The Plan of Salvation

1. God Loves You

The Bible teaches that God created us and loves us deeply. He desires a relationship with every person.

John 3:16 — “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.”

2. All Have Sinned

Every person has sinned and fallen short of God's perfect standard. Sin separates us from God and prevents us from saving ourselves.

Romans 3:23 — “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.”

3. The Penalty of Sin

Sin brings spiritual death and separation from God.

Romans 6:23 — “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”

4. Christ Died for Our Sins

Jesus Christ died on the cross to pay the penalty for our sins and rose again from the dead. Through His sacrifice we can be forgiven.

Romans 5:8 — “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.”

5. Salvation Is Received by Faith

Salvation is not earned through good works. It is a free gift received by repentance and faith in Jesus Christ.

Ephesians 2:8–9 — “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.”

6. Call Upon the Lord

Anyone who believes in Jesus Christ and calls upon Him for salvation can receive eternal life today.

Romans 10:9 — “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.”
