This is Good News


Jesus knocks at the door of your heart

I want each reader to know that God loves you and has given you the gift of salvation. He holds it out to you. It is yours for the asking.
"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)

We are all sinners and we all need a Saviour
"All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" (Romans 6:23)

Without Christ we are all lost
For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 6:23)

Jesus Christ is the only way to be saved.
Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved." (Acts 4:12)

"Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me" (John 14:6)

We Must Receive Christ
"As many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name" (John 1:12)

We Receive Christ Through Faith
'By grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God' not as a result of works that no one should boast" (Ephesians 2:8,9)

When We Receive Christ, We Experience a New Birth
Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a member of the Jewish ruling council. He came to Jesus at night and said, "Rabbi, we know you are a teacher who has come from God. For no one could perform the miraculous signs you are doing if God were not with him." In reply Jesus declared, "I tell you the truth, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again. " "How can a man be born when he is old?" Nicodemus asked. "Surely he cannot enter a second time into his mother's womb to be born!" Jesus answered, "I tell you the truth, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit. Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit. You should not be surprised at my saying, 'You must be born again.' The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit."

You Can Receive Christ Now by Faith Through Prayer

Does this prayer express the desire of your heart?
Lord Jesus I need You. Thank You for dying on the cross for my sins. I open the door of my life and receive You as my Savior and Lord. Thank You for forgiving my sins and giving me eternal life. Take control of the throne of my life. Make me the kind of person You want me to be.

If it does, I invite you to pray this prayer right now, and Christ will come into your life, as He promised.

Now That You Have Received Christ let us know. In fact ask God to help you share His gift with others. It is the natural longing of the heart when you have been saved, to desire to share the good news.
