How to Be Saved

GOD is holy and just. Though merciful and gracious He will by no means clear the guilty. He has said, The wages of sin is death. (Rom. 6:2323For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (Romans 6:23).) How then can anyone be saved, for all have sinned, and all deserve to die the second death?
Scripture declares, Without shedding of blood is no remission. Sin must be atoned for.
Jesus gave Himself a ransom for all. He paid the ransom price and it has been accepted. Justice is satisfied, not by what you have done, but by what Christ has done for you. Because Jesus paid the price, God invites you to accept a free, full and present salvation.
It is a wonder that any remain in their sins when God has shown so clearly and fully in His Word how salvation is to be obtained. If you wish to be saved, hear what God says to you in the following verses: For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (John 3:1616For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (John 3:16).)
Salvation can only be had by faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
