fall short of the Glory of God.” That means that God has set a standard, and every one of us failed the test. You, me, Billy Graham... everyone.

Romans 6:23 gives us two things to know. Here’s the first...”The wages of sin is death.” And remember, we just found out we all sinned. So what now? Well the second part gives us a glimmer of hope. “But the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” Whow, back the truck up, did he just say gift? As in something I get for free? Yes! That’s what it says. Wanna find out more about this gift? Keep walking down the road.

Romans 5:8 lets us know that “God showed his love for us in that, while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” That’s important. Jesus died to pay for the sins we committed. That’s the gift he gave. He paid the wages of sin, and hung on a cross and died. For this reason Jesus doesn’t wait for us to get our lives all straightened out and then come to him. He wants us as we are. He wants us Now.

So what do we do now? what’s it take to come to him? The last leg of our journey takes us to Romans 10:9.......

“If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved (from death).”(parentheses mine)

Plain and simply, just believe in him, and don’t deny him to everyone else.

If you want this gift of eternal life, just ask for it. God isn’t looking for someone who does good things. God is looking for people who will admit that Jesus is His only begotten Son, and is the only way to heaven. Right where you are you can ask him to forgive you for your sins, and He will.
