you want to receive the salvation that is available through Jesus, you

The Plan of Salvation
The
honest truth is that there is only one way to heaven and that is
through the Lord, Jesus Christ. Simply reciting a prayer or doing what
you think will get you there will not. You have to be willing to accept Jesus into your life. Below
are the steps to take in order to obtain salvation. You will be able to
reference all Scripture from the King
James Bible. At the end of the page, you will have the knowledge you
need to be saved, it is solely up to you whether or not you choose to
do so. I pray that God will work in your heart to enable you to
understand these truths and welcome you into the kingdom of God.You Must Realize What A Sin Is
A sin means more than just doing something one knows is wrong. A sin is any thought, behavior, or action that is willfully commited. Sometimes we can sin unknowingly, but that does not mean that we are off the hook. Regardless of any type of sin we commit we all face consequences for them.
You Must Realize God's Price on Sin
God's price on all sin is death.Romans 6:23 states: "For the wages of sin is death;"
Revelation 20:14 states: "And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death."
You Must Realize That You Are A Sinner Too
Romans 3:23 states: "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;" Since the beginning of creation when Adam and Eve sinned by eating the forbidden fruit we have been penalized and are all born into sin. To learn more of Adam and Eve's sin and the consequences we all face due to it, please read Genesis Chapter 3.
You Must Realize That Jesus Pays For Your Sins
Romans 5:8 states: "But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." Jesus Offers The Gift of Salvation
Romans 6:23 states "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." 1 John 5:13 states: "These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God."
How To Receive Salvation
The only way to receive the gift of salvation is by accepting Jesus Christ into your life.Romans 10:9-10 states "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation."
Romans 10:11-13 "For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."
Are You Ready to Receive The Gift Of Salvation?
Accept the following statements to be true.1. I believe that Jesus is the Son of God and that He is the only way to heaven.
2. I realize that I am a sinner and fall short of the glory of God.
3. I realize that Jesus paid the price for my sins.
4. I realize that salvation is a gift from God through Jesus.
Now if you believe that the following statements are true pray this prayer:
Dear God,
I recognize that I have sinned and fallen short of receiving the gift of salvation.
I believe with all of my heart that Your son, Jesus died for me and paid my wages for the sins that I have committed. Please forgive me Jesus, for all of my sins and allow me the salvation that you have graciously given to those who accept You. I have complete trust in You and from this moment on I will depend on You for my salvation. In Jesus name, I pray....Amen.
Now, if you just said this prayer and it was truly from your heart then you have the Gift of Salvation. That means that you are now enjoying eternal life with our Savior Jesus Christ even if you never do anything else for Him.

What's Next?
Congrats to you on obtaining your salvation! So, what should you do next?1. Get Baptized. Find a Bible based church, that is a church that follows the teachings of the New Testament, the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ, the only begotten Son of God and get baptized.
2. Find A Church. Join a Bible based church, one that believes in Salvation by grace and teaches it to others, get active in the church, you are not expected to do much, just get involved and everything else will follow.
3. Teach Others How to Get Saved. Once you get baptized and join a church you will grow a little day by day and before you know it you will be teaching others the Gospel of Christ and that is what Jesus commanded us all to do.
This is known as The Great Commission that Jesus commanded of all His disciples (Christ followers), get saved, get baptized, train to teach others.
