My Favorite song
'Tis So Sweet to Trust in Jesus
1. 'Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus, Just to take Him at His word; Just to rest upon His promise,
Just to know "Thus saith the Lord!"
Refrain: Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him! How I've proved Him o'er and o'er Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus!
O for grace to trust Him more!
2. O how sweet to trust in Jesus, Just to trust His cleansing blood; Just in simple faith to plunge me 'Neath the healing, cleansing flood!
3. Yes 'tis sweet to trust in Jesus, Just from sin and self to cease;
Just from Jesus simply taking
Life and rest, and joy and peace.
4. I'm so glad I learned to trust Thee, Precious Jesus, Savior, friend; And I know that Thou art with me, Wilt be with me to the end.
My Favorite Verse
139:23 Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts:
139:24 And see if [there be any] wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.
How to be saved
God sees you and all men as being sinners. Romans 3:23 says, "For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God." Sin is the breaking of God's holy law (I John 3:4); Have you broken God's law? God says that you have.
God's justice requires Him to punish sin. Romans 6:23 says, "For the wages of sin is death." Because of your sin, you deserve to be separated from God for eternity and to suffer everlasting torment in the "lake of fire." (Revelation 20:15)
There is nothing that you can do yourself to change your standing before God. Romans 3:20 says, "Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin." This includes moral living, baptism, church membership, and etc.
But! Not only is God just and holy, he is loving and merciful too! Romans 5:8 says, "But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." Jesus Christ died on the cross to pay the penalty for your sin, so that you can be forgiven. HOLD ON! - There's one more thing:
You must now personally accept Jesus Christ as your Savior. Romans 10:9-10 say, "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." You need to, in your heart, believe in the death, burial, and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ, the eternal Son of God, and trust Him and Him alone to save you from your sin. If you do, pray and let the Lord know that you are now trusting Him as your Personal Savior. Pray something like this right now:
Lord, I know that I am a sinner: If I died today I would not go to heaven. I now turn to you, asking you to forgive my sin, come into my life, and be my Savior. Help me live for you from this day forward. In Jesus' name, Amen.
