Listen from:
WHY? Because Jesus has died and risen again. On this basis you can be saved, and on no other. If you are to be saved, your sin's heavy load must be removed. If sin's heavy load must be removed, sin's penalty must be borne. If sin's penalty must be borne then Jesus must die, for sin's penalty is death. "Your sins are forgiven you" not for your work's sake not for your morality's sake but for "His name's sake." 1 John 2:1212I write unto you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name's sake. (1 John 2:12).
WHERE? The answer is simple: Anywhere. Mercy flows today, not through some shrine in a holy city, nor through the fingertips of some holy hands, but from a victorious and ascended Christ in heaven. He is accessible anywhere. Reach out to Him. In other words, believe on Him, and you shall be saved.
HOW? By faith, and by faith alone. Scripture is definite on this point. Salvation is not by works, nor by faith and works combined, but by faith alone. "Not of works, lest any man should boast." Eph. 2:99Not of works, lest any man should boast. (Ephesians 2:9).
WHEN? There is only one wise answer: Now. Be careful that you do not lose your soul over the little question when! "Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation." 2 Cor. 6:22(For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succored thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.) (2 Corinthians 6:2). Come to Jesus NOW.
