The way to Heaven in 5 steps:


     1.            Admit that you are a sinner.  (Rom. 3:23).  You   
            are  separated from God. (Isaiah 59:2). The penalty for
            your sin, is eternal punishment – away from God.
            (2 Thess. 1:8-9)
2.            Realize that you need to be saved from sin.  Jesus said to Nicodemus, he had to be born again. (John 3:3).  You have to become a child of God – John 1:12.  You have to become a new person – 2 Cor. 5:17

3.            There is nothing that you can do to save yourself from sin.  Jesus alone can save you from your sinful life. (Acts 4:12)  You are saved by grace and not by good deeds – Ephesians 2:8-9

4.            Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved – this is what Paul told the Philippian jailor. Acts 16:31.  Believe that He died for your sins and that He took all your sins on the cross so that you can live. Because of His wounds you are healed. 1 Peter 2:24. 

5.            Accept the Lord Jesus Christ as your Saviour from sin.  Pray the prayer that the publican prayed in the temple:  “God be merciful to me a sinner”. Ask God to accept you as His child and ask Him to help you to be His child.  John 1:12. 

Write John 1:12 down and write your name in the place of “all” and “those”

Thank God for your salvation and the promise that you will be with God in Heaven after your death and have everlasting life.  (John 3:16)

Make Ephesians 1: 2 – 13 your prayer.
