How Do I Become Saved?

The Roman Road to Salvation

Romans 3:10 (All Have Sinned)

“As it is written: There is no one righteous, not even one;”

Romans 3:23 (All Have Sinned)

“for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,”

Romans 5:12 (Sin’s Penalty)

“Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all men, because all sinned.”

Romans 6:23 (Sin’s Penalty)

“For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in [1] Christ Jesus our Lord.”

Romans 5:8 (Christ Paid the Penalty)

“But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”

 Romans 10:9, 10 (Salvation through Faith)

“That 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.”

For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved.

Romans 10:13 (Salvation through Faith)

“for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”

If you have received Jesus Christ as your Saviour, as a Christian you should:

1.        Read your Bible every day to get to know Christ better. “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” (2 Timothy 2:15) “Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.” (Psalms 119:105)

2.       Talk to God in prayer every day. “And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.” (Matthew 21:22) “Be careful for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.” (Philippians 4:6)

3.       Be baptized, worship, fellowship, and serve with other Christians in a church where Christ is preached and the Bible is the final authority. “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:” (Matthew 28:19) “Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.” (Hebrews 10:25) “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:” (2 Timothy 3:16)

4.      Tell others about Christ. “And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.” (Mark 16:15) “For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!” (1 Corinthians 9:16) “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.” (Romans 1:16)
