You Must Receive Jesus Christ by Faith

"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." (Romans 10:9)

Jesus died on the cross to pay for your sin, so that you could have eternal life (heaven). So, the logical question is, What must I do to receive the gift of eternal life?

First, you must stop depending on your own effort, good works, baptism, church membership or any other "good work." The Bible syas that salvation is received by faith in Jesus Christ alone, and not by good works!

"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast." (Ephesians 2:8-9)

What have you been depending on to get you to heaven?

Second, you must put your faith in Jesus Christ alone. Believing on Jesus Christ is transferring your trust from self-effort and good works to trusting Jesus Christ alone for salvation.

"For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." (Romans 10:10)

What do we all have in common? We all would like to go to heaven.

Do you believe that faith in Jesus Christ alone is the only way to heaven?
