A Changed Life
The greatest single need in any person's life is to be loved. God offers us His
love in the Person of His Son, Jesus Christ. It is a free offer that can be
accepted or refused.
"For God so loved the world that He gave his one
and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal
life." John 3:16 NIV
When Jesus died on the cross at the Passover, He was the picture of the Passover
lamb. In the story of Moses and the children of Israel in Egypt, whoever had the
blood of the Passover lamb on the door of their house was spared when the Death
Angel came. He was also the picture of the blood sacrifice (a legal payment) for
sin, which separates us from God.
"But the wages of sin is death, but the free
gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." Romans 6:23 NIV
Anyone can believe and receive the sacrifice made by Jesus and become a child of
God.
Yet to all who received Him, to those who
believe in His name, He gave the right to become children of God—children born
not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband's will, but born of
God." John 1:12,13 NIV
The result is A CHANGED LIFE.
"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new
creation; the old has gone, the new has come!" 2 Corinthians 5:17 NIV
The way to receive this new life is through prayer, or talking to God. You can
ask Christ to be your Savior by praying the following prayer:
Lord, I am a sinner and I am sorry for my sin. With your help, I am willing to
turn from my sin. I ask you to forgive me. I receive Jesus Christ as my Savior;
and I confess Him as my Lord. From now on I want to follow Him in the fellowship
of His Church. In Jesus' name. Amen.
