First of all, let’s define SALVATION. Salvation is the state of being saved. It is deliverance from the consequences of sin. Now, that doesn’t mean you won’t reap what you sow. That just means that anyone who has repented and made peace with God shouldn’t fear death. Some people think that once they become saved, they will no longer experience trials and tribulations. Not so. You will still go through some things. You will still be under attack by the enemy, because he’s going to do everything he can to get you back into his grips. Watch your back. He’s a snake, for real, and will use anybody and anything to get you back.
So how do we get saved? Pray the Prayer of Salvation, which is:
“Lord Jesus, I repent of my sins and surrender my life. Wash me clean. I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. That He died on the cross for my sins and rose again on the third day for my Victory. I believe that in my heart and make confession with my mouth, that Jesus is my Savior and Lord. I receive eternal life, in Jesus name, Amen.”
It’s just that simple. Then continue to read the Bible, pray, believe God and have faith in Him. Being saved means your sins will no longer be counted against you in the eternal death sentence column. Instead, your sins will be forgiven through God’s grace and mercy and you will be given the gift of eternal life with HIM.
