THE ABC’s of the Gospel

Admit to God you have sinned.

Romans 3:23 “All have sinned and come short of the glory of God.”

Romans 3:10 “There is none righteousness, no not one.”

Believe that Jesus died for you and is willing to forgive you.

Romans 5:8 “But God proves His own love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us!”

Romans 10:9 “If you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.”

Confess your willingness to turn from your sin and commit to follow Jesus.

Acts 3:19a “Therefore repent and turn back, so that your sins may be wiped out…”

Matthew 16:24 “Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone wants to come with Me, he must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow Me.”

Romans 6:23b "But the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord."

Prayer: God, I know that I am a sinner and that I have broken your Law. Today I confess that I believe that your Son Jesus paid the price for my sin by dying on a cross. I am so believe He came back to life three days later. I am asking you to forgive my sins as I turn away from them and choose to follow your Son Jesus. Amen
