STEPS FOR PEACE WITH GOD 1. Recognize GOD'S Plan - PEACE AND LIFE God Loves you and wants you to experience his peace and life. The Bible says ...."For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life". John 3:16 2. Realize our problem - SEPARATION People choose to disobey God and go their own way. This results in separation from God. The Bible says..."For All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God". Rom 3: 23 3. Respond to Gods Remedy - The Cross God sent his son to bridge the gap. Christ did this by
paying the penalty for our sins when he died on the cross and rose from the
grave. The Bible says…" God demonstrates his own love for us in this.
While we were still sinners, Christ died for us". Rom 5:8 4. Receive Christ – As Lord and Savior You cross the bridge into God’s family when you
prayerfully ask Christ to come into your life. The Bible says…"Yet to all
who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to
become children of God". John 1:12 How to Receive Christ 1. Admit your need ( I am a sinner) 2. Be willing to turn from your sins ( Repent) 3. Believe that Jesus Christ died for you on the cross and rose from the grave 4. Through prayer, invite Jesus Christ to come in and control your life through the Holy spirit (Receive him as Lord and Savior) Prayer of Commitment Dear Lord Jesus, I know I am a sinner and I need your forgiveness. I believe that you died for 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 |
