Romans 10: 9That 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.

10For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

11For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.

12For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.

13For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

Romans 10:9-10 - John 3:16 and many others scripture will give you the answer.

To spell it out simply -- 1. Realize you are a sinner 2. Be sorry for your sin 3. Repent and ask God to forgive you
4. Receive by faith the gift of eternal life provided by Christ.

All the above must be heart belief - head belief will get you nothing but a spiritual delusion that will never satisfy you.

Here's the simple version.

You must believe that you are a sinner. That because you have sinned, you can not be close to God. Since God wants to be able to have a relationship with you, His creation, He sacrificed His only son Jesus Christ. If you believe in Jesus, that He the son of God and that He IS God in the flesh, and that He died to attone for YOUR sins (and mine :)) then you will be "saved."

Being saved doesn't mean life will be great, perfect, wealthy, or anything else like that. The Christian life is often one of sacrifice and persecution. It does mean that you will spend eternity with God.

if you have other questions, feel free to contact me by posting a comment on any entry of my blog (it sends me an anonymous email): http://reneejohnson.blogspot.com and i will respond to you :)

Believe in Christ. But most of all believe in His mercy. Think about it , He didn't go through all the pain and death NOT to forgive you. Come on people it is getting late in the game. Satan wants to use you then throw you away. In a former life satan used peoples pride in their intelligence to lure them and they fell for it. Now in this life he is doing it again. That means you fell for his crap twice. How intelligent is that? Pretty weenie right? The biggest mind control scam ever devised is satan's " mutual admiration society of braniacs".

The Right to Enter Paradise

Death is inevitable. The thief on the cross knew when his would occur, but we can not predict our own. After his death, the crucified criminal went to live in paradise with Jesus. Some of us will also live eternally in God's presence. But others will experience everlasting torment, forever separated from Him.
If we receive Jesus as our Savior, our penalty for sin is paid. We are adopted into God's family, and Heaven is our eternal home. If we reject Jesus, we remain alienated from the Lord and under condemnation for our sin. We are destined to experience eternal judgment. God won't accept any of man's excuses because there is no acceptable defense for unbelief. (Acts 4:12)
Become part of God's family today. Acknowledge your sinfulness, and express your faith in these words:
"God, I have sinned against You. (Romans 3:23) I've followed my own way and refused to give You the right to rule in my life. (Romans 3:10-12) I recognize I am separated from You and cannot rescue myself. I do believe that Jesus Christ is Your Son. I accept the truth of the Scriptures? that His death on the cross paid my sin-debt in full. (1 Corinthians 15:3-4) And I ask You to forgive me of my sins. (1 John 1:9) By faith, I receive You, Lord Jesus, as my personal Savior from this moment on."
If you just spoke those words to God, then, like the thief on the cross, you have received salvation? a gift of God's grace. The heavenly Father welcomes every person who comes to Him through His Son, regardless of background, age, or current situation. Through Jesus, the right to enter paradise is yours!

We lost eternal life when we rebelled purposely against God. We need to repent to Jesus for not believing in Him & His Gift to us, that He shed His Own blood for the remission of our sins. And confess with ones mouth Jesus Christ ones Lord & Savior & believe in ones heart, He raised from the dead. God looks at the honest heart.

Jesus said that you must be born again to see the Kingdom of God. Born of His Spirit, cleansed by His Blood, joint heirs with King Jesus, part of the the family of God (John3). Being born of His Spirit is everlasting life.

But we need to work out our salvation after receiving eternal life. That means what we build on the Rock foundation. When we build rooted in faith (trust & obey) hope, love, joy, peace, patience, the Word of God, etc... is eternal rewards from God.

Working out our salvation is obeying God today & choosing to follow after the Spirit, renewing our minds in the Word of God. The Spirit may direct us to go a different way sometimes so we won't be at the wrong place at the wrong time. So, God saves us from something everyday, if we choose to follow after the Spirit. The Spirit doesn't force us, we have to choose to obey.
