If you happened to die today, do you know if you will go to heaven? Jesus said you must be born again (John 3:1-15). He was talking about a necessary spiritual birth. Because we inherited a sin nature, we entered this world physically alive but spiritually dead.

That part of us that God created to have a relationship with Him must be brought to life. We cannot save ourselves or produce the spiritual life we need (Ephesians 2:8-9). Only Jesus, the Son of God and sinless Savior of the world, can do that.

How can you discover Jesus and be born again? The Bible gives us a simple A-B-C plan. 

A = Admit that you are a sinner who needs a Savior.

The Bible says in Romans 3:23, "All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God."

B = Believe that Jesus died to pay the penalty for your sins and rose from the dead.

The Bible says in Romans 10:9, "If you will confess with you mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised him from the dead, you will be saved."

C =  Call upon the name of the Lord for your salvation.

Again, the Bible says in Romans 10:13, "For whoever calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."

God loves you more than you can imagine (John 3:16; Romans 5:8). That is why He provided a way for you to be in relationship with Him. You can know for sure that your sins are forgiven and that heaven is your eternal destiny (1 John 5:13-14). The best way to call upon the name of the Lord for salvation is by prayer, which is suggested below.

Dear God, I am sorry for breaking your commandments and for the things I have done wrong in my life.  I ask for your forgiveness and now turn from everything that I know displeases you. Thank you for sending your Son Jesus to die on the cross for my sins and set me free. Please come into my life, fill me with your Holy Spirit, help me live for You, and be with me forever. Amen.

If you prayed in faith, believing in Jesus Christ as your Savior, please let us know. Like the angels of heaven, we rejoice and welcome you into the family of God. Also, we are here to help you get started in your journey with Jesus.
