How Do You Get Saved?

Getting saved is not as difficult and confused as many may paint the picture to be. In fact, getting saved is a very good thing that changes your life to make you a person of better value and greater integrity.

You are saved from the negativity and all the bad things that this world has to offer. You are saved from going to hell, a place I am certain you don't want to go. But the main meaning for the term 'saved' is living a Christian lifestyle daily. This lifestyle symbolically represents how Jesus would life on an everyday basis.

According to 1 John 5:11-12, "God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life." Your eternal destination is all contingent on one thing--whether or not you have the Son of God. Not whether or not you have religion or Christianity, but whether you have a personal relationship with Jesus.

So how do you get Jesus? God's pretty clear about that. He says, for example, in John 3:36, "Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God's wrath remains on him." God's wrath is because of what we've done with the life. And whether you may believe this or not, Acts 2:21 tells us that "everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved."

This is a simple process.

Romans 10:9 says if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. THAT'S IT!

TRY IT.
