- Recognize that your sins have caused you to be separated from God. Romans 3:23
- Understand that this separation results in a spiritual death, but that Jesus provided a means of reconciliation with God by dying on the cross for our sins. Jesus was raised from the dead and offers what He did for us a a gift. This gift provides strength for life here on earth and eternal life in heaven. Romans 6:23
- Accept the gift! When a gift is given, it must be received for the transaction to be complete. Simply acknowledge your sins in a prayer to God and tell Him you accept the gift of Jesus. Romans 10: 9 & 1
You can say a simple prayer like this- Dear God, I realize that I am a sinner and need the gift of Jesus' sacrifice and live in my life. Please forgive me and include me in your family. I put my life and soul in your hands. Thank you. Amen.
