SALVATION
Universal Call
God’s love, a universal gift, is available to all men and He is no respecter of persons. Everyone, believers and unbelievers alike, benefits from His love. This is evidenced by the fact the sun shines on the good and the evil, air is breathed by the godly and ungodly, the rain does not discriminate when it waters the land, and Jesus Christ died on the cross for all men. God’s love is full of grace, mercy, and compassion and His desire is that each of us make a decision to be in fellowship with Him by accepting Jesus Christ.
The Bible says in
Romans 3:23 “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;”
We may not all battle the same thing but make no mistake about it; we are all born battling a sinful nature. The great news is we have an advocate with God, and a way to escape the penalty of sin and death, because salvation was made possible through the Lord Jesus Christ. He shed His blood for our sins and through Him we can die to our old sinful nature and be born again in His righteous nature.
Simply, ask Jesus Christ into your life today and receive Him as your personal Lord and savior. The Bible tells us if you believe in your heart He is the only begotten Son of God, He died on the cross for your sins, and that He rose again from the grave, you can receive salvation. Simply confess your belief to Him right now the best way you know how. Ask forgiveness for your sins, and accept the free gift being offered which is salvation through Jesus Christ.
Don’t allow excuses and justifications to keep you from enjoying a meaningful and personal relationship with Jesus Christ!
Romans 10:9-10
You are not alone and each of us that have accepted Him came down this same road. It doesn’t matter what you have been struggling with, how long you have lived outside of His will, or how egregious your disobedience has been, He will receive you and will not turn you away.
John 6:37 “All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.”
