The Bible says that there is only one way to get into the Kingdom of Heaven. Jesus said, “I am the way and the truth and the life; no one comes to the Father except through Me ”(John 14: 6).

Good deeds will not save you.

"For by grace you are saved through faith, and this is not from you, it is God's gift: not from works, so that no one can boast" (Ephesians 2: 8-9).

Steps

  1. 1 Trust Jesus Christ in everything! Here's what you should do:
  2. 2 Confess that you are a sinner.
    • “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23)
    • “Therefore, just as by one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, so death passed into all men, because in him all sinned.” (Romans 5:12)
    • “If we say that we have not sinned, then we represent Him as a liar, and His word is not in us” (1 John 1:10).
  3. 3 You must be willing to end sin (repent).
    • Jesus said, “No, I tell you, but if you don’t repent, you will all perish in the same way” (Luke 13: 5)
    • “So, leaving the times of ignorance, God is now commanding people everywhere to repent.” (Acts 17:30)
  4. 4 Believe that Jesus Christ died for you, was buried and resurrected.
    • “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have eternal life” (John 3:16)
    • “But God proves His love for us by the fact that Christ died for us when we were still sinners” (Romans 5: 8)
    • “For if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved” (Romans 10: 9)
  5. 5 Invite Jesus into your life through prayer to become your Savior.
    • “For with the heart they believe for righteousness, but with the mouth they confess for salvation” (Romans 10:10)
    • “For everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved” (Romans 10:13)
  6. 6 Pray:
    • Lord, I am a sinner and I yearn for forgiveness. I believe that Jesus Christ shed his precious blood and died for my sins. I want to stop sinning. I invite Christ into my heart and life as my Savior.
    • "And to those who received Him, to those who believe in His name, He gave authority to be children of God" (John 1:12)
    • “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has passed away, now everything is new. ”(2 Corinthians 5:17)
  7. 7 If you have accepted Jesus Christ as Savior, you as a Christian must:
  8. 8 Read the Bible every day to learn more about Christ. Read Scripture, a guide to kindness, righteousness, and eternal life.
    • “Seek to present yourself worthy to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly presenting the word of truth.” - 2 Timothy 2:15
    • “Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path” (Psalm 119: 105)
  9. 9 Turn to the Lord in prayer every day.
    • “And whatever you ask for in prayer in faith, you will receive” (Matthew 21:22)
    • “Do not be anxious about anything, but always in prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, reveal your desires to God.” (Philippians 4: 6)
  10. 10 Be baptized, exalt God, and serve other Christians in the church where Christ lives, and let the Bible be your primary guide in life.
    • “Go therefore, teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit” (Matthew 28:19)
    • “Let us not leave our meetings, as some have custom; but let us admonish one another, and all the more, the more you see the approach of that day ”(Hebrews 10:25)
    • “All Scripture is divinely inspired and useful for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness” (2 Timothy 3:16)
  11. 11 Tell others about Christ
    • “And he said to them, Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation” (Mark 16:15)
    • "For if I preach the gospel, then I have nothing to boast of, because this is my necessary duty, and woe to me if I do not preach the gospel!" (1 Corinthians 9:16)
    • "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, because it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, first, Judah, then Hellen" (Romans 1:16)

Method 1 of 1: Two Key Points

  1. 1 Learn more about Jesus Christ and believe that He died and rose from the dead as Savior, and pray for the forgiveness of the sins of one God, for example, as follows:

    "Father, Lord, I have changed and I do not want to sin anymore, denying everything unrighteous; everything is your will, and I thank you for everything that you have done, and for the fact that you forgave me and saved me from my sins; this is your gift me, you helped me find a new life. Thank you for this gift and for the fact that I now abide in the Holy Spirit in the name of Christ. "
  2. 2 Walk through life with love; tell others that “for each of us there is a mediator, Jesus Christ, the Son of God; he is God and Savior for everyone who believes, repents and follows him, abiding in the Holy Spirit ": * “Following Jesus Christ” means attending Christian meetings with people of your faith; to be baptized in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, taking on new life; pray to the Lord; read the Bible and express the love of God through good deeds, forgiving others, peace, faith, and good relationships with believers. "Don't live with feelings; do not judge other people and even yourself; live and walk through life in the Holy Spirit, with faith, hope and righteousness. Abide in the Holy Spirit and remember the words of Christ: “I will give them eternal life; and they will never perish; no one will leave My hand. " But when you (mentally) accuse yourself of sin, repent, ask the Lord for forgiveness, and expect punishment for your transgressions. Walk through life with the Son of God, in the name of Jesus Christ. God is one, he is the Judge of all good and evil. The Lord's love is perfect and rejects all fear.

Tips

  • Attend church meetings so you can learn more about Jesus Christ.
  • Go to church.
  • Communicate with other Christians.
  • Read a short Bible meditation daily.

Warnings

  • Do not look for easy ways to end evil and despair in our world, because death and pain will come anyway. But follow the path of the creator, the Lord, as you take the narrow paths of truth, reward, and eternal life.
  • "Everything is for the best": your final destination is already clear. This is Christ. But you must recognize your own mistakes, feel guilty, repent and ask for forgiveness. Do righteous deeds with friends, neighbors, or family. Life is continuous and no one is perfect. We all make mistakes, but we must not let wickedness rule over you.
