God’s Simple Plan of Salvation
My Friend: I am asking you the most important question of life. Your joy or your sorrow for all
eternity depends upon your answer. The question is: Are you saved? It is not a question of how
good you are, nor if you are a church member, but are you saved?
Are you sure you will go to Heaven when you die? God says to go to Heaven, you must be born
again. In John 3:7, Jesus said to Nicodemus, “Ye must be born again.”
In the Bible God gives us the plan of how to be born again which means to be saved.
His plan is simple! You can be saved today. How? First, my friend, you must realize you are a sinner before a Holy God. “For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God”
(Romans 3:23).
Because you are a sinner, you are condemned to death. “For the wages [payment] of sin is death” (Romans 6:23). This includes eternal separation from God in Hell and outer darkness.
“ it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment” (Hebrews 9:27).
But God loved you so much He gave His only begotten Son, Jesus, to bear your sin and die in your place. “He hath made Him Jesus, “Who knew no sin] to be sin for us .
that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him” (2 Corinthians 5:21).
We become right in the eyes of God through Jesus Christ. Jesus had to shed His blood and die.
“For the life of the flesh is in the blood” (Lev. 17:11). “without shedding of blood is no
remission [pardon]” (Hebrews 9:22). “ But God commendeth His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” (Romans 5:8).
Although we cannot understand how, God said my sins and your sins were laid upon Jesus and He died in our place paying our sin debt before God the Father. He became our substitute. It is true. God cannot lie.
My friend, “God . . . commandeth all men everywhere to repent” (Acts 17:30).
This repentance is a change of mind that agrees with God that one is a sinner and agrees
with what Jesus did for us on the Cross. He shed His blood to pay for our sins.
He died and on the 3rd day arose and now sits at the right hand of God the Father.
In Acts 16:30-31, the Philippian jailer asked Paul and Silas: ‘Sirs, what must I do to be
saved? And they said, ‘Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved ”
Simply believe on Him as the one who bore your sin, Jesus died in your place, was buried, and whom God resurrected on the 3rd day. His resurrection powerfully assures that the believer can claim everlasting life when Jesus is received Him as your Savior. “
But as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His name” (John 1:12).
“For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13).
Whosoever includes you. “Shall be saved” means not maybe, nor can be, but shall be saved!
In Luke 18:13, the sinner prayed: “God be merciful to me a sinner.”
God’s Simple Plan of Salvation
Just believe and pray:
“Oh God, I have sinned against you, and I know that I am a sinner. I believe Jesus
was my substitute when He died on the Cross. I believe His shed blood, death,
burial, and resurrection were for me. I now receive Him as my Savior. I thank You
for the forgiveness of my sins, the gift of salvation and everlasting life, because
of Your merciful grace and love for me. Amen.”
Just take God at His word and claim His salvation by faith. Believe, and you will be saved. No church, no lodge, no good works can save you. Remember, God does the saving. All of it! God’s simple plan of salvation is: You are a sinner. Therefore, unless you believe on Jesus Who died in your place, you will spend eternity in Hell. If you believe in Him as your crucified, buried, and risen Savior, you receive forgiveness for all your sins and His gift of eternal salvation by faith is yours.
You say, “Surely, it cannot be that simple.” Yes, that simple! It is scriptural.
It is God’s plan. My friend, believe on Jesus and receive Him as Savior today.
If His plan is not perfectly clear, read this tract over and over, without laying it down, until you
understand it. Your soul is worth more than all the world. We are talking about eternity here.
“For what shall it proft a man, if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul?” (Mark 8:36).
Be sure you are saved. If you lose your soul, you miss Heaven and lose all. Please! Let God
save you this very moment. God’s power will save you, keep you saved, and enable you to live a victorious Christian life.
“There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, Who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it” (1 Corinthians 10:13).
Do not trust your feelings. They change. Stand on God’s promises. They never change. After you are saved, there are three things to practice daily for spiritual growth:
Pray — you talk to God. Read your Bible — God talks to you. Witness — you talk for God.
John 3:16 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.
Saved now what? You should be baptized in obedience to the Lord Jesus Christ as a public
testimony of your salvation, and then unite with a Bible-believing church without delay.
“Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord . . . .” (2 Timothy 1:8)
“Whosoever therefore shall confess [testify of] Me before men, him will I confess also
before My Father which is in heaven” (Matthew 10:32).
